Frankfort & Franklin County
Web design for Frankfort businesses, from Frankfort.
I'm Kevin Barnett. Level Up Technologies is based here in Frankfort — same town, same area code, and I'll come to your shop if that's easier than a Zoom call.
Websites are $499 to build, then $179/month. No contract, cancel any time.
Why local matters here
Most of the companies advertising "web design Frankfort KY" aren't in Frankfort.
Search that phrase and you'll get agencies in Louisville, Lexington, out-of-state marketing shops, and a few national outfits that spin up a page for every city in America. They can build you a fine website. What they can't do is drive to Wilkinson Boulevard when your point-of-sale drops offline.
Frankfort runs on state government schedules, downtown foot traffic, the distillery visitors coming through Buffalo Trace and Castle & Key, and a deep bench of trades and contractors serving Franklin County. Those are different businesses with different customers, and the website should reflect that — a contractor needs a phone that rings, not a blog.

What I do
Websites, and the tech around them.
Websites that convert
Clean, fast, built mobile-first. Services, photos, and a quote form that emails you the moment someone fills it out.
Google Business Profile
Claiming, verifying, categories, services, photos — the work that decides whether you show up on the map at all.
Reviews
A system for asking real customers after a finished job. No fake reviews, no filtering out unhappy ones.
On-site tech work
Networking, cabling cleanup, Starlink installs, backup power, smart devices. Real work at your location, not just pixels.
On ranking, I'll be straight with you: nobody can promise you the top spot, and anyone who does is selling something. What I can do is the work that actually moves it — accurate listings, fast pages, real reviews, content that matches what people search.

No contract, and you can cancel any time. While you are on the plan I host the site for you. Cancel inside the first 12 months and you can either walk away or buy the site outright for $900 and take it with you. After 12 months on the plan it is yours free and clear, at no extra cost.
Quoted separately at $125/hour: online stores, booking or scheduling systems, client logins and portals, anything database-backed, and moving an existing site off Wix, Squarespace or WordPress. Your domain registration and any third-party services are billed separately.
Already have a website? Get Found is $79/month on its own: your Google profile claimed and maintained, junk listings chased down, a review system set up and kept running, and the same monthly note. No setup fee, no contract, cancel any time.
Not sure which you need? The Walkthrough is $250. I go through your Google profile, your website and your listings and write down what is actually costing you money. Start any plan within 30 days and the $250 comes off in full.
Questions
The things people ask first.
What happens to the site if I cancel?
Inside the first 12 months you can walk away owing nothing further, or buy the site outright for $900 and take it with you. After 12 months on the plan it is yours free and clear at no extra cost. There is no contract holding you in either way.
Who owns the domain and my content?
You do. You buy and own your domain, and your photos and words stay yours. While you are on the plan I host and maintain the site, which is what the monthly covers.
I already have a website. Can you fix it instead?
Sometimes yes, sometimes a rebuild is cheaper than untangling it. Tell me what platform it's on and I'll tell you honestly which one I'd do.
Will you take over my Facebook page?
No — I don't do social media management. I'll connect your existing Facebook to the new site so the two work together.
How long does it take?
For a straightforward five-page site, usually a couple of weeks. The slowest part is almost always getting photos and content from you, so gather those early.
