Small Business Web Designers in the Triangle, Built On Partnership & Growth

More Than Websites,

A True Partnership

Barefoot Build started in 2022 when Taylor and Alison Barefoot set out to create a better web design experience for small business owners, one that feels supportive, transparent, and easy to navigate.

Now based in the Triangle region of North Carolina, we build and support custom WordPress websites for small businesses across the U.S.

We believe the best websites are built through collaboration. Our process is straightforward, transparent, and focused on partnership, so you always know what’s happening and why.

From initial planning through launch and beyond, we work alongside you to make decisions that support your goals, your budget, and your long-term growth.

We believe a strong business should be deeply connected to its community, and we take that to heart. After Hurricane Helene impacted businesses in Western North Carolina, we provided free websites to help owners rebuild and reconnect with their customers.

Giving back through discounted services, mentorship, and pro-bono work when possible allows us to support the communities that support us.
