Most related posts available as a free resource use post categories or tags to cross-link articles, which means recommendations are rarely accurate. Bibblio uses standardized natural language processing to thoroughly analyze your content. This extracts relations, typed dependencies between words, and synonyms, that can be used in powerful context-aware semantic applications. A layer of machine-learning optimization is added to these connections: with each click the recommendations are recalibrated to adapt to user behavior, in order to ensure your site displays the best results for your audience. All the tracking is done anonymously through Bibblio’s modules, so nothing needs to be done on your side.
You can choose between popular, optimized, related, or cross site recommendations at no extra cost. Your visitors will get the opportunity to engage with more of your content and stay longer if you add several modules to your pages with different recommendations types, or choose to recommend from different catalogues.
Implementation is quick and easy thanks to Bibblio’s Quick Start code: a code snippet added to your site automatically imports new and existing posts, whilst the display snippet is added where you want the module to appear. If you’re unsure about how to set it up and lack the technical resources, a member of the Bibblio team can set up a call to help you with installation.

“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 tool 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 solutions 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.
Since then, Bibblio has removed the plugin to focus on its JavaScript and API tooling, which offer better results since they offer faster page loads and more customizable features at no extra cost.
How do you get started with Bibblio?
For WordPress users looking to enjoy Bibblio on their site, you can utilize Bibblio’s Quick Start code for an easy plug-and-play installation. Those looking for a more custom integration can check out the API documentation. Both methods are fully compatible with WordPress and give you access to additional features that were not available within the plugin. Get in touch with a member of the Bibblio team if you need assistance with the installation at no extra cost.
