Church Growth Consulting – Part 1

This Church Growth Consulting site exists to help Pastors and leaders grow the church.  To that end we provide a wide variety of information.  We believe that the Internet is an amazing tool for church growth.  We work with our sister sites, Church Web Master and Web Ministry Online to cover all aspects of web ministry.  If you are not yet utilizing the Internet in your ministry, we want to encourage you to read the articles on these three sites to see some of the ways you can put the Internet to work to advance the Kingdom of God.  We write most of our Church Growth Software articles on our sister sites, but we thought we would touch on it here for our church growth consulting readers.

On all of our websites we have a software program (Statcounter) that allows us to see what keywords people used to find our websites.  These keywords often lead to ideas we use to bring more people to the sites.  We feel that one of the biggest impacts we can have for the Kingdom of God is to get as many people as we can involved in the process of growing the church.  The more people that visit our websites, the better the opportunity to impact the Kingdom.

Recently we have had some people that came to the site by searching for the keywords “Church Outreach Consultant” and “Church Growth and Technology”. Both of these keywords will make excellent future topics for the website.  We will begin writing articles about both these topics which should draw more people to the site.  This same idea holds true for your web ministries.  As you utilize the software available to tell you what is drawing people to your web ministry, you can beef that part of your ministry up to have even more impact.

Church Growth Blog and Church Planting Blog

On Church Growth Consulting we are trying to reach out to a wider Internet audience with the launch of two new sites; Church Growth Blog and Church Planting Blog.  These site have just been put on the Internet and we are beginning the SEO processes that will help bring traffic to the sites.  Those sites will be set up as a place for people who are actively involved in  Church Growth and Church Planting to share and swap ideas.  They will also be a place for those in the trenches to find encouragement from people who have been there.

Getting new sites noticed on the Internet takes time.  We are going to allow the sites to get a little age on them before we begin actively adding information to the sites.  The hope will be that the sites will ultimately show up for Google searches of the keywords “Church Growth” and “Church Planting” respectively.  We then hope to use those sites to bring traffic to this Church Growth Consulting Site, the the Church Web Master site, and to the Web Ministry Online site.  Stay tuned for the official launch of the sites as they begin to move forward in the search engine results.  If you would like to monitor their journey, you can vist the sites at www.churchgrowthblog.com and www.churchplantingblog.com.

Starting a Couple of New Blogs for Web Ministry

We are starting a couple of new blogs for web ministry here as part of our church growth consulting site.  One of the new sites is Church Growth (www.churchgrowthblog.com) and the other is Church Planting (www.churchplantingblog.com).  These site are being developed to research the latest ideas and principles in the fields of Church Growth and Church Planting.  They will also provide opportunites for people involved in the process to find support and share encouragement with one another.

It will take some time for these sites to begin to get traffic from the search engines.   Our initial focus with these sites will be doing the hard work of making them search engine friendly.  Once we begin to see some movement on the search engines we will change our focus and begin to set the sites up to fulfill the purpose we are creating them for, advancing the Kingdom of God.

We beleive these site will work well with the Church Growth Consulting site, the Church Web Master Online site, and the Web Ministry Online site.  We encourage you to visit all of our sites and pray that they will be a blessing to you.  If you have any questions feel free to contact us at any time.
