Shopify blog app · On the Shopify App Store

The Shopify blog app that writes and publishes your store's articles

YoDon researches each topic, writes a cited article with a featured image and publishes it to your Shopify blog — live or as a draft — once, in bulk, or on a schedule you set.

Free to start · No card required · Two ways in, explained below

Two ways in, same product

Start on yodon.com, or install from Shopify

Both publish to the same store blog with the same articles. The difference is where you sign up and who bills you.

Option 1

Start free on yodon.com

Create your account here, then add your store under Sites and approve the install in Shopify. Your plan is billed by YoDon in US dollars, and you manage everything from the full dashboard.

  • Free plan, no card
  • One account for Shopify and any other sites you run
  • Automations, bulk articles and internal linking in the dashboard

Option 2

Install from the Shopify App Store

Find YoDon on the Shopify App Store and select Install. It opens inside your Shopify admin, already connected, with your account created from the store owner's email. Billing runs through Shopify.

  • Write single articles from inside Shopify admin
  • Plan changes and cancellation on your Shopify pricing page
  • The full YoDon dashboard is still there when you want it

Step-by-step instructions are in the Shopify connection guide.

Two minutes, start to finish

Watch one article go from a topic to a published post

The real product, recorded end to end: connecting a site, setting a topic and a rhythm, the run itself, and the finished article live on the blog.

Made for store blogs

Blog posts your store can stand behind

  • Researched, with sources

    On paid plans each article starts with live web research, and the sources it used are listed in the post — useful when you write about materials, care or buying advice.

  • Draft or live, your call

    Send an article as a draft and it waits unpublished under Blog posts until you publish it. Send it live and it publishes immediately.

  • Featured image included

    Every article gets its own generated featured image, uploaded to your store's files. Turn images off if you prefer your own.

  • A schedule that keeps the blog alive

    Pick a rhythm — daily, weekly, monthly — and new posts keep arriving without anyone remembering to write them.

  • Refresh old posts in place

    A refresh rewrites the same blog post at the same URL, so it keeps its history instead of competing with a copy of itself.

  • Your blog, your author name

    Choose which of your store's blogs to publish to and the author name shown on each post.

How it works

From store to first blog post

  1. 1

    Connect your store

    Start free on yodon.com and add Shopify under Sites, or install from the Shopify App Store.

  2. 2

    Name a topic

    One article, a list in bulk, or an automation that writes on a rhythm. Only the subject is required.

  3. 3

    It posts to your blog

    Researched, written and illustrated, then published to your Shopify blog or saved as a draft.

Pricing

Priced per finished article

These are the plans for accounts started on yodon.com, billed by YoDon in US dollars. If you install from the Shopify App Store instead, billing runs through Shopify and your plans show on the app's pricing page in Shopify admin. One credit is one finished article at the Standard writing level; Enhanced costs 2 and Maximum 3.

Questions

Is YoDon on the Shopify App Store?
Yes. You can install it from the Shopify App Store, or start on yodon.com and connect your store from the Sites page. Both publish to the same Shopify blog.
Which should I choose: yodon.com or the App Store?
Start on yodon.com if you want the Free plan with no card, one account for several sites, or billing directly with YoDon. Install from the App Store if you would rather have the app inside Shopify admin and pay through your Shopify bill.
I already have a yodon.com subscription. What happens if I install the app?
Your existing yodon.com subscription stays as it is. An account created from inside Shopify is billed through Shopify instead.
Can I review posts before they appear on my store?
Yes. Send articles as drafts and they sit unpublished under Blog posts in Shopify until you publish them.
What permissions does it need?
Reading and writing blog content, and reading and writing files for the images it uploads. Uninstalling the app from Shopify admin revokes that access immediately.
Will it get my store more traffic?
Nobody can honestly promise that. YoDon researches, structures and publishes articles regularly, with sources and a featured image; how search engines rank them is up to them.

Put your store's blog on autopilot

Start free on yodon.com and connect your store in a couple of minutes — or install from the Shopify App Store if you prefer.
