Step 2: Here you can browse through all Featured, Popular, and Favorites plugin directories. You can also use “search” option if you know the name of a plugin you want to install. And if you scroll down to the bottom of this page you can search for plugins with the help of “most popular tags“. Once you found plugin you wish to install you need to click on “Install Now” button.
