Plans →What DropInBlog does well

- Strong built-in SEO analyzer, sitemaps and schema
- API, SDKs and an MCP server for developers
- Team workflow: roles, audit log, staging on higher plans
Where DropInBlog falls short
- Starts at $159/month billed yearly, steep for a solo founder
- Built around a CMS editor, not around agents writing posts
- The blog renders through their embed rather than a standalone blog on your domain
- Higher plans require a sales demo
Why people switch from DropInBlog
Price
A founder publishing a few posts a month doesn't need a $159+/month team plan.
Agent-first writing
They want Claude or Codex to write and publish, not to paste into an editor.
A real blog URL
A hosted blog on blog.yourapp.com or /blog instead of an embed.
Search-driven topics
Pick topics from Search Console instead of guessing.
How Blogizi is different for DropInBlog users
From $9/month
Solo covers one blog and 100k pageviews; Pro adds Search Console for $19.
Agents publish directly
CLI, skill and a hosted MCP with Blogizi sign-in. Drafts by default.
Your domain, two ways
CNAME a subdomain or proxy yourapp.com/blog. No script embed.
The growth loop
Your agent reads Search Console and writes for page-2 queries.
Migration
How to move from DropInBlog to Blogizi
Most blogs move in an afternoon. Your agent can do the markdown conversion for you.
- 1
Export your posts
Export from DropInBlog, or ask your agent to fetch each post via their API.
- 2
Convert to markdown
Have your agent turn each post into markdown with Blogizi frontmatter, keeping the same slugs.
- 3
Draft everything
Run blogizi draft for each file (or let the agent loop through them) and review in the dashboard.
- 4
Point your domain
CNAME blog.yourapp.com, or proxy yourapp.com/blog, to Blogizi. Same slugs keep your URLs.
- 5
Publish and remove the embed
Publish, check Search Console for crawl errors, then remove the DropInBlog snippet.
Your agents write. Blogizi publishes.
A blog that grows its own Google traffic
Connect Search Console, let your agent find the queries you almost rank for, and publish the posts. On blogizi.com that loop drove 5× more impressions and 2× more clicks (Aug 2025 – Oct 2026).
