Integrations
Connect the blog you already have
Bloomtack needs your posts, not a new platform. Pick the connection that fits where your blog lives. New posts then reach Bloomtack on their own, and pins follow.
Ways to connect
-
WordPress plugin
The most complete option. The Bloomtack Connector plugin sends each post the moment you publish or update it, with the heading outline and your SEO plugin’s focus keyword.
-
RSS feeds and sitemaps
For any platform that publishes a feed or a sitemap. Both are checked every hour, and a sitemap also brings in your whole archive.
-
Shopify
Your Shopify blog through its feed, plus your products, so new products can become pin drafts too.
-
Ghost
Ghost publications connect through the RSS feed every Ghost site has, with no code to add.
-
CSV import
Upload a list of post URLs to bring in exactly the posts you choose, from any site.
What each connection brings in
More detail means better pins: headings become infographic items, and a focus keyword makes titles searchable. Where a source can’t provide something, you can add it by hand on the Content screen.
| Connection | New posts arrive | Headings | Focus keyword | Images |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WordPress plugin | On publish and update | H2 and H3 | From your SEO plugin | Featured and in-post |
| RSS feed | Checked every hour | Read from the page | Add by hand | Feed images |
| Sitemap | Checked every hour | Read from the page | Add by hand | From the page |
| Shopify | Through the blog feed | Read from the page | Add by hand | Posts and products |
| Ghost | Through the RSS feed | Read from the page | Add by hand | Feature images |
| CSV import | When you upload | Read from the page | Add by hand | From the page |
How pages are read
For every connection except the WordPress plugin, Bloomtack reads your post pages with its crawler, BloomtackBot. It visits only blogs whose owners connected them, reads robots.txt first, and fetches at most one page per second from your site.
From each page it takes the readable article, the Open Graph tags and the headings. About BloomtackBot.
After your posts arrive
Each new post gets pin designs in your brand, with titles and descriptions, and lands in your review queue. Nothing is posted until you approve it. See the whole flow.
