You’ve got your new website up and running and now it’s time to install plugins. As a long-time developer, I’m always asked: Which are the best WordPress plugins?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the optimal tools, eCommerce extensions, page builders, booking addons, galleries, and backup plugins? And what about the GDPR compliance of plugins for WordPress?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All these questions are answered by my list of recommendations for WordPress plugins, which belong to the absolute must-haves. With many explanations and nicely sorted by application on your website or blog for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Fewer plugins are the best choice for your website<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each of your WordPress plugins adds not only functionality to the website but also additional code. And this code is also very often loaded on every single page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more code is loaded, the slower your page will become over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s why I strongly recommend you to think carefully about which WordPress plugins you need and which ones you don’t. Many small things can often be solved without an extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip:<\/strong>
By the way, deactivated plugins also have an impact on your website performance. Usually, there is still data of them in your database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s best to delete WordPress plugins you no longer need directly instead of keeping them disabled.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
