FAQ
Questions publishers ask
Straight answers about Blogaly, trials, domains, payments and leaving.
What is Blogaly?
Blogaly is hosted publishing for independent writers and media businesses: a blog, newsletters, paid memberships, analytics and a custom domain, all running as one managed publication.
How fast can I launch?
Minutes. Pick a plan, claim your publication, and your site is live with HTTPS. The 14-day trial gives you room to publish and send before you pay anything.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. Point your domain at Blogaly and HTTPS is issued and renewed automatically — no certificates to manage and no downtime.
How do paid memberships work?
Create free and paid tiers, connect Stripe, and start taking payments. Publisher plans include 3 paid tiers and Business includes 10.
Do I own my content and audience?
Yes. Your posts, members and email list export anytime, and you can leave whenever you want. No lock-in, no hostage list.
Does Blogaly take a cut of my subscription revenue?
No. Blogaly charges a 0% platform fee on member payments, on every plan. Payments go to your own Stripe account; only Stripe’s standard processing fees apply.
Can I move from Substack, WordPress or Medium?
Yes. Import your posts, pages and subscribers from Substack, WordPress, Medium or another platform, or upload a CSV of members.
What analytics do I get?
Real-time stats on posts, audience growth and newsletter performance — without cookies, banners or third-party trackers.
What happens when the trial ends?
Pick a plan to keep publishing and sending. If you do nothing, your publication pauses — nothing is deleted and you can resume anytime.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, from your account portal. No calls, no retention maze.
