What Tools does Nelio Content offer for editorial teams?

Nelio Content includes different tools to help you be more efficient in managing your editorial team.

Note that some of these tools are only available in Nelio Content Premium plans.

Editorial Calendar

An editorial calendar is an easy, yet very powerful tool that helps you to conquer this publishing consistency. It’s the perfect companion for establishing specific deadlines and scheduling your colleagues’ work and yours.

Content Board

The content board is a kaban-like visual tool that helps you plan, organize and manage all your website content per status, offering a useful overview of your current workflow.

Content Feeds

Nelio Content Feeds allows you to view the RSS feeds (headlines and link to published content) of your favorite blogs directly in your WordPress so you can share them on your social networks or generate new content from them.

Editorial Tasks

Editorial tasks are a simple tool that help you organize all the activities related to crafting posts and other editorial activites. In essence, tasks are activites that someone (either you or a member in your team) has to get done before its due date. 

Editorial Comments

With editorial comments, the members of your team and you can discuss anything about a certain post within the context of that post. 

To communicate by using editorial comments: you can submit comments to the author of a post directly in the edit page of that post in WordPress. This function helps you in the revision process of each post contextualizing the communication with your teammates.

Editorial References

Editorial or suggested references are links to pages or external resources that inspire the author of a post or indicate him that he should use these links within the content he’s writing.

The mechanism of suggested references in Nelio Content allows the recommendation of links in the context of a post. Therefore, an editor may indicate which links the author needs to add into the content of a post, or at which links should the author look at because they may contain related information that is worth referencing.

Notifications

Nelio Content allows you to indicate a set of users to be notified by email when the publication status of a post changes (Draft, Pending review, Published and Scheduled), when an editorial task is created or completed or when new editorial comments appear:

This tool is very useful for managing editorial teams and making sure that, for example, if you have a post already written, it is reviewed by a colleague.

Quality Checks

Nelio Content analyzes the quality of your posts according to different criteria:

The quality indicator of a post displayed by Nelio Content is an aid to the editorial team to know the status of the content of the post.

Future Actions

Future actions allow you to further automate your content strategy workflows. With future actions, you can schedule a set of actions to be executed in the future and automatically change something in your publications.

For example, you can set when to stick a post, unpublish it, change its status, or change its categories and tags while editing a post or from the calendar or content board.

Social Media Promotion

Nelio Content simplifies the creation and promotion of your WordPress content. It’s been designed from scratch to help you to schedule, create, and promote your content efficiently and effortlessly. Using its editorial calendar and social media timeline, you can define an effective inbound marketing strategy that will boost your incoming social media traffic.

Manual Social Messages

You can always create social messages manually every time you write a new blog post and/or every time you want to reshare old content with your followers—but Nelio Content with Social Automations takes away all the hard work from you and eases an otherwise complex and time-consuming process.

Automations

With Nelio Content you have two types of automations to intelligently share your content on social networks: Publication and Reshare.

You can generate a full timeline of social messages to promote the same content during the subsequent hours and days after its publication, thus reaching a broader audience and making sure nobody misses your content.

Reshare automations create messages which are used for resharing old content with your followers. They are automatically created using a WordPress cron job and guarantee that your social accounts are always filled with relevant links to your blog. This is how your editorial calendar might look like if you enable social resharing:

Series

Nelio Content allows you to group your posts into collections or series. This is perfect for magazines, newspapers, short-story authors, educators, comic creators, or anyone who produces multiple posts on a similar subject.
