Frustration Free Websites for the Busy Church Leader

We have a simple import tool and video tutorial that walks you through importing the posts on your current site to your PastorBlogs site.

Of course, if you hit a snag we'd be happy to get it done for you!

We get it! Every pastor at one point or another has been gung ho about starting a blog to help, disciple, inspire and coach. They do it all on their own and they’re pretty consistent for a few months. 

Then Easter happens and you’re playing catch up. Then a team member leaves and you have to pick up the slack until someone else steps in. Then you fall behind in sermon prep because of your back to school outreach. A new ministry starts and you now have another direct report.

Your blog is the first thing to take a back seat, and for one reason. We enjoy blogging and creating content but we haven’t made the transition from a ‘good idea’ to an ‘invaluable tool and resource.’ Finally you login after months to write and you get overwhelmed with a crowded dashboard, tons of update notifications, and it takes forever to load because your site isn’t optimized and you don’t know where to start and AHHH! IT”S NOT EVEN WORTH IT ANYMORE! And you log out till your next ‘gung ho’ stint begins next year. 

PastorBlogs can you you in a few ways:

• A simple dashboard that lets you do what you need to do and not get bogged down in any details.
• A private FB group of other church leaders that use PastorBlogs for you to be inspired by and *hopfully* encourage others with your own insight. 
• Consistent communication from us that provides accountability, writing prompts, and suggestions for your next post. 
• Tips and tricks to help you prioritize your content and become more of productivity ninja in general. 
• We handle everything on the backend (hosting, security, updates, optimization) so you can give your attention to your content and your audience.

Tons of people think so. Our promise to you is that you’ll feel capable and confident using your website. Our entire toolset was chosen with church leaders (and volunteers) in mind. Simple, clean, professional and focused.

Being in ministry doesn’t just mean that we speak your language…it also means we know your frustration and pain points!

I started working with websites through my experience with a horrible church website as a staff pastor and my journey to make it better! Changing the simplest thing was a pain and the learning curve was ridiculous. It sparked a question in me: I wonder if I can help pastors and churches that are as frustrated as I was?  Since that I have spent 1000's of hours building custom websites for churches and ministries. 

The biggest piece of feedback I get from PastorBlogs users and from my custom clients alike is how easy it is to make the changes they need to make. I've spent years doing all the troubleshooting, learning curve-ing, hoop jumping, trial and error-ing and pulling my own hair out so you wouldn't have to. Our tutorials are thorough. Our page builder and platform is top-notch and simple. And our support is fast and stellar. 

Absolutely!

When you sign up you'll give your site a Title and a site URL. Think yourname.pastorblogs.com. 

Once you login you'll be able to follow our tutorial to connect your domain to your pastorblogs site in just a few steps. 

If you need help, we'll even handle this for you.

Great question! The simple answer? Strategy.

We believe that church websites should be focused on potential new visitors to plan their visit and church members to find sermons, events and so on. Essentially, church stuff. That's your audience.

And if you only blog on your church's website you are 1) limiting your content's reach to just who your church website reaches (visitors and church peeps) and 2) limiting how strategic you can be with your content and topics.

A church's blog should be strategically focused around church life and current endeavors, not the leadership blog you want to start or the coaching site for other church leaders. For example, we use our church blog during 21 Days of Prayer in January to push out content, prayer points and encouragement to our church during that season. 

PastorBlogs is separate from your church allowing both to be strategic and focused with the added benefit of allowing you to expand your audience beyond your church's members and visitors. 

Yes you're a church leader, but I bet there's stuff in you that doesn't make sense to just share on your local church site?

Maybe you want to help and coach other pastors? Maybe you're a staff pastor that wants to help others in your specific area? Maybe you want to focus on certain topics? Maybe you want to expand your ministry beyond your church? 

Whatever the reason, you have a voice that goes well beyond the reach of your local church and we want you to use that voice!
