You could install Ghost on a generic $5 VPS. Most people who try spend an evening on the install, another on hardening, another on backups, and then it falls over the first time the kernel updates. We've done that work — every ghost blog plan is tuned, monitored, and updateable in one click.
No black boxes — here's the exact software shipped on every Ghost Blog VPS plan.
The Ghost Blog VPS image ships with: Ghost + MySQL + Caddy. We don't fork or patch — we use the official upstream releases, with sensible defaults for our hardware. Update on your schedule, not ours.
Everything runs in containers via Docker, so updates are atomic. If a release breaks something, roll back to the previous image in 30 seconds. No 'I broke prod by running apt upgrade' moments.
The same KVM hypervisor and enterprise NVMe drives we use across every OliveVPS region.
Pick from 20+ datacenter regions worldwide. Ghost Blog VPS VPS pricing stays the same in every region — the hardware specs, the bandwidth allowance, the SSD speed. The only thing that changes is your latency to end users.
Ghost is faster, cleaner, and built specifically for publishing + memberships. WordPress is vastly more flexible and has 60,000 plugins. Pick Ghost if you write content and sell subscriptions; pick WordPress if you need WooCommerce, custom plugins, or maximum theme freedom.
Yes — the open-source version has every feature except the official Ghost(Pro) cloud platform. Members, newsletters, Stripe, themes, all included.
Yes — Ghost has a Substack importer. Posts, subscriber list, payment data all transfer. You'll need to set up Stripe separately to maintain paid subs.
Sending 10k newsletter emails takes ~30 mins on the Pro plan. Subscriber list itself scales to 100k+ without trouble. Email delivery is the bottleneck — pair with Mailgun or Postmark for high volumes.
Order in 60 seconds. Server live in 30. No setup fees, 7-day money-back guarantee.
