Export conversion can lose data
Converting Ghost's JSON export to CSV or XML can drop author links, categories and featured image URLs, so the mapping is checked.
Leave Ghost behind.

Why businesses are leaving Ghost for WordPress
These are the issues owners most often report when they outgrow Ghost.
Large JSON files
Some importers are reported to struggle with very large JSON files, so exports are split into checked batches.
Ghost cards break
Callout bars, code blocks and bookmark cards are reported to break in some imports, so they are rebuilt as WordPress blocks.
Images need re-hosting
Feature and post images may not import cleanly, so each one is copied into the WordPress media library.
Memberships and newsletters
Ghost members and paid subscriptions depend on Ghost's own services, so that handover is planned separately.
Legacy import problems
Problems in older posts can come from earlier imports, so each post is checked, not assumed correct.

A note from the founder
You'll work with real people, not a ticket system
Hi, I'm Anup. I started Transfer to WordPress because I kept meeting business owners who were paying too much for a website they couldn't fully control.
Every migration is rebuilt by hand by our team, and you can message us directly at any point. If something isn't right, we fix it. That's how we've earned a 4.9 rating from more than 600 businesses.

Questions about moving from Ghost
Yes. Ghost's JSON export includes posts, pages, tags and authors, and we use it to import content with checks.
We check that author-to-post and tag links survive the import, since some conversions have dropped them.
We rebuild Ghost cards as WordPress blocks, so they display correctly and stay editable.
Member access and newsletters depend on Ghost's services, so we plan that handover and set up WordPress newsletter tools.
Ghost post addresses are kept where possible and redirected where they change, with rankings monitored after launch.
It depends on post count and export size. We confirm the timeline after reviewing your export.
No. We build the WordPress version on a private preview link while your Ghost site stays live. We switch your domain only after you approve the new site, so there is zero downtime.
