Ghost Development in Chichester
Building publications on Ghost for Chichester organisations, where memberships and email are part of the platform rather than plugins bolted onto it. Subscriptions, paid tiers, member-only content and newsletter delivery are native — which is the reason to choose it over a general content management system, and the reason it fits publishing rather than general websites.
Why this comes up
The problem
A newsletter, a members area and a paid tier are being assembled from three separate services alongside the website.
What you get
What we deliver
- Membership tiers and access rules configured against the publishing model
- Newsletter delivery set up properly, including sending domain authentication
- Theme built or adapted, since presentation is where customisation happens
- Content structure planned using tags, since Ghost's taxonomy is deliberately simple
- Integrations connected where analytics or payments need external systems
- Editorial workflow established for however many people publish

Ghost Development in Chichester — common questions
- What does Ghost do that a general CMS does not?
- Memberships and email natively. Paid subscriptions, member-only posts and newsletter sending are built in rather than assembled from plugins and third-party services, which removes an entire category of integration work for a publication.
- Where is it a poor fit?
- Anything that is not fundamentally a publication. The content model is deliberately simple — posts, pages and tags — so a site needing several structured content types with relationships between them is working against the platform rather than with it.
- How much does the sending setup matter?
- A great deal, because deliverability determines whether the newsletter arrives. Domain authentication configured properly is what keeps messages out of spam folders, and it is the part most likely to be skipped during a hurried launch.
- Can the design be fully customised?
- Yes — themes are templates you control, so presentation is genuinely open. What is fixed is the underlying content model, so customisation is about how content appears rather than about introducing new kinds of content.
- Do you work with businesses across West Sussex?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Chichester and the surrounding West Sussex area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Chichester businesses do you usually work with?
- Booking and ticketing for arts and marine operators, built to survive a season that carries the whole year. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Agriculture, Marine, Arts & Culture and Retail.
- Do you cover the areas around Chichester?
- Yes — we work throughout South East, including Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton. Chichester is an urban area of roughly 30,000+, and we take on work across the wider West Sussex region rather than the city boundary alone.
