In the previous chapter, we learned to deploy our site to Netlify and also add a contact form. In this chapter, we’ll add some Gatsby plug-ins to my newly created personal blog site (https://thewebdev.tech/). I have found a great article by Emeruche Cole (see https://dev.to/cole_ruche/my-top-plugins-for-a-gatsbyjs-powered-blog-1oo1) on the same. We’ll begin by adding two search engine optimization (SEO) plug-ins.
