What brings you here?
A publisher is choosing between a WordPress editorial site and a dedicated Ghost publication for its authors.
A short decision path
Choose the next step
Choose a stack for the content, checkout or custom application requirements rather than from the app name alone.
Set owners for domain, roles, content, payment or publishing setup, and a recoverable launch point.
Test the visitor journey on the actual domain, then document who maintains the stack and business plugins.
