Vercel (previously Zeit) is similar to Netlify, making the deployment of your site easy as pie.
The sites are hosted by Vercel and automatically deployed whenever we push a commit to our
selected production branch (e.g, master).
If you don't have an account with Vercel, you can sign up [here](https://vercel.com/signup).
## Automatic deploys
Once you sign up you can import your site from a Git provider (Github, GitLab or Bitbucket).
After the import, you can set the settings for your project.
When you import your repository, Vercel will try to find out what frmaework your site is using.
- Choose Framework Preset as **Other**
- Build command as `zola build` and make sure toggle on Override switch.
- By default Vercel chooses output directory as `public`, if you use a different directory then specify output directory.
- To add your own domain, go to domain setting in left and add it there.
If it doesn't default to Zola:
- Set Framework Preset as **Zola**.
By default, Vercel chooses output directory as `public`. If you use a different directory, then
specify output directory under the "Build and Output Settings" dropdown.
You can learn more about how to setup a custom domain and how to get the most out of Vercel
[via their documentation.](https://vercel.com/docs)
All we have to is include a `vercel.json` in our project's root directory by
specifying the `ZOLA_VERSION` we want to use to deploy the site.
```json
{
"build": {
"env": {
"ZOLA_VERSION": "0.13.0"
}
}
}
```
And your site should now be up and running.
After you click the blue "Deploy" button, it's off to the races!
