making landing page live on github.io #5

Right now the website can only be run locally using the Jekyll server system. It would be wonderful if someone could help out and set it up that it goes live as a github.io page. In steps, this is what we would like:

1 - find a nice, easy to remember domain name. 2 - Make the page live and make it in a way that can be redirected by the domain setup in step 1

2 - Make the page live

Rename FOSH_home depository to: FOSH-following-demand.github.io
Rename index.md to: README.md or index.html
Check in Settings ==> GitHub Pages that it goes live

1 - find a nice, easy to remember domain name.

After you buy/register domain name you set registrar to go to your github
Add a CNAME file to the root of the depo with your domain name

Hi @gooshie ! Thanks for the information about making the page live :) I wonder if you would like to implement those changes and submit them as a pull request?
