Question
How do I host a conventional page using nginx alongside the Ghost 0.5.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 Droplet

I’ve used the Ghost 0.5.2 on 14.04 Droplet to get a Ghost blog running, and everything is working well. I had previously set up on a different Droplet a LAMP stack and had successfully installed things like TT-RSS.
I’m looking to now do the same on the Ghost 0.5.2 on 14.04 Droplet - and I believe it has something to do with nginx server blocks? But even if I try to set up a test in sites-available and navigate to a test IP/test/index.html the Ghost installation still catches it and displays the Ghost 404.
Pretty sure I’m missing something basic - or am misunderstanding the nginx server block system. I found some guides in the /etc/nginx/sites-available/default file and have been reading through them.
Is this at least the correct direction?
