Chattanooga Web Design & Development
We design and build websites that help Chattanooga small businesses get found, look credible, and turn visitors into customers.
§ 01 — What we do
From the first sketch to launch day and beyond — we handle the full picture so you can focus on running your business. See all services.
Custom designs that match your brand and speak to your customers. No templates — every site is built specifically for you and the Chattanooga market you serve.
Get found when Chattanooga customers search for what you offer. We optimize for Google Maps, local search rankings, and the keywords your neighbors are actually typing.
Over 60% of local searches happen on a phone. Every site we build looks and performs flawlessly on mobile devices before we even think about desktop.
Sites need care after launch. We offer monthly maintenance plans — updates, backups, security monitoring, and a real local person to call when something needs fixing.
Get found in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — not just traditional search. We optimize your site's structure, content, and data so AI-powered search engines recommend your business first.
Add intelligence to your website. From AI chat assistants that capture leads and answer questions around the clock, to smart automation that handles bookings and follow-ups — we build AI tools that work for your business even when you're not.
§ 02 — Why Thread & Pixel
We're not an agency in Nashville taking your call between bigger clients. We live in Chattanooga, we shop at your store, and we genuinely care whether your business grows.
Based in Chattanooga. We know the Scenic City, the Southside, and the North Shore — and we know how to talk to the people who live here.
We work exclusively with small and independent businesses. You're never competing for our attention with an enterprise client.
Every site we build scores 90+ on Google PageSpeed. Fast sites rank higher, and higher rankings mean more customers finding you first.
No retainer surprises. We give you a clear quote up front and stick to it. You'll always know exactly what you're paying for and why.

§ 06 — Common questions
Most small business websites we build range from $1,500 to $6,000 depending on size and complexity. A clean 5-page site with a contact form typically runs $1,500–$2,500. E-commerce, booking systems, or custom features push that higher. We give you a clear, fixed quote before any work begins — no hourly surprises.
A typical small business site takes 3–6 weeks from kickoff to launch. We start with a discovery call to understand your business and goals, move into design and your review, then build and test everything before going live. Rush timelines are available for an additional fee.
Yes — and here's why it matters: you don't own your Facebook audience. If the algorithm changes or your account gets restricted, you can lose access to your followers overnight. Your website is a permanent asset you control. It also shows up in Google search results, which Facebook pages rarely do for local service queries.
Local SEO is the practice of optimizing your online presence so you appear when people nearby search for what you offer. That means showing up in the Google map pack, ranking in local search results, and having a well-optimized Google Business Profile. Most people searching "plumber near me" or "web design Chattanooga" click one of the first three results — local SEO is how you get there.
Our focus is the greater Chattanooga metro area — including North Shore, Southside, East Brainerd, Hixson, Red Bank, Signal Mountain, and nearby cities like Cleveland, TN and Dalton, GA. We occasionally take on projects further afield when it's a great fit, so feel free to reach out.
