Mountain Inn Dayton, TN
A family-owned motel leaving a national franchise needed its own brand and a way to take reservations directly.
Web design · Dayton, TN
Websites for Dayton and Rhea County businesses.
I have designed and built sites for a motel, a sports bar, a detailer, a stone quarry, and a sheriff’s campaign in and around Dayton. Each one is built so a customer on a phone can call, get directions, or ask for a quote in one tap.
Dayton
Built for how Dayton customers search.
In a town the size of Dayton, most people who look you up already have a reason to: they drove past, a friend mentioned you, or they need a service today. They are usually on a phone. What they want is your hours, your prices or menu, your number, and directions.
The Dayton sites in my portfolio put those answers on the first screen. Referees shows whether it is open today and how to call in a pickup order. Gsudz lists starting prices by vehicle size. Mountain Inn lists room rates and lets travelers request a stay without calling.
I am based in Chattanooga, about 45 minutes south, and work with Dayton businesses by phone, video, and a shared preview link.

Deer Creek Stone Graysville, TN

Local details that matter
What a Rhea County business site should cover.
Your service area, in words
“Dayton, Spring City, and Rhea County” written on the page tells customers and search engines where you work. Gsudz states a 35-mile radius in text, not just on a map.
Visitors from out of town
Dayton gets travelers, lake visitors, and people passing through. Mountain Inn describes its distance to Chattanooga, Knoxville, Chickamauga Lake, and Pocket Wilderness so visitors can place it.
More than a Facebook page
Social posts scroll away. A website keeps your menu, prices, and hours at one address you control, and it previews cleanly when shared on Facebook.
Matching your Google listing
Your hours, phone, and address should match your Google Business Profile exactly. I check that before launch.
From local clients
Exactly what we needed. Clean design, clear pricing, and an easy way for customers to reach us.
Badass. To the point — and it’s already driving real conversions.
How it works
From first call to launch.
- A short call. Phone or video. We talk about your customers, what they ask, and what is not working now. You get a fixed quote after.
- Pages planned around actions. Call, book, get directions, ask for a quote: the layout is built around what your customers need to do.
- A private preview link. You watch the site come together and send feedback straight to me.
- Launch and handover. Live on your domain, tested on phones, and the code, domain, and hosting are in your name.
Questions
Asked by Dayton business owners.
Do you only work with businesses in Dayton?
No. Five of my projects are in Rhea County, but I work with businesses across Tennessee and elsewhere, remotely. See East Tennessee projects too.
How much does a website cost?
Websites start at $1,500 and landing pages at $750, as a one-time fee. Most small business sites fall in the $2,250–$3,500 range. You get a fixed quote before any work starts. Full pricing.
How long does it take?
A typical small business site takes 2–4 weeks. The biggest factor is how quickly photos, details, and feedback come back.
Will I own the site?
Yes. The code, the domain, and the hosting account are in your name.
Can you guarantee I will rank first on Google?
No one can honestly promise that. I build the foundations search engines look for (clear pages, accurate details, fast loading) and help you set up Search Console so you can see how people find you.
