A contact form is one of the most essential features every blog should not be without. If you’ve done any searching for contact form plugins, no doubt you’ve found several. There are many great contact form plugins out there ranging from the super simple, to the insanely feature rich. Well, I needed something inbetween. That why I use the Secure and Accessible PHP Contact Form v.2.0WP for Wordpress by Mike Jolley and Mike Cherim.

Please don’t get me wrong, this contact form plugin has features galore, but the way the configuration, styling, and documentation are presented is clear, concise, and leaves me feeling like I’m an expert with their form after spending only a few minutes using it.
