1. Tawk.to

For individual entrepreneurs, providing real-time online chat services is not easy. But the Tawk.to plugin can help you easily implement it. It is a free messaging app that allows you to communicate with website visitors in real time. You can add a custom chat window to the specified page of the website. After clicking, visitors need to enter their name and email address to start chatting.

You can monitor chats through WordPress backend, Tawk.to website or mobile application, set message reminders, and communicate with visitors anytime, anywhere. When offline, the system will automatically display offline messages, and visitors can still leave messages.

Tawk.to also provides real-time visitor data and customer service metrics such as engagement, availability, and positive sentiment to help you improve customer service levels, and is completely free.

2. Sumo

Sumo is like the Swiss Army Knife in the marketing field, perfect for individual entrepreneurs who lack technical skills.

Sumo provides a wealth of marketing tools to improve website professionalism and increase conversion rate.

The heat map function intuitively displays the click and scrolling behavior of visitors, helping you analyze the content effect.

The exit intention pop-up window can pop up when the visitor leaves the page, providing coupons or high-quality content to improve conversion rates. Sumo provides numerous marketing tools that allow you to have professional marketing capabilities without having to form a large marketing team.

3. MailChimp for WordPress

Automation is crucial for individual entrepreneurs. The MailChimp plug-in is automated through interactive mail chains. For example, when a customer subscribes to email or requests a quote, the system will automatically send welcome emails or message requests, without manual intervention, improving efficiency.

This plug-in connects to WordPress website and MailChimp account, supports custom subscription forms, including button size, background color and text size, etc., making it easy to use.

4. Beaver Builder

Beaver Builder is a one-time paid WordPress page builder plugin designed for non-technical people.

It is compatible with various themes, supports drag-and-drop operations, and creates beautiful and responsive websites without code.

You can directly create and adjust the website section on the front end and add text boxes, pictures, videos and other modules.

5. Broken Link Checker

Broken Link Checker plugin is not as cool as other plugins, but it is equally important. It can actively detect dead links, redirect links or missing images on the website, and maintain the professional image of the website.

You can set detection frequency and notification methods to fix problems in a timely manner and improve user experience.

6. IFTTT

IFTTT (If This Then That) allows you to create powerful triggers and actions to automate the workflow of your WordPress website.

The IFTTT Bridge for WordPress plugin can display the data that IFTTT automated processes directly on your WordPress website, or connect your WordPress website and IFTTT account to create hundreds of automated processes.

For example, you can use IFTTT to automate your marketing efforts, share new articles to social media, back up WordPress articles to the cloud, create editing calendars, send articles to the notes app, and more.
