Custom. Website.

Those are two pretty packed words when placed together. You may have a dream for your own site in mind. Perhaps you think of another church’s. But what does it mean to do a custom site with MonkDev? What does it look like? How does it happen? Let’s explore that a little further.

How custom is a custom site?

I usually try my best to not answer a question with another question, but I think we should make a little exception here. How far can your imagination go? Wherever that point might be, we’ll use that as a starting point and go even further. Through intentionally working with churches, MonkDev knows how to take your vision and see the big picture as well as the micro details. We can start with a blank canvas and bring in our best practices.

We constantly adapt to changes in technology and best practices. For example, here is some of our latest custom work:

• Custom Next Steps Path

• Custom Interactive Map with Roll-Over Tool-Tips

• Custom Small Group Finder with Full Search Capabilities and Map

• Custom Evite with Graphic Selection and Personalized Message

• Custom Sermons Detail Page with Video Player and Twitter Interaction

Don’t see quite what you want? Neither did these examples. The glory of custom is that we are ready and willing to dream with you to figure out how to create exactly what your ministry needs.

What’s Included?

From the very beginning we want to get you thinking strategically. MonkDev encourages clients to take a Mission Online Assessment as a starting point to any new project. We specialize in online church strategy to make sure you have a good foundation to build your new site on.

Whether you begin with strategy or not, all custom MonkDev sites include:

• Project Management: You will have a single, real-life Project Manager from start to finish. This will be your go-to person for all of your questions throughout the entire process. You will never have to wonder who to call or where to get answers from.

• Design: Have you seen our portfolio lately? Fresh designs come from great designers and we’ve got some of the best. They will work with you to understand who you are as a church and where you want to go. It’s not uncommon to feel like they are a member of your own staff.

• Development: Front-end or back-end, we’ve got you covered. We have the expertise to bring any custom design to life. The developers will help your team think through functionality and user experience to enhance your website in the latest way.

• Support: What’s a great website if you’re left in the dark once it’s launched? We are right there with you. Your subscription to our content management system, Ekklesia360, includes a 24-hour emergency line and skilled Onboarding Specialist to help you maintain your site long after you launch your site.

What should I expect?

Simply put, expect some real follow-through. All custom sites go to our Professional Services team. They are a creative, lively and ministry-minded group that have plenty of experience doing exactly what you need done. Expect the following:

• Clear, Up-Front Process: We go over the process in the very beginning and give you detailed steps along the way.

• Deadlines: We give them, we meet them and we work well under them.

• Some New Friends: Oh, come on, you won’t be able to help it.

• Dialogue: We aren’t puppets that don’t give any input. We want to work with you to create the best site.

• 30-Day Review: MonkDev won’t just kick you out of the nest. We want to check in with you from time to time and see how things are going, how we can improve and how to make things better for you.
