# Deploy a blog in one click

Templates in this category deploy publishing platforms in one click. Ghost and WordPress are the most deployed, each with a MySQL database and persistent storage preconfigured. Waline adds a lightweight commenting system and NodeBB covers forums.

Every blog runs on always-on servers with usage based pricing and a free trial, and you can attach a custom domain.

## Common questions about Blog templates

### How do I self-host Ghost?

Deploy a Ghost template and Railway creates Ghost with MySQL and a persistent volume in your own project. You get a working blog in a few minutes with full access to themes and settings.

### Can I run WordPress on Railway?

Yes. The WordPress templates ship with MySQL preconfigured, and one click deploys the whole stack. Variants with Nginx, PHP-FPM, and Redis exist for production grade setups.

### Do blog templates keep my content across restarts?

Yes. Content lives in the template's database and uploaded files sit on persistent volumes, so redeploys and restarts do not lose data.

### Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Every deployed blog gets a generated Railway domain, and you can attach a custom domain with automatic HTTPS.
