Company History
NetMinistry was launched in August of 2002, with its proprietary software initially tested by over 40 organizations.
From the beginning, the attitude of the small division was to fulfill the vision that God birthed within the
initial team. Almost immediately, the program grew to include advanced services and products, such as e-commerce
systems, relationship management, and robust content management systems for its rapidly growing customer base.
In 2003, NetMinistry saw instant success, as hundreds of organizations used the program to take advantage of its
many perks. Organizations such as Athletes For Christ, Marketplace Leaders, and others found a virtual home on the
NetMinistry platform, pushing the barriers of the initial program further. Eventually, a second version of the
software was needed. In January 2004, NetMinistry 2.0 launched, blessed with feedback from its valuable members.
In October 2004, ChurchForce invested $250,000 from the sale of its career website, ChristianJobs.Com, in order to power the
initiative of building 2,000 effective church, ministry, and Christian business websites by December 2005. The team and resources
were expanded, and the race was on.
In January 2008, NetMinistry was upgraded to the Inspyre Rendering Platform, powering the websites of over
1,600 organizations around the world, and having served over 3,000 websites through its unique program. From its inception, NetMinistry has donated over
$6 million in design services, with no end in site.
Infrastructure
NetMinistry websites are hosted on high-end custom-built, dual Xeon servers equipped with 4+ gigabytes of RAM, RAID-5, and
other features to increase redundancy and performance. They are housed within one of two Qwest Cyber Centers in Florida, with access up to OC48 or OC192
connectivity. The NetMinistry racks are protected by Qwest's multimillion dollar security infrastructure - 24/7
surveillance, armed security, multiple ID checkpoints, hand scans, and other advanced security systems. All of this
is housed in a bullet-proof, weather-proof, bomb-proof building with government-level security. Our partnership with Keenan Technologies
assures that we always have the latest network security features, patches, and upgrades for our data center.
NetMinistry has gone to the further measures to insure that its members have continuous, uninterrupted service, boasting
a 99% uptime history. Your website is safe, secure, and reliable when hosted within the NetMinistry Data Center.
