What Excite Blog is
Excite Blog is a blogging service for posts about hobbies, diaries, cooking, lifestyle, photography, and other subjects. Its editor supports image insertion and rich links that can show a linked page’s title, introduction, and image. Posts can be scheduled, analyzed, synchronized with Twitter or Facebook, and shared through social buttons. Writers can sell paid articles through codoc, setting prices from 100円 to 50,000円; readers can preview part of an article, and codoc deducts a 15% platform fee. Free-course users can publish up to four paid articles monthly, while paid-course users can publish without that stated limit. Excite says images are displayed large and that it applies measures against unauthorized copying and reposting. Plans range from Free to Super Premium, changing storage, pages, reports, advertising, plugins, and paid-article allowances. The service is available on web, Android, and iOS.
