- There are a lot of plugins out there,
and as a marketer,
you know that there's so many to choose from.
Some do the same things,
some may not work with other plugins.
Which ones should you use to make sure
that you're getting more traffic and more sales?
Hi everyone, I'm Neil Patel,
and today I'm going to go over the
Ultimate WordPress Marketing Setup:
Seven Advanced Plugins to Catapult Your Traffic and Sales.
(upbeat music)
Before we get started,
make sure you subscribe to this channel.
That way, when I release more videos,
you'll get notified.
And if you're on YouTube, click the alert notification.
The first plugin, Calculated Fields Form.
It's one of the easiest ways to create a tool
on your website.
Tools attract backlinks, visitors, search rankings.
Just look at Ubersuggest.
It's one of the most linked to sections
of the Neil Patel site.
Why? Because it's a tool.
People love free tools.
Whether it's calculators for finance,
mortgage calculators, nutrition calculators,
health calculators, A/B testing calculators,
heck I even have that on neilpatel.com.
That's worked well too.
Car rental calculators, quote generators,
all this kind of stuff helps really well.
The next plugin I have for you is Title Experiments.
It allows you to test click the rates
of different title variations of your post.
Remember, eight out of ten people will read your headline,
but only two out of ten will click through
and read the rest.
It's all about your headline.
So when you're creating a blog post
I want you to come up with at least five variations
and start testing them.
And you can do so through this plug-in.
Because the more clicks you get,
the higher your rankings will be.
For example, if everyone did a Google search
and clicked on the number two listing
instead of the number one listing,
what would that tell Google?
Oh, the number two listing is more relevant.
It doesn't matter if the number one
has more backlinks or is better optimized for SEO.
Google will put the number two listing
and make it number one.
And that's what you can do
by using this plugin to optimize your title tag.
The third plugin, Gravity Forms.
You want a qualified lease for a business, right?
I do this at neilpatel.com with a multiple step form.
Multiple step form reduces friction
and increases conversion rates.
Usually by 10 plus percent.
Gravity Forms allows you to build multi-step forms,
pulls, quizzes, and surveys.
It's super effective.
The next plugin, WP Mail SMTP.
It's configured with SendGrid's SMTP.
It makes sure that your emails hit customer's inboxes.
If you're selling anything through your WordPress site,
you usually are sending out emails.
And you'll find that they'll go into the promotions tab,
or spam tabs.
If you're not using SMTP service,
that's what's going to happen.
You don't want your emails to go into the spam box.
SendGrid offers 100 free emails a day,
and if you use this plugin it's a great way to make sure
that your emails hit the inbox.
The next plugin, the Yoast SEO plugin.
I could go into this one but it's pretty self-explanatory.
It does everything that you need,
from keynote mark-up, to title tags, meta tags,
to creating a site map for you
that you submit to Google search console.
It does most of the stuff you need.
Next plugin, Broken Link Checker.
This monitors links on your entire website.
It detects broken links and missing images.
It prevents search engines from following broken links.
You can then use this plugin to quickly edit
and fix the broken links.
Creates a better user experience,
and it should help with your rankings in the long run.
Another plugin that I love is a RafflePress plugin.
It allows you to host giveaways on your website.
This helps with virality, right.
Because you can do things, like when you do a giveaway,
you can get more votes through social voting.
So you can integrate social media sites,
and the more people share the more votes they get.
It also has email integration,
so you can send out email blasts
and encourage more people to enter in the contest
and giveaways.
It also has tracking and retargeting and all this stuff
built into this one plugin.
