Hello.
I hope that I'm posting in the right section if not any moderator can feel free to move it to the appropriate place or delete the thread.

OK, so here's what I need help with.
A friend of mine asked me to help him create a really simple website for his business. Basically what the site contains is the main page with some info then there is About Us, Contacts, Products(note his a wholesaler so the products are basically just few pictures with prices) and I'll probably add a "transportation/delivery" or something like that. I'll be adding it for the sake to throw in few more keywords in there.

Note: The site isn't in English.

My questions is what plugins would you recommend. Was thinking of putting Yoast, but honestly I don't see any point. As I said there won't be much stuff on the site and once the site is built there won't be any new content added to it, so I don't really see much point in adding that plugin instead I feel that adding the "All in one SEO pack" is better since it adds AMP, image XML submits and few other stuff that seem quite useful for such sites. Maybe Yoast also have those, but I didn't find in the "short version" of the description or maybe I overlooked it.

Apart from that is there any other plugin that you think it's worthwhile adding? Also what type of simple SEO can I do apart from just writing a couple of articles in the about us and products pages?
Do you think it's worth adding a "blog" as well and have him write occasionally articles for his products? Would that have any SEO effect or it's just a waste of time?

Any suggestions are welcomed.

Regards,

I would suggest Yoast as it is really helpful for the further SEO of the website. Regarding blog, yest, that would be great if you will add it. It will be best for the further SEO ranking of the website. For digital marketing of the website, blog posting will be helpful. You can add those blog links regularly on the social media to get more visitors and traffic on the website.
 
Thank for the suggestions guys :)
 
Yoast is what i also suggest. also blog is something you must have and post atleat once a week, have related content and target more keywords on it as you can have all content and images, hence chances are it will rank better. Also you can install Hello bar to increase his conversion rate.

yeah, I agree with you. Yoast is the best one.
 
Get a plugin to compress the images. This really helps to boast the site speed.
 
I would add ShortPixel for image compression and WP Fastest Cache for caching
 
Thanks will add a compression plugin(probably what Disloyal suggested) and WP Fastest Cache for caching. Completely overlooked something so simple, yet so important. Cheers!
