Member Newsletter May 2026
There’s a lot happening across our Group Blog communities this month, and we’ve pulled together the updates that matter most, from learning opportunities to helpful publishing tools to event news you won’t want to miss. Here’s what’s ahead for May.
Plan Ahead: Schedule Your Next Post
With summer vacations, travel, and conference season in full swing, it’s the perfect time to take advantage of the scheduling tool built right into your blog dashboard. You can set your posts to publish on a future date and time, ideal for staying visible even when you’re out of office, onsite at events, or simply spreading out your content for better reach.
It only takes a moment to set up, and it helps keep your publishing consistent all season long.

Strong Results for the “Best of” Lists
Our “Best Of” program is moving along well. We’ve published seven lists so far, and they’re performing nicely in search and showing up in AI citations. We’re continuing to add new categories, with six more VAR and ISV lists coming out in this first round.
If you haven’t had a chance to look yet, you can catch the latest in Anya’s post and see the updated release schedule. And if you’re still thinking about applying, feel free to reach out — there’s still a little time before the deadlines close.
New Feature Rolled Out for Turnkey Members: Company Visitors Widget
We’re rolling out a new dashboard widget called Company Visitors. It shows you which companies have been reading the posts you publish on our group blog sites.
Where to find it:
Log in to your blog dashboard and look in the right-hand column. The widget shows:
• Every identifiable company that viewed your posts
• Which articles they read
• Total visit counts
• Most recent visit date
• Filters for last 30 days, last 12 months, or a specific month
Note: Data collection began April 17, 2026, so earlier history isn’t available.
