Step by step

  1. 01

    Choose your topic and rhythm

    Decide what you write about and how often. frascati has no blog CMS: each new article is added by asking in the chat. That suits an article now and then, not daily posts by several authors.

  2. 02

    Start the trial and describe the blog

    Start the 3-day trial: a card is required, and you get 20 credits. Describe the site and the blog in a few sentences; there is no separate blog template. The first version takes about two minutes.

  3. 03

    Add your first articles

    Paste the text of two or three articles into the chat. frascati turns each one into a page with clear headings, and uses your own photos or fitting ones from its stock library.

  4. 04

    Add the pages around it

    An about page and a contact page tell readers who writes and how to reach you. The contact form sends each message to your email.

  5. 05

    Add a sign-up form if you want one

    A form can collect email addresses, and each entry reaches you as a form message. Through a webhook, for example with Zapier, Make or n8n, each address can also go straight to your newsletter tool, which sends the newsletter itself.

  6. 06

    Publish and keep writing

    One click puts the blog online. For each new article, paste it into the chat, check the preview and publish again.

Questions

Is this better than WordPress?
It depends on how you publish. WordPress is open source, with a full CMS and a huge plugin and theme ecosystem; Ghost is a publishing platform for blogs and newsletters. frascati has no CMS, but also no plugins, themes or updates to manage. For an occasional article on a business site that is enough; for a publication, a CMS fits better.
How do I add a new article?
Paste it into the chat and ask frascati to add it as a new article. Check the preview, then publish again. Most changes use less than 1 credit.
Is the blog good for search engines?
frascati writes a title and description for every page and uses semantic HTML, with one h1 per page and alt texts on photos. Today all pages of a published site share one address and are built by JavaScript in the browser, so articles do not appear as pages of their own in search results. With Pro and Business you can set the site's title and description yourself. Rankings depend on what you write, and nobody can promise them.
Can I import my WordPress posts?
Not automatically. Paste each post's text into the chat and frascati adds it as an article. If you paste the address of your current website, frascati reads the text of that page and uses your real details.
