Should i go for Ghost ?

[Claudiu]

I dont really like the fact that wordpress is not lightweight, as it used to be back in the days. It seems heavy to me, so i researched alternatives. Ghost seems to be the best alternative as i can post related articles and also the seo part, from what i understand, is handled well with it.

Do you have experience with this cms ? How do you like it, or what makes you stick with it ?

Have a read at this post https://granwehr.com/blog/ghost-seo, there are upsides and downsides of using ghost, if you dont know node.js and you need some specific functions then you might be better off with WP.

Hey there!

We're Ghost professionals in the web development realm. Let me share my thoughts on Ghost. It's amazing, with a nice UI/UX that we love to use, and so do our clients. It's fast, SEO-friendly, and a strong support for creators, publishers, and bloggers. One of its unique features is the built-in newsletter and the ability to lock content at different tiers for various subscribers. In my opinion, it's one of the most visually appealing CMS out there.

However, of course, there are some downsides too. Many people end up with growing businesses and start looking for more and more features. Unfortunately, Ghost is quite limited compared to WordPress and other CMS. We usually meet specific client needs through various hacks and tricks to achieve what they want. Ghost doesn't provide easy template customization, so if you need to add or change something significant, you have to dive into the code or hire expert developers.

To sum it up, we like it and we hope it will keep getting better. Ghost is under active development, and new features are added regularly. It looks like it's the main WordPress competitor nowadays among open-source content management system solutions.

Yeah it was rewritten by it, but source was my clunky text. Otherwise it is hard to command it write something meaningful. It's amazing how we all build 6th sense to be able to recognize it As non-native speaker I wanted to to have better output. Nevermind I hope people will not be upset about it.

If you choose Ghost then you can only use Adsense for the ads. It does not support other ad platforms.
