Review on Movable Type by Scott Rao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty good platform but long response time from customer service

I like that it's easy to use, has lots of templates (including some free ones), and allows for very detailed customization. It can be slow at times when you have many posts or comments in your blog. Also, sometimes there are problems with the layout of blogs - they don't look right until after being published. The support staff also seems to take forever to respond to emails. But once those issues are resolved everything works great! We've been able to quickly set up several different types of websites using this product including my own personal site as well as sites for our church and school.

Pros
  • Great template options; good search function within WordPress admin interface so we didn’t need an external tool suchas Google Search Consoleto find out about duplicate content penalties etc.; ability upload audio files from iPhone if necessary via Dropbox folder option which is quite convenient
Cons
  • Slower than other platforms
  • Does not always return correct results even though query syntax looks
