You can easily create an interactive social network site, loaded with all kinds of features that you would see on existing ones.

To build a social network yourself, there are only really four WordPress plugins that you need to consider. They’re easy to use, can be set up in no time, and are awesome!

BuddyPress

The BuddyPress plugin has been referred to as “social networking in a box” and that’s an apt description. There are a host of core features that you can build into your WordPress social networking website. Each of these can be turned on or off whenever you like, giving you full control over your site. Take a look:

Users can create their own profiles
Users can then start making friendships with other users and form specific groups
Groups can see their own activity streams
Users can private message each other
It’s easy to set what notifications and email settings you receive

BuddyPress Can Do A Lot…

With the BuddyPress plugin, you can build just about any kind of social network that you dream of. For instance, you might want to build one for football fans, cricket lovers, bird watchers, or church members.

Your members will be able to contact each other and network, plus they will get the latest updates of all that is happening in the community you’ve built.
