tl;dr: The skinny

Airlancer is best if...

  • You want to focus on writing, not website maintenance
  • You need built-in newsletters and free member accounts
  • Speed and SEO matter to you
  • You want one bill, not a dozen plugin subscriptions

WordPress might be better when...

  • You need a full business website beyond publishing
  • You require e-commerce with physical products
  • You want to build custom functionality with plugins

Airlancer is built for writers and publishers. WordPress is built for everything - which means more complexity for publishing-focused sites.

Sound familiar?

Real frustrations from WordPress users across the web. We built Airlancer because we felt them too.

Client's simple one-page website stopped working. Spent hours fixing it just to add one line to wp-config.php. Why does WordPress randomly stop working or get hacked?
