+Vercel (previously zeit) is similar to Netlify, making deployment of sites easy.
+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.
+
+- 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.
+
+
+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.
+
+```
+ {
+ "build": {
+ "env": {
+ "ZOLA_VERSION": "0.12.0"
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+And your site should now be up and running.
