Free Church Website Builder

Why most 'free church website' tools waste your time

• Free Wix/WordPress themes look great in screenshots and terrible on mobile.
• They take 8–20 hours to set up and need ongoing maintenance.
• Google won't index them well without manual SEO work.
• Worst: there's no 'save this church' or follow button — visitors leave and don't come back.

What you actually need (built into Faith Common, free)

• A public church profile with service times, address, map, and photos.
• A 'Save church' button so visitors can return without re-searching.
• Mobile-first design that loads in under 2 seconds.
• Built-in SEO + AI-search structured data (so ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google cite you).
• A visitor follow-up funnel that turns first-time guests into regulars.

5-minute setup

• Step 1: Create a free account at Faith Common.
• Step 2: Search for your church (we may already have it imported).
• Step 3: Claim it — verify you're a leader.
• Step 4: Add service times, a 1-paragraph welcome, 3 photos, and a contact email.
• Step 5: Share the link. You're live, indexed, and findable.

Faith Common vs. paid website builders

• Wix for churches: $17–$59/mo, 8+ hours setup, no member directory.
• Squarespace: $23/mo, beautiful but no church-specific features.
• Subsplash: $99–$499/mo, full app + site but heavy lift.
• Faith Common: $0, 5 minutes, church-specific, optimized for AI search.

Use Faith Common alongside your existing site

If you already have a church website, claim a Faith Common page anyway. It acts as your distribution layer — the place where directory searches, AI-search queries, and new-visitor 'churches near me' searches actually land. Link out to your full site from your Faith Common profile.
