About

Publish online, build a business, work from home. Ghost makes it simple to publish content online, grow an audience with email newsletters, and make money from premium memberships. Publish on your terms. You control the design, the content, the experience, and everything in between. No broken algorithms or social network rules. You're in charge. Create a membership business to develop a direct relationship with your audience and generate sustainable, recurring revenue from your creative work; on your terms. Ghost is the world’s most popular open source headless Node.js CMS — it ships with a default admin client and front-end, but you can also swap them out with your own JAMstack. Explore hundreds of integrations for Ghost to speed up your workflow, or build your own custom integrations with our open source developer SDKs.

About

No more databases, comment moderation, or pesky updates to install, just your content. Markdown, Liquid, HTML & CSS go in. Static sites come out ready for deployment. Permalinks, categories, pages, posts, and custom layouts are all first-class citizens here. Sick of dealing with hosting companies? GitHub Pages are powered by Jekyll, so you can easily deploy your site using GitHub for free, custom domain name and all. Jekyll is a static site generator. It takes text written in your favorite markup language and uses layouts to create a static website. You can tweak the site’s look and feel, URLs, the data displayed on the page, and more. The Jekyll gem makes a jekyll executable available to you in your terminal. Typically you’ll use jekyll serve while developing locally and jekyll build when you need to generate the site for production. To change Jekyll’s default build behavior have a look through the configuration options.

Cons

  • Overall it's an outstanding website platform.

  • - Lacks the flexibility and ease of WordPress. Also takes more effort so setup.
