How to Instantly Upload Google Docs to WordPress

Why you should not directly copy-paste Google Docs to WordPress? Can I Upload a Google Doc to WordPress?
Yes, you can copy-paste your Google Doc directly. There are actually more issues than you imagine. Let me explain one by one

The Images are not copied over when you copy and paste Google Docs

It’s a huge problem. I assume you are producing high-quality blog posts in 2022 and you must have many images in your articles. But when you paste the article into WordPress’s Gutenberg editor, these images are still hosted at a private Google URL. It’s a very bad practice to publish the article without importing the images into the WordPress Media Library. These URLs are short-lived and can change anytime. The solution is to download the media and upload them to WP and replace those URLs. Now imagine doing it for every image and for multiple blog posts. That’s why people hire cheap editors from Fiverr and ask them to do it for themselves.

Unoptimized Images
If you look at your WordPress pagespeed insights, the scores can be low due to only one thing which is unoptimized images. Your entire 1000+ words are only a few KBs but an image can be 1024KB. It increases the response time significantly. People who care about their Google ranking and core web vitals, download all images and compress them and reupload them to WordPress manually. It creates unnecessary friction in the content-producing process.

What happens to links? Dofollow & Nofollow.
It’s a good idea to add a nofollow attribute to the links that you do not intend to give a backlink. Also, I suggest you add functionality to open all links in a new tab. So that people do not leave your website. If you use docswrite.com, it does it all automatically.
