What to avoid. Where you’re headed. What are the basics.
Mistake 1: Focus on You instead of Them
Don’t be selfish and talk about “I, we, us…”. Instead, use the word YOU!
Mistake 2: Focus on Details that Don’t Matter…yet.
Don’t major on details and distinctives. Those happen in relationship. Major on the blessing and benefit.
Mistake 3: Forget the REAL reader—freshmen & parents.
Your website is “first date” material aimed at serving scared parents and incoming freshmen. They’ll likely visit your site for 30–90 seconds 1 or 2xs.
Part 1: Setup your site.
Get everything set up.
Part 2: Build your site.
Use the templates to build your actual ministry pages.
Part 3: Organize and launch your site.
Add header & footer, test your forms, connect your domain and go live!
