I have just updated my tutorial on how to install Ghost blog 0.4.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) or 12.04 (Precise), with Nginx as a reverse proxy and the ModSecurity web application firewall. The following extra topics are also covered (via links to original posts where appropriate):

  • Example nginx.conf with optimizations such as gzip and static file serving
  • Set up HTTPS (SSL) for your blog with a free StartCom certificate
  • Create a customized robots.txt and generate your blog's sitemap via script
  • Add Disqus comments, load them on demand as well as show counts in titles
  • Enable Google Analytics on your site and also track outbound links
  • How to set up DNS records for your blog if you use DigitalOcean
  • Upgrade instructions from Ghost version 0.3.3 (if you followed my older guide)
Click here to view my tutorial

The instructions had been fully tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit, Ubuntu 14.04 and 12.04 LTS servers. However, there is NO guarantee and use at your own risk.

Enjoy!

This is on my list of doing some day soon. Because, even though I rant a lot about nodejs and ghost, it looks beautiful... Nice to see that you keep your tutorials up to date :)
