Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Common questions about inblog including content migration, IP tracking exclusion, and pricing details.

Can individuals use inblog, or is it only for companies? Is a company name required to sign up?

Yes, individual creators, freelancers, and sole proprietors can use inblog.

  • Free Plan: Suited for individual creators with no subscription cost.
  • Team Plan: The blog setup flow includes a business information step, but you can enter a personal brand name or your own name instead of a company name.

That said, inblog's core features — custom domain, lead capture forms, and SEO analytics — are optimized for business inbound content marketing. There is no separate pricing tier or feature set designed specifically for personal blogging.

Getting started with inblog

I already have a free blog (Naver Blog, Tistory, Blogger, WordPress.com, etc.). Why should I use inblog?

Free blogging services give you a place to publish, but inblog is built for business inbound content marketing. The main differences:

  • Technical SEO handled for you: clean server-rendered HTML, automatic H1–H3 markup, an auto-generated sitemap and robots.txt, and BlogPosting JSON-LD structured data are all applied with no setup.
  • SEO equity accrues to your own domain: connect a custom domain and your search rankings, backlinks, and domain authority build on your brand's domain instead of a shared free platform.
  • Turn visitors into leads: built-in lead capture forms plus real-time traffic and keyword analytics let you measure and improve marketing performance, not just publish posts.
  • Run it without developers: most of the above is configured from the dashboard with no code.

In short, a free blog is mostly "a place to write," while inblog is "a business blog tool that connects search and AI visibility to lead generation."

I'm currently running a blog on WordPress / Ghost. Can I migrate my content to inblog?

Yes! inblog provides "content migration support for platforms like WordPress, Ghost, Naver Blog, and more." Notable companies such as Classum and HappyTalk have completed successful migrations to the platform.

How does inblog help my content show up in AI search (GEO), like ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews?

Getting cited in AI search works much like traditional SEO: AI models crawl and read web content, then quote it in their answers. The keys are a machine-readable structure and clear, quotable content.

What inblog handles automatically:

  • JSON-LD structured data plus meta and OG tags, so AI crawlers understand each post's topic and structure
  • Automatic H1–H3 markup and SSR rendering, delivering clean HTML that LLMs can ingest directly
  • Auto-generated sitemap and robots.txt, so search engines and AI crawlers discover new posts quickly

What you should focus on:

  • Answer questions directly and up front (FAQ and How-to formats). AI tends to quote paragraphs that state a clear answer.
  • Include original data, examples, and quotable statistics to raise the odds of being cited.
  • Build topical authority by covering one subject in depth across related posts.

Like regular SEO, AI search visibility needs time to index and accumulate — results typically take several months to appear.

Can I exclude traffic from specific IPs to avoid skewed page view data?

The platform does not currently offer IP-based tracking exclusion. However, any blog access using the parameter ?traffic_type=internal gets "automatically excluded from page view tracking in the inblog dashboard."

How is inblog priced?

The service "starts at $39/month and scales based on your monthly page views."

Which plan do I need to use the REST API or CLI?

The REST API and @inblog/cli are available on any paid plan (Team Plan and above).

  • There is no difference in API features between plan tiers — you can work with the same resources (posts, tags, authors, blogs, redirects, forms, lead responses).
  • Billing scales with your traffic (page views), not with the plan tier.
  • Generate an API key under Dashboard → Settings → API Keys, and use @inblog/cli for terminal and automation work. See inblog CLI and AI Skills and the API docs for details.

Can I make an individual post private?

inblog does not currently offer a way to make a single post private — once published, a post is served at a public URL that anyone can open.

To show a post to specific people before publishing, share the editor's preview link. The preview path is different from the live post URL, so it is not counted in your page view or visit analytics.

inblog does not offer a paid membership (gated access) feature for restricting content to subscribers.

If I downgrade to the Free Plan, what happens to my connected custom domain?

Custom domain connection is a paid feature, so when you cancel a paid subscription your blog moves to the Free Plan and the connected custom domain (e.g. example.com/blog or blog.example.com) is disconnected.

  • While the domain is disconnected, URLs that search engines had indexed under that custom domain return 404. (The blog and its posts stay public on inblog's default address.)
  • If you resubscribe to a paid plan, you can reconnect the same custom domain and restore those URLs.
  • Because frequently changing domains can hurt your SEO, we recommend keeping the same domain whenever possible.
