Adobe Contribute

There is no automated service in Adobe Contribute for submitting blog content to a WordPress blog, but it’s possible. Note, however, that you must be hosting the WordPress blog on your own server. You cannot use Adobe Contribute with a WordPress.com hosted blog. Using no additional software and changing a few settings on your WordPress account, you will be on your way to remote publishing in just a few mouse clicks.
