WordPress comes with a lot of tools to build a website, but expanding it with plugins can help customize your site to fit your needs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use plugins to add custom forms, widgets, search engine optimization (SEO) tools, or even change the editor that you use to create posts. There are plugins that allow you to accept charitable donations, sell digital products, and manage page caching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plugins are created by 3rd parties and you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/wordpress\/plugins\/create-a-wordpress-plugin\/\">create your own plugin<\/a> if you are a developer. For more information see our article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/wordpress\/plugins\/what-are-plugins-and-widgets\/\">What are Plugins and Widgets<\/a>.
