Church leaders, are people actually finding your church online? Every day, thousands of people search for a church near them—but if your church isn’t showing up on Google, you’re missing out on real connections. Many churches lean heavily on social media, but overlook the power of SEO, Google Ads, and website optimization—the same strategies that local businesses use to attract new customers.
In this episode, digital marketing expert Chandler Boyce breaks down the EASY fixes churches can implement to increase visibility, attract more visitors, and make the most of their online presence in 2025. We dive into the biggest church marketing mistakes, why Google is the first place people turn when looking for a church, and the website headline every church should avoid.
We also explore low-cost, high-impact marketing strategies, including how to optimize your Google Business profile, improve local SEO, and set up Google Ads effectively. Plus, we tackle the common resistance churches have toward digital marketing and how to be a good steward of your budget while investing in long-term growth.
Here’s the deal: if your church isn’t thinking beyond social media, you’re missing opportunities. This episode is packed with practical, proven strategies to help your church show up where people are already searching and ultimately connect with more people in your community.
