Are You Using Safe Wordpress Plugins ?

Most bloggers prefer using Wordpress because its plugins makes it easily customizable. Non technical users end up installing tons and tons of plugins out of curiosity for trying them and eventually they forget to deactivate them. Some these plugins are resource hungry and they will effect your pageload speed, so Ajay and Everton teamed up together to build a list of safe and non-safe wordpress plugins. Here’s an excerpt:

Plugins At Risk:

Plugins That Are Probably Safe:

This really makes some sense because some plugins insert some code into template or they may also perform database queries which will result in slower pageloads. So next time if your thinking of installing a plugin, ask yourself if you really need it.

Update: Safe does not necessarily mean security, I’m talking interms of speed.

  • I had the WP-PageNavi plugin. I think that was one of my problem. Thanks.
  • Good to know that i dont have any of the unsafe plugins installed. Thanks for the tip though
  • I think it's tough to guarantee any level of security with such an open source environment as plugins. I pretty much use them at my own risk.
  • I think all wp plugins should have to undergo a strict security analysis before being released to the public, I know I check the security of all plugins i use before use.
  • Thx for the tip .I will check it out now
