We have been building websites for Lodges since 2011. If you have any questions see Masonic Website Design FAQs
Here are some a few of the hundreds of freemason lodge websites we have built, click for a larger view, details are below the slideshow
Leyton Grange Park No.5473 – Loads of images and a deep menu are within this fresh looking website. Another one of our great modern masonic websites for a freemason lodge based in Essex. Word continues to spread! View the site here
Lots of lovely white space on the site give it a clean and modern feel. However the website is quite deep with lots of pages in the sub menu’s. There are also quite a few images throughout the site, (all with correct SEO friendly alt tags of course). It’s a pleasure to already see the site climbing the SERP’s, and it will continue to do so with regular content. Why not find out about our prices for your Lodge website by getting in contact?
Peninsula Lodge No.99 – a website for a F and AM Lodge in New Jersey USA. This was an update of an existing (old) site, adding loads of new features to help them promote hiring their venue, and win new members.
needed their old, tired website updating. We moved them to WordPress, kept the page structure in place, and showed them how to easily and effectively update their pages. Since the relaunch, they have been receiving messages about hiring their hall out (a key part of their business plan) and also new members. It goes to show how important first impressions are, they now look like a modern, vibrant lodge, and people want to be part of it.
Testimonial
“Enough cannot be said about the great work Masonic Website did to overhaul our outdated Lodge website. There was initial hesitation about using an overseas designer, but quickly realized we were in great hands with our page being designed by fellow Masons. The entire process was seamless, with all questions, issues and ideas answered and addressed quickly and professionally. The Lodge membership has been very pleased with the outcome as well as some of the updated functionality the page now offers. We received many compliments and even a number of membership interests only in a short time after the updated site went live”

St Georges Lodge 4117 – Simple and effective freemasonry website design for this Essex Lodge who want to attract more, and younger members
Certes Lodge No. 4606 – Currently attracts 3-4 new members every year through its website.
This was one of the very first Masonic websites we designed, for Certes Lodge 4606. Even though it it was built in 2011 it still looks great. It offers the Lodge the balance they were looking for between tradition and modernity.
The site has been generating 3-4 brand new members for the Lodge every year. The Lodge is now at its highest membership number in all 90 years of it’s existence.
We also set up both Twitter and Facebook for Certes, which gives a complete social media presence.
This is another of our sites with really good Google sitelinks:

Brief:
Create from scratch a website for a Lodge of Freemasons based in London. They did not have much content, but wanted to make the site informative, interesting and fun
Aim:
To attract new members and to share information amongst existing members
Also to be able to simply update the site and include the Twitter feed
Solution:
Site built on WordPress.com. Content ideas supplied by us. We also worked hard on the SEO elements so that despite the relative lack of depth to the site, all of the content worked hard and delivered traffic.
Result:
Traffic has grown to exponentially each month since launch. The Lodge has attracted several new members and many enquiries. New content is easy to create, and therefore the site is often updated (note that this is important for a site to rank well in Google Search results).
More and more lodges are creating websites which is increasing the competition, you need to maximise the impact of your site. If it is hard work or impossible to read, all of that effort in creating it is wasted. Unfortunately a lot of existing Fremason sites are old fashioned. Whilst this on the surface is not a problem, it creates three main problems:
- It makes them hard to update, often requiring outside help to even add a simple news story.
- Also many older sites are built on software that doesn’t generate strong search results. In other words it isn’t optimised for Google like WordPress is.
- Finally around 50% (and rising) of all traffic to sites now coming from mobile sources (mobile phones, iPads and other tablets) and your site needs to be legible on smaller screens. If you are attempting to attract new members, they need to be able to read your website.
Wouldn’t you rather be able to update it yourself like the Certes members?
Testimonial
“Certes Lodge were very pleased with the whole experience of working with Masonic Website. The consultation process was easy, despite us making multiple changes at the last minute, and they showed us how to use WordPress so that we now manage the site ourselves. The end result has stood the test of time, and continues to bring in 3-4 new members to the Lodge every year. Our social media strategy has also really paid off in modernising our appeal, and this was originally designed by Masonic Website”
“We would certainly recommend them to any other Lodge”
Worshipful Master – Certes Lodge No. 4606
Emulation Lodge Of Improvement – Maintains contact all year round with its members, and also attracts new members. Still one of our favourite website designs, the Emulation Lodge of Improvement website design mixes modern with traditional imagery. We feel the bold orange colour of the links is really eye catching, and the members agree.

As part of the package, we also manage this website, adding new content and including downloadable forms. We can create something like this for your Lodge, or order, send us a message today to find out how we can help
RAF Lodge – Members are spread far and wide, the site is a central hub for them. it has also generated new members for the Lodge who were unaware it even existed before they Googled RAF and freemasonry!! The RAF Lodge got in touch having seen previous examples of our work. The brief was to create a site that looked modern, and represented the traditions of the lodge. It also needed to resemble the RAF as much as possible. However there wasn’t much content to work with, and no assets. We created both of these, and the result fulfills the brief. If this is the kind of site you would like for your society then please get in touch
One point of note – The site doesn’t just rank first in Google results for RAF Lodge, it also has the first two places for a more generic search of “RAF Freemason”. This enables the Lodge to reach potential new members for the Lodge who were unaware it even existed before they Googled RAF and freemasonry!!
Lodge Of Prince George No. 308 – With some very strong imagery, and a home page design that shows off the best of the content, the website has more than answered the brief. For this project Masonic Website was required to convert text from printed pages from a ritual book, if this something that you need doing, or your Lodge would benefit from a great looking modern Masonic website, then we would welcome your email to us. The Lodge of Prince George No. 308 is a Lodge consecrated in 1796 in West Yorkshire.
With such a rich history designing a website for this Lodge could have ended in an old fashioned design. However, with modern Masonic website design (and in fact all website design) trends moving towards simplicity, so that they can been shown well on mobile devices, that would have been the wrong path to take. The Lodge got in touch with Masonic Website as they wanted to celebrate the rich history of the Lodge in a modern way, to both attract new members, and make the history accessible to those who were interested.

Here is what the DC said about working with Masonic Website

Semper Amicus No. 8237 – Semper wanted a website to attract new members. The build also had to completed on budget and within a short timeframe. We recommended a WordPress.com site as there was not the need for a more complex solution. The site design can easily be changed if the Lodge want it to, and we have shown the Committee how to update the site as part of the brief.
Pythagoras Lodge Mallorca – This is the first site we have built for a Lodge under the Grand Lodge Espana. We know there are lots more out there, so if you want to attract new members in Spain, then we would be happy to hear from you. This website is built with WordPress.org rather than Worpdress.com, which is explained in more detail in our FAQ.
For this site the Lodge already had hosting arranged, but were unable to take this to the next stage and actually design the site and launch it. We are always pleased to branch out, and this is the first freemason website design in Spain we have built for a Lodge under the Grand Lodge Espana. We know there are lots more out there, so if you want to attract new members in Spain, then we would be happy to hear from you.
Pythagoras Lodge Mallorca found us through search, and wanted a clean, simple looking website, but that had some quite sophisticated features. We have made it mobile ready of course, and added a members password protected section. (Note that UGLE are not overly keen on members sections). This website is built with WordPress.org rather than Worpdress.com, which is explained in more detail in our FAQ.
For this site the Lodge already had hosting arranged, but were unable to take this to the next stage and actually design the site and launch it. This is not uncommon, and we are happy to work with whatever hosting you may already have arranged, or alternatively to arrange it for you.
We think you will agree with the members that this white based design is eye catching in a modern simple way, and quickly conveys all the relevant information.
University Liverpool Lodge 4274 – What to do when you have an existing website, but you can’t update it? In fact you have lost the passwords to it? Get in touch with Masonic Website, and they will quickly craft (!) you a new one. You can then divert the old one to the new one, and update to your hearts content. In the process you get a site that is mobile ready, looks great, and contains all the info that you want.
The Kent Club – (Note we no longer manage this site, as they manage it internally. So we can’t vouch for the current design.) As an organisation for younger Masons, they wanted a site that could keep members up to date, but also showed off the traditional aspects of Freemasonry, which was reflected in our original design.

From an old, impossible website to a new and updated one, built in php to a new easy to update WordPress.com site that has no hosting fee. We have shown the committee how to use and upload new content.
Testimonial
The Kent Club made contact with Refec, based on their excellent work for the Emulation Lodge of Improvement. In very short order they re-wrote the existing site in WordPress, thereby making ongoing admin and maintenance considerably easier. For us, not only did they bring to bear technical expertise, but also knowledge of best practice in terms of content management. We are very pleased with the end result!
Richard – Assistant Communications Officer – The Kent Club
Edmonton Latymer Lodge No. 5027 – Modern and clean looking. We also provided a password protected members only site to aid Lodge communciation. The site has been approved by Herts Provincial Grand Lodge.
Hibernia Lodge No. 431 – Now that Craft Lodges are launching websites, many Mark and other Order Lodges need to be able to communicate with members both new and old. Hibernia contacted us with a brief to provide a modern, interesting website that represents this historic Mark (and RAM) Lodge’s personality.
Britannic Lodge Of Madeira No.134 – Another international website, a 2 part build the first is a simple holding page, which will then develop into a full blown website.
If you would like a website built for your Lodge, or other organisation, then please get in touch via the contact page.
We built a simple website for this Freemason lodge based in Funchal Madeira
Sometimes you just need to keep it simple, so we built a simple website for Britannic Lodge Madeira, a Freemason lodge based in Funchal, Madeira, off the coast of Africa.
It’s another international website built by us! The initial enquiry came via our contact form, showing how effective a good mobile website can be!!
Design
We made the most important element, the contact form, as the highlight on the front page, and also added the new branding as a background to give it a fresh feel.
If this is something that you would like to do for your Lodge, then don’t delay, get in touch with Masonic Website today!
A great example of how a simple site can work for a Lodge of Freemasons, whether you are based in Madeira, Portugal or anywhere else in the world.
We enjoyed working with Britannic Lodge Madeira and got this site live within two weeks. We can do the same for your lodge
Clean Modern Freemasonry Website Design
Camden Place Lodge
We were very happy to be asked by the prestigious Camden Place Lodge N0. 3042 to design their new website for them. They wanted clean modern Freemasonry website design. Despite a long history they wanted a clean modern look, that also emphasised their focus on charitable giving. We have certainly achieved it with this design, if you woudl liek something similar for you Lodge website then please don’t hesitate to get in touch with Masonic Website.
Hibernia Lodge No 431 Website Design
Now that Craft Lodges are launching websites, many Mark and other Order Lodges need to be able to communicate with members both new and old. Hibernia Lodge No 431 contacted us with a brief to provide a modern, interesting website that represents this historic Mark (and RAM) Lodge’s personality.
New Broomfield Lodge No.7189
Another lovely looking, clean fresh Lodge Website
New Broomfield Lodge No.7189 are based in Harrow West London. They found us on Google, and we worked over several months to create a website that fitted their requirements. It’s fair to say the end results are impressive, this website will enable the Lodge to attract new members in a competitive market. New Broomfield wanted to be front and centre of any prospective Masons thoughts when they are joining Freemasonry. By showing off the Lodge history, and also adding some thought provoking and very useful “thought leadership” articles New Broomfield have positioned themselves as the first port of call for prospective Masons in West London.
They also wanted a way of communicating and storing Summons, messages, images and documents with only their members. If you head to www.newbroomfieldlodge.org/members you will see the Private section in operation there. Simple, yet effective.
Of course we also supplied training and a handbook on how to use the new site, and remain on the end of the phone if the Lodge ever needs us!
We wish them well, and look forward to hearing how many new Freemasons join New Broomfield Lodge specifically because of the site.
