My first pages of content on the new open Skool AI for Ministry group are now coming up in Google/other search results. It took a total of 22 days from when the group was created for any of the indexed pages to come up in first 2 pages of Google search results. Of course, ranking depends on where people are located, but it's working quicker than I expected. Skool obviously has a high authority rating with around 40 million visits a month. It holds a global rank around #1,200 and a U.S. Rank of #785 FYI- I'm not coming up in AI summaries yet, but I figured that would take time.

Hey everyone 👋 just dropping in as I'm curious about this. Looks very interesting. I'm an online pastor who loves marketing and have run an agency the serves churches for the last 5 years. I'm about to launch a product. Where are y'all from?

So currently, I have a lead magnet on my site for a free website audit (via BrightLocal). I’ve got a few hits from it, but not anything consistent. Other lead magnet ideas I have for SEO/Visibility include: - Ultimate optimization checklist (SEO+AI) - Content templates for Home/Minsitry/Giving pages - 30 minute consult (free) or a 5-minute look video audit (Obviously, haven’t thought of a name for them) Other lead magnets from church marketers I’ve seen include “Church SaaS checklist” or something about Google Ad Grant. Thoughts?

Haven’t introduced myself, but I’m Luke aka “The Content Pastor” I have been working on my business to help churches with SEO/Ai Visibility (or what can be summarized as Brand Visibility imo). Had a few clients by chance, but haven’t found what works to get leads. I’ve been following @Dillon Smith for a while and will probably try the CTA method soon. My cold outreach campaign isn’t working (surprise surprise I guess). I’ve had a handful of conversations but no customers. I have some lead magnet ideas, so I’ll post to get feedback. Other than that, I am also a Youth Director at a small Methodist church (as of 2 weeks ago), married for 5.5 years and have a 10 month old son.

I'm wrapping up my 52 Churches in 52 Weeks tour and have developed a Secret Church Shopper Checklist with 160 specific questions. The result is a pretty comprehensive report. I'm exploring the idea of also offering a "done for you" audit service by hiring locals who use my system and I analyze everything for accuracy. Has anyone had experience with church audits or mystery visitor services? I'm having trouble finding good information online, particularly around pricing. I want to make sure I position this service appropriately, so any insight into what churches are currently paying for this kind of audit would be really helpful.
