There are many ways to get a free
church website. But we must define free and look at
the many other costs at other vendors that could potentially
work alongside an active and functioning website
for a church. Church web site hosting would be one of
these possible additional costs. Others include email accounts
and ongoing web site maintenance. So is there such a thing
as a free
church website?
Web hosting can cost from $10-$25 per month at other vendors.
Lower costs usually means slower servers and tech support
that is below standards if available at all. It is very
important that you do not find yourself using one of those
types of vendors.
Email with a web site differs from your usual ISP email
or web-based email services like Yahoo, Hotmail, etc. Your
free church web site email would be based on your domain
name and these accounts cost more money at other vendors.
Web site maintenance can also cost more money at other
vendors. Every time you want to make a change to your web
site, you may have to find someone to manage and then also
pay them for each and every edit. As we see, a free
church website may be hard to find.
