The setup perk

We'll set your
theme up for you.

Buy a theme, start Ghost Pro through our link, and a Certified Ghost Expert installs it, matches it to the live demo, connects your domain, and hands back a site that is ready to publish. No extra charge.

Ghost pays us a small commission when you sign up through our link. It costs you nothing extra, and it is what pays for the setup.

The price is the same

Ghost Pro costs exactly what it costs on ghost.org. The commission comes out of Ghost's side, never yours.

The account is yours

You sign up in your own name and hold the billing. We only get in when you invite us, and you can remove us any time.

The builder does it

The same Certified Ghost Expert who built the theme is the one setting it up.

How it works

Three steps,
then you publish.

Nothing here needs a call. The whole thing runs over email, on your schedule.

  1. Start Ghost Pro through our link

    Pick whichever plan fits the size of your audience. The signup, the price, and the free trial all work exactly as they normally do.

  2. Email us two things

    That is all we need to check your signup and book you in.

    • Your theme order number. It is at the top of the receipt we emailed you when you bought it.
    • The email address you used for Ghost Pro. That is how we confirm the signup came through our link.

    No order number to hand? Send the email address you bought the theme with and we will find it for you.

  3. Invite us, and we build it out

    Add us to your site for a few days. We hand it back ready to publish, walk you through it, then take ourselves off the account. Most setups are done within two business days.

The full scope

Exactly what
we do, and don't.

A free setup only stays free if both sides know where it ends. So here is the whole boundary, in one place, before you sign up for anything.

What we set up

Your theme, installed and current. Uploaded, activated, and running the newest release.

Settings matched to the live demo. Colors, fonts, logo, and layout, so your site opens looking like the one you bought.

Menus, homepage, and footer built out. Real sections in real places, not an empty shell.

Your own domain connected. Pointed at your site with the padlock working, and we tell you what to change at your domain provider.

Newsletter checked with a real send. One test email out the door, so you know it works before your first post.

A walkthrough of your own site. A short recorded tour of where everything lives, so you can publish without asking us.

What lives elsewhere

Moving your existing posts across. Bringing a site over from somewhere else is its own project. Content migration

Design or code changes to the theme. We set the theme up as it ships. Reshaping it is separate work. Theme customization

Setting up your own server. This perk is tied to Ghost Pro. Self-hosting is a different job. Self-hosting setup

Translating the theme. Your theme already speaks 60 languages. Reworking the wording is separate. Theme translation

Writing your posts or finding images. The site is ready. What goes in it is yours.

Ongoing work after the handover. Questions about the theme are always free by email. Standing help is a retainer. Ask about retainers

Who it is for

Two ways in.

The perk needs a fresh Ghost Pro signup, because that is what pays for it. If you are already set up, the same work is available on its own.

Free setup

The perk

For publishers starting on Ghost Pro through our link.

  • You bought one of our themes.
  • You are new to Ghost Pro, or moving to it from your own server, and you start through our link.
  • Your trial has turned into a paid plan.
  • You claim it within 30 days of buying the theme. One site per customer.
Start Ghost Pro

Setup on its own

$79

For everyone already on Ghost, wherever it runs.

  • The same work, by the same person, to the same scope.
  • Works on Ghost Pro or on your own server.
  • No signup, no link, no conditions.
  • Tell us what you need first. If it is bigger than a setup, we will say so.
Ask for a setup

Fair questions.

The things people want cleared up before they sign up for anything.

Does signing up through your link cost me more?
No. You pay Ghost exactly what you would pay going straight to ghost.org, on exactly the same plans. Ghost pays us a share out of its own revenue. Your bill is untouched.
Why would you do this for free?
Because Ghost keeps paying us a share for as long as you stay with them. A site that launches properly and sticks around is worth more to us than the hour it takes to set it up. That is the whole arrangement, and it only works if you are still happy in a year.
I already have a Ghost Pro account. Can I still get it?
Not the free version, because the perk is paid for by a new signup. The same setup is available on its own for $79, and you can ask for it by emailing hello@enova.studio.
Where do I find my theme order number?
At the top of the receipt we emailed you when you bought the theme. If you cannot find that email, send us the address you bought the theme with instead and we will look the order up for you.
How do you know my signup came through your link?
We check the email address you used for Ghost Pro against the signups Ghost credits to us. That is the only reason we ask for it, and it is why the address has to match the one on your Ghost Pro account.
Do I have to hand over my password?
Never. You invite us to your site as a staff user from inside your own account, which is Ghost's normal way of adding people. When the setup is done we remove ourselves, and you can also remove us yourself at any point.
How long does it take?
Usually two business days from the moment we have access to your site. If anything is going to take longer, such as waiting on a domain change, we tell you up front.
Which themes does this cover?
All of them. Enova, Meridian, Signal, and Miyus are all included, at any price.
What if I want to self-host instead?
Then this perk does not apply, because it is funded by Ghost Pro. Setting up your own server is a separate paid service that covers the server, the secure certificate, and email delivery. See self-hosting setup.
Free with a Ghost Pro signup

Get the theme.
We'll do the rest.

Pick a theme, start Ghost Pro through our link, and send us one email. The next time you look at your site, it is ready to publish.

Ghost pays us a commission for signups made through our link, at no extra cost to you. It is entirely optional, and every theme works the same either way.
