Bookmarks
When using a URL with the right meta information, it can show the page title, excerpt, author, publisher and even a preview image. This is a great way to share links from sites that don't have automatic embeds.
Products

Images
Once you start mixing text and image cards creatively, the whole narrative of the story changes. Suddenly, you're working in a new format. Once inserted you can blend images beautifully into your content at different sizes (normal, full, and wide) and add captions wherever needed.
Gallery
Ghost supports image galleries for up to 9 images at a time, all of which are responsively optimised and organised to look their best no matter how many images you add or remove.
Headers
Make a statement with bold section headers in your posts and pages. Insert a header card to add a full width divider that can include a title, subheading, accent color or image background, and a button.
