Get Your Own Site Up and Running–Fast!

January 12th, 2006 by Matthew | Filed under Mormon.

If you're new here, read more about the More Good Foundation. We help members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormon church) share their beliefs on the Internet. Learn more about what Mormons believe or talk with Mormons at LDS.net.

I’d like to say thank you to all those who have contacted me lately about starting a new Website. We expect that having lots of sites, each with lots of content, will have a powerful impact on search results. We will let you all know when these sites are up and running. It is very important that we are all linking our sites together, using keyword relevant text in the links (instead of “click here”).

We have been focusing on temple sites these past few weeks, with a special emphasis on the phrase “Mormon Temples.” You can find a list of the new sites we have created at the bottom of my comments. If you have your own website please add a link to any or all of these sites. You may find one that is close to your home, or one of your favorite temples. Odds are fairly good that you live near a temple that is not yet on this list. We can help you create a site for your favorite temple in just a few days, or you can add a couple more pages to your already existing site.

On a different note, many of you want to help with the Foundation’s efforts but may lack the skills to create a whole new site. We can help. If you are wondering what you can do (and what we can do for you), feel free to give me a phone call at 801-705-5122 or write me an e-mail at mhall@moregoodfoundation.org. Let me know what it is you enjoy doing and together we kind find some ways for you to get involved.

On the other hand, you may have some great skills but are having trouble finding something worthwhile to do. Again, contact me so that we can find something for you. We are constantly starting new projects and need all the help we can get. The possibilities are great; we just need to make the initial effort. Here are some of the great websites we have created so far for individual temples, focusing on content that is easily understood by non-members:

* Oakland (www.OaklandTemple.org) * San Diego (www.SanDiegoMormontemple.org) * Las Vegas (www.LasVegasMormonTemple.org) * Manhattan (www.manhattanmormontemple.org) * Newport Beach (www.NewportBeachMormonTemple.org) * Los Angeles (www.LosAngelesMormonTemple.org)

We need links to these sites; please consider adding the links to your own sites, to one or all of these temples. Soon we expect to have sites available for the following temples:

* St. Louis
* Louisville
* Palmyra
* Nauvoo
* Salt Lake
* Jordan River

Again, if you would like to have your own temple site, let us know and we can help you with it.
