Can someone on our church staff update the site without knowing how to code?

Yes. We build sites so that basic updates — changing service times, adding an event, posting an announcement — can be done by anyone comfortable using email. If something bigger needs to change, we handle that on our end.

We already have a free website through our denomination. Is it worth replacing?

Denominational templates are limited. They often look identical to every other church using the same system, they load slowly, and you can't control much about how information is organized. If people are finding outdated info or can't tell your church apart from dozens of others, it's worth having something built for you specifically.

Do we need to have all our content ready before you start?

It helps to have your service times, a short description of your church, and any ministry info you want included. But we'll walk you through what's needed and help you figure out what to say. You don't need a finished document before we begin.

What if we want to accept donations or tithes online?

We can add a link to whatever giving platform you use — Tithe.ly, Pushpay, PayPal, or others. If you don't have one set up yet, we can point you in the right direction. The giving link gets placed where people can find it without digging.

How long does the site stay up with the $50 monthly hosting?

As long as you're on the hosting plan, the site stays live. That covers keeping things running, security updates, and minor content changes. There's no long-term contract locking you in for a year.

Web Design for Churches in Chandler

You probably already tried building a church website. Maybe it was a free site through your denomination, or a volunteer put something together on Wix one Saturday. It looked fine for a month, then nobody updated it, and now visitors are finding service times from two years ago.

The Real Problem with Most Church Websites

A family moves to Chandler. Maybe they're settling near the school district, maybe they bought land off 31. They start looking for a church home, and the first thing they do is search on their phone.

They find your site. But the service times listed are wrong — you changed to a single Sunday morning service last spring and never updated the page. The address is there but there's no map link. The "About" section is three paragraphs of doctrinal language that doesn't tell them what walking through your doors on Sunday actually feels like. They tap the back arrow and try the next church down the list.

This isn't about having a flashy website. It's about having one that answers basic questions quickly and accurately. When the information is wrong or hard to find, people move on. They don't call to ask. They just go somewhere else.

What a Church Website Actually Needs to Do

1. **Show service times and location immediately.** Not buried in a menu. Not on a separate page. The moment someone lands on your site, they should see when you meet and where you are — with a tap-to-navigate map link that works on a phone.

2. **Present your church honestly.** Who are you? What do you believe? What ministries do you run? What does your community look like? This doesn't need to be long. It needs to be current and written in plain language. A short description of your children's ministry matters more than a five-paragraph statement of faith pulled from a template.

3. **Give people a way to connect before they visit.** A prayer request form. A simple volunteer sign-up. A contact form that actually goes to someone who checks their email. These small entry points make it easier for someone to take a step toward your church before they ever walk through the door.

4. **Keep events and announcements up to date.** An event calendar that still shows your 2024 Vacation Bible School is worse than having no calendar at all. The site needs to be easy enough for someone on your staff — or a reliable volunteer — to update without calling a developer.

What This Costs and How It Works

A simple site with your service times, location, beliefs, and a contact form starts at $300 and takes a few days. If you need an event calendar, ministry pages, volunteer forms, and prayer request submissions, a full website starts at $1,500 and takes about a week. Hosting runs $50 a month and that includes keeping things updated and running.

We're in Tyler — about twenty minutes up the road. You'll work directly with the person building your site, not a support queue. If your Wednesday night schedule changes or you need to add a page for a new small group, that gets handled quickly.

Churches in smaller towns like Chandler don't need a complicated web presence. But they do need an accurate one. The site should load fast, work on every phone, and answer the questions people actually have when they're deciding where to visit on Sunday.
