Every website plan gets every feature.

Free Website Setup

Your website will be setup by one of our website experts for free. We add in your first 8 pages for you so you spend less time creating your content and more time sharing your ministry. You are free to add more pages, edit the default pages, or remove the default pages. Either way, you'll have your website up and running in a matter of minutes instead of days!

Easy Sermon Podcasting

We've teamed up with Sermon.net to automatically display your sermon podcasts on your Ministry Path website. Just upload a sermon file to your FREE Sermon.net account and it instantly appears on the Sermons page on your website. Visitors can stream the sermon on your website or download the file directly to their computer or iPod. Get your FREE Sermon.net account today!

Search Engine Friendly

Every website has built in features for enhanced search engine optimization so prospective visitors can find your website on Google and other search engines. Features include automatic XML sitemap and regular sitemap generation, SEO friendly URLs (ie http://yourchurch.com/ministries), Google map, and extra long titles to add additional keywords.

Calendar

We went with the best of all possible solutions when it comes to calendar integration - we've integrated the free Google Calendar into your Ministry Path website's calendar. All you have to do is enter in your email address associated with your Google Calendar and all your events show up on your website. Don't have a Google Calendar yet? What are you waiting for? It's free and super easy to manage!

Blog

The reality is that if your church website is not updated on a regular (at least weekly) basis, your members and prospective visitors will have no reason to keep coming back. A blog or news page is perfect for keeping your site fresh and up to date. Use it as a true blog with comments, or simply use it to add news articles to your site. The possibilities are endless!

Easy Content Management

We've made it easy for you to manage your church or ministry website. Add pages, events, blog posts and sermon podcasts easily and automatically. Uploading pictures and adding YouTube videos is a breeze as well. You don't have to be the church nerd in order to manage your church website - anyone can do it!

Slideshows and Photo Galleries

Your new website will come with a beautiful home page slideshow to which you can add and remove photos and captions. But we didn't stop there. You can add unlimited photo galleries to any page of your website. And just like everything else, it's super easy to manage!

Accept Donations and Gifts

PayPal is an easy way to collect donations, tithes and other monetary gifts on your website. Best of all, there is no monthly fee and integration with your MinistryPath.com website is a snap. Just enter in your PayPal email address and you're all set to receive single donations, weekly donations and monthly donations.

Social Networking Integration

We know how critical it is to connect with your members and prospective visitors via social networking. That's why we've made it easy to integrate your ministry's facebook and twitter pages into your website. Just paste in your facebook page address and twitter username and you're all set. It's so easy!

Site Search

Every website comes with an integrated website search function. As your site grows and you add more and more pages and blog posts, visitors will find it very simple to enter a search term, click search, and find the information for which they are looking. Your prospective visitor will love it!

Drop Down Menu Navigation

Keeping your website's navigation organized is critical - especially when you add more than a handful of pages. Our system makes it easy to add new pages to existing categories and will automatically create drop down menus within the given category. Now your visitors can visit any page of your site with one simple click!

Google Analytics

When it comes to tracking visitor statistics such as number of visits, referral sources, time spent on site and more, the free Google Analytics tool is the best of the bunch. Just paste in your Google Analytics tracking code one time, and it's automatically added to all your pages so you can track visitor statistics and more!

HTML Code Access

If you are an advanced user and like to get down and dirty with the HTML code of your page, you can easily switch between design view and code view with one click of the mouse.

User/Member Management

You can create private pages that only members can access. Create as many private pages as you want and give users access by assigning a username and password for each individual member. Best of all, you guessed it...it's easy to do!

Custom Design Available

If your church or ministry would like a professional website designer to custom design a theme just for you, let us know. We can customize one of our current designs or produce an entirely new design from scratch. Prices start at only $995. Get more info!
