Considered Both Products	Ghost MB Mike Blumenthal Co-founder Chose Ghost It is simpler, headless, faster than WordPress. The core functionality is focused on subscription membership which is a bloated add on for WordPress. The simplicity has a cost as WordPress, while complicated, offers more expansion opportunities.

Likelihood to Recommend	It is well suited for distributed writing and publishing with a subscription component.and well suited for simultaneous deployment to email and the web. Its pricing for a very small group (3 or more) tends to the expensive and login across multiple different devices can be aggravating.
