In This Episode: The Weather, Popular Plesk Extensions, SEO and More
If you’re unfamiliar with Plesk extensions, you’re probably wondering what Lighthouse Extensions are. To clarify, Joe and Jan dive right into the specifics, after updating us on the weather of course.
In general, Plesk’s extensions provide extra tools, features and services to users. Their purpose is to enhance the ways in which users work and interact with websites. In particular, they serve a useful role when dealing with specific website areas, such as SEO. So, the SEO Toolkit extension can help users in designing an SEO strategy for better visibility on search engines.
“Usually it’s like running a marathon. If you want to run a marathon, you don’t do it in one day. It needs consistent training and working towards this goal. The same is true for getting on the first page of Google.”, says Jan.
Well Jan, we hope that soon you’ll be able to run a marathon once more after this lockdown is over. We will cheer for you!

Key Takeaways
- What are Lighthouse Extensions? There are over 130 extensions in the Plesk Extensions catalog. The Lighthouse Extensions are the most popular among users.
- Why are the Speed Kit and SEO Toolkit extensions important? As soon as you start selling something on your website, performance matters. If a website takes more than 3 seconds to load, many users will leave. Speed Kit analyzes your site and knows how to cache it. The SEO Toolkit gives you stats to narrow down the areas where your website performance can improve. It supports all major search engines: Google, Bing, Baidu, Yahoo, and so on.
- How can users get started with Lighthouse Extensions? Some are pre-installed when you spin up a new Plesk server. And the Extensions catalog gives insights into the most popular extensions. Additionally, there’s an Advisor tool that helps users become more productive. It guides you along the value chain and recommends tools you can enable to get the best out of each step.
