Church Website Audit
And Church Website SEO Assessment
Your church website should help people find you, understand you, and trust you.
Too often, it does the opposite.
Most pastors don’t wake up thinking, “We need branding help, a church website audit, or even church website SEO help.”
They wake up hearing things like:
“I couldn’t find anything.”
“Your website is confusing.”
“We checked you out online but weren’t sure what you believe or who you’re for.”
That’s not a design problem. That’s a communication problem.
A strong church website audit doesn’t just fix confusion. It also strengthens your church website SEO, so people can actually find you when they’re searching online.
At Be Known For Something®, we help churches uncover the real issues holding their website back, then give them a clear, practical path forward.
Why your church website matters more than ever
Research consistently shows that most people check a church’s website before visiting in person.
If your website is unclear, outdated, or poorly structured, many will never take the next step.
Your website is your:
Digital front door
Primary communication hub
First impression for your community
If it’s broken, your digital ministry isn’t functioning properly. You need a Church Website Audit.

Why we start with websites and a Church Website Audit
(even when branding is the real issue)
Here’s the truth:
Website help often leads to branding clarity. And branding clarity almost always requires website improvement.
Most churches don’t need theory. They need someone to help them see clearly and move forward confidently.
That’s what these services are designed to do.

When appropriate, we can recommend or coordinate website development through trusted contract partners.

Let’s find out what’s really going on and what to do next.
Church Website Audit & Assessment FAQ
They’re often used interchangeably.
On this page, Website Audit refers to a structured review of your church website from a communication, branding, and usability perspective. The 60-minute Website Assessment is the live session where we walk through that audit together and give you clear next steps.
Both, but clarity comes first.
Most website issues are actually branding and communication problems, not design flaws.
We look at how clearly your church is understood before worrying about visuals or rebuilding.
Yes.
You’ll leave with prioritized, practical recommendations, not vague feedback. We focus on what matters most for real people visiting your website.
Not as a first step.
Strategy always comes before development. When rebuilding makes sense, we can guide the process or recommend trusted development partners.
No.
This works for churches of all sizes. Clarity matters just as much for a church of 75 as it does for a church of 7,500.
Yes.
Our church website audit includes practical insights that improve clarity, structure, and church website SEO. The deeper coaching option teaches you how to apply SEO principles long-term so your church can be found by the right people.
That’s up to you.
Some churches implement the recommendations themselves. Others ask for coaching, branding help, or website support. There’s no pressure. The goal is clarity.
No.
This is a working session. You’re paying for insight, experience, and practical guidance. If you want help beyond that, we can talk about it later.
