We know how large ministries are using media to market themselves but what effects do technological advances afford the local ministries? Can John the Baptist Lutheran get an assist from Diggit.Com? Can St. Francis Catholic get a spot on De.lic.io.us? The truth is that the World Wide Web is open for every one. Even if your church can’t afford to host a website don’t be dismayed Social websites are here to save the day!
MYSpace makes it happen for ST. Paul Community Baptist
This ministry took advantage of the opportunity. www.Myspace.com is often capitalized on when people want to meet new friends or new dates. This ministry decided that Myspace had more potential than that and now has its information on the web. Complete with photo slides and blog entries!

Youtube gives Evangelist Walker a Stage
Another way social websites are helping ministries market themselves is by just giving them an opportunity to be seen. Here is West Virginia born Mark Walker getting a chance to be heard on Youtube.
Other options of new media
If those social sites have too much competition then there are gospel social sites like www.gospeltube.com that can be used instead. This way you can avoid having to compete with the likes of Star Wars kid or Sarah Palin.
Also there are specialty sites like www.Ministrymarketingcoach.com that can help non profit religious groups to advertise their ministries.
