Free Adventist Website Hosting
Your church may already have a free basic website hosted on the Internet!
Yes, free easy-to-use Content Management System (CMS) websites are available to local Adventist churches and other institutions in certain territories of the world-wide Seventh-day Adventist Church denomination. Most of these free websites are hosted on the "netAdventist" Content Management System (CMS), a software product that has been adopted by the General Conference (GC) as the standard website platform for the global Adventist Church. The software is made available free of charge to denominational administrations and entities that wish to use it. However the GC provides only the software for free. The administrations that want to use the netAdventist software are responsible for providing the server service for hosting the network of netAdventist websites that are produced by the software. When the netAdventist software is installed on a server, it is typically configured to produce a simple basic website for each local church in the territory of the administration providing the service. Each local church can then develop it basic website into a more sophisticated site to better promote their church within the community.
