The subject of this article is the memory of popular poets on the internet, with the aim of preserving the memory of popular poetry, particularly their life stories and their work, through the adoption of technological resources. In this case we focus on the use of WordPress in facilitating the preservation of and access to poetic artifacts of cordel literature. The investigation occurred in two phases: Phase 1, strictly documentary and bibliographic; and Phase 2, of an applied nature. It is concluded that the use of online tools can facilitate preservation and access to the artifacts of collective memory, in some way echoing the voices silenced - by coercive processes or not - considering that cordel literature is built on a social critique.  In this sense, this work should contribute to induce in other contexts new memory preservation experiences of popular culture, which is also national culture.
