Split Web site?

Gary,

If you’re asking what I think you’re asking, we do exactly that.  Our main website is hosted in one location and our ticketing site is hosted by Tessitura (TNEW).  I also have a few resident companies who do the same thing, only they use POP ExpressTix for their ticketing sites and they are hosted by us (ATTPAC) on our web server.

We’ve always been set up this way and haven’t really had any issues other than having to rely on POP and wait on them to fix issues that might happen with the ticketing sites for my resident companies.  There haven’t been very many issues over the 4 years we’ve been operating though as long an there aren’t any changes requested.  The TNEW team is very quick to resolve any issues that I have on my ticketing site.

The one con that I have is that since I don’t have a web developer, I have to rely on outside sources to write code for me for any additional functionality I need on my ticketing websites.  With Tessitura (TNEW), it’s not an issue….they are really quick to help me.  For my resident companies, it’s different.  They have to go through the process of a SOW and long process of designing what they want.  It usually takes several months to get anything major and the cost is prohibitive for them usually, that they can’t make any changes and are limited with the functionality.  If we had a web developer on staff, I think the situation would be much different.

Hi.

Was wondering if anyone out there currently hosts the non-ticketing, i.e. static, portions of their Web site with one host and the Tessitura ticketing pages of their site with another host...and if that's even possible or recommended?  If so, I'd be interested to hear the pros and cons of doing so or any other comments.

Thanks!
Gary
