Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Postumus.

What happens if I downgrade my plan?

Your existing blogs and posts are preserved. You just won't be able to create new ones until you're within your plan's limits. You can always edit or delete existing content.

How do custom domains work?

All plans include custom domains with automatic SSL. Point your domain's DNS to our servers, add it in your blog settings, and we handle the rest — including certificate provisioning via Let's Encrypt.

What are domain aliases?

Domain aliases are additional domains that redirect (301) to your blog's primary domain. This is important for SEO — search engines see one canonical URL, avoiding duplicate content penalties. For example, if your primary domain is blog.example.com, an alias of www.example.com will redirect visitors to the primary domain.

Can I verify my blog with Google and Bing?

Yes. All plans include support for search engine verification. Add your Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools verification codes in your blog's metadata settings, and we'll include the verification meta tags on every page.

Can I use my own analytics?

Pro and Business plans support Google Analytics, Yandex Metrika, and Google AdSense. Just add your tracking IDs in your blog's metadata settings.

What embeds are supported?

All plans include YouTube, Vimeo, S3-hosted photos, OMDB movie info, and iTunes content embeds. Add them via the plugin metadata editor when creating or editing a post.

Do I get an RSS feed?

Yes. Every blog automatically gets an RSS feed at /feed/ and a sitemap at /sitemap.xml — no setup required.

Can I have multiple blogs?

Yes. Free accounts get 1 blog, Pro gets 3, and Business gets 10. Each blog can have its own custom domain and settings.

What's the post limit on the free plan?

Free accounts can publish up to 20 posts per blog. Pro and Business plans have unlimited posts.

What does 'Postumus branding' mean?

Free blogs display a small 'Powered by Postumus' link in the footer. Pro and Business plans remove this.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. You can downgrade to the free plan at any time from your account settings. Your subscription ends at the end of the current billing period.

How do I export my data?

Contact us and we'll provide a full export of your blogs, posts, and metadata.

What is Postumus?
