beauty of a blog
web brochure vs. web cafe
no longer “come & see” but “come &
interact”
digital footprints optimized for search

•v a l u e o f a b l o g a s y o u r p e r s o n a l
ministry site
fresh, relevant content-- “between the prayer
letter”
adds valuable texture to your ministry--can show
personal & corporate ministry off with ease
linkable/sharable--each post is a chunk of
information that can be shared by you or a
supporter in the future through a VARIETY of
channels--email, facebook, twitter

corporate ministry site
fresh, relevant content-- those looking for you online
have many more chances to find you if you post
regularly
content ALREADY there--challenge is capturing it &
aggregating it for blog format: audio/video of talks,
training times, testimonies, etc
allows for MULTIPLE people to contribute to content
creation/site update
widgets provide opportunities to maintain site without
effort: think what percent of my current page updates
itself? what sort of widgets can i add to increase
amount of dynamic content on my site?
