I think Ghost is absolutely awesome. It's slick, it has potential, there's a lot of enthusiasm for it. I have been running an instance since the first public release. There is no comparison between it and Wordpress though. The former is a neat new product while the latter is a full-blown CMS, with every SEO optimization one can think of, plethora of plugins and themes, and vast knowledge base, even if in the form of random blog and forum posts. Ghost doesn't even support analytics and comments natively. Plugins (apps?) are a planned feature! Not to mention that instead of copying the files over to any webhost and pointing to your MySQL, like you would with Wordpress, to use Ghost you need to install node, install Ghost's dependencies, configure and run supervisord, configure the webserver, and only then start Ghost. At which point you will be confused by its testing and production modes. Personally, I like it that way. Run an app, point nginx to it, done. You can add caching and ssl effortlessly on top of that without interfering with the application itself. But most people don't consider server administration a viable hobby.
