In this Lunch and Learn, Graeme Tidd explains how Ghost.org works and how you can use it to elevate your website.

He shares how to easily create a blog or newsletter-focused website, build a loyal audience and convert subscribers into paying members, all while maintaining full control of your content.

Graeme is an experienced web designer and business adviser who takes a holistic approach to digital marketing. He uses Ghost to build powerful, future-proof websites that can help you gain subscribers, send posts and newsletters via email, charge for subscriptions, get donations and much more.

Over 400 million websites are built with WordPress, but so many are simply not effective and slowly fade into obscurity. Ghost was created by former WordPress staff to combat the many issues WordPress has as a catch-all platform.

Today, over three million websites rely on Ghost for one core purpose: delivering results.

Topics covered in this session

  • How to use Ghost.org to create a blog or newsletter-focused website easily, get subscribers and build an audience

  • The key benefits of focusing on subscriber acquisition and owning your audience with top branding and marketing tips

Websites for businesses publishing regular content. Get subscribers and send posts and newsletters via email. Create payment tiers and charge for premium content. Quick, easy and enjoyable to use. Being a hybrid designer and SFEDI-qualified business adviser also means I can provide valuable input on how your website will align with your goals, identify challenges, provide solutions and help you make important decisions, giving you the best chance of success. I use the incredibly powerful Ghost.org platform to create websites - I explain everything here. Your website will be both easy and enjoyable to use. I also use WordPress for showcase websites, when using Ghost would be overkill. 💥 Get a powerful, customised website that gets subscribers and sends your posts and newsletters via email 💥 Build a community and get customers 💥 Charge for subscriptions or get donations 💥 Own your audience My goal is to make life easier for you by creating an impactful website that helps you build an audience and cultivate a strong community. Many of my clients are unsure about what they want and how they should approach the development of their online presence. They want an engaged audience, to build a community and get paid - but don't know where to start. Challenges may extend to their branding and marketing strategy - especially in new ventures. I can help. I work with you collaboratively and use video, live online sessions and email to keep you informed throughout the design process. No jargon. No hassle. At the point of sign-off, you will have full ownership of your website and everything you need to make it work. I have worked as a website and graphic designer for over 12 years. I also work at Sheffield Hallam University as a business coach. I have extensive experience in training and workshop design and delivery at all levels. I have worked for Peter Jones CBE and Young Enterprise UK. In 2023 I won an Outstanding Support Award for my work at SHU; I was nominated again in 2024.

I have gained confidence and professional skills that will benefit my future career progression, thanks to Graeme's passionate approach to his work. Graeme will regularly check in on me and all other students and dedicates his time to being the best mentor he can be. I am very grateful for Graeme's dedication and believe he deserves to be recognised for his outstanding work." - Student 🙏 "Graeme was willing to listen to my thoughts and ideas, offer his expert opinions on those ideas and work collaboratively to develop something I'm proud of." - Dr Chris Platts, Founder
