Everything you need to know about Ghost 6 on Magic Pages. Can't find what you're looking for? Send me a message and I'll help you personally.
No additional cost! Both ActivityPub and Native Analytics are included in all Magic Pages plans at no extra charge.
While other hosting providers might charge extra for these premium features, I believe everyone should have access to the full Ghost 6 experience. No usage limits, no surprise fees.
ActivityPub only distributes new content published after you enable it. Your existing posts stay on your Ghost site where they've always been.
This is how the ActivityPub protocol works across all platforms—it's designed for real-time distribution, not retroactive sharing. Think of it as starting a new conversation rather than replaying old ones.
Zero technical knowledge required! Magic Pages handles all the complex infrastructure so you don't have to.
You literally just toggle switches in your Ghost admin panel. If something isn't working as expected, message me directly and I'll help you sort it out. That's the Magic Pages promise—technical complexity disappears so you can focus on creating.
Absolutely! Both features can be toggled on or off anytime with a single click. Nothing is permanent.
Your data remains yours whether features are enabled or not. If you disable ActivityPub, your existing followers and interactions are preserved. If you turn off analytics, your historical data stays accessible. You're always in control.
About 30 seconds per feature. Seriously, that's it!
Go to your Ghost admin settings, find the feature toggle, click it, and you're done. The infrastructure is already running on Magic Pages servers—you're just enabling access to it. It's like flipping a light switch in a house that's already wired for electricity.
100% private and secure. All Ghost 6 infrastructure runs on Magic Pages' own servers in EU data centers.
Your analytics data never leaves our infrastructure—no Google Analytics, no third-party tracking. ActivityPub data is stored in our secure MySQL clusters. Everything is GDPR-compliant by design, and I personally maintain these systems daily to ensure your data stays safe.

I needed a new home for my former Substack newsletter. Magic Pages let me import the subscribers, even though I had already deleted my Substack account. Honestly, Jannis is the best part about the service! Ghost is great, but Ghost is inscrutable. Jannis offered me all the help that I needed.
