Most likely, your church really wants to reach new people.
However, I’ve talked with so many new church visitors who have said “if I knew what this church was like, I would have walked through the doors a lot sooner. But, the church website didn’t tell me what to expect.”
That is a tragedy.
But, we get it. It can be quite challenging to set proper expectations for new visitors. What do you communicate? What do you leave off? How much is too much? What are you forgetting to mention?
Intentional or not, every church has a process that a new visitor is taken through. Some are just better than others. It is the starting point of their journey in becoming a regular attender and future member of your church.
Did you know that, on average, visitors to your site view only 2.6 pages and then leave?
If you aren’t communicating what to expect for new visitors within 2 clicks, you are missing the mark and losing the majority of your new website traffic.

We’ve learned what people are looking for in our years of working with churches and helping them build their website content strategy. Using our expertise, we’ve created a new Ministry Focused Layout specifically to inform and welcome new visitors looking for more information about your church.
