I'm not convinced this is going to work, but it's an attempt to get more people asking install questions in Slack rather than opening github issues. Also fix broken link to Ghost(Pro) further down, Github stripped the HTML so converted to Markdown.

![Ghost is a simple, powerful publishing platform that allows you to share your stories with the world.](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/120485/6626501/b2bb072c-c8ff-11e4-8e1a-2e78e68fd5c3.png)

The project is maintained by a non-profit organisation called the **Ghost Foundation**, along with an amazing group of independent [contributors](https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/contributors). We're trying to make publishing software that changes the shape of online journalism.

# Deploying Ghost
|
||
|
||

Save yourself time and headaches with our fully managed **[Ghost(Pro)](https://ghost.org/pricing/)** service. Deploy a new instance of Ghost in a couple of clicks running on [DigitalOcean](https://digitalocean.com)’s rock solid infrastructure, with a worldwide CDN thrown in at no extra charge.
|
||
|
||
All revenue from **Ghost(Pro**) goes to the Ghost Foundation, the non-profit org which funds the maintenance and further development of Ghost.
|
||
|
||
[Other options](http://support.ghost.org/deploying-ghost/) are also available if you prefer playing around with servers by yourself.

# Staying Up to Date
|
||
|
||
When a new version of Ghost comes out, you'll want to look over these [upgrade instructions](http://support.ghost.org/how-to-upgrade/) for what to do next.
|
||
|
||
You can talk to other Ghost users on [our forums](https://ghost.org/forum) or chat with Ghost developers in our [public Slack team](https://ghost.org/slack/) (it's pretty awesome). We have a public meeting every Tuesday at 5:30pm London time.
|
||
|
||
New releases are announced on the [dev blog](http://dev.ghost.org/tag/releases/). You can subscribe by email or follow [@TryGhost_Dev](https://twitter.com/tryghost_dev) on Twitter, if you prefer your updates bite-sized and facetious.
