PageFrog is a WordPress plugin to enable you to publish articles to Facebook Instant Articles and Google Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMPs).

PageFrog gives WordPress users convenient access to a valuable new content marketing tool – Facebook Instant Articles. It also works with Google’s Accelerated Mobile Pages. When Facebook first announced Instant Articles it looked as though they were really only going to be accessible to larger organisations due to the high threshold set for the size of your content “silo” – a minimum of 50 articles were required.

That figure has now been reduced to five but the setting up and management of a Facebook Instant Articles campaign

Now, with the PageFrog plugin for wordpress you can publish your content from your WordPress blog posts directly to Facebook Instant Articles and Google Accelerated Mobile Pages and all with full support for Facebook ads and analytics.

Why should you want to publish content Facebook #Instant Articles or Google AMPs?

Goog question, its all about speed really. These formats are designed to load almost instantly on mobile devices and therefore produce much higher levels of engagement with the reader leading to more clicks, more shares, more followers.

Do you really need a plugin to do this?

Yes, most people will because it is complex and time-consuming to do it yourself. Facebopok and Google enforce very tight and unique styling restrictions for this type of content. Instead of you having to build custom layouts these formats, PageFrog lets you handle it all within the relatively easy to use WordPress interface.

You can connect to Google Analytics and also get statistics from Facebook Insights. Google Adsense works with PageFrog, as do Facebook Ads.

If you are serious about content marketing, especially on mobiles, this is a must although you may wish to also consider Bolt Publisher which also supports Apple’s recently launched News format. I’ve heard that PageFrog plan to offer support for that format as well in the future.

At the moment it’s a free plugin but do make sure it is compatible with your version of WordPress.
