Plugins You Gotta Have

You know, I’m all for list building from my blog, but something in this theme won’t allow me to customize my AWeber form. I tried everything from shortening the name and address boxes to moving everything left, and on and on, and it still came up all FUBAR. You know?
Zo…
I used the pop-up for a while, but it was annoying, even to me! Everytime I tried to check the page, the dam-ned pop-up was there driving me nuts.
And zo…
One of my friends, Charles Burleigh from StayHomeDads.com to be exact, sent his list (which I’m on) a message about pinging and how with WordPress’s auto ping feature it pings every time you make a change to your blog. Well, we certainly don’t want to upset the Ghods of Pingdom and cause our blogs to be banned from the services.
Charles recommended Ping Optimizer from MaxBlogPress. It stops your blog from pinging more than once for each new post. Cool.
But then, I found that MaxBlogPress has more great plugins…
Notice my pop-up? There isn’t one, unless this is the 3rd time you’ve come to my blog. It will show you this cool lightbox pop up for my newsletter a time or two and then, you won’t see it again. It’s very neat. Also from MaxBlogPress, it’s called Unblockable Popup. Fan-freakin-tastic. I love it.
But…
Then…
I found the other one. See that little note at the top of the screen? It’s unobtrusive, right? Well, it rotates different text ads. I have one for HostGator running and one for AWeber, both services I stand behind completely. They rock! I also have an ad for my membership site up there, Blogging4Boomers. (I haven’t formally launched the site, but I’m proud to say that the members I have truly love it.)
Anyway, the pop up is called MaxBlogPress Stripe Ads .
And they have several others. This post is getting kind of long, so I won’t describe them all, but you have to check these out. All of them ROCK OUT LOUD!
Go to MaxBlogPress’s Home Page via this link, oh, and guess what? All these popups are F-R-E-E!
