One platform instead of a dozen vendors
BoomPress puts publishing, community, revenue and hosting under one roof, so your team spends its time on coverage instead of keeping the website running.
A CMS built for a daily news cycle
Writers, editors and admins each get the tools they need, and nothing they don't. Stories move from draft to review to published, on your schedule.
- Drafts, editorial review and scheduled publishing
- Tag stories by team, league and player so they land on the right pages
- Build home and section pages without a developer
- Media library, image credits and galleries
- Several site designs, styled with your colors, fonts and logo, plus dark mode
Build a community, not just traffic
Search and social feeds bring readers in once, on an algorithm's terms. Comments, email and apps bring them back to you directly, every day.
- Comments with replies, voting, notifications and moderation tools
- Email newsletters sent from the same place you publish
- iOS and Android apps with push notifications
- Reader accounts and followed teams
- Fast pages, sitemaps and structured data for search
- Partner syndication feeds with image credits and links back to you
Memberships and ads that work together
Reader revenue and advertising shouldn't fight each other. BoomPress lets you decide which stories are free, which are for members, and how ads behave for each.
- Monthly and annual memberships with free trials
- Choose article by article what's free and what's for members
- Card payments through Stripe, with members managing their own plan
- A fully managed ad stack: Google Ad Manager, AdX and Prebid
- Ad-free or lighter ad experiences for members
The parts you never have to think about
Managed hosting

Game-day ready
Capacity goes up ahead of big games, and we watch traffic live while they're on.
Continuous updates
New features and fixes ship to every site, included in your base price.
