Most people are aware of what plugins are and know how to efficiently use them to their advantage. However, for those who may need a little bit of explaining, plugins are tools that extend the functionality that WordPress offers.

We have seen iAcquire being banned by Google recently. Running a site command in Google (site:www.iacquire.com) does not yield any results so one is sure that the site has been de-indexed from Google results.
