Not on WordPress?

If your site runs on a hosted platform or a newsroom CMS from a vendor, ask your platform provider about connecting the BlinkHub news API so stories come in automatically — you can share the API documentation with them. Or consider moving your site to BlinkHub: we handle publishing, mobile and search visibility, and move your existing articles and images.

Developers: the full reference is in the API documentation. Need more than 100 articles a month or an organisation-wide licence? Email connect@blinkhub.net.
