Schedule posts to WordPress.com: limits, media rules and setup
WordPress.com is a blog or newsletter platform. Publaro publishes there directly, with 100,000 characters per post and the platform's own media rules checked for you.
Publaro publishes to WordPress.com directly
Posts go to WordPress.com through its official API, at the time you schedule them. If WordPress.com does not answer after a post was sent, Publaro marks it "check needed" instead of sending it again, so a post never goes out twice.
