Website Builder for App Business

Hi,
I would like to increase organic reach via my Ghost website for my mobile and web app (SaaS). Currently it is mainly available in German.
Because it is a consumer app, I want to have it multilingual.

I just realized, that Ghost does not support multilingual websites 😢
There are workarounds, but I would like to go with a clean solution.

Now I am looking for an alternative.
Requirements would be:

  • Multilingual
  • Loads fast
  • CMS, that can be used by Non-coders
  • Blog
  • Landing Pages
  • Full-text-search can be integrated
  • A/B-tests can be integrated

I have been using Gatsby in the past, then migrated to Ghost for the ease of use.

Which are your favorites?

    Just a thought:

    • export all the content from ghost
    • translate it
    • import into a second install of ghost (e.g. on https://secondlang.yourapp.com)
      Maybe that's a quick workaround until you find a better way.

      Thanks Jan, love your idea for its simplicity with maximum outcome!

  2. 1

    Wordpress is pretty much the only solution, but that would require a bunch of plugins and not sure they have good full text search.

    AB testing is not something most CMSs have. Folks usually use Google optimise.

    I might be able to "hack" together a solution with https://versoly.com/

    You would be able to have example.com and example.com/de but they would be two different sites inside of Versoly.

    The hack would be they could share the same theme and domain.

    Once I add multi-lang support the hack can be removed then.
