Great Resources For WordPress Users

WordPress has an active global community of plugin, theme, and product developers who are always looking for ways to improve the experience and results of WordPress users everywhere.

Additionally, many software developers create tools and services that WordPress users can integrate with their online marketing strategies to automate processes that can improve search rankings, drive more traffic to their sites, generate more leads, and help get more sales.

In this WordPress Roundup, we look at a plugin that lets you find and add relevant WordPress tags to posts, a web-based software that creates high-converting video background landing pages, a WordPress plugin that automates social marketing campaigns, a cloud-based application that lets you create info products such as reports and lead magnets in minutes, and more.

Here are some of the latest products creating a buzz with WordPress users:

WP Tag Machine

(WP Tag Machine)

Adding relevant tags to your posts can help your website rank higher and should be done as a regular habit when creating new posts. Finding relevant post tags, however, can take a little time and effort.

WP Tag Machine is a simple, yet powerful SEO plugin for WordPress that will help you improve Google rankings using post tags and instantly add tags to your posts with just a few mouse clicks. Used wisely, this plugin can be a very powerful SEO tool.

Landing Page Monkey

(LandingPage Monkey – Landing Page Creation Software)

A proven way to capture new leads and subscribers is to build a list using a high converting landing page.

Creating a good looking landing page that converts well, however, takes time. It requires designing the page and then tweaking it to improve conversions. Hiring web coders, web designers, and web marketers to create landing pages that convert well is expensive, especially if you plan to build multiple lists using multiple landing pages.

Many landing page creation services produce unattractive or outdated-looking pages, or tend to be restrictive or complicated to use.

Landing Page Monkey is a web-based software that lets you build high-converting, very attractive and professional looking landing pages with a few clicks of the mouse.

(Create attractive, high-converting video background landing pages)

Landing Page Monkey lets you create great looking landing pages quickly and easily using a background color, background image, or background video …

Your LandingPage Monkey dashboard lets you track conversions and monitor the performance of your landing pages and perform additional tasks like cloning, editing, resetting and deleting campaigns, copy landing page codes to your clipboard, import, export, and more …

• See which pages perform best, and maximize conversions and ROI using built-in tracking and statistical tools.
• Edit your landing pages live with no downtime.

After purchase, you get instant access to a web-based dashboard where you can start creating landing pages in just minutes using point-and-click.

With LandingPage Monkey, you can easily build:

Instant Product Lab

(InstantProductLab)

A great incentive to get people to subscribe to your list is to offer something of value like a guide or report. Creating quality info products, reports, and lead magnets, however, can be time-consuming.

Instant Product Lab is a cloud-based software that lets you create info products in minutes using point-and-click.

While there are many e-book creators in the market, this tool is very simple and easy-to-use. No technical or design skills are required and there is nothing to install or update. Instant Product Lab is hosted in the cloud, so you can access this tool from anywhere.
