Zoho Writer's WordPress extensions

Hey Zoho Writer users!

 

Say goodbye to all your WordPress content publishing woes with Zoho Writer's WordPress extensions. Publish content with all your formatting and images, republish content when you update a document, and more—from a single window in Zoho Writer.

 

Before we dive into how to post your content to WordPress easily, here's a quick overview of the two types of WordPress blogs and their purposes.

WordPress.com	WordPress.org
Simple option for individuals to set up a blog for personal use	More complex option suited for organizations and professionals
Managed hosting is built-in	You must find and pay for a hosting provider yourself
Individuals can easily create blogs and post content	Admins need to add users to the self-hosted blog
Not dependent on any external plugin for posting content	Dependent on external plugins to set up and post content

Zoho Writer offers extensions for both types of WordPress blogs. You can install the extensions for WordPress and WordPress.org from Zoho Marketplace.
