What to expect from an ideal product

  1. Hyvor Blogs lets you run your blog as a sub-directory (like yoursite.com/blog) without touching your main site's codebase or hosting setup.
  2. No reverse proxy headaches: Hyvor Blogs handles the sub-directory routing so your existing website stays intact while your blog gets its own publishing environment.
  3. Built-in SEO, comments, and newsletters mean you are not stitching together plugins just to get a functional blog running under your domain.
  4. Because it runs on your existing domain path, every post you publish builds authority directly on your root domain instead of leaking it to a subdomain or third-party platform.
  5. One-click data exports and AGPL-3.0 licensing mean you own your content and can move it whenever you want, no lock-in attached to the sub-directory setup.
