Who uses Wordable?
Wordable exports over 5,400+ posts every month for the following:
- SaaS teams publish to their primary site, and then republish translated content to multilingual ones.
- Publishers manage distributed writing teams while posting hundreds of times each month.
- Agencies juggle multiple client sites and save each of their unique preferences.
- Affiliates scale their content publishing with the same settings across multiple sites.
Here’s How Wordable Works:
Step #1. Write in Google Docs.
Write and collaborate with your team or writers inside Google Docs.
Wordable will automatically retain & format each HTML element for you, while stripping out all the SPAN and FONT tags, extra line breaks, spaces skipped, and other junk that messes up your content formatting and presentation.
Step #2. Optimize Posts and Pages to rank & convert better.
Sync folders & docs in seconds, then you can optimize posts individually or in bulk, like:
- Publish as different post types or pages
- Set the post URL, category, byline, and more
- Imports images into your Media Library
- Compress images, set their filename, and alt text
- Automatically set the featured image (per post, or the first image in each doc)
- Auto-generate a Table of Contents from headers
- Open links in a new tab and/or nofollow
- Format YouTube URLs as embeds
Step #3. Instantly export publish-ready content.
When finished customizing, simply load up your export queue and publish as many documents as you’d like with 1-click (either as a draft or live post).
You can save recurring export settings as templates, and apply these by site, category, byline, post type, or whatever combination you want!
Get started today and start saving at least ~30-minutes every time you need to export a Google Doc to WordPress, uploading, formatting, optimizing, and publishing each post.
Why use Wordable?
Reason #1. Streamline your team’s publishing workflow.
- View and import documents from team members’ Drives (and vice versa). Sidestep permission issues or just simplify your workflow so that you don’t have people waiting on each other.
- Set a status on individual documents so everyone knows if something is ready to export, or if it still needs work or a review before publishing.
- See what everyone has already exported. Avoid duplicating your team’s work, while also staying on top of the latest content each other has published.
Reason #2. Customize & optimize individual documents before exporting.
- Have full control over individual document elements, like the post title, slug or URL, and featured images.
- Edit and optimize images prior to publishing. Automatically pull in image filenames and alt text from Google Docs, or customize these elements inside Wordable before publishing.
- Arm your team with a more efficient process, quickly editing the key elements of individual documents before exporting them all at the same time in bulk.
Reason #3. Automate your recurring, tedious, time-consuming tasks.
- Consistently apply the same export settings to all documents, organized by site, author or byline, category, post type, and more.
- Setup your preferences once, and then export as many documents as you’d like in 1-click from them on.
- Never manually set another featured image, create a Table of Contents by hand, edit links individually to nofollow or open in a new tab, and lots more.

FAQ
Wordable is a tool that instantly exports Google Doc files to a WordPress, HubSpot, or Medium post or page. We transform document elements into clean, fast HTML. We import, compress, and optimize images. We even work with tables and other special formatting. Wordable allows you to write in your favorite app and export it to your CMS as-is, without spending hours reformatting in clunky editors.
Wordable was created out of personal frustration spending hours copy & pasting from Google Docs into WordPress and manually uploading all those images, cleaning HTML, and more. We also believed there was a better way to export, format, and optimize content than spending thousands of dollars each month on people (read: manual labor) to do these tedious, soul-sucking, and recurring tasks.
We’re honest. Wordable isn’t for everyone. If you only publish 1-2 articles per month, you probably don’t need us. If you publish more than 5 pieces per month, or publish across multiple sites, or work with a team of writers, then Wordable will save you hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars.
Wordable will save you roughly ~30-60 minutes per article. (Assuming you’re properly cleaning HTML, optimizing and compressing images, and optimizing content like we do.) Wordable is also automating work that you or hired employees will need to do. So take the number of articles you’re publishing, times the number of hours saved, times the effective hourly rate, and you’ll quickly see a GIANT ROI. Here’s how to calculate your own ROI.
WordPress websites will use our plugin to connect, while HubSpot and Medium only require a few simple clicks! If you run into any troubles, our team is standing by and ready to jump in to help get you connected ASAP.
There’s no limit! Srsly. Our larger plans can accommodate hundreds (if not thousands) of sites. If you fall into this category, reach out to us via [email protected] and we can set up a call to discuss your unique needs.
Yes! You can connect team members, import documents from each other’s Drives, and collaborate across departments.
Yes, no problem. Please email [email protected] and we’ll transfer it over for you.
