I hear it all the time, "But our Church already has a FaceBook page..."

If you'd like to grow your congregation, reach a broader audience and provide important information about your Church in an easy to find, organized way - then a customized website that reflects who you are is a must in today's digital world.

Your website provides a way for someone new to the area or Christianity, to find out relevant information about your church. Important information such as your location and Service times can be displayed in a way that's quick and easy for interested people to find.

Having your own website is like owning your own Church Building. Having a FaceBook page is like preaching in Town Square. What you do in your own building is up to you. Town Square has limitations and restrictions.

1. FINDABILITY: If someone is looking for a new Church to visit, chances are they're going to use Google. If you don't have a website, the interested person will most likely move on to the next Church that does.

2. ACCESSIBILITY: A website is accessible to everyone, not just FaceBook users. Trends point towards younger people moving away from FaceBook.

3. FREEDOM: A website isn't bound by FaceBook's ever changing rules and restrictions. You can portray your Church through your website however you'd like. You aren’t at the mercy of new social media limitations and restrictions.

4. HUB: Your website increases SEO (search engine optimization) just by existing, but also by linking all your other social media sites and resources to one place - creating a virtual ecosystem.

5. ORGANIZATION: A website can provide a way to provide relevant information in an easy to find, organized way.
