Well, since I've completely derailed the conversation,......
I do like a bit of thread drift, it often happens in conversation...
.....I know from the little I've heard and read across the board on the net that lodge coffers are absolutely overflowing with money and resources......
While some lodge have money, many do not... and those that do, many are great at spending money on orphans and schools, but when it comes to painting their own building or establishing a web site, they are often hopeless....
I was really reluctant to be identified as a Freemason because of my business... but when I became Master, I realised I was the spokesperson for the lodge and had to be a bit more public.
On web sites and contact info, we list all our officers by first name, but without surnames. Contacts are only listed for those who agree.... we have our own domain but our GL creates a subpage on its own url with lodge details. I like that because it backlinks most Lodges web sites, but also drives traffic to GL's site... here is a sample of their profile page

The problem with web sites is they are not very interactive like Facebook or here... but they still act as an advert and info repository. I like having a lodge web site because we control it and can add to it at will. It has over 500 pages of articles, most written by us. Having your own url also allows to have
Sec@lodgename.com and master@lodgename etc... its especially good for the Sec when the job gets passed on. It's actually not expensive to run a google site, which is good, because I pay for five of them...
