DIY / template

A theme you rent or rearrange.

Faithlife Sites, Subsplash, Tithely, ChurchSpring, and REACHRIGHT are still a template or a platform. You log in, pick a look, and assemble the blocks yourself — or pay a monthly fee for the software.

Custom studio

From $2,000. Under $3,000.

Journey Digital designs and builds a custom church website — no templates, no clip art. Service times, sermons, ministries, and a visit page a stranger can use on a phone. From $2,000. You own the work.

The honest three-lane frame

A church website under $3,000 does not have to be SaaS.

A church website under $3000 does not have to be a monthly SaaS like REACHRIGHT. DIY builders rent you a theme. Agencies start much higher. Journey Digital is the custom studio lane: from $2,000, we design and build a site around your congregation — not a cautioned freelancer band.

The longer cost breakdown is in the Journal: how much a church website costs. Prefer a custom path over a builder? Read Faithlife Sites alternative.

And if $2,000 is more than your church can put toward it right now, still write us. We would rather hear from you than have a pastor stay quiet because the number felt too big. We will tell you honestly what we can work out.
