Word Press Plugins.

The blog your reading is hosted on the WordPress platform and capably hosted by the fine folks at HostRail.

The other day I had bookmarked a site about WordPress Plugins, and decided to take a closer look at it this afternoon. The site, 13 Best WordPress SEO Plugins Every Blog Should Have appears interesting which is why I decided to take another look at it.

Now as I’m looking at it a bit more closely, I’m wondering if I really need everything the article says I need for this and the other two WordPress sites I have. The article by it’s title indicates I need all 13 plugins, and yet to me that seems to be a bit of overkill and duplication of SEO effort.

I wonder, is SEO that disjointed that a web site needs 13 different tools to accomplish essentially the same function and result?
