About Spiffy
Guiding your church to a great website.
Derek Maxson
Your GuideAbout Spiffy
Spiffy began as a way to help churches understand how to get their websites to be more effective. Pastors came to me for advice to improve their websites. Some of these churches had communications staff and some churches were small with a solo pastor. But all of them had the same problem -- they didn't know how to get their website to be a resource not only to members but to those looking for a church and for those looking for hope in their time of need. So, I created Spiffy to give churches the right advice on what to build how to get it done. We stand in the gap between the church and website designers to meet the specific needs of churches.About Derek

Here's What Church Leaders Want To Know About Spiffy
1. What does a Website Assessment give us?
Most importantly -- a plan! We review your website, and look at it from the perspective of all the types of visitors your web site receives. We give you actionable advice with a step-by-step plan for getting a site done. With our standard plan, you'll receive a written report with specific steps to take. With the complete plan, we also provide a video where we walk through the site and give more detailed visual advice.
2. Why should we work with Spiffy?
Many churches have made sizable investments in a website that doesn't hit the mark. With our low costs to churches, we give you an independent analysis that will give your website team the kind of direction to ensure that your site hits the mark.
3. Do you build websites?
No. We help you by giving actionable advice to your church that helps web designers, artists and developers build a website tuned to the unique needs of a church.
4. You don't build websites but I still need to get one built. Do you have any recommendations?
Yes! We work with a variety of great church website designers and services. We suggest that you use our assessment services to get a plan to move forward and we will help match you with a team to build a great website for your church.
