What Is Postnomic?
Postnomic is a developer-centric headless blog backend that lets you add a fully-featured blog to any .NET application in minutes. Instead of building blog infrastructure from scratch, you integrate Postnomic through its REST API or ready-made Client SDKs and focus on what matters most: your content and your product.
How It Works
Postnomic follows a headless architecture. The backend handles all blog operations — content storage, user management, media hosting, analytics, and comments — while you control the frontend presentation through your own application.
There are two primary ways to integrate:
- Client SDKs — Drop-in NuGet packages for ASP.NET Core Razor Pages and Blazor that render a complete blog UI at a route you choose (e.g.,
/blog). - REST API — Full programmatic access to all blog features via authenticated HTTP endpoints, ideal for custom frontends or third-party integrations.
Key Features
- Multi-Tenant Blogs — Create and manage multiple blogs under a single account. Each blog has its own slug, content, users, and settings.
- Rich Post Lifecycle — Posts move through Draft, InReview, Scheduled, Published, Unpublished, and Archived states with optional review workflows.
- Team Collaboration — Invite users to your blog with granular roles: Reader, Author, Editor, Reviewer, and Admin.
- Built-In Analytics — Track page views, unique visitors, and daily statistics per post and per blog.
- Comment System — Threaded comments with configurable required fields and moderation support.
- Media Storage — Upload images and files to Azure Blob Storage with automatic proxying through the API.
- Content Scheduling — Schedule posts to publish and unpublish at specific dates and times.
- Cross-Posting — Publish the same content across multiple blogs with proper canonical URL handling.
- API Key Authentication — Secure machine-to-machine access for your applications using API keys.
