From the Vatican itself, specifically through the Pope’s profiles on social media, Catholicism has proven to have an increasingly responsive presence on the web, although Catholics are usually creative without breaking the rules in the ways they extend their religiosity into new platforms. Newly born digital portals have embraced new participatory tools that shape other ways of understanding communion, which is a key concept among Christian communities. Rather than dwelling on whether Catholic portals are incorporating secular strategies to foster engagement, we explore the 19 most powerful Catholic websites according to Alexa ranking, and divide them into different categories that allow us to analyse how they build communities and thus foster the concept of belonging, which is one of the aims that they pursue. Data have been collected in three different moments (2014, 2015 and 2016) where these websites, belonging to 5 languages (Spanish, English, French, Portuguese and Italian) from 9 countries have been taken into account, according to Catholic population indexes.El debate sobre cómo las instituciones católicas globales han utilizado las nuevas herramientas digitales ha adquirido un rol relevante que va más allá de las limitaciones litúrgicas. Se basa en la participación, la justicia social y los nuevos contextos en los que alcanzar un nuevo target. Desde el mismo Vaticano, a través de los perfiles del Papa en las redes sociales, el catolicismo ha demostrado tener una destacada presencia en la web. A pesar de que los católicos no rompen las normas, son creativos cuanto a los formatos con los que extender su religiosidad a las nuevas plataformas. Los portales nacidos recientemente han implantado nuevas herramientas participativas que plantean nuevas formas de entender el concepto de comunión, clave para las comunidades cristianas. Más allá de detenernos en si los portales católicos incorporan estrategias seculares para promover la participación, exploramos las 19 webs católicas más relevantes según el ranking Alexa. Las dividimos en diferentes categorías que nos permiten analizar cómo construyen comunidades e impulsan el concepto de pertenencia. Los datos se han recogido en tres momentos distintos (2014, 2015 y 2016). Las webs localizadas son en 5 lenguas (español, inglés, francés, portugués e italiano) y provienen de 9 países diferentes.Fundación iS+D para la Investigación Social AvanzadaUniversitat Ramon Llull.

description The discussion regarding how global Catholic organizations have employed the new tools of digital media has become increasingly poignant and no longer focuses on liturgical limitations but on participation, social justice and new frameworks for reaching new targets. From the Vatican itself, specifically through the Pope’s profiles on social media, Catholicism has proven to have an increasingly responsive presence on the web, although Catholics are usually creative without breaking the rules in the ways they extend their religiosity into new platforms. Newly born digital portals have embraced new participatory tools that shape other ways of understanding communion, which is a key concept among Christian communities. Rather than dwelling on whether Catholic portals are incorporating secular strategies to foster engagement, we explore the 19 most powerful Catholic websites according to Alexa ranking, and divide them into different categories that allow us to analyse how they build communities and thus foster the concept of belonging, which is one of the aims that they pursue.
