This will give you an advanced pagination to distribute your link-juice more evenly across your paginated paged. It also provides a better choice of navigation to the user to explore and find your content.
You can turn the pagination on/off separately for:
<ul>
<li>homepage</li>
<li>search results</li>
<li>category archives</li>
<li>date archives</li>
<li>tag archives</li>
<li>author archives</li>
</ul>
Or implement it directly into your theme using <code><?php the_wp_lopa('pages_below'); ?></code>.
You can also choose if you want it to be displayed before and/or after the loop content.
The plugin is currently available in English and German. If you want to help translate it, just write me an email. Help is much appreciated!

Logarithmic Pagination

This plugin inserts pagination to your blog, archives and search results based on logarithmic calculation for a more evenly distributed link-juice.

Custom Posts Per Page allows you to specify how many posts are displayed per page depending on your current view. Once settings are changed, the Blog pages show at most setting in the Reading menu will be ignored.
Settings are available for:
<ul>
<li>Home (Index) Page
<ul>
<li>As long as view is set to blog posts, not static page.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Category Pages</li>
<li>Tag Pages</li>
<li>Author Pages</li>
<li>Archive Pages</li>
<li>Search Pages</li>
<li>Default Page (Any page not covered above.)</li>
<li>Custom Post Type archive pages
<ul>
<li>All Custom Post Types are detected automatically.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Each of the above settings can have a different value for the first page displayed and subsequent paged views.
Custom Posts Per Page makes it easy to manage exactly how your content is displayed to your readers, especially when different views have different layouts, rather than relying on the single setting in the Reading menu or having to hard code options in your custom theme.

Saved a lot of time and is a great addition

Custom Posts Per Page provides a settings page in your WordPress admin that allows you to specify how many posts are displayed for different views.
