Services
We know that many churches get their trial sites and are up, up and away. We also know that some want help because:
- They don’t have time to do it themselves
- They want a professional design
- They want professional content
- They have a lot of data or content to transfer
- They want to be found easily
- They’d rather leave it with the experts
With years of experience making ChurchInsight web sites we offer the following specialist services. Please contact us with any inquiries and for pricing.
Graphic Design
Our graphic designers create logos, themes and layouts for ChurchInsight customers. You may want a little help with the images or a whole new theme created – either way, they work quickly and efficiently to produce designs that are guaranteed to work with the system. They say:
 It’s one thing to knock out a smart flyer but another thing to design a whole web site that looks great and feels consistent. Designing in-house can be a false economy. A small amount of professional design time could save weeks and weeks of trial and error – not to mention avoiding that awkwardness when you don’t like the end result. 
Services include: branding (logo), themes, layouts, standardization, multimedia presentation.
Content Strategy
You’ve got the features, you know how you want it to look, but what do you want it to say? Don’t ruin a perfectly good web site with unclear communication, spelling mistakes and bloated articles. Our content strategists are skilled in getting your message across to your web audience throughout your site. They say:
Most churches know exactly what their message is, but they don’t know how to say it on the web. Good web content is powerful, short, scannable, and easy to navigate. Too many churches lose their audience forever in the first few seconds because they write like they preach or print.
Services include: copywriting, proofreading, branding (name), tone of voice, micro-content, information architecture
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Inbound Marketing
Most of your web site visitors will come from a search engine. Our SEO service specializes in maximizing organic SEO – that is developing habits in the way you publish content on your site to make sure that it is easy for search engines to find. In the words of our SEO team:
It doesn’t matter how good your billboard is if it’s miles from the main road. Implementing just a few, simple techniques as you build your site can make the difference between appearing on the front page of Google, or never being found at all.
Services include: web address and keyword selection, optimized content, tagging, link building
Data Management
If you need to populate your new web site with existing data and content, it might be a long process. Why not speed it up and get your data across quickly, securely, and cleanly? Our data managers are experts at handling bulk media transferals, de-duplicating and cleaning records and migrating all types of content and data. They say:
Churches appreciate a clean start with their new web sites. Not only can we save a lot of time in manual input, but we can clean up the data as it comes through, so that your content is crisp, your contacts up to date, and your media working from the beginning.
Services include: data migration, content migration, data cleaning, media transferal
Project Management
Having built web sites for hundreds of churches we know what it takes to get the job done. Sometimes it is worth the peace of mind to have experts take care of the whole business for you. A project manager assigned to deliver your new web site will liaise with your church and our different service teams as needed. From our project managers:
The same pitfalls come up with site creation time after time; surprise at design elements, unsustainable feature commitments, unscalable architecture, content-delay syndrome, multiple agendas … When we manage the project we avoid all these problems from the start. We can get the best out of all our teams to produce what a church wants quickly.
Service includes: dedicated project manager, graphic design, content strategy, SEO, data management
Web Site Management
ChurchInsight is designed to be easy to update and run. Some churches however still prefer the management of their site to be taken care of by a professional company. With our web site management service we can take care of the day to day running of your site so that it never impinges on the real mission of your church. Our managers say:
The main reason that people like our service is that it saves them time. But they soon begin to appreciate the benefit for their site as well: no content bloating, nothing out of date, no glaring errors or mess behind the scenes. We keep the engine as smooth as it was designed to run.
Services include: content upload and presentation, feature management, web office moderation, streamlining. |
