Here are the Plug-ins from Module#1:-

Akismet – Akismet checks your comments against the Akismet web service to see if they look like spam or not.

This is already installed but you need a WordPress.com API key to activate it. Just follow the instructions to get one. Well worth the effort. Since starting the ANC blog Akismet has protected our site from over 2,500 spam comments already!

What’s in it?

One page landers!

Proactive Navigation Menus

• Link up your menus how you want, not how WordPress dictates, you decide the order, the size, get total control.

Multi-page Site Construction

• Create a site with real depth that the search engines and your customers will love. Demo here

• Learn how to do it effectively and naturally.

Sit back and put your feet up.
