Ghost is one of the critics most liked content management systems available on the market. It\u2019s often compared to the other big player in the industry, WordPress. And that is no coincidence, the developer behind Ghost was the leader of the WordPress user interface team.<\/p>\n
In this Ghost review, we will detail what we think of this content management system.<\/p>\n
Ghost is primarily a blogging platform that\u2019s designed for website owners who want to have full control of their website build. The primary way to design your website is through code. So, if you have limited coding skills, then you might be at a loss with this system.<\/p>\n
An example of this is when you\u2019re publishing text content. On most CMS systems, when you want to format text, like amend a heading, or to underline certain text, you have to select the text and press a button on the dashboard to make the change. On Ghost, the process is completely in code. You just have to type the instruction out around the words you want formatted.<\/p>\n
For some people this could be tiresome and for others it\u2019s very complicated. There is some help at the bottom of the input page, but for some, this will not be enough to help them publish content as they see fit.<\/p>\n
However, there are also lots of similarities between Ghost and WordPress, another reason why these two programs are often compared.<\/p>\n
The significant similarity is that the base programming for Ghost is free. It is JavaScript based and one of the nicest features is that it\u2019s minimalist. This can be great for search engine ranks because there\u2019s less coding than some of the other code heavy CMS programs available on the market.<\/p>\n
