The Story of the Isibusiso Solwazi School of Theology
Sibusiso Shobede is a teacher and works at Matamzana Dube High School in the Kwazulu Natal Province. But beyond teaching, Sibusiso always felt he had a calling as a bible teacher:
“In 2004, I started a bible study group for youth. Then it was grown and developed to the level of starting an official institution”.
This institution is the Isibusiso Solwazi School of Theology, which Sibusiso started 8 years ago. The school trains church ministers and “all men and women who want to study the philosophy of theology and philosophy of church ministry”. Anyone interested in learning is welcome at the Isibusiso Solwazi School of Theology.
Sibusiso was reaching and training a great group of people with his school, but he still wanted to reach more. That’s why he decided to build a website for the Isibusiso Solwazi School of Theology.
His main goal? “Get students to study, and partners to join my institution”. He also wanted to display all the information students needed to know. This would include accreditations, courses, programs as well as tuition fees.
His only challenge was finding the right website builder to create his site. That’s where Portmoni comes in.
Why Sibusiso Shobede chose Portmoni
When Sibusiso first discovered Portmoni, he had a few concerns. “Is this real? Will my school be found on Google? How will Portmoni deduct monthly fees?“
These are common concerns for anyone starting out a new website. But with Portmoni, Sibusiso was soon reassured.
First, the 14-day free trial offered by Portmoni allowed Sibusiso to create his site risk-free. He could see by himself that the platform was real and worked for him. Even during the trial, “there were so many people who visited my website”. He was already getting new visitors before paying a cent for his website hosting.
Then, once his site was referenced on Google Search, his traffic grew even more. And as Portmoni automatically submitted his site to Google, he had nothing to do to achieve this.
Finally, after he was convinced by his free trial, he found out that he could safely pay for his site hosting. As there is no long-term contract, he can also easily cancel his subscription anytime.
When asked why he chose Portmoni, Sibusiso said “it’s affordable and it’s user-friendly”. He saw the value of his website, solving both of the concerns he had going in.
And this value has only continued to grow in the years since.
