More Than Websites—A True Partnership

Our Story

Barefoot Build started in 2020 when we, Taylor and Alison Barefoot, combined our strengths in web development with a shared passion for helping small businesses thrive. We saw too many websites that didn’t truly serve their owners—complicated, ineffective, and lacking a personal touch.

We set out to change that by focusing on reliable, innovative, and user-friendly web solutions tailored to each business. Today, we’re proud to have helped clients create websites that work seamlessly, look great, and reflect their unique vision.

Barefoot Build isn’t just a business—it’s a true partnership. As a husband-and-wife team, we balance the demands of running a business with raising our two children in the mountains of Western North Carolina.

We understand firsthand the challenges small business owners face because we’ve built our own business from the ground up while juggling family life. That’s why we’re so passionate about creating solutions that make your life easier, not harder.

At the end of the day, we’re more than just web developers—we’re partners in helping businesses grow, just like we’ve grown ours together.

We believe a strong business should be deeply connected to its community, and we take that to heart. After the devastating floods caused by Hurricane Helene, we have offered free websites to local businesses to help them rebuild and reconnect with their customers.

Supporting small businesses, local entrepreneurs, and organizations is a core part of Barefoot Build’s mission. Whether it’s through discounted services, mentorship, or offering pro-bono work when we can, we love giving back in ways that make a real impact in our community.
