I build websites that help contractors win work: pages organized around your scopes, set up for search and AI answers, with analytics running from launch. I also design capability statements and brand standards that hold up in front of a superintendent or a procurement board.

03 / How The Work Moves Forward
A Clear Process. A Direct Line to the Person Doing the Work.

Give the work direction.
Positioning, content, design, and technical requirements come together in one scope built around your business.

Why Work With Me
- Strategy, design, build, and launch, handled start to finish.
- Risks get flagged in the written plan before the build starts, not discovered at launch.
- Research first, then messaging aimed at the buyers you want to win.
- Fixed price, set in your proposal before you sign. No change orders hiding in the fine print.
- You get a delivery date at kickoff. If your content and feedback arrive on schedule, I hit it.
The person on your first call writes the strategy, designs the pages, and builds the site. When you ask why something was built a certain way, you get the answer from the person who decided.

08 / Think First
Brand Strategy
Every brand strategy I build starts with research, not guesswork. I study your market to find your best customers and what they need.
I look hard at your competitors: where they're strong and where they leave gaps. Then I define the position only your business can own.
You walk away with a brand roadmap tied to where you want the business to be in five years, and to the values you won't compromise on to get there.
09 / Look the Part
Branding
A brand has to hold up in a bid package, on a truck door, and on a phone screen.
I take the position we define in strategy and turn it into brand standards built for one business: yours. Colors, type, voice, and rules your team and vendors can follow without calling me.
10 / Built to Convert
Web Design & Development
I plan, design, and build every site myself, so nothing gets lost between a strategist, a designer, and a developer. Each project starts with how your buyers search and decide.
I write content that answers real questions and earns trust, and I set up every page for local and AI search so the buyers looking for your scope find you first.
Technical SEO is built in from day one: clean URLs, structured data for rich results, internal links to your most important pages, and tracking through Google Analytics, Tag Manager, and Search Console. You launch with a fast site and the data to keep improving it.
11 / In Their Hands
Print Design
Your brand shouldn't fall apart once it leaves the screen. I design print pieces that match your site and brand, from brochures and business cards to magazine layouts.
You get press-ready files built to your printer’s specs. Take them to any shop and order direct, with no markup.
12 / Get Found
Local Search Engine Optimization
When a buyer in Fort Worth searches for what you do, you want to be the first name they see. That now means Google results, Google Maps, local directories, and AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews.
I find the exact terms your buyers search for and build your pages around them. I keep your business information accurate across the listings Google and AI tools rely on. Then I structure your content so AI assistants can pull clear answers from your site and name you when someone asks for a recommendation.
13 / One Direction. Every Part Working Together.
Strategy First. Then Build What the Business Needs.
Define who you need to reach, what sets your business apart, and what your website needs to accomplish. Give every creative decision a business reason.
01. Clarify the brand.
Research · Positioning · Brand strategy
02. Make the expertise visible.
Content · Web design · Development
03. Build for discovery.
Technical SEO · Site structure · Schema
Align your content and technical foundation so search engines can understand your business. Address crawlability, page structure, metadata, and relevant structured data.
Turn technical knowledge and proven experience into a website people can understand and use. Clear capabilities, purposeful content, and a direct path to inquiry.
14 / Recognition

Black Anchor Design received a United States Senate Certificate of Commendation from Senator Ted Cruz's office in 2021.

16 / Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Black Anchor different from other web design firms?
Black Anchor is a boutique web strategy consultancy, not a production shop. I handle every engagement myself, from the first call to launch. Every site is built from scratch around your business. I diagnose the problem before prescribing a fix, and I set the delivery date at kickoff.
How do you help businesses boost their online visibility?
Fort Worth-specific SEO, hyper-local keyword research, citation building, Google Maps optimization, and content built to get cited in AI answers. The goal isn't traffic. It's being found by the buyer who's already looking for what you do.
Which types of businesses do you specialize in serving?
Critical infrastructure, commercial trades, aerospace and defense contracting, and premium development across DFW and Texas. What they share is a buyer who does their homework before the first call: a prime, a city, or a procurement board.
What is your approach to custom web design?
Every project starts with strategy, not a template. I learn your goals, your market, and who you're trying to reach, then design a site that turns visitors into qualified leads. Design without strategy is decoration.
How do you make sure my website ranks locally in Fort Worth and Dallas?
On-page optimization, keyword-rich content, Google Maps integration, citation building, structured data, and directory management, all built around the DFW market from day one. Local SEO isn't a line item I add later.
Do you provide branding services in addition to web design?
Yes. Branding is a core service, not an add-on: brand strategy, brand standards, and marketing collateral.
How long does it take to build a website with Black Anchor Design?
The Commander: 6 weeks
The Captain: 8 weeks
The Vice Admiral: 10 weeks
The Fleet Admiral: 12–16 weeks
Rush delivery is available on every package except the Fleet Admiral, at a 50–100% surcharge on the package price.
How quickly you send content and feedback also affects the timeline.
What platforms do you build websites on?
Duda, Wix Studio, Webflow, and Shopify, plus Bubble.io for custom web apps. I recommend the right one based on your goals, your content workflow, and what you'll need in three years. I don't build on WordPress because of its ongoing security problems and bloated architecture.
How much does a new website cost?
Web design and branding packages start at $8,500 and scale with size and scope.
- The Commander: $8,500–$10,500
- The Captain: $11,000–$16,000
- The Vice Admiral: from $16,500
- The Fleet Admiral: custom scope, quoted after discovery
- The Master Chief Diver (Shopify): $17,500
Your price is set in the proposal before you sign. No hidden fees.
Do you offer e-commerce web design for Fort Worth businesses?
Yes, through The Master Chief Diver, a custom Shopify build for businesses serious about selling online. Product pages, checkout, and trust signals are designed to reduce friction and drive sales. The package is $17,500.
