Started writing on Ghost just a couple of days ago – so far I love everything!
I wanted a tiny blog that is deeply integrated with my site and so I'm using Ghost as a headless blog – I'm using it's Content API to fetch my posts in JSON.
This lets me show my blog posts however I want inside my site – looks like this:
https://microangel.co/blog
For me:
✏️ I love the editor, super nice to write, upload images, set excerpt, etc.
🛠 Content API is very sool and so easy to set up.
💾 I could host it on my own, but I didn't feel like I want to start thinking about how to install, should I take a new droplet on DigitalOcean, etc. So I went with cloud hosted Ghost.
💵 And it's great news that Ghost now has $9/mo starter package!
And I just pushed a button and upgraded to 4.0 👏

@raunometsa Great way to go Raul. What is your stack? How custom is your site in terms of ghosts plans?
@mjsand Hi Mark! Building it with PHP on Laravel. Not sure what you mean by "custom in terms of ghost plans", but I'm using a $9/mo Ghost and fetch posts data through API to show on my custom blog written in PHP. Because: 1) I want the blog to be inside my own site and 2) I don't want to learn how to build Ghost themes.
I'm a sucker for a good looking dashboard – but this is SO much more than that! Congrats to everyone at Ghost on what looks like a fantastic release. This is HUGE!
Newsletter curation and discovery is one of the biggest problems facing readers and writers, and Ghost is the best solution I’ve seen. Plus, it’s just beautiful. Congrats!
