5 Signs Your Website Is Holding Back Your Ministry or Message

Your website should be your biggest cheerleader—the space where your message shines and people instantly know, “Yes, this is for me!” But sometimes, instead of working with you, it quietly works against you.

Here are some tell all signs that your website just might be working against you:

1. You feel a little embarrassed to share it.
If you find yourself saying, “Don’t judge my website—it’s old!” … your website is waving a white flag for help.🏳️

2. People can’t figure out what you do.
Clarity is kindness. If your visitors leave confused instead of connected, your message isn’t reaching hearts the way it should.

3. The vibe doesn’t match the vision.
Outdated, cluttered, or cookie-cutter design can make your message feel less clear and less inviting than it truly is.

4. It’s not mobile-friendly.
Your website might look great on a desktop, but most visitors will find you on their phone. If they have to pinch, zoom, or scroll too much, they might leave before getting to know your message.

5. You’re carrying the whole load yourself.
Your website should be your teammate—automating tasks, collecting emails, booking clients—so you can focus on the people, not just the tech.

🫶🏾Friend, if even one of these made you nod “yep, that’s me,” know this: you’re not behind—you’re simply ready for a website that finally cheers you on.
