Why is my layout so limited?
The limitations of OnePageChurch.com are intentional and are in place to keep you focused on including only the information necessary for someone looking for your church online. The websites provided at OnePageChurch.com are not intended to be sued as permanent websites for your ministry, just a useful placeholder until you can get something more fully featured.
The creation of this website and the one page website for churches concept was inspired by an idea that Terrell Sanders of MinistryCOM presented in a webcast which can be viewed here.
Why is this site in Beta?
My hope is to improve the one-page design being offered as well as improve the way sites are built out, finding a happy balance between ease and flexibility. I can't do that until I start getting feedback from users and others in the community and so I consider this project to be in beta. If you have any ideas about how to improve OnePageChurch.com, feel free to contact me using the form at the bottom of this screen.
How easy is it to make one of these sites?
If you've ever typed an email, you can create a website here. If you happen to have a little HTML knowledge then you should have no trouble adding the little buttons you see on the Demo Page.
How do I use my own domain?
To use your own domain with your one page site, click on the Settings button in the toolbar at the top of the page and then click the Advanced tab. You'll need access to your domain's DNS settings as well.
