G’day everyone,
Glad to be part of this community. We recently moved CertBetter.com to Ghost (headless with Next.js) after 2 years on WordPress. Been a WP blogger since 2009, so this was a big shift.
Quick background: CertBetter helps companies get ISO certified faster. Our blog converts complex ISO standards into digestible content. WordPress worked, but managing content became messy with scattered plugins, performance issues, the usual. Found Ghost a month ago and made the switch.
What’s working:
-
Publishing is smooth
-
Team loves the editor (no more complaints)
-
Site loads noticeably faster
-
Clean separation between content and frontend
Couple feature requests (I’ll post in the Ideas cat as well)
-
Calendar view that shows existing scheduled posts (like social schedulers do)
-
AI-powered internal linking suggestions based on content relevancy (if exists - please advise)
Overall: Ghost is killing it. Clean, fast, and exactly what we needed. No regrets leaving WordPress behind.
Anyone else running Ghost headless? Would love to hear your setup.
