Professionally designed WEBSITES FOR SMALL CHURCHES THAT ARE BEAUTIFUL ON EVERY DEVICE:
“Our mission is to help churches communicate the value of following Jesus.
We can help you do this online effectively because we are more than professional website designers – we are ministers as well.
Allow us to demonstrate our love for Jesus by designing and developing an industry-standard site for your church – for free.”
Top 3 reasons to build your church website with One Wheel Marketing
1) Most church website builders know how to market to churches, but not to the rest of the world
Anyone can build a website that performs poorly. It takes years of expertise in online communication best practices to design an experience that attracts new visitors and offers a pleasing experience for members. We've been working with organizations since the infancy of the world wide web and know what it takes to grow your church online.
2) We serve churches out of passion, not for profit
Building websites for churches is our ministry. Our other ministry is starting a church. We feed our families making websites for small businesses and startups. We make websites for churches because we love Jesus and believe in small churches, not because it is a lucrative market.
3) We design on the most beautiful, lowest maintenance, easiest-to-use CMS (content management system)
Most "church website builders" build on WordPress – a high-maintenance, hacker-vulnerable, difficult-to-learn platform. Some church website companies make their own CMS. This is not better. We build on rock-solid CMS Squarespace for beautiful, maintenance-free, mobile-friendly website you can easily learn and grow with your team of volunteers.

Do I need to form a website committee?
We will transfer existing content from your current church website (or Word document) and we don't need anything else to get started. After the site is built, you get full control and you can make improvements and update information easily. You can do this with current volunteers or by forming a team. See below for optional team coaching.
Our current site is run by someone in our church. Can we keep running our site with volunteers?

What if we want to make a bunch of changes during the redesign process?
If you want us to include changes in your redesign and you don't want to wait until you have access to make them yourselves, we are here to help you. Book an appointment and we can do live over-the-phone on-site changes until you are thrilled. Only $75/half hour.

“People look at me like I’m crazy when I tell them I do free websites for churches. As a bivocational church planter, I want Jesus and His church found to be a relevant value to our communities. I would be crazy not to help churches reach people right where they are: searching for answers to life’s questions with their smartphones while about to walk into a pole. ”
