Church websites built for the person visiting for the first time.
Almost everyone landing on your site is asking the same quiet questions: when do you meet, what happens when I get there, and what should I wear. Answer those above the fold.

A church website has one primary user and it isn't your members. It's the person who's never been. They are often nervous, they're deciding whether to walk in on Sunday, and they want practical reassurance more than they want your mission statement.
Everything else (sermons, giving, groups, events), serves the people already there, and can sit comfortably below.
Building the site and ranking it are two different jobs. The second one is set out on SEO for churches.
What's costing you
enquiries right now.
Service times hard to find
The most-searched fact about any church, routinely buried in a paragraph or an image.
Nothing for the first-time visitor
No page explaining parking, what to wear, how long the service runs, or what happens with kids.
Sermons locked in a feed
Audio and video that isn't indexed, searchable or shareable, a large archive doing no work.
Giving with too much friction
Online giving that takes six steps or doesn't work properly on a phone.
Built for how churches
actually win work.
Service times immediately visible
Times, address and a map in the header, with Church schema so they can show in search results.
A real “plan your visit” page
Parking, entrances, what to wear, service length, children's ministry, and what actually happens, the anxiety-reducing detail that gets people through the door.
Searchable sermon archive
Audio and video with titles, series, speakers, scripture references and transcripts, so the archive becomes findable content.
Simple online giving
One-tap giving with recurring options, integrated with Tithe.ly, Pushpay, Planning Center or Subsplash.
Events and groups
A calendar and small-group directory with straightforward signup.
Multi-campus ready
Separate campus pages with their own times, staff and directions where you need them.

Why we'd build this on WordPress
Churches run on volunteers and tight budgets. WordPress is free, easy for a volunteer to learn, and connects to Planning Center, Tithe.ly and the rest of the church software ecosystem.
- Free, and simple enough for a volunteer to learn
- Connects to Planning Center, Tithe.ly and Subsplash
- Sermon archive stays searchable as it grows
From first call to launch.
- 01
First-visit design
We start by designing for the person who has never been, because they're the hardest to reach and everything else follows from getting that right.
- 02
Sermon archive structure
We set up series, speakers, scripture and transcripts so your back catalogue starts working as content rather than sitting in a feed.
- 03
Giving flow
Online giving connected and reduced to as few taps as the platform allows, with recurring offered clearly.
- 04
Build and integrations
Site build with Planning Center or your church management system connected for events, groups and giving.
- 05
Launch and volunteer training
Launch, then train volunteers with restricted roles so they can post sermons and events without being able to break anything.
What moves the price on
a church website.
We quote fixed prices per project rather than by the hour, so scope is what determines cost. These are the four things that move it most.
Number of campuses
Each campus needs its own times, staff, directions and often its own giving designation. Multi-site churches are a larger build.
Sermon archive size
Importing and structuring years of existing sermons takes time. Starting fresh and importing gradually is a common way to reduce cost.
Church management integration
Linking out to Planning Center is simple. Surfacing live event and group data on the site is more involved.
Transcripts
Transcribing sermons is what makes the archive rank. It's an ongoing cost, but it's usually the cheapest traffic a church can buy.
Every project is quoted individually. Tell us what you need and we'll come back within one business day with scope, timeline and a fixed price.

Service times, parking, what to wear, what happens with their kids. Answer those plainly and you've done most of the job.

Questions churches
ask us most.
Can volunteers update the site?+
Yes. That's usually a requirement rather than a nice-to-have. We set up limited roles so a volunteer can post sermons and events without being able to change settings or break anything, and we run a short training session at handover.
Does it connect to Planning Center?+
Yes. Events, groups and giving can sync with Planning Center, and we also integrate Tithe.ly, Pushpay and Subsplash.
How do we publish sermons?+
Upload or link the audio or video, add title, series, speaker and scripture, and publish. If you add transcripts, sermons start ranking for the topics they cover, which brings in people searching for help with something specific.
Do you offer church pricing?+
Yes, churches and registered nonprofits get discounted rates. Mention it on the quote form.
How long does a church website take?+
Typically 3 to 5 weeks. Multi-campus sites with separate service times and staff run a little longer.
Can we take giving on the site?+
Yes, through a dedicated giving platform rather than a raw payment gateway, that gets you recurring giving, proper donor records and year-end statements without extra admin.
