Choosing A Page Name For Your Ministry

What exactly do we mean by this? 

 

When you first set up a Ministry for yourself, Find A Ministry gives you a url that looks something like this…..

 

http://www.findaministry.com/FAM123

 

Not very easy to remember, and  certainly not something you could tell your friends to visit.

 

However, once your Page has been VERIFIED you are able to claim your own unique Ministry URL.

 

So now your Ministry URL can be www.findaministry.com/YourChosenName

 

For example: http://www.Find A Ministry.com/myPage

 

According to Find A Ministry Terms & Conditions

 

Ministry Page Names were created to make it easier for people to find Ministry pages and share with others. As a reputable Ministry, your page name should be straightforward and easy to remember.

 

Find A Ministry encourages you to consider the following when creating a page name for your Ministry:

 

  • Create a name that is as close as possible to your Ministry name (e.g. SteadyWorship). for a Music Ministry
  • If you own the rights to a given name, make it your page name so that others cannot obtain it.
  • Page Names can only contain alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9).
  • Choose a page name you will be happy with for the long term. Page Names are not transferable.
  • Your page name must adhere to Find A Ministry’s Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. Therefore, you do not choose names that are offensive or have a profane meaning

There are a few things to consider before creating your page names.

 

  • Once created if can’t be changed
  • Find A Ministry is indexed by search engines quicker than some websites and therefore your Ministry page could appear in the search results quicker than your website
  • Make sure you follow their terms & conditions to ensure that you can keep your page names.

So now you have decided on your page Name, follow these steps to claim it.

 

Once logged into Find A Ministry follow these simple steps:

  • Go to www.findaministry.com/my_ministries
  • Select “Select Edit Button from Dropdown associated with your page
  • If your Ministry has been VERIFIED you will be able to choose a name .
  • Enter your desired page name and click on “Submit Page Name”
  • If it’s available, your Ministry page will be updated

Now you can send out your new Ministry URL – http://www.Findaministrycom/YourChosenName
