We take a look at creating a website that serves as an employee for your church doing a defined job 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Steven Swank, Digital Media Manager of LifeMission Church, joins us as we talk through a website build for LifeMission Church using the Salient WordPress theme. We cover what a good method is for building a site plus the decision process of choosing the right platform.

Show Notes:
A website is important toward establishing a brand because:
• It acts as the front door to your church
• It serves your audiences externally and internally
We take a look at the website process for building the LifeMission.Church site.
How to choose a platform which works for you:
• Why we chose Salient for the LifeMission.Church site
• Why you need a content management system
• How to make the site mobile-responsive
• How we achieved the features we needed for the LifeMission.Church site
Plan the user experience carefully so it is simple to use and people are served with what they need.
• Site Map – used to determine what pages are needed and how they relate to each other
• Wireframes – allows us to place content on each page and make adjustments quickly
• Design mockups – show design elements such as color, fonts and images
• Develop/code the site – when the design is approved, development can start
• Test
• Launch
• Adjust
3 main audiences
• Non-believer
• Church shopper
• Church member
