Absolutely. There are no catches. No banner ads. No product placement. No "free for some period of time and then our regular rates apply". Just a 100% free, professional-looking, informative web site that's easy to use and set up. So who benefits? The Kingdom of God and the people who get saved because your web site brought them to your church.
No. At Freechurchonline.net, unlike some other church web site companies who play word games to make things appear free, ours is actually free.
Never. See the first question above.
No. Anyone can learn our product in minutes. We offer comprehensive help pages and video help to make it even easier. For the most part, you simply fill in a form with information and we turn it into a beautiful web page instantly.
Yes, unlike many other Contenet Management Systems, churchonline.net actually provides two web sites in one. When you save changes, they are saved to a preview site. Once you have verified that you are happy with your changes, you then publish those changes to your live web site. If you don't like the changes you have made, you can simply revert your preview site to match your live web site.
There are a number of ways.
- The first is that people use the internet over 75% of the time to research a church before they visit. If you are not visible, you will have fewer visitors. Visitors often give their offering at your church. Many visitors are not just passing through but looking for a new home. Besides helping bring people into the family of God, new members are usually regular givers.
- We also have a Referral Bonus Program. Most churches can benefit from the features that are included in the full-featured product. When you refer a church to churchonline.net and they sign up, you will receive a check in the amount of three months worth of their package price, after they've been with us for six months.
- Another great way to generate income is with our Affiliates program. This is a links page that allows you to shop online and receive a percentage paid back to your church. This page is a popup from your main page so you are not displaying advertising on your home page. This can generate hundreds of dollars every month.
We host your web site at one of the country's leading hosting centers on dedicated high-end hardware. As more churches sign up, we add additional servers so your web site stays extremely responsive. We do hourly backups of your database so in case of a catastrophe, your content will be safe.
Yes, for a one-time $25 set-up fee. The 100% free product uses a URL such as yourchurch.churchonline.net.
You can purchase your own domain through the registrar of your choice; they usually cost between $10 and $15 a year, and usually come with at least one free email address. Often you can purchase more email addresses for just a couple dollars a year. We can also purchase and manage your domain for you for an additional $25 a year, which includes the price of the domain itself. However, you would still own the domain and have the ability to move it anywhere you like.
Yes, for $25 per image. You can create more than one and have them rotate if you want.
Absolutely. One of the best things about your new free web site is that as you grow or have time to add more features, you can simply purchase a package from churchonline.net and your existing web site remains intact with the new features ready to be added. All of the admin tools are exactly the same.
We understand that you may decide to go a different route for your web site. We make it simple to cancel. Simply email us and we'll take care of it right away.
