Buildfast Reviews

Been really please both with the features offered on BuildFast and also the backend support from the dev team. Parul and his team are quick to get replies back via email and even took time for a support call to go over some things on the site I've set up. Top notch and looking forward to some of the new features in the roadmap.

I previously used WordPress for blogging for several months, but the maintenance and management felt overwhelming. This tool’s seamless integration with Notion as a backend is a game-changer, offering significant advantages. I’m excited to explore even more benefits as I continue using it.

I'm fairly comfortable in Wordpress although I'm a complete beginner with SEO. When it came time to set up a landing page for my lastest side project, I wanted a solution that could simplify the process.

Although I don't have metrics to show regarding SEO yet, Buildfast delivers a product that is straightforward and looks great.. No questions about it.

I find the product incredibly useful, even as someone who is not a heavy Notion user. Managing a blog from Notion is fairly intuitive and Buildfast does a great job of giving you everything you need!

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.
