Geographic reach
Regional — Diocese of Mississippi
Website type & positioning
Diocesan website for an Episcopal judicatory serving parishes and missions across Mississippi
90-day targets
Reach 100% of diocesan parishes with monthly communications; grow email subscriber list to 2,000+ within 90 days; publish new content multiple times per week; increase unique visitors and returning readers from across the diocese.
Content strategy
Publish a few times per week with a steady rhythm of diocesan news, bishop's messages, parish spotlights, liturgical and formation resources, and event announcements.
