DropIn Blog was an excellent solution where Shopify's blog limited us, and it helps us with SEO. The little customizations, like authors and categories, are also nice. And support always helps you as fast and as much as they can.

Implemented a few months ago. Very happy so far. DropInBlog solved our Shopify blog limitation and allowed us to create a better blog with proper author pages. Love how it helps guide the creation of each post with an estimated SEO score. I have reached out to support twice so far and both times received answers/solutions within the 1/2 hour. Great experience.

In general, this app is only suitable for complete beginners, and it's best if your store doesn't have any existing blogs. If you need to customize blog pages extensively, I would suggest using a page builder (I won't mention the names of these apps to avoid suspicion, but you know, they're easy to search for), or just contact a web development team. Pros: 1. Easy to use, can quickly create a medium SEO quality, rich-media blog 2. Customer service is responsive, with a good attitude, and helped solve many problems together Cons: 1. Don't expect the blog pages to have many customizable features. Compared to the native Shopify blog, the biggest advantage here is just text-to-speech conversion. 2. The product placement function is very limited, basically only including product titles, images, descriptions, "read more," and "add to cart" buttons. If you don't have web coding skills, you basically can't modify anything. 3. If you have a bunch of old blogs, after importing them into this app, the same number of new pages will be created without any notice, with identical content. I think there is a risk of Google considering it duplicate content or spam, and if you later abandon the app, all these links will become 404, and you will need to redirect them yourself.
Thanks for your feedback! We really appreciate it. Yes as you mentioned we're focused on creating clear usable blog posts (our main post design is based on usability testing). So if you're looking for super complex blog post layouts a page builder is the way to go. Our main focus is SEO and getting more potential customers to your blog. Appreciate the feedback on the Embeded Products feature. Our users love this and we're always working to add new layouts and features to it, so thanks for the feedback. We'll keep improving this.

Great customer support! They were so quick to fix the issue when I needed it. The blog itself is fantastic, of course. I love this thing.
