Things to note before installing a plugin:
1. Last date Updated: How recent?
2. Its compatibility with your version of WordPress.
3. Don't install as many as possible. Keep them at a minimal and updated as always (3 months at least).
The ability to search for a required and needed featured plugin among thousands of different plugins is always stressful. To this i am sharing the few i have come across; the much needed and reliable ones.
1. AKISMET: This plugin comes automatically with WordPress installation. It is used to protect your Blog from Spam.

2. WP Limit Login Attempts: This plugin is used to prevent and frustrate hackers. It is used to set limit to the number of times an intruder tries to attempt signing in to your WordPress admin page.
