INTERNET MARKETING SERVICE IN BOONE, NC
Websites, local SEO and Google Ads for a town that refills every August
If you run a shop, restaurant or trade in Boone, your year moves with App State’s calendar and your word of mouth resets every spring. We build the website, manage the Google profile and run the ads so a new audience still finds you. You keep every account.
You get the person doing the work, not an account manager
Most agencies put a salesperson in front of you and a stranger behind the work. Here you talk to Kris every time, and the person you talk to is the person inside your Google profile and your website.
You own everything we build
Your Google profile, your website, your domain, your analytics. All of it lives in your accounts. If we ever part ways you walk away owning the whole thing, with nothing to untangle.
Clear pricing and no contract
One monthly plan covers the ongoing work. Cancel any month. Extra pages are $127.50 each on a plan, the same price for every client, with no upsell on the pages that matter most.
We already know this market
We work Boone and the roads around it every week. You are not paying us to learn where your customers are.
You can reach a human
Call or text (828) 379-1663 and you get an answer, not a ticket number. That is the whole support system and it is the one most owners actually want.
Six ways we put your business in front of buyers in Boone
Each one is sold on its own or bundled into the monthly plan. Start with one, add the rest when it earns its place.
Google Business Profile Management
The listing that decides whether you appear in the Boone map pack. Categories, services, photos, posts, reviews and the weekly upkeep that keeps it ranking.
Local SEO
Pages built for Boone specifically, plus the citations, schema and on-page work that make Google trust you for this town rather than the next one over. Local backlink building is included on the 6 and 12 page plans.
AI Search Optimization
Buyers increasingly ask ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews for a recommendation. This is the work that gets your business named in those answers.
Google Ads Management
For the jobs you need this week rather than next quarter. Tight targeting around Boone, honest reporting, no spend on clicks that were never going to call.
Website Design
Fast, clear sites that load on a phone with one bar and tell a customer what you do in about four seconds. Built in WordPress and owned by you.
Web Hosting
Managed hosting at $20 a month with backups, SSL and updates handled, so nobody is holding your site hostage at renewal time.
The full reviews, nothing trimmed
Both of these are published in full on thekrisrobinson.com, exactly as they were written.
Rated 5 out of 5
“I couldn’t be happier with the website he created for my business. He took the time to understand exactly what I needed, made the whole process super smooth, and delivered a site that looks professional, clean, and perfectly aligned with my brand. Communication was great the entire time, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything turned out right. I highly recommend him if you want quality work and someone who genuinely cares about the final product.”

“Hello, my name is Joel Gray, and I’m the Pastor of the Vision Baptist Church in Millers Creek, NC. The church was interested in getting a new website that would accommodate the ministry in allowing people to obtain information about the church. Chris has accomplished this goal for us through the website he created. Now people can gain knowledge of the church, listen to preaching, and order printed literature (KJV only) such as tracts and booklets free of charge. Thanks to Chris, we’ve already had some orders for printed literature from the website. To God be the Glory, and thank you Chris for the service you provide!”

King Street, the 105 corridor and a town that turns over every August
US 421 is King Street through Boone, US 321 runs as Hardin Street and Blowing Rock Road, and NC 105 heads southwest out of town. Downtown sits along King Street with Depot, Howard, Queen and Rivers feeding into it, and the shopping centers spread out along the 105 and 321 corridors. Where somebody is standing when they search decides which businesses they see, and in a town laid out along three highways that gap is wide.
The business mix here is unlike anywhere else in the region. Restaurants, bars and shops downtown that need photos and recent reviews more than they need copy. Outfitters, rentals and tour operators selling to people who arrived yesterday. Trades, property managers and cleaners serving rentals and second homes. Professional practices serving a population that turns over substantially every August. Each of those is a different search problem and the budget should go where yours actually is.
We have run this business out of Purlear since 2024, and Boone has been in our service area the whole time. That is close enough to drive out when it helps, and the client list stays short on purpose, so the person you talk to is the person doing the work.
The calendar is the campaign
Ski season from December, the summer festival run, the long running outdoor drama, the First Friday crawls and the October weekends. Each one is a demand spike you can be ready for weeks ahead.
Students and parents are two audiences
Move in, family weekends and graduation bring a completely different budget and search pattern than the student population does. Both are worth a plan.
The easy wins here are gone
Boone is the most competitive market we work. What is left is doing the unglamorous work properly every week, which is exactly what the monthly plan is for.
Five ways to reach us from Boone

Tell me what you need in Boone
Takes about a minute. You get a reply with what I would do first and what it would cost, before you ever get a sales call.
Counties and towns we cover
Every one of these has its own page with detail specific to that place. If your town is not on the list, call anyway. We take on clients across the United States.
Straight answers before you pick up the phone
These come up on nearly every first call here. If yours is not on the list, ask it on the phone and you get the same kind of answer.
Boone is competitive. Can a small business actually rank here?
Yes, but not for everything at once. The approach is to win the specific terms your customers use and the map pack inside the radius you actually serve, rather than fighting for broad terms against businesses with ten times the review count. Slower to start and far more durable.
Most of my customers are visitors. Does local SEO still apply?
It applies more. A visitor has no relationship with any business in town and takes whatever the map shows first. That is precisely what this work controls, and for a visitor driven business the profile usually outperforms the website.
What does local SEO cost in Boone?
The monthly plan covers the ongoing Google Business Profile work, the local SEO and the reporting. Websites are a separate one time build, hosting is $20 a month, and extra pages are $127.50 each on a plan. Same price for every client, no contract, no setup fee that turns up later.
How long before I see results in Boone?
Google Business Profile work usually shows movement in the first 30 to 60 days because the profile is the fastest thing to influence. Competitive local rankings take longer, often 3 to 6 months, and it depends on how many businesses here are already doing the work. In a smaller market that is often an advantage, because fewer competitors are doing it properly.
Do you actually work with businesses in Boone?
Yes. Boone is inside the area we cover every week, not a page we built to catch traffic. Call or text (828) 379-1663 and you will be talking to someone who knows the roads your customers drive.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. It is month to month and you can cancel any month. Everything is built in accounts you own, so leaving costs you nothing but the work stopping.
Who owns my Google profile and website?
You do. We work inside your Google account and your hosting and you stay the owner on both. Some agencies create the profile under their own account and use that as leverage later. We do not, and you can verify it yourself at any time.
My business has no storefront in Boone. Can I still rank on Google Maps?
Yes. That is a service area business and it is how most trades, contractors and consultants operate, including us. Your address is hidden and you list the towns you serve instead. Getting that setup wrong is one of the most common reasons a profile underperforms.
My Google profile got suspended. Can you fix it?
Usually. Suspensions almost always trace back to an address problem, keywords stuffed into the business name, or a category that does not match the work. We find the cause, correct it and file the reinstatement. Nobody can guarantee it, but most are recoverable.
Do I need a new website, or can you work with mine?
Either. If your current site loads fast, works on a phone and can be edited, we will keep it and spend your money on visibility instead. If it is slow or you cannot get into it, replacing it is usually cheaper than fighting it.
One conversation. Fifteen minutes. No pitch.
Tell me what you sell and which part of Boone you sell it in. I will tell you what I would do first, what it would cost and how long it should take. If I am not the right fit I will say so on the call.
