Are you using ghost?

I'm using Ghost as a headless CMS with Gatsby for my personal blog.
It's been a love hate relationship. I like the UI of the admin area but in the end it's really not setup to be a great headless CMS.

I'm running ghost pro and an aspire theme, and couldn't be happier. One item that we noticed early on is template customization creates a little hassle when new releases come out, but we're actually building a product to solve that problem now.

Yes I use ghost
My blog is https://treanches.digitalpress.blog

Yep! We're using ghost on our blog (https://blog.thecodex.me/). SEO has definitely been working as we've been seeing numbers grow on Ahrefs.

Thinking of switching to a subdirectory hosted on our main site, but ghost makes it difficult.

I am using ghost.

The main blog is at https://blog.boardiesitsolutions.com and I use the API on my personal site to grab the blog posts to show them on my personal site at https://chrisboard.co.uk

I am using the Ghost API on my blog https://storycreatorapp.com/blog/how-to-add-a-ken-burns-effect-to-your-videos

This makes it nice for me to share code with the rest of my codebase while being able to defer the data and other infrastructure stuff to Ghost.org.

One thing that did frusterate me is Ghost made it incredibly hard to host the site in a subdirectory. So with that and the desire to design my own stuff I decided to just use the API.

I've been pretty happy with that so far and feel just fine paying the $30 per month, which does feel higher than I would like but it's essentially acting as a database and has some nice convience.

Which makes me think that building the video editing API could be quite good for https://storycreatorapp.com

I have recently hosted a Ghost powered blog - https://www.exportdata.io/blog/. It is hosted in AWS on a subdirectory. Hopefully it will pay-off SEO wise in the long-term. BTW, I have bought a premium template from Fueko (Maido theme) and still need more posts written to be able to style it more nicely. The most awesome thing is their posts editor and great Google speed && performance. 😊

Yep, I just launched my Ghost-powered blog last week at https://www.valcanbuild.tech/.

I could've hosted it myself but I decided to go for their paid membership for two reasons:

• I didn't want to manage yet another website. I already do it for my products.
• I wanted to support them.

Spent a little bit of cash on a theme (like $25), customized it a bit and I got a pretty nice looking website really quickly.

I love their publishing model, reminds me of Medium which I used to use, so writing feels nice.

Yep, I'm running on my blog Ghost: https://philippmuens.com

I've been a fan and user since day one and and really enjoy the overall experience. The only major downside is the lack of good templates which don't slow your website down. I tried a ton and almost all of them get a poor performance score on web.dev.

Another "complain" I have is their recent focus on paid memberships / subscriptions. I can see where they're coming from but I'm afraid that this is causing bad user experiences for people who just want to blog for the sake of blogging.
