Frase CMS
Publish blog content directly from Frase
Frase CMS is a built-in blog hosting platform that lets you write, optimize, and publish content directly from Frase.
Instead of writing content in one tool and publishing it in another, Frase CMS keeps everything in a single workflow. This means you can move from first draft to a live blog post without switching tools, configuring plugins, or managing hosting infrastructure.
Important: Frase CMS is headless, which means it only provides the content behind the scenes. It only works with platforms or websites that are built to connect to a headless CMS.
Why Frase CMS
Most content teams use a workflow that looks like this:
Write and optimize content in a writing tool
Copy the content into a CMS (like WordPress)
Reformat headings and images
Add SEO metadata
Configure plugins
Publish and verify the page layout
This extra step often doubles the time required to publish a piece of content.
Frase CMS removes that second half of the process.
Once your content is finished in the Frase editor, you can publish it instantly with a single click.
No copy-pasting
No reformatting
No plugin management
No separate CMS login
How Frase CMS Works
Publishing content with Frase CMS is a simple three-step process.
1. Create Content in Frase
Start by researching and writing your article inside Frase.
You can:
Research topics and competitors
Generate a content brief
Write and optimize your article
Add images and formatting
Configure headings and structure
By the time your article is complete, it is already optimized for search and AI visibility.
2. Publish Your Article
Once your article is ready, you can publish it directly from the editor.
You have two options:
Manual publishing
Click Publish and your article goes live immediately.
Agent-powered publishing
Tell the Frase Agent something like:
“Publish my article to the blog”
“Schedule this post for next Tuesday at 9am”
The agent handles:
Formatting
Image optimization
Meta tags
SEO markup
Publishing
3. Track Performance and Update Content
After publishing, you can monitor performance directly inside Frase.
You can view:
Page views
Engagement metrics
Content performance over time
If you need to update an article, simply edit it in the same editor and republish. There is no separate CMS dashboard to manage.
Hosting Options
Frase CMS gives you multiple ways to host your blog depending on your setup and SEO goals.
Subdomain
blog.yoursite.com
Quick launches and testing content strategies
~1 minute
Custom Domain
yoursite.com
Full brand ownership and independent blog hosting
~5 minutes
Subdirectory
yoursite.com/blog
Maximum SEO value and domain authority consolidation
~15 minutes
Subdomain Hosting
Frase hosts your blog on a subdomain.
Example:
blog.yoursite.com
This is the fastest way to get started and requires minimal configuration.
Custom Domain Hosting
You can connect your own domain and publish directly to it.
Frase automatically handles:
SSL certificates
DNS verification
security configuration
This option allows you to run your blog entirely on your own domain without managing servers.
Subdirectory Hosting
You can also host your blog at a subdirectory like:
yoursite.com/blog
This is typically the best option for SEO, since content published in a subdirectory contributes to the authority of your primary domain.
This setup uses a reverse proxy connection between your website and Frase CMS.
