Did you know?The whataboutjesus.com website ranks #1 for the search term, "first 5 books of the bible," a term that received 6,600 searches in the US last month. The wels.net website ranks #1 for the search term "family devotions," a term that received 880 searches in the US last month. The wels.net website ranks #1 for the search term "lutherans vs. methodists," a term that received 1,300 searches in the US last month. ...this is only the beginning of the list. 🤔 What if we had a way to capitalize on all of this awesome traffic? A way to connect these real people with real congregations? What if the family devotion page had a popup that said, "Enjoying our family devotions? Find a kids ministry in your area." ...and the first 5 books of the bible page had a popup that said "We have in-person Bible classes all over the US — find one near you." ...and the lutherans vs. methodists page had a popup that said, "Still have questions? Contact a pastor." Something like this? To be clear, no one has asked me to do this. This is a personal side quest. 🤠 In order to build it, I need 3 things: time, access to an advanced AI model, and access to a customizable chat widget. All three of these things cost money. Would you be willing to support this project and help me funnel more traffic into local congregations? Click here. I wouldn't ask if this wasn't 1) an expensive tool to develop and 2) potentially very worth the effort. What do you think of this concept? Do you have any ideas for implementation on your own website or in other spots across the web? Just reply! 📨 |
