Perfect, especially Platinum SEO, that is better than All In One SEO. Everything else is a no brainer to use in your WordPress sites. Thanks for sharing.

I have heard of Super Cache and have thought about using it. Seeing the positive results on your sites I think I might give it a try with some of my sites.

I also use TinyMCE Advanced for my visual editor, specifically for font sizes and a few other things. I am glad the Thesis theme comes with all of the functionality of the All In One SEO Pack plugin.

@JEff: I feel like protection should be done on the server and through custom scripts, mostly. There’s some good plugins out there for hardening security, but those, I find, are targeted towards shared hosting.
