Connect DotNetNuke (DNN) to Sorank

DotNetNuke (DNN) is a long-standing .NET CMS, but it offers no public API to create blog posts from an outside service. Its services framework is built for custom modules running inside the install, not external publishing. Sorank still gives you a fully automated SEO blog on your own domain.

Why DotNetNuke needs a hosted blog

DNN's API surface is designed for module developers working within the platform, not for remote content creation. Pushing a post from an outside tool means building and maintaining a custom module. Instead of that overhead, you let Sorank host the blog for you.

The simple route: host your blog on Sorank

Sorank publishes and hosts your articles on your own subdomain, for example blog.yourdomain.com, linked from your DNN site. Every post strengthens your domain authority.

1. In Sorank, go to Settings > Integrations and open Manage my blog.
2. Click Activate my blog.
3. Add the CNAME and TXT DNS records at your domain provider, then verify.

Full walkthrough: Host your blog on Sorank. For developer context, see the DNN API docs.

Link it from your DotNetNuke site

Add a Blog link in your DNN navigation pointing to your hosted blog subdomain. Visitors move smoothly between your main site and your blog, and Google indexes both under your domain.
