Article Distribution is a content syndication tool for founders and technical bloggers. You connect one source of truth: your blog RSS feed, a single article URL or its raw text, or a YouTube channel. Every 15 minutes it checks for new content, rewrites it with AI for each destination format and tone, and publishes to 41 platforms with rel=canonical where the platform supports it and a single attribution line where it does not, so search engines keep crediting your site. The dashboard tracks Ahrefs Domain Rating and a daily AI citation count, so you can watch the footprint rather than guess at it. It does not guarantee rankings, and anything that claims to is selling fiction.
Three steps. Live in five minutes.
Paste your blog's RSS URL (Substack, Ghost, WordPress, custom), a single article link or its text, or a YouTube channel whose new videos become articles from their transcripts. Your content stays the source of truth.
Connect LinkedIn, Dev.to, WordPress, and more. OAuth where supported, API keys where required. Everything here is included in Pro Mini.
New posts are detected within 15 minutes, rewritten by AI for each platform's tone and format, and published with canonical URLs pointing back to your blog.
Click any tile for post format details and Google Search previews: web results, YouTube rich cards, LinkedIn snippets, AI Overviews, and more.
Naive cross-posting hurts your rank. Supported destinations get rel=canonical or a single attribution footer, never keyword-stuffed duplicate links. Your site keeps the rank; syndicated copies bring readers.
Dev.to wants tags and code fences. LinkedIn wants a hook and a CTA. Our AI rewrites your article for each platform's format before it goes out: same ideas, native voice.
Every post ships schema.org markup and an llms.txt for your domain. Daily Gemini Google Search grounding probes your brand and article keyphrases, same pattern as Domain Rating.
Same facts, different format. Pasting identical text into three places reads wrong in at least two of them, and gives Google three identical pages instead of one source and two derivatives.
The full article, your headline, your formatting. Every syndicated copy points back here.
Tags picked from the content, code fenced properly, front matter set, and the native canonical_url field pointing at your post.
A hook in the first three lines, because that is all the feed shows before the More link, the argument compressed, and one attribution link to the full piece.
Three indexed URLs, one canonical source holding the SEO value.
Search in 2026 is two games: traditional rankings and AI-generated answers. Article Distribution improves your odds in both by multiplying where your content lives.
Every wire adds a public URL on a domain Google already crawls: Dev.to, LinkedIn, forums, Google Docs, YouTube. Article Distribution sets rel=canonical (or a single attribution line) so rank stays on your blog while syndicated copies build backlinks and long-tail entry points. We track Domain Rating daily so you can see authority compound, rather than guess.
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the new layer: can ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity find and cite you? Article Distribution ships schema.org markup, llms.txt, and daily Gemini Google Search grounding probes on your brand plus recent article keyphrases, giving you an AI citation score on your dashboard. We measure it; we don't guarantee placement.
Google Ads and ChatGPT ads rent attention for a budget. Syndication builds durable presence: one article becomes many indexed touchpoints that keep working after you publish. Article Distribution is organic infrastructure, not an ad replacement.

Trends are indicative: syndication, SEO, and search algorithms all play a role.
They solve different problems, and the honest answer is often both. The Postiz column describes what that tool publicly positions itself as doing. We have not benchmarked it.
| Postiz | Article Distribution | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Scheduling social posts | Syndicating long-form articles, plus YouTube to article |
| Input | A post you write, or RSS turned into social blurbs | RSS feed, a single article URL or its text, or a YouTube channel |
| SEO protection | Not what it is for | Native rel=canonical where supported, one attribution footer elsewhere |
| AI rewriting | Short social copy | Per-platform rewrite: tags and code fences for Dev.to, a hook for LinkedIn |
| What it tracks | Likes and engagement | Ahrefs Domain Rating and a daily AI citation count |
| Best for | A daily posting queue | Making the writing you already do travel further |
If you need a social queue, use a social scheduler. If you need the blog you already write to travel, that is this.
Yes, with a different focus. Postiz schedules social posts; Article Distribution syndicates your long-form articles from your blog's RSS feed to Dev.to, Hashnode, LinkedIn, WordPress, Medium and 20+ more, rewriting each version with AI and setting canonical URLs so the SEO stays on your site. If your goal is growing organic reach and AI visibility from the content you already write, it's the SEO-safe alternative.
We protect your source site: Dev.to, Hashnode, and Ghost get native rel=canonical; self-hosted WordPress gets Yoast/Rank Math canonical meta when installed; other platforms get one short attribution footer, not multiple keyword links in the body. AI rewrites each version for the platform so Google treats syndicated copies as derivatives, not duplicate spam.
We use a Chrome browser agent, not a fake API. Install our extension once, sign into Medium or Substack in Chrome, and Article Distribution queues rewrites in the cloud while your local agent publishes in the background.
Pro Mini ($5/mo, 7-day trial) includes Dev.to, LinkedIn, WordPress, Bluesky, Mastodon, and the rest of our live wire list. Some destinations need their own paid plan on top: Ghost(Pro), Hashnode Pro, and X API access are all billed separately by those platforms.
Only if you want fully automatic X posts. Connect your own X developer credentials and Article Distribution publishes for you. Everyone else gets a one-click Open in X compose link on every article.
Yes. Add as many RSS feeds as you need. Per source, set ingest filters (categories, authors, keywords), route to specific destinations, and use Test run to preview a post before going live.
All three work. Paste one article's URL (we fetch and extract it) or paste the text directly, and it distributes like any feed item. Or add a YouTube channel: each new video's transcript becomes an article that publishes across your platforms, with optional auto-generated clips.
Yes. New articles sit in a review window (60 minutes by default). Set it to zero for auto-publish or extend it in Settings.
beehiiv and Buttondown destinations push the article to your subscriber list at publish time.
No, and anyone who guarantees rankings is selling fiction. We improve your odds with canonical-safe syndication, schema.org markup, and more indexed copies on high-trust domains, and we track Domain Rating and AI citation score so you can see whether your footprint is growing.
GEO is optimizing to be found and cited in AI-generated answers: Gemini AI Overviews, ChatGPT search, Perplexity, and similar. We help on the supply side: more public URLs, structured metadata, and rewrites tuned per platform.
Anytime, from My Account. Cancelling drops you back to the free tier: your feeds pause and your destination connections stay saved, so resubscribing turns everything back on where you left it.
