Website Hosting with Business Catalyst

hello,
I recently discovered the existence of Business Catalyst and I read that this solution was passing by and dedicated hosting provided by Adobe (MyDomainName / businesscatalyst.com). I wanted to know if it is possible to work with this solution on specific servers (shared or dedicated)?
In fact, is it possible to design and manage BC sites hosted on their own space hérgement (mydomainname.com)?
Thanking you in advance for your answers,
Best Regards
Anthony

Hi Liam,
Thank you very much for your answer.
I understand you can not host a website made with BC on a server other than Adobe. I think it is a weakness because customers like to know exactly where their site is located. In addition, Adobe is not really recognized in France as host ... not to mention SEO (French website + hoster French = best SEO). It's a pity because I think BC really promising ... However, I will like you've shown me look at the different documentation.
Best Regards,

If I host with Business Catalyst, will search engines fine me any "better" or Worse than go daddy?

If I host with Business Catalyst, will search engines fine me any "better" or Worse than go daddy?
I am new to Muse and love it! Not sure if the hosting site matters one way or the other.

Liam has some great points. Some other things to consider is that google (just talking one search engine at the moment) more than likely know what a BC site looks like and is made of and would know the best ways to index it assuming you use some of the features of BC and not just straight up HTML.
Godaddy is straight up HTML so as far as indexing goes I think BC has an advantage as it is a known system much like wordpress.
As far as IP blocks, bad neighbours, etc only google will know that information and it's not easy to say which is better.
For example if someone on BC spam's there website everywhere or engages in dodgy SEO practises, spambots etc. Their site is going to be pushed down, if you happen to be on the same IP or close to that site you will be in a "bad neighbourhood" and it may affect your site in the short term. This is the case for ANY hosting solution, so take it all with a gain of salt.

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites?

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites? This is so I can keep my free ones for personal projects but also so they can pay for their own hosting. I am happy to set it all up for them but not sure what to do.

Hi
You can use their BC login details and use them , which on publish the site will be under their account.
Please change the BC login from Edit > Preferences > Publish > Switch Accounts , for Mac it would Adobe Muse > Preferences

I have an InDesign CC subscription, does that give me free website hosting through Business Catalyst, or do I need to upgrade?

Leopard (10.5) is not available as a download or as a disk purchase from Apple. You may find copies on e-bay for sale.
If your iMac can accept Snow Leopard (10.6), a disk can be purchased from the Apple online store.
Ciao.

There are a few sites that sale BC templates pre-built for you if that is what you are looking for.
Here are two of them:
Adobe Business Catalyst Templates
TribeVita.com
I believe there are a few other places that sale them and searching Google may turn them up.
Hope this helps.

Does UK hosting with Business Catalyst include VAT? Can it be paid for per year?

I have been using Adobe Muse for about a year - LOVE IT! I'm starting to get professional business's as clients who obviously want quotes for their websites and hosting. I would like to stick with Business Catalyst for hosting...their online help support (chat) is just fantastic.
Anyhoo, there is no effective price structure for this. It is all in US Dollas which is taking me a bloomin decade to convert. And, do the prices include VAT? It doesn't say anywhere. Can the plans be paid for annualy? It seems very unhelpful on the Adobe website.
Also, please tell me if I am misunderstanding...Adobe can bill the clients for the hosting. Which is great. But obviously I am a business and put my percentage on top. So how would that work?
Its a long ol' curve to learning something 100%..any help or advice here would be much appeciated. Thanks.

Hi,
BC only bills in US or AU dollars at this stage. You might want to reference the partner help guides under "Account & Billing" to see how billing your clients and custom pricing works within BC. - http://www.businesscatalyst.com/support/partner-help
There's two billing frequency options (monthly or annually). Furthermore if needing more assistance with account related questions I would recommend reaching out to the account team to help answer all your remaining questions to be 100% certain before moving forward.

Hosting with Business Catalyst for cli

I currently use Adobe Muse to build websites, I love it it allows me to build and create the type of sites my clients desire. So with that in mind I need the following advice:
1) One of my clients wants to host with a separate company NOT BC. How easy will it be for the client to use in-browser editing, or can she even edit at all? I know it's a simple process with BC as you can use the admin Dashboard, but I need to let my client know as soon as possible her position with self editing once published.
2) another client would be happy to BC but I need to know how to set up an account with BC for them. What the cost of this would be? I am not looking to mark-up the cost. I know I could use one of my five sites and invoice them monthly for the cost (I am a CC member) but I would like to keep those for other projects.

Your client will need to use some kind of HTML editor. Many hosting companies offer some kind of basic editor, but not the same in-browser WYSIWYG-style editor as your MUSE site. Some of your BC server-side functions may not work as they may be unique to BC, such as forms (though you can edit or redo these to work with other services).
A word of caution. I moved a client site from one hosted solution to another (as the client thought it would be cheaper), and the exercise turned into a costly mission adapting the site to work with a completely new editor and server-side functions.
Check http://www.businesscatalyst.com/pricing/yearly for pricing of BC hosting.

Hosting Client Sites with Business Catalyst?

Do I have to HOST potential client sites with Business Cataylst in order for the forms widget to work? I am very excited about this tool but this is one major issue that I need clarity on that plan old experience and practice will not answer. I have already used form entry sites that give you the code, but it just isnt MUSE! I get redirected to their sites and makes the overall site look less authentic... Can someone provide a little insight please!!! I'd call in to 1800 MUSE HELP if I could. Thanks!

Yes, the sites need to be hosted with Business Catalyst in order for the forms widget to work out of the box.
Users have also reported success adding contact forms to their site using Adobe FormsCentral, Jotform, or Wufoo and inserting them via Object > Insert HTML.
Read more about Muse's Contact form widgets here - http://www.adobekb.com/adding_contact_forms.html
"If you want to create and style forms with Muse and then upload your site to a different web hosting service, the forms will display as you designed them, but they will not function. If you have experience working with code, you can use Muse to export your site and then open the files in an HTML editor. Update the source code of the form to make it compatible with the form processing technology used by your hosting provider before you upload the files to their server."
Thanks,
Vinayak

When you host a website with business catalyst do you get a domain name with it or do you have to buy one separately?

Hi there,
You need to get a domain yourself.

How do I link my Creative Cloud account with Business Catalyst Web Hosting service?

Hello,
I'm having difficulty understanding how to access the Business Catalyst service. I have attempted to log in directly to businesscatalyst.com/admin but continue to receive an error login message stating that my username and password are not recognized. I was not able to create a new business catalyst website via Dreamweaver either, despite having successfully logged into my Adobe Cloud account.
The only way I was able to set-up a website for use with Business Catalyst was by logging in via http://www.adobe.com/products/business-catalyst.html, and pressing the "try now" button, which allowed me to create a demo site. This also allowed me to log into BC, but when I attempted to upgrade the site from a trial to the webbasic service, I am asked for a payment method.
I understand that the creative cloud service includes basic web hosting for up to 5 sites and should work seamlessly with DW or Muse, or using the InContext editing options provided via browser, but I am unable to truly access any of this content. Am I doing something wrong here?
Thank you

Please approach our support and supply them with your Adobe ID and the site URL you want to take live and they will do this for you in couple of minutes.
Cheers,

Unable to test my muse website with business catalyst .

Hello,
I am currently in trial of creatives-corner. I have developed an website with muse and trying to test it with business catalyst. But whenever i try to publish it is shows the following error.
Error:
Error uploading file slideshow1.png. There was no response from the server. Check your network connection, and try again. If this problem persists, try again later.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi
This can be due few reasons :
- If you have placed the asset in remote/network/external source then this can be the cause, try to save the asset on local drive and then try.
- It can be a connection issue from your end, check the settings and re-publish.
- I see BC is going on with some updates/maintenance on their servers , so this may be related to that.

Please try again to publish.

Problem with Business Catalyst Webmail

Hello,
I built a website for a client, using Adobe Muse, that is hosted by Business Catalyst. On the website's Contact Us page I placed an Adobe Muse 'Simple Contact ' widget/form with three (3) fields: Name, Email, and Message. The form worked as intended until the end of December 2014. Since then, the information in the 'Email' field is being changed.
The site has four different email accounts through Business Catalyst. For the sake of discussion lets call them:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
The Messages from the Muse Simple Contact form are sent to [email protected]. When the emails are viewed in Business Catalyst's 'Webmail' the email address that was entered into the Simple Contact forms's 'Email' field doesn't show up in the 'From' field as it always has. Instead the 'From' field shows that the email was sent from [email protected] regardless of what was entered, by the sender, in the 'Email' field of the Simple Contact form. It make no difference what email provider's address is entered in the field - @AOL, @Yahoo, @Roadrunner, @Hotmail, @Gmail, etc. - they are all changed to [email protected]
Likewise, when the client tries to reply to the customer's inquiry the 'To' field is populated with Mail-4@website not the email address the sender entered into the 'Email' field on the Muse Simple Contact form.
If I changed the Muse Simple Contact form so that the mail is directed to either [email protected] or [email protected] the problem exists on those accounts as well.
I'm not sure where the problem lies, so I am making inquiries both here and in the Adobe Muse forum - even though I'm almost certain the problem is with BC's 'Webmail' client.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how to fix it?
This is making it overly difficult for the client to respond to their customer's needs. I'm really up against a wall on this and have an angry client that is ready to walkaway from Muse and Business Catalyst

Can i just check with you that this is correct?
Thanks

Taking a Muse site live with Business Catalyst

I have a complete Student and Teacher creative cloud subscription through my school (I am a student). And I have designed a website in Muse. I would like to take it live via Business Catalyst, but when I click "Launch Site," I get a window that says, "To launch this site you should upgrade to a paid Adobe Creative Cloud Membership which includes hosting for 5 sites with Adobe Business Catalyst." Then it directs me to the purchase page. But I already have a cloud membership. What's happening? Can anyone help me out?

Hi,
Creative cloud individual subscription allow you to host 5 free sites with Business catalyst. As you are using Student edition, your product does not qualify for free sites. To push your site live, you must pay for it.
Do let me know if you have any question.
