Unfortunately even a managed host like Ghost doesn't have much ability to help you with this particular problem; your particular site is treated as its own separate thing in malicious-site databases. (Since, after all, there's nothing stopping a bad guy from hosting a phishing site on a ghost.io subdomain.)
