“After testing 4-5 of the most popular options, I can say that Bibblio is the best related posts plugin that I’ve used.”
– Colin Newcomer, WPLift
Despite being an industry-grade service carrying out extremely complex AI computation and storage, the plugin still remains free of charge if you choose the Starter plan. This lets you import a total of 500 posts and show modules on your site up to 25,000 times each month. It’s perfect for small sites or if you need proof that it’s as smart as people say, before scaling up to a larger plan that can handle more intense volumes.
You’ve taken the related posts for a test drive and you’re happy with what you’ve seen, but you’ve hit your cap on posts or module displays per month. You can increase these volumes significantly from as little as $19/month, with no hidden charges. This ensures all of your posts are imported and that related posts are displayed for the entirety of each month. It also means the suggestions include your most recent posts. Bibblio’s plans are totally transparent and our support team is on hand to assist when you need to scale up.
Sites are seeing around 6x ROI when they use Bibblio’s plugin. The paid plans and Enterprise license also allows you to use different implementation methods that open up features such as personalization and cataloguing. Talk to a member of the Bibblio team to find out more.
“We’ve seen its spookily accurate article recommendations drive a 2.5% increase in overall page views. Bibblio is able to understand what our news stories are about and recommend the perfect related stories. In many ways, I suspect there is some witchcraft involved.”
– Matt Martel, Business Desk
The WP Engine Advantage.
WP Engine and Bibblio are on the same mission for the web – specifically in creating experiences that derive more value for both the site owner and the end user. Bibblio was very keen to bring the power of their content discovery platform to WordPress users via a plugin that could get them running enterprise-quality recommendations in just a few clicks and at exceptional value.
As Bibblio’s processing is handled outside of WP Engine, the platform recognized it as one of the few related posts plugins they recommend as an alternative to those that suffer from the same MySQL, indexing, and search issues that cause performance problems. Couple that with the ‘spookily accurate’ related post suggestions powered by a set of ever-learning, ever-improving AI algorithms, and displayed in slick, well-built modules, and it was perfect for WP Engine users.
At the start of 2019, Related Posts for Bibblio was accepted as a recommended plugin, passing all code reviews and certification, assuring WP Engine’s customers that this was the go-to, stable solution for related posts and more. Those customers were used to doing the right things – they’d chosen a premium service such as WP Engine after all – so they expected a professional, results-driven experience from the Bibblio platform.
“Bibblio might just be the perfect plugin for you.”
– Freddy Muriuki, WPExplorer
How do you get started with Bibblio?
Download the Related Posts by Bibblio plugin on the WordPress.org plugin repository.
During setup you’ll create a Bibblio account. This is necessary to securely communicate with Bibblio’s related posts engine so that it can index and connect all of your posts. Whilst it runs it continuously recalculates these complex relationships, including any new posts that are added to the mix. This heavy and intensive process is handled on Bibblio’s servers, not on-the-fly on your website, hence you need a Bibblio account. You’ll be guided to this from the plugin’s admin page. You can choose a free Starter plan or a paid plan that better suits your site size and traffic volume.
