Rankbox for WordPress

A WordPress blog that keeps itself current

Every article lands as a native WordPress post, in your theme.

  1. 01

    Real posts, not embeds

    Articles are saved as ordinary WordPress posts, so your theme, menus, and comments treat them like anything you wrote by hand.

  2. 02

    Publish now or hold as drafts

    Choose whether new articles go live straight away or wait in Drafts for a final read. Change it any time in the plugin's settings.

  3. 03

    Edits follow on their own

    Update an article in Rankbox and the change reaches the same post on the next sync. No re-uploading, and never a duplicate.

What lands in WordPress

Each finished article maps onto post fields WordPress already has, so there's nothing to set up.

In RankboxIn WordPress
  • TitlePost title
  • SlugPermalink
  • Article bodyPost content, with headings, lists, and links intact
  • Meta descriptionExcerpt
  • TagsPost tags
  • Live URLReported back to Rankbox

The live URL tells Rankbox where each article lives, so the backlink exchange knows which page to verify links on.

Setup

Connected in three steps

Install from the WordPress plugin directory. No developer, no code, no passwords shared.

  1. 1

    Install the plugin

    In WordPress, open Plugins → Add New, search for Rankbox, then install and activate it.

  2. 2

    Paste your Rankbox key

    Create a key under Integrations in your Rankbox dashboard and paste it in. The add-on checks it straight away and shows your brand name, so you know it's the right account.

  3. 3

    Choose where posts go

    Pick the post status, author, and category. New articles arrive from then on, and your Rankbox dashboard shows the site as Live.

Delivery status

Know it's working, not just connected

A key existing proves nothing. Rankbox watches for your site's requests and shows exactly which articles have arrived.

  • Live. Your site asked for articles in the last 48 hours. Everything is flowing.

  • Waiting. The key is ready and Rankbox is listening. It turns Live the moment your site first calls in.

  • Idle. No request for 48 hours. Rankbox flags it, so articles never quietly stop arriving.

Security

Your site holds the key

Every connection runs on one key per site. Here's everything that key can and can't do.

Limited by design

A key can fetch your finished articles and report where they went live, on your own domain. Nothing else in your account.

No passwords shared

Rankbox never logs into your site. Your site pulls articles in with a key you can see, replace, and revoke.

Stored as a hash

A key is shown once. Rankbox keeps only its SHA-256 hash, so a database leak never exposes a usable key.

Revoke in one click

Replace a key that may have leaked, or revoke one you no longer use. Syncing with it stops the moment you do.

FAQ

WordPress integration questions

Everything you need to know about connecting Rankbox with WordPress.

Yes. Articles are saved as standard WordPress posts, so they render with whatever theme you use, exactly like a post you wrote yourself.

Yes. Set the post status to Draft and new articles wait in Drafts until you publish them. Only articles you've finished in Rankbox are ever sent.

The plugin asks for everything changed since its last sync, so the edit updates the existing post. It never creates a duplicate.

No. It only creates and updates the posts Rankbox sends. The key it holds can fetch your articles and report where they went live, and nothing more.

It works on any WordPress site that can install plugins, including WordPress.com plans that allow them.

No. The plugin is included with every Rankbox plan, including the free trial. Your site syncs while your account has an active trial or plan.
