Honestly, they are all good but I am with Joost on this vote.

Yes it’s the one plugin I would not leave home without.

I’m surprised Headpace 2 wasn’t on there. I love that tool.

Dar Adam Maywald, there are a lot of SEO plugins, but I think they select the top from this category.

And yes, in my opinion “All in One SEO Pack” is the king at this moment

All-in-One is certainly the best overall package, but the others server different purposes and are very good at what they do. They almost deserve to be in different categories.

Dang, so I guess I “should” use this…

It’s sad a DoFollow plugin is needed. That should be an optional field in Wordpress.

Yeah you cant fault any of them tools both Joost’s Meta Robots Plugin and the All in One SEO Pack Plugin are fantastic

I’m currently investigating SEO plugins for our editorial teams wordpress blog…how did netconcepts SEO plugin fair on this poll? as it offers the capibility to edit category tags effectively optomising category specific pages which i don’t seem to be able to do with All in one? Net concepts plugin is here…http://www.netconcepts.com/seo-title-tag-plugin/

SEO optimization is for the purpose of getting more readers. Seems like the medium is pretty competitive resulting in relatively low ROI.

Are there any awards for content linking widgets like Arkayne?

I ask because I’ve used it and my ranking as well as my user base have improved much more than SEO alone.

Thank you very much, to you running this poll and of course to all who voted, and to all who are using it daily. I’m really honored. I will continue to give as much love to the All in One SEO Pack as possible. It’ll be one year on March 24th.

@Paul: This arkayne thing looks promising, I will try some things with it and hope it works well.

I didn’t find the all in one SEO pack very useful. I guess if you know what you’re doing it’s not needed.
