Typoza compared with the other blogging tools
Twelve pages built the same way: the two tools point by point, what the other one does better, what moving costs, and when to pick it over us.
Free to start, no card. You can export your posts at any time, on every plan.
All of them, side by side
Two sentences per tool: who it suits, and what it costs once you are in. Each tool's page has the full table.
| The tool | Who it suits | What it costs you |
|---|---|---|
| WordPress | Sites that do more than publish: a shop, bookings, a members' area. | Each plugin is yours to update, and to replace when its author gives up on it. |
| Wix | Businesses that need a whole site, shop or bookings included, built without code. | Moving your posts to another platform means copying them by hand. |
| Squarespace | Portfolios, studios and small shops that want a polished site without a designer. | The blog sits inside a designed page layout, and you edit it like a page. |
| Substack | A paid newsletter that earns from its first subscribers, with nothing to pay up front. | A percentage of every paid subscription, and a design with few options. |
| Medium | Writers who want readers this week and a chance of payouts, without building a site. | Medium decides who sees your posts, and your followers stay on Medium. |
| Ghost | Writers who charge their readers, or who want the software on their own server. | Self-hosting means a server to maintain; reshaping a theme means editing its templates. |
| Blogger | A free blog with AdSense and its own domain. | A rich-text editor, no newsletter, and a backup in Atom XML. |
| Notion | People who already work in Notion and want a page online in minutes. | No feed, no newsletter, and your own domain only through a paid add-on. |
| Webflow | Designers, and anyone who wants a site drawn to the pixel and can run a CMS model. | A blog starts as a CMS project, and hosting it takes a Site plan with the CMS. |
| Tumblr | Short posts that need readers today, from a community that passes them along. | Reach runs through the dashboard, and a new custom domain goes through Tumblr's registrar. |
| beehiiv | Newsletters run as a business, with growth tools and paid subscriptions. | Built around the inbox: the website follows the newsletter. |
| Hashnode | Developers who want a developer community reading them from the first post. | Your blog lives inside a developer network, and your own domain sits in the paid tier. |
One page per tool
Typoza or WordPress
