Choose your categories, services, tradition and languages

Categories decide where you appear when people browse, services match you to specific needs, and your tradition and languages help people filter. Here's where to set each one.

These details decide where your listing shows up and who finds it.

What each one does

  • Categories decide where you appear when people browse.
  • Services help people with a specific need find you.
  • Languages served let people filter by language. The choices are English, Spanish, ASL, Korean, Mandarin and Portuguese.
  • Tradition tells people your church tradition, for example Baptist, Methodist, Pentecostal / Charismatic, Non-denominational, Catholic or Orthodox. You can also pick No preference.

During setup

In /onboarding:

  1. The Description step has Languages served.
  2. The Categories and Services steps list every option. Tick all that apply.
  3. The Tradition step lists the traditions and has an optional Statement of faith URL (optional).

A church created at /churches/create types its tradition into Denomination or tradition instead.

Later, from your dashboard

  1. Open the Listing assistant on /dashboard and click Draft my listing.
  2. In Review the draft, tick or untick Languages served. Categories and Services show the ones the draft suggested; untick any that don't fit.
  3. Click Submit for publishing and approve it under Approvals.

Good to know

  • If you offer anything in Spanish, add Spanish to your languages so Spanish speakers can find you.
  • The dashboard draft can't add a category or service it didn't suggest, and it has no tradition picker. To add those after setup, contact us through /help.
