Rizen for churches and ministries

A church website your volunteers can actually keep current.

We build it, write and move your content, and look after it afterwards. The church owns the site and the domain from the first day, and the price is the same for every congregation whatever your size.

1The honest part

A website will not grow your church.

What it will do is stop you losing the people who already went looking for you and could not find a service time, an address, or a reason to trust the place. That is a smaller promise than you will hear anywhere else, and it is the one we can keep. Everything we build aims at that single job.

2What you get

Built for the person who inherits the login.

Usually a volunteer with twenty minutes a month, not a web person. Everything below is shaped around that one fact.

The pastor or the board signs. A volunteer maintains it, usually with a job, a family and about forty minutes on a Tuesday evening. We build for that person.

Adding a sermon is a title, a date and a file. Events and staff pages work the same way. If you ever find yourself emailing us to change a single word, we built it wrong and we will fix it.

3How it works

Three steps, about three weeks.

Most of the waiting is content rather than building, and we tell you exactly what we need on the first call so nothing stalls.

1

A short call

Twenty minutes. You tell us what is wrong with the site you have. We tell you what we would do and whether you actually need us. No slides.

2

We build it

We write and move your content, set up sermons and events, and send a link while it is still easy to change. Two rounds of notes are included.

3

We hand it over

Live on hosting in the church’s name. You get every login, a short written guide, and a walkthrough with whoever keeps it updated.

4Pricing

The same for every church. No demo required.

If the number does not work for your congregation, say so and we will talk about scope or timing. What we will not do is quietly charge the church down the road more to make up the difference.

6Questions

The ones churches actually ask.

Answered here rather than saved up for a call, because you should be able to rule us out without talking to anyone.

There are builders at $19 a month. Why are you more?

Because they are different things. Nineteen dollars buys a template you fill in yourself and maintain yourself. We build the site, write and move the content, and look after it afterwards.

If nobody at your church has ten hours to build a website and two hours a month to keep it current, the cheap option is the expensive one. It just bills you in volunteer time. If somebody does have those hours, use the cheap one, and we will tell you so.

What happens if you stop doing this?

You keep everything. The site runs on hosting in the church’s name with the domain registered to you, and you already have the logins and a written record of how it is put together.

That is true from day one, not something offered later if somebody gets unhappy.

We are a small congregation. Is this overkill?

Possibly, and we would rather say so than take the work. Small congregations often need four pages and a clear service time, not eight pages and a blog. Tell us your size on the first call and we will scope it down.

Our last web person disappeared. Can you help?

That is most of what we do. We recover what can be recovered, rebuild what cannot, and put the domain back in the church’s name. It gets quoted before we start.

7Start here

Tell us what’s wrong with the site you have.

One sentence is usually enough for us to say whether we can help, roughly what it would cost, and whether you actually need us. No demo, no discovery call, no pitch deck.

We reply within one business day, in plain text, from a person.
