Knoxville, Tennessee
Solid groundwork for your online presence.
We build clear, fast websites and take care of the local marketing basics for Knoxville small businesses, so customers can find you, trust you, and reach you.
What we do
Most local businesses do not need anything fancy. They need the basics done well and kept working. That is the groundwork.
New sites and rebuilds
Clean, mobile-friendly sites that load quickly, say plainly what you do, and make it easy to call, book, or visit. Built to be maintained, not abandoned.
Be easy to find
Google Business Profile cleanup, accurate hours and contact details, and on-page basics so people searching in Knoxville can find the right business.
Simple local ads
Small, focused ad campaigns with a clear goal and a budget you set.
Broken or outdated sites
Dead links, expired security certificates, pages that do not work on a phone, a domain that stopped pointing to your site. We find the problem and fix it.
How it works
A plain process with no surprises.
Free site check
Tell us about your business. We look at your current site and online listings and tell you honestly what is working and what is not.
Clear proposal
You get a written scope and price before any work begins. Payment is by card or ACH.
Build and review
We build it, you review it, and we revise until it is right.
Launch and support
We launch the site and hand over what you need to run it.
Local, and accountable
Knoxville Digital Groundwork is a Knoxville-based web and marketing practice run by Zachary Hileman. You work directly with the person building your site, not an account manager.
We focus on small, local businesses and are upfront about what will and will not help. If your current site is fine, we will tell you so.
Let's talk about your site
Send a quick note with your business name and website, and we will reply with a free site check.
