5 Tips For A Great Church Website
Key components to a great church website:
1. Less is more – don’t bombard me with every ministry on the homepage, everyone doesn’t need to know about your underwater basket-weaving class!
2. Don’t make me scroll – long web pages are lame. I don’t want to scroll forever into a bottomless web pit, remember i can click… my mouse has buttons!
3. KISS – keep it simple stupid! Ok, so I stole that one from my Sgt. in the military, but it works. If you can’t make it easy than dont do it. Complicated parts of websites just make the user frustrated, so if it can’t be simple than leave it out!
4. Use a simple CMS (content management system). There are great tools out there like wordpress and joomla that are free! This means you can update the info regularly with out a pro doing it for you. If it is not easy for you to use then you wont want to bother maintaining it.
5. Relevant information – KEEP YOUR WEBSITE UP TO DATE!!! Don’t tell me about the Christmas party that is coming up when it already happened 6 months ago!
