Buildfast Reviews

I was able to create a blog page for my website in minutes. Solid product!
And it even works with a free Notion account.

What I love the most:
- customizable Blog page layout, typography and colors
- can insert custom CSS and scripts
- newsletter form
- fast-loading webpages

Feature improvements:
- ability to add standalone pages like About, Contact, FAQ, etc.
- option to open external links (navbar and blog posts) in the same tab (right now it opens in a new tab)
- option to adjust website logo size without losing the aspect ratio
- option to add a description below the Footer logo
- customizable height of the Table of Contents pane

So far I'm impressed and it's nearly perfect 👌

I loveddddd it. But as a veteran blog designer and a content creator, I need to address some issues and features.

1. Need more blog themes/layouts (at least 5)
2. I am a writing focused content creator, so I need Featured Image and TOC off
3. Need typography customizations built in (without relying to custom CSS)
4. TOC customizations (on aside or Notion-like dash lines)
5. Logo for both light mode and dark mode
6. There is "Do_not_index" but I also need "Hide_from_site" (accessible by URL or google search)
7. Schema markup (important)
8. Gated blog (like a user needs to pay and login to see member-only blogs)
9. No custom URL option (currently URLs are picked from the headline as it is)
10. No language setting for SEO (it automatically shoes en but my blog lang is bn)
11. Custom font upload.

I really wanted to give it 5 tacos as like others. But some points are very critical like 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10. I am holding that 1 star for these critical points only.

Make these happen and I will update it to 5 tacos.

I had been using WordPress and Typecho to write my blog, but both platforms require various configurations that detract from the essence of writing. Notion is the platform I've been using consistently; whether for life or work, this tool transforms articles into blogs, bringing writing back to its core, which is quite nice.

*Advantages of Notion
-Provides excellent stability in writing and management
-Easier and more efficient management compared to WordPress
-No need for updates or version management

*Speed and Service Development
-No separate efforts are needed to improve speed
-Buildfast service offers good performance as a standard

*Custom Domain Setup
-Initially faced difficulties, but after moving to Cloudflare's DNS, the setup was completed easily
-Anticipate the ability to easily set it up without scheduling separate meetings by adding it to the document

*Customer Support
-Fast 1:1 support was very impressive and helpful

It's a seriously satisfying LTD purchase. 5 tacos!
While the Buildfast is not yet perfect, it is expected to develop rapidly.

Just what I was looking for - I'm tech-savvy but low on coding knowledge. I already use Notion for life admin, so using it as a backend for my article content, paired with Buildfast to provide an attractive website interface, is fantastic. Good customer service when I had a question, too.
