Beautiful website … amazing what people can do with WordPress. Easily the best looking website among conservative churches in the Midwest. A couple suggestions: (1) don’t use mailto: in your email addresses as it presupposes an email client such as Outlook, which many don’t have on their home computers. Instead, display the email address in text but hide it by using unicode characters so that the email addresses don’t become fodder for SPAM bots. Try this one: http://mikezilla.com/exp0012.html (2) Display only links that resolve to meaningful content … no use putting under construction at the top every website is under construction unless it’s abandoned. (3) Search functions are great on websites with millions of pages and multi-millions of data rows … not so much on micro sites; my searches for ‘salvation’ and ‘grace’ yielded no results so it might no be hooked up anyway. (4) You might want to re-evalutate your number of scripts … seems like the number of js files you access is disproportionate with the size and simplicity of the site … never used WordPress but I’ve used fewer js on 6 million dollar websites; and those were JQuery / JQuery UI / Client-side AJAX intensive … so I suspect you don’t need at least half of js files being imported at load time … just a guess.
That said, website looks great and it’s good to see the church in Duluth upgrading. Best regards and I hope to visit soon.
