Welcome to the next installment of our web series titled, Website Makeovers with Erica, a blog article and five-minute video, which shows Erica helping an OurChurch.Com member makeover their website with our WP-EZ Website Builder.
The purpose of these Makeovers is to provide you with inspiration and ideas to enhance your website.
In Episode Seven of Website Makeovers with Erica, innovation and design collide! Erica guides Ron Morgan through Spradling Baptist Church’s digital transformation.
Who is Spradling Baptist Church?
Spradling Baptist Church, (Southern Baptist) exists to lead people to a life-changing relationship with Jesus. Their mission for their website is to create a platform that attracts as many visitors to their church as they believe God would bring.
The first thing people do when they want to find a church is look to see if they have a website. -Ron Morgan
What were the issues that were keeping their website from achieving its goals?
The website’s layout was uninspiring, lacked comprehensive information and failed to evoke the essence of a welcoming church that would entice visitors.
Some of the issues were:
- The service times were relegated to a secondary position, receiving less emphasis and attention on the website.
- The website showcased images without providing sufficient accompanying information.
- They overlooked the elements that would attract younger families, failing to showcase what could captivate their interest.
Note, this five-minute video has been sped up to keep the video short but if you’d like to see more detailed step-by-step instructions remember we have a library of free video tutorials to help you build the website to meet your church or ministry goals.
