Site Visibility Options
Muse offers various visibility settings to control who can access your site. Here’s a detailed guide to each option:
Public Site
Accessible to everyone on the internet
- Accessible to everyone on the internet, ensuring maximum reach and visibility.
- Perfect for blogs, portfolios, businesses, and any content intended for a broad audience.
- Public pages are visible to and indexed by search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing, helping to increase your online presence and discoverability.
Unlisted Site
Only visible to people who have the link
- Your unlisted sites are visible only to people who have the link, providing a level of privacy without requiring passwords.
- Perfect for event invitations, personal projects, or selective sharing with a specific audience.
- Unlisted sites are not indexed by search engines, ensuring your content remains private and accessible only to those you choose to share the link with.
Private Site
Visible only to you and users you explicitly give access to
- Your private sites are visible only to you and collaborators you explicitly share them with. Collaborators can be designated as editors or viewers, based on your preference.
- This allows you to work with others while maintaining control over access and editing rights.
- Suitable for internal projects, team collaborations, or personal journals.
- Private sites are not visible to or indexed by search engines, ensuring that your content remains confidential and accessible only to selected individuals.
Paid Site
Access limited to users who have purchased access
- Paid site access allows you to limit content to users who have purchased access. This is ideal for monetizing online courses, premium articles, or membership-based services.
- Paid access enables you to generate revenue from your content, ensuring that only paying users can view it.
- Paid pages are public and visible to search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing. This means they can be indexed and appear in search results, helping to attract potential customers.
