What does Pagecord mean?
There's a blog post for that! What is the meaning of "pagecord"?
How does Pagecord work?
Create an account by choosing a subdomain for your blog and supplying your email address. Once you verify your email, you'll receive a secret email address. Emails sent to this secret address from the email address you give us will appear as posts on your Pagecord page. If you prefer, you can log in to your account and create posts directly in the app.
Your Pagecord page is a public profile that anyone can view. It looks like https://pagecord.com/blog.

Do I own the content that I post?
Yes. As long as what you post is your own work, you own it (posting copyrighted material that you don't own is a no-no). Pagecord does not claim ownership of any content you post.
Does Pagecord support RSS?
Yes. Just append /feed.xml to any blog's domain, e.g. https://blog.pagecord.com/feed.xml
Can I import my blog from another platform?
Yes, but it's not self-serve. Contact support and we'll look into it for you. We've already done this from WordPress, Ghost, static sites and others. A premium subscription is required to proceed with an import.
What is your refund policy?
For annual subscriptions, we'll refund your money if you've been a subscriber for less than a month. No questions asked (although we'd love to know why you didn't like it). Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable.
Can I change my subscription plan?
Monthly subscribers can upgrade to annual at any time from the billing settings page. You'll be charged a prorated amount for the remaining time on your monthly plan.
To switch from annual to monthly, let your annual subscription run out and then resubscribe on the monthly plan.
