Built for uptown Shelby and the county it anchors.

Shelby is the seat of Cleveland County, and it shows on the square: the 1907 courthouse, the storefronts of a Main Street America district, the crowds for a show at the Don Gibson Theatre or the Earl Scruggs Center. It is a working town with a real downtown, and the businesses here deserve a website that looks the part.

We build for the people who actually run this place: the restaurant off the square, the contractor covering the county, the law office and the clinic, the shop trying to pull customers from Kings Mountain and the Charlotte commute. Every site is designed and coded around your business, not stamped out of a template.

Serving Shelby, Kings Mountain, Boiling Springs, Forest City, Rutherfordton & the Charlotte metro

What clients say

"The restaurant itself is beautiful, but our old site made it look like a chain. Jarred built something that finally matches the atmosphere inside these walls. Now people book before they even walk in."

Owner, Ember & Oak Steakhouse
"Our users live on their phones and the old site was unusable on mobile. Jarred rebuilt the entire front end, it looks incredible and actually works where our audience is."
