Synagogue websites should be welcoming, look great, be easy to manage by your staff and/or lay people, and efficiently communicate information to your community. Does yours?
We create mobile-friendly website designs that are user-friendly and make it easy for your visitors to find what they are looking for.
We build all of our websites using the popular Wordpress content management system, and will customize it to meet your needs.
We can build a Wordpress Multisite network so that your synagogue can manage multiple websites through one dashboard.
We build forms so that a synagogue's congregants can make donations & other payments easily through the website.

"We are so thrilled about our new website! Hirsch was a pleasure to work with and accommodated our synagogue's unique requests and functionality needs. He kept us on track and enabled us to meet our deadlines and launch date. We have received great feedback on our synagogue's new website and love that it is dynamic and flexible to grow with us over time."
I have been working professionally with websites since 2001, working exclusively in, and focusing on, the Jewish community. My goal is to take modern website design trends and apply them in order to build synagogue websites that provide a welcoming face to a synagogue community, while allowing synagogue members to easily find the information they are looking for, or complete common tasks of synagogue life.
All of my synagogue websites are built using WordPress so that they are easy to manage and update.
I offer a wide range of website knowledge to my synagogue web design clients from my years of experience working in the Jewish community. I take pride in the work I do for each synagogue client, and value my relationship with each synagogue design client.
I am a member of Beth Meyer Synagogue in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Having an outstanding synagogue website that your synagogue’s members actually want to visit takes a lot of work. A modern design helps, but the synagogue also needs a long-term strategy for how they’re going to get people to actually use the website. Here are some strategies to help synagogues accomplish that.
Why do I build all of my synagogue websites using Wordpress? Because it’s so easy to manage a website with, and because it’s such a flexible system to design and build a website with. For synagogues, the former is one of the most important selling points, especially since most synagogue websites are managed and updated by volunteers, and Wordpress is a system that volunteers of a non-technical background can easily learn.
For many synagogues, their preschool/early childhood center (ECC) is a main attraction that brings young families into the synagogue community and starts them on their path to synagogue membership. What many synagogues often do is include the preschool content within the main synagogue website, but is that really the best approach? Or would it be better if the preschool had its own separate website, one that better highlights what the preschool offers?
In the time since my original post 5 years ago, web design has changed considerably, particularly with the rise of responsive (mobile-friendly) design. Synagogue website designs also emphasize different things compared to back then, such as full-widths, large & dynamic photos, flat colors, clear calls-to-action, etc.
