      I can't over-emphasize this enough for folks at the earliest stage of building your SaaS. Put the application on a subdomain like app.your-product[dot]com and have your main .com be an easy to use CMS marketing site like Wordpress or Webflow. So annoying to unwind after the fact.

      I have gone back and forth on this over the years. You really can't beat the ability for non-technical people to push content at the main website. At same time, being able to do (often trivial!) amounts of marketing code is a superpower, and I've found it awkward via e.g. WP.

      Hopefully the headless CMSes will come along fast enough such that you can get best of both worlds with a day or two on putting a render-the-content thing together in your stack of choice.

          After scratchwriting a CMS for my first software business I told clients "Every software company should have their own CMS; it's just too useful not to do, and once you have it you can bolt everything in." 80% of the effort wasted... but that last 20% could be half the business.

          WordPress can already be used in headless mode. Use it for admin, then use the API to generate a static site and deploy to @Netlify. This is how @OurWorldInData does it, works pretty well

          I finally saw benefit of a subdomain too late (this week!!), and just yesterday built automation to “render-the-content” exported from Webflow (+upload static files). “git push” still required for now (+URL map for new pages) but no other “coding”. Experiment—TBD if this is wise!

          WP has a json api.

          We just did this using Sanity on our new company site. Custom components let us build cool stuff, but anyone can add pages in the CMS
