Is there such a thing as an "ideal blog platform for a startup"? I don't think so. Is there even such a thing as an "ideal blog platform"? No, because "ideal" is subjective. Are you a CEO type who wants to avoid the muckiness of having to write code or do any customization? Then Wordpress might not be ideal for you - or at least you should expect to pay a few hundred dollars to someone to install + customize it for you. After that, maybe it's ideal. Are you a developer who just wants the blog to get the #### out of your way so you can blog? Then a hosted medium or ghost blog or even blogger would be perfect. Or would it be better to have a blog in which you do absolutely nothing but write? Hell, host it on github then. There is no such thing as "ideal" but there is "ideal for you", of course. I recently settled (again) for Wordpress for my personal blog. It was a combination of "I already know it" and "I can pay $50 for a nice template that isn't overused and accomplishes what I want without any fuss". It is ideal today for me for those reasons. That may change though...
