About this site
fastCMS is a software product site selling a self-hosted blogging CMS. The product is built on vanilla PHP 8.2 with a single-file SQLite database, serves cached static HTML through Apache, and is marketed on speed and simplicity: no framework, no build step and no database to create.
Version 2 adds AI features on the admin side. Buyers connect their own Claude, Gemini or DeepSeek key and can run the blog on Autopilot (write, illustrate and schedule articles via cron), Co-pilot (write on demand, publish manually) or fully manual with editor tools. A Niche Finder scores niche ideas, picks a sub-niche and builds an article plan from real Google searches. Other listed features include AI and stock images with alt text, 18 themes (6 built in, 12 free downloads), ad slots and AdSense support, affiliate short links, email sign-ups, Google and Bing insights with one-click AI fixes, encrypted API keys, restore points and checksummed 1-click updates.
The site itself is a full marketing and support presence: features, themes, demo, speed, pricing, docs, FAQ, contact, a blog name generator and a newsletter sign-up. Pricing is a one-time fee starting from €30, so revenue comes from license sales rather than subscriptions.
A new owner would be taking on both the website and the ongoing maintenance and support of the CMS, including updates, theme downloads and the support inbox.
