Hey Tim,

Good Questions.

I have not been able to find an stats on the subject. Most of these things come from anecdotal evidence of when I have been looking for a church, and what others have said as well when they are looking. Worship times and location are important because any piece of marketing needs a call to action, the call to action is to visit the church.

&#039;Office Hours&#039;, &#039;Church History&#039;, and &#039;Committee Reports&#039; are not bad to have on a website. However, if those things are easy to find, and I can not find out how to visit the church, I will pull my hair out.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Eric,

Any stats/surveys on what new visitors are looking for when they search on a church?  For example, are they looking for worship times? Location?  

If so, why do so many churches put &#039;Office Hours&#039;, &#039;Church History&#039; or &#039;Committee Reports&#039; above the fold?  As a visitor, this would turn me off as it suggests the church is too self-absorbed to welcome outsiders.

Best, Tim]]></description>
