What a temple website needs to do
Temples vary widely, so the site should use the language of your tradition for services and festivals. Common pages cover daily worship times, festival calendars, community classes and volunteer opportunities, plus a visitor page explaining etiquette, parking and what to expect.
We use the wording your priests, monks or board provide for religious content and never invent explanations. Donations link to the tool your temple already uses, and we do not build member-only areas.
People searching for a temple usually decide in seconds. Your site should answer the questions below before they have to ask.
See worship times
Daily and weekly
Plan a visit
Etiquette and directions
See festivals
Calendar
Give or volunteer
Approved links
Timing matters. Major festivals and holidays bring the highest traffic for schedules and event information.
The pages a temple website needs
A temple site does not need dozens of pages. It needs the right few, each doing one job:
- ✓Home — welcome and times
- ✓Worship and festivals
- ✓Programs — classes and community
- ✓Visitor guide — etiquette and parking
- ✓Give and contact — donations and questions
Need a page for every service or town you cover? The larger packages give you room to grow.
Mistakes we see on temple websites
