About a year to 6 months ago I decided I wanted to try out the hosted version at ghost.org. It seemed I had already used up my free trial some time ago. So long ago I don't even recall doing it. I emailed support to see if I could get another trial. I was interested in paying for the pro version but wanted to make sure it was actually worth $29.

I NEVER got a response from their support about my request. Just flat out ignored. Haven't been back since...

I totally understand that you feel ignored, however I can assure you our support team never ignores emails - so something must've gone wrong either with the original email or our reply.

We're always happy to provide another free trial - or you can signup again with an email address variation.

That’s a bummer. Sometimes small teams get very overwhelmed, and sometimes spam filters go awry. Did you try emailing them again, or contacting them on twitter?

From what I can tell they are a team of eight with one dedicated support person, I empathize immensely with her.
