    The more plugins you install, the slower your site will be. Just use the must haves and don't get carried away. All the seo in the world won't help you, if your site is too slow to load.

    I suggest you take the advice of Alex as it is the truth. If you start installing a lot of WP plugins, it will eat up your site resources. Pick and choose only one SEO plugin if you feel you must have one. I have one site that has something like 17 plugins installed on it and it's constantly pegging out my resources. But, I had built the site before I knew this information and now I can't really uninstall those plugins without drastically changing up my site and what I wanted it to do.

      I really like the related post plugin (YARPP) to get more internal linking on my site. But it is a total resource hog... so yes, I agree, try to limit your plugin use.

      Another benefit of less plugins... is less security holes.

    Install ALL IN ONE SEO PLUGIN that is all you need. You should know how to SEO your post when you make post on the blog. The more plugins you install the slower your blog will become and the greater chance of being hacked.
