staff November 17, 2011

Preparing your website for Holy Week and Easter visitors is the focus of an online roundtable set for 11am EST on Wednesday, January 18, for all diocesan and parish administrators across the Digital Faith Community.

"Using key words and other steps to maximize search function will be highlighted," said Digital Faith CEO Patrick Herold. "Adding key words including 'egg hunt' and "sunrise service' are among proven magnets for increasing traffic."

Roundtable presenters will include DFC member Richelle Thompson of the Diocese of Southern Ohio, who has guided numerous seasonal outreach initiatives engaging local congregations. Roundtable coordinator is DFC member Bob Williams from the Diocese of Los Angeles, who teaches media and content development at Bloy House, the Episcopal Theological School in Claremont, Calif.

Sign-up and log-on details will be circulated after Christmas. A series of roundtable sessions is planned, including a discussion of "Multitasking in Multicultural Multimedia."
