Built by Mountain Folks,For Mountain Folks
We understand the challenges of running a business in rural Appalachia because we live here too.
Our Story
How HollerBuilt came to be
It started with a simple observation: My neighbor, who runs a produce stand, was losing customers because her Facebook page showed last year's hours. She didn't have internet at home, and updating her page meant a 30-minute drive to town just to use the library WiFi.
That's when it hit me - why should updating a website require internet when a simple phone call doesn't? Why should mountain businesses struggle with technology when they're already working dawn to dusk?
HollerBuilt was born from that realization. We built a system that lets you update your website the same way you'd leave a voicemail - just call and talk. No apps, no passwords to remember, no computer needed.
Today, we serve hundreds of farms, diners, craft shops, and small businesses across West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina. Each one can update their website in less time than it takes to brew a pot of coffee.
"Every business deserves a professional website, regardless of their internet situation or tech skills."
Our Mission
Bridging the digital divide, one phone call at a time
We believe that limited internet access shouldn't limit business success. Our mission is to provide simple, accessible website management for rural businesses throughout Appalachia.
Community First
We're not just a service provider - we're your neighbors. We understand harvest seasons, tourist seasons, and deer season.
Accessibility
Technology should work for everyone. If you can make a phone call, you can update your website.
Trust & Security
Your website is protected with bank-level security, but accessed as simply as calling a friend.
Local Focus
We're based in West Virginia and proud of it. We serve our region with local phone numbers and support.
