Church Social Media Strategy: Complete Guide
Most churches are on social media. Few churches are using social media well.

Church Website Maintenance: Monthly Checklist
Launching a church website is a project. Maintaining a church website is a habit. Most churches invest significant energy in the launch and then let the site drift — outdated staff photos, past events still listed, broken links, and a homepage that looks exactly the same as it did 18 months ago. This is how…

Church Website Content Strategy: What to Post & When
Most church websites go stale within months of launching. The homepage still shows last year’s Easter service. The events page lists a potluck from three months ago.

Church Website Member Portal: Do You Need One?
Church member portals sound great in theory — a private, logged-in area where members can update their contact information, sign up for events, view giving statements, access private documents, and manage their involvement.

Church Website Accessibility: ADA Compliance Guide
Church websites serve everyone — including people who navigate the web with screen readers, keyboards, voice commands, or magnification tools. Website accessibility isn’t just a technical requirement or legal checkbox. For a church, it’s a reflection of your values. If your building has a wheelchair ramp but your website can’t be used by someone who…

Church Website Security: Protecting Your Ministry Online
Church websites handle sensitive information — donor credit card details, member contact data, prayer requests, and sometimes even children’s check-in records. Yet most churches give almost no thought to website security. The attitude is often “Why would anyone hack a church?” — and the answer is: because hackers don’t care that you’re a church. Automated…
