To look at the Chevis Oaks Baptist Church website, click here.
In setting up the website, I first looked for an inexpensive site provider that would be user-friendly. After searching for a bit, I came across Weebly. Weebly is better than inexpensive - it is free. I did, however, spend about $20 on a simple domain name for the church. Originally, I had wanted to find a Christian site provider, but the ones I found were too difficult for a non-techno like me to use.My goal for the site is that it will be useful for both members and visitors. In order to do this, I tried to keep the site simple in design. If you look at the site, you will not see a lot of flashy graphics or anything of that sort. Rather, any user should (I hope) be able to click on the site and quickly find whatever he is looking for.
I'd like your feedback. Please take a few minutes to look the site over, and then return to this post to leave comments. I am certainly open to making changes. I have asked several members of Chevis Oaks to look it over. I'd also like feedback from others from afar.
Thanks for your help!

Looks pretty Good Eric! Glad you found something that works for your church!
Brian,
Thanks!
The site looks great. You did a real good job. I know how hard it is to create a church website. After we worked so hard to create www.ibcz.ch we decided to go ahead and create a company that designed and hosted church websites that were Christ-centered and easy to maintain - www.acts6two.com. If you have any trouble with Weebly, please feel free to contact us. Cary
Cary,
Thanks for the information. I'll keep that in mind.
Eric,
I recently found your blog, and I checked out your church website. I think you did a great job and I really appreciate the clean feeling of the site. Too many sites get cluttered far too easy, and people can get side-tracked. A church site, in my opinion, should be simple and concise. I believe yours will serve your church well.
By the way, I look forward to being a regular at your blog. Thanks for your commitment to our Savior!
In Christ,
Sonny, aka Zebedee
Sonny,
Thanks for the positive feedback on the church site. I agree with you that many church sites feel cluttered.
Thanks for reading. I'm actually not sure how much longer I will keep blogging at this location. It requires quite a bit of time, and I want to blog on the church site. I'm going to make a decision one way or the other within the next few weeks.
