7. Use the Tools WordPress Gives You
One of WordPress’s best features is its customization, many of which allow you to bypass the need for a plugin. For example, if your web design includes only pages and you don’t want comments, no plugin is needed. While Akismet is tempting and great for those who want visitors to comment on their pages, blog posts, and images – those who don’t plan to do not need it. They can simply go to All Pages on the WordPress Admin Dashboard, find the pages they don’t want comments on, hit Quick Edit, and not allow comments by checking the appropriate box.
