I did the Standard.site thing
It seems like everyone is integrating Standard.site on their personal websites (and beyond) at the moment. It’s mainly been encouraged by Bluesky’s recent update to the treatment of sites integrated with Standard.site. Sam has a good explainer here.
It’s a cool feature! There’s loads of different platforms doing cool stuff, all using different data structures, so the standardisation was really needed. Integrating is fairly straightforward too.
If you’re using WordPress, for example, it’s as simple as using a plugin. There’s an Astro plugin too, along with all of your favourites (I imagine).
I’ll write up the details as part of my ongoing series. I’ll definitely be getting on that towards the end of the month too as my studio workload quietens down a bit.
Was it all a bit of a faff to integrate? Yes. Did I get rate limited multiple times? Absolutely. But do I think it’s worth doing? I think Standard.site is going to do wonders for website discovery, so without a doubt.
