5-Minute Fix: Add Social Media Icons to Your Website

This is a picture of a man's arms and hands holding a tablet with a screen displaying the words CONNECT and six social media graphics in a two by three grid. One of the most common problems we see with websites today are pieces of information are missing or functionality is broken here and there. These seemingly small issues slowly cascade into pain points and frustrations that ultimately make a website a terrible experience for its visitors and for its owner.

However, there is some great news! Some of the most common issues can be fixed rather quickly! Here at Worship Times we have found that these issues are consistently recurring because many office administrators, communication directors, or whomever is updating your ministry’s website don’t know where to start looking for a fix. That is totally understandable! Running a ministry is a full-time job. Having a working, beautiful website should not be!
