One of the great benefits of subscribing to Muse
or subscribing to Adobe Creative Cloud
is that you get entitlement to publish your Web sites on Adobe Business Catalyst,
our very Web publishing platform.
So when subscribed to Muse as a stand-alone product,
you get 1 Web site that you can use.
If you subscribe to the Creative Cloud,
you get up to 5 Web sites that you can publish on Adobe Business Catalyst.
So how exactly does that work?
So first of all, you would use Muse
to design your Web sites, to plan it, to put all of the elements together,
and then once you're done, there are a couple of things you can do.
You can either go under File
and actually export as HTML or upload to an FTP host;
if you choose not to publish your Web site
with these entitlements,
you have to publish on Business Catalyst.
Or if you choose to publish to Business Catalyst,
you can go back to Muse and simply press the Publish button up here.
So once you press that button,
Muse will actually communicate with Business Catalyst,
and you will be able to enter a site name,
able to change some of the options
to where you want to publish the Web site to.
These are all the Web sites I am currently hosting on Business Catalyst,
and I can also choose to upload only the modified files,
which is very handy because it allows me to do much quicker
upload off the Web site
simply by uploading the files I have changed,
or I can choose to upload all of the files.
And 1 thing I also wanted to show you is that
from within your Creative Cloud Web site
where you can see all of the files that you are sharing
from your mobile applications,
or sharing with customers or co-workers,
you also have a whole list of the Web sites
that are actually hosted on Business Catalyst.
And you can either choose to view the Web site
or manage the Web site from here.
So for example, the Web site I was working on now
is called Alice Ritter design
and from the Adobe Creative Cloud Web site,
I can click on here and actually view that Web site
in a browser and see exactly how it performs.
And I can also share that link
with my customers or my co-workers, of course.
One thing that is very important to know
is that you can upload as many Web sites as you want
as a trial, okay?
So basically, when you're working on a project,
you can upload that Web site to Business Catalyst for free.
This Web site will be there for up to 30 days.
So this is how easy it is.
You create the Web site.
You push the Publish button, and you put it on Business Catalyst.
I'm gonna cancel out of that,
because inside Muse, we also a button here
that allows you to manage the Web site.
When I click that button, what will happen
is that, in your browser, will it actually access
the Admin Console for that Web site.
So we see here that I have
my site name; I can also click on here
to actually view the Web site,
like I did before from my Creative Cloud page.
So let's go back to the console here
and what we see here is that
we have a whole bunch of analytic
of information about the Web site.
What is even more important is
the ability to push the site live,
meaning that you move from
the free,
mock-up Web site that you can show your customers
to the live Web site
that will have its very own Web address
that you can also change and personalize.
So how do you do that?
Let's move on here in the reports, for example.
We see that we have a whole bunch of reports we can generate
from Business Catalyst,
and 1 of those is, of course, the Visitors,
so if you select Visitors here,
we would go to the Visitors page,
and we have an overview of how many people
have actually looked at the Web site,
the geographic location of those visitors,
the new and returning visitors.
If I move on here, Visits and Page Views,
all of the information gets loaded,
which pages have been seen, which have not been seen,
the geographic location, the unique visitors,
the visitor loyalty, as well.
The Traffic Sources,
that's also interesting information to see what
sort of browsers are actually accessing your Web site.
Web Site Content, Custom Reports, and also Admin Reports.
Then, if we go a little bit lower here,
we have the Site Settings,
and this is where it gets really interesting,
because if I click on Site Domains, for example,
this is where I would
link the Muse Web site to my own
Rufus.com Web address.
This is typically something that you do with your
Internet name provider,
and this Internet name provider will
give your information such as the
A Record or a C-Name,
that you want to point to that specific Web site,
or even the Mail Records,
how the mail that will go through the Web site
will actually be generated,
and some advanced DNS records.
But the one that's mostly used, of course, is the A record.
So all you need to do is really go to your name--
name provider and get that information
and simply past it in there and link the 2 sites together.
So that instead of having
what we have right now,
The Alice Ritter Design.Business Catalyst.com Web site,
it'll actually become AliceRitter.com, for example.
This is something that you would do here
in the Adobe Business Catalyst Dashboard.
So coming back to Muse,
you can see now how easy it is
to plan your Web site in the plan mode
and the design mode to design your Web pages,
to preview these Web pages inside of Muse,
and then publish them to Business Catalyst
and manage those pages.
So this entitlement is yours.
You can use it; if you are a Muse subscriber,
you can use 1 Web site.
If you are a Creative Cloud subscriber,
well then you have up to 5 Web sites that you can create that way.
