Turn each blog post into a beehiiv issue you can review

Publish on your LookMyBio blog, and the article waits in beehiiv as a draft with its images, cover and tags, so you decide when your subscribers get it.

beehiiv sits next to your other connected blogs in the same window, from Starter.

  • Connect with an API key
  • Sent as HTML
  • Link back to your post
  • Up to 10 tags

Your newsletter repeats what the blog already said

Rebuilding an article as a beehiiv post means copying it section by section, uploading the pictures again, retyping tags and adding a note that sends readers to the full piece on your site.

Your digital presence doesn't have to be this fragmented

LookMyBio brings the whole flow into one platform, so you produce in a more organized way and stay in control of what gets published.

How it works

  1. Get your key and publication id

    In beehiiv, open Settings, then API, create a key and note the publication id that starts with pub_.

  2. Connect beehiiv

    Save both on LookMyBio, where your blog lists its destinations. They are stored for that destination only.

  3. Include beehiiv on a post

    Check beehiiv in the Cross-post window. A draft shows up there as soon as the post is published on your blog, or at the time you scheduled.

An API key and the publication it belongs to

beehiiv's public API creates posts with a key you generate in its settings, plus the id of the publication that should receive them. No beehiiv password is shared.

  • beehiiv only allows post creation through its API on its Pro and Enterprise plans
  • Revoke the key in beehiiv to cut the connection

Built for the inbox, not just the web

The post goes over as HTML. Because a beehiiv post is also an email and mail apps do not play embedded videos, a YouTube clip or a post on X arrives as a plain link. beehiiv takes up to 10 content tags; the rest are dropped.

  • Your cover image becomes the post thumbnail
  • Title and subtitle travel with it

A closing line that credits your blog

beehiiv has no canonical URL setting, so the copy ends with an "Originally published at" line linking to your post. Readers who want the web version find it, and the original is clearly named.

  • Nothing else in the article is changed

Drafts first, because each post can be an email

New copies start as drafts so nothing reaches subscribers until you check it in beehiiv. You can switch that off for a post to have it go out straight away.

  • beehiiv accepts no edits through its API, so the copy keeps the version it first received
  • Reader replies and comments stay in beehiiv; it offers no API to read them

beehiiv questions

For writers who send a newsletter with beehiiv.

Both are in beehiiv under Settings, API. Create a new key there; the publication id is shown on the same page and begins with pub_.

Not by default. The copy lands as a draft, and you send or schedule it from beehiiv. Turn drafts off for a post only when you want it to go out without a review.

beehiiv lets the API create posts only for publications on its Pro or Enterprise plans. On other plans the request is refused and the Cross-post window shows it as a plan issue.

Not from here. beehiiv does not accept updates through its API, so correct the draft in beehiiv itself, ideally before it is sent.

beehiiv is one of the cross-posting destinations, which open on Starter for $27 a month.

Let the blog feed your newsletter

Connect beehiiv once, and every post you choose waits there as a draft with a link home.
