Want a FREE professional, custom-designed Catholic website?

Free Website from Santa Clara Design

Most people start their web presence with a template website or a free blog on Blogger or WordPress. And that’s great. There’s nothing wrong that. It’s the right way to go for most people.

But if your goal is to stand out or to take your blog to the next level, you should consider a professional, custom-designed website. A few months ago I made the switch from a free Blogger site to the totally-custom BrandonVogt.com (thanks to Kickstart Media!).

I haven’t looked back. It was one of the best decisions I’ve made, as the new site provides a more professional look, allows me to do more with my writing, and has already produced several additional speaking opportunities.

However, here’s the rub: beautiful custom sites typically cost a nice chunk of change.
 

But what if you could get one for free?

 
That’s what Lauren Gulde is offering through her top-notch design service, Santa Clara Design. In honor of St. Clare, the patroness of her business, Lauren is offering a “free, custom designed WordPress site as per your design style and suggestions.”
