Ghost on Heroku

Ghost is a free and open-source blogging platform written in JavaScript and distributed under the MIT License, It a simple and a powerful platform to share your content

Visit the project's website at http://ghost.org, or read the docs on http://support.ghost.org.

We all know Heroku is a platform as a service (PaaS) that enables developers to build, run, and operate applications entirely in the cloud and most of it for free

So it's a good idea to maintain your Ghost powered blog for free on Heroku

To get started head over to my Github project ghostonheroku

Then simply click on 'Deploy to Heroku button'

Then you will be redirected to the Heroku website to create a New App

Here we are using JawsDB MySQL and Mailgun as addons don't worry both are free addons and then click deploy

It will take some time to configure the environment and build the app
After its deployed to Heroku, open the app

Congratulation 🎉 you have deployed your blog app to Heroku!

After deployment,

• First, visit Ghost at https://YOURAPPNAME.herokuapp.com/ghost to set up your admin account
• The app may take a few minutes to come to life
• Your blog will be publicly accessible at https://YOURAPPNAME.herokuapp.com
• If you subsequently set up a custom domain for your blog, you’ll need to update your Ghost blog’s PUBLIC_URL environment variable accordingly, heroku config:set PUBLIC_URL=https://www.example.com
