Is it 1995?
No? Well, then nobody will like a dull (static) blog! So, let's make your blog a little bit intelligent!
By dynamic, I do not mean flashing scrolling text or anything like that! In fact, you should avoid that kind of "dynamic" blog!
In this post, I am covering 5 plugins that will help you control content and display it only when needed.
Here we go:
-
Widget Logic: This plugin lets you control the widgets using WordPress's conditional tags. If you know basic PHP (or won't mind reading about them for 5 minutes at Codex), this plugin is for you.
For example, you might want to display a snippet of text above the series of posts, but only on the main page of your blog." Download -
Widget Block: This plugin lets you create customized widgets that are displayed(or not displayed) only on pages of your choice.
Create widgets that only display on specified pages." Download -
Referrer Detector: Lets you display a customized message to new visitors based on referring website.e.g. you may want to ask Del.icio.us users to bookmark your post." Download
-
Ozh' Who Sees Ads: This is an advanced ad management plugin that gives you complete control of ads. You can specify who will see ads (new visitors, search engine visitors etc.). All this is down through easy to use backend. You will need to insert either a PHP snippet in template or HTML comment in individual posts to display ads.For instance, you could consider the following criteria: Is the visitor a regular reader? Does this visitor come from a search engine? Is the visitor currently reading an old post, or something fresh?" Download
-
Search Ads: Let's you easily display ads only to search engine traffic. You can even specify the search engines for which to display ads. This is much lighter and simpler than Who Sees Ads.First of all you will be able to add another revenue stream to your site, as organic traffic tends to yield a very high CTR. Secondly, you won’t annoy your regular visitors" Download

Awesome job!
I only use a few plugins in hope that my site will be faster to load. Too many plugins can drag a site, making it slow. If I don't think I really need a plugin, I won't install it.
Nice list. I wonder how the referral plugin works with caching. I mean, if I have my page cached, the text will not change, but if I leave it uncached I risk to go down (If I am featured somewhere).
Thanks for the helpful and greatly apprecitaed site!
Who Seez Ads – This sounds really interesting – Need to try this one out! One question what kind of ads can u place with this plugin – 125X125 or something else
Cheers

Any size! You are not limited by size. All you need is the code for ad.
Yeah, these are nice list of awesome plugins. I have installed a plugin called "wibiya toolbar" on my blog. It's a cool plugin too, an advanced navigation tool.
Thanks for comments and recommendation. I will check this plugin.
Wow. This is cool, man! I sometimes have less concern on these widget things! But now I realized I have to pay more attention to these intelligent widgets!
Thanks a lot, pal!
Hope these plugins helped you. Let me know if you encounter any problems. Thanks for compliment.
these plugins are working good
Hey Mr. I, Great post, I like the style of it as well. Although I would think about a different placement or size for the adblock. The size and shape clashes with the content.
I was experimenting with layout. I have removed the blog now.
I just love this site – I always learn something new! Thank you!
Thanks for the compliment.
Some nice plugins you have listed, it makes it easier for the user to make sure only certain widgets appear on certain pages/posts.
