3 things your church website should have

1. Church Address
One of the first things a visitor to a church's homepage wants to know is where the church is located. Don’t assume people know where you! Give as much information as possible and with today’s technology being so readily available to people a post code for sat nav is crucial.
2. Phone number and general email address
No matter how concise and easily accessible the information on the homepage, people are always going to have general questions about the church. Visitors are going to look for a way to contact the church with these questions. Putting the church phone number and a general email address will give visitors the ability to ask any general questions they might have. 
To avoid spam emails there are HTML coded forms you can use to prevent junk mail.
3. Service Times/Descriptions
One of the main pieces of information an internet user wants to know about the church is what time the services are held. When putting details of services on your site also make sure to add additional information such as children’s facilities and creche. You may even describe the style of service and what length of time it will take.
