I’m excited to discuss Ghost CMS in this blog article.
Ghost CMS is a simple and effective blogging and website-building tool. Because of its focus on simplicity and minimalism, it’s the ideal platform for bloggers, writers, and small businesses who want to create appealing websites quickly and easily.
Why Ghost CMS?
Whether you choose to use Ghost(Pro) or self-host Ghost CMS, getting started is easy. Additionally, the multitude of customization options available make it simple to build a website that perfectly reflects your business and style.
Ghost CMS is open source, so it’s a great platform to represent yourself.
Free Hosting on GitLab
It is entirely free for me because I hosted it on GitLab. And I am running it from GitLab Pages.
📖 How to Create Static Version
I just created a static version of the website by using wget commands:
wget -r -nH -P docs -E -T 2 -np -k http://localhost:2368
This command creates an offline version of your Ghost CMS site.
I finally understand why index.html is not functioning properly due to the incorrect location given the theme. But don’t worry, GitHub will fix the issue after pushing it to GitHub.
Deploy to GitLab Pages
📖 Deployment Steps
- Push your static files to a GitLab repository
- Go to Settings → Pages
- Select Branch: main, Folder: /docs
- Your site will be live at your GitLab Pages URL
Example repository: https://github.com/kazi-ar-rafi/kaziarrafi.github.io
Conclusion
So why not give Ghost CMS a shot? It can be the best platform for your future blog or website project.
Good luck with your Ghost CMS setup!
