Ghost Development in Glasgow

Building publications on Ghost for Glasgow 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

Working in Glasgow

Scotland

Glasgow's engineering and renewables base gives it an industrial character quite unlike Edinburgh's, and Scottish clients should note that contracts here fall under Scots law, which we account for in engagement terms.

Engineering and renewables clients dominate, with a recurring need for monitoring and reporting across distributed sites.

Ghost Development in Glasgow — 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 Glasgow City?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Glasgow and the surrounding Glasgow City area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Glasgow businesses do you usually work with?
Engineering and renewables clients dominate, with a recurring need for monitoring and reporting across distributed sites. Beyond that we work across Engineering, Financial Services, Life Sciences, Creative Industries and Renewables.
Do you cover the areas around Glasgow?
Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh. Glasgow is an urban area of roughly 1,000,000+, and we take on work across the wider Glasgow City region rather than the city boundary alone.
