If you are using WordPress to manage and run your own site, I want to share a few plugins that are not on the beaten track that can help you run a certain aspect of your Internet real estate.
Managing and displaying Testimonials
A great plugin we found this week is the Testimonial manager, a great way to manage and display your customer testimonials. The plugin comes with a huge range of display options so you can drop these things in anywhere.

Helpdesk
You can also now use WordPress to run a customer help desk facility. This could be a great way to set up an online way to manage customer enquiries in an easy and familiar environment. You could simply setup a seperate WordPress install on another sub directory called helpdesk or support.

Affiliate Programme
We also found an affiliate programme that you can use to run your own onsite affiliate programme using WordPress. This plugin has a great number of features but the main ones that we like is that it can be a two tier programme. The plugin works with lots of other plugins such as shopping carts and membership site plugins. YOU can also integrate this plugin to run a pay per lead campaign – which is great for finance and insurance sites.
