Automatically create/update a Web Site or Blog using Evernote

What it is Postach.io

Postach.io is an amazing tool that allow you to publish a WebSite using your Evernote notes. This post for example uses the Postach.io website and it was completely described using Evernote.

How It Works

Postach.io creates blog posts and pages from your notes. To create a post, write a note and tag it as “published” in a notebook from your choice that you link with your Postach.io site. Once Evernote syncs your note, your note is published on your site, automatically!

Creating a page works the same, except you add an additional tag “page”. This tells Postach.io to create your note as page instead of a post.

Every time you change your note and the note get synchronized, your website content will be changed automatically.

To remove a note from your site, simply remove the “published” tag and re-sync. You could also delete the note itself. It is that easy!

Formating your post

You can format your post using Markdown or using HTML code directly.

Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML).

You can also format using the Evernote editor itself. Every time your note has a link for example, it will also appear as a link on your publication as well.

Comments

Postach.io uses Disqus for comments. Its a widely used and an excellent tool for adding threaded comments to your site quickly. You’ll need to create an account, which is free, to start using it.
