2.1 Finding GodsWay Web Ministries, Inc. is committed to providing high-quality, affordable websites in a timely manner. Our team is composed of experienced and talented professionals who specialize in developing sophisticated, interactive, and database-driven websites. Please note that the development of your website may take some time. Delays or changes on the client's end, such as delays in providing content, may extend the time needed to complete your website.

2.2 For custom-built websites, we will provide one design concept. When the design is ready for review, we will send you a link to a web page for your approval via email. The design may appear as a visual mock-up, and none of the links will be active at this stage. You will be asked to review the design and approve it, or request modifications. Once the design is approved, it cannot be altered unless additional changes are requested, in which case redesign charges will apply. No redesign work will begin until you receive and approve a price estimate.

2.3 It is the client's responsibility to provide and upload all digital content for their website through the Finding GodsWay Client Account area. Content submitted via email will not be accepted. This includes text, photographs, artwork, and other materials. Acceptable file formats for text are .txt or .doc files (Microsoft Word). We may also accept PDF files if the text can be extracted using a text editor. Hard copies of text or materials will not be accepted. Acceptable formats for images include .jpg, .png, .SVG, .EPS, and .PSD (Adobe Photoshop). Hard copies of images that need to be scanned are not acceptable. Please note that Finding GodsWay Web Ministries, Inc. does not offer copywriting or scanning services.

2.4 Finding GodsWay Web Ministries, Inc. will provide you with a great website, but it is the client's responsibility to regularly review and manage the content of the site. While we understand the needs of churches, we do not have intimate knowledge of your specific congregation or ministry. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that the material you provide is complete and accurate. We pride ourselves on our expertise in web development, but human error can occur. Once you submit changes or revisions, it is your responsibility to review the work to ensure it meets your expectations. Should you identify any errors, please contact us immediately, and we will address the issue as quickly as possible.

2.5 A "site within a site" refers to a website developed within the structure of another website. For example, a church with a preschool may wish to have a separate website for the preschool within the church's main website. Your Web Package covers only one website. If you wish to add a "site within a site," we will provide an estimate for the additional work via email before starting. This work will be charged on an hourly basis at $75.00 per hour.

2.6 Redesign or Major Alterations to Your Custom-Built Website: Your Web Package includes one (1) design and the development of one (1) website. If you request a redesign or significant alterations, please submit your request via email to . We will provide an estimate for the work before it begins.

If your request is considered a redesign or major alteration, you will receive an estimate, which must be approved before any work is started. This work will be charged on an hourly basis at $75.00 per hour.

Note: All redesigns are subject to availability and require advance scheduling.

2.8 We prioritize exceptional client support and prefer to handle all design and technical inquiries in writing via email to ensure clear communication. If you have any questions or issues with our service, please contact us at .

To expedite resolution, please provide as much detail as possible regarding the issue or request. The more information you provide, the easier it will be for our team to address your needs promptly.

3.3 The client is expected to send this content to us as soon as it is available, ideally before each event or announcement is scheduled to appear on the website. We recommend submitting content at least once a month or as needed based on your church's activities. Failure to send updated content regularly may result in outdated information on the website.

3.4 Finding GodsWay Web Ministries, Inc. will not be held responsible for content that is not sent to us in a timely manner.
