AppNet is a first-class web design and hosting service. They provided excellent design, build and hosting services. Throughout the process, they were very profession, knowledgeable, timely, communitive, patient, and willing to adjust to our busy schedule. It was a pure please to work with and continue working with the AppNet staff now and into the future. Thanks so much for all that your company does and will continue to do! All the best!
BEWARE- I really liked this company. They did a great job building my website and I was a client for 10 years. At the end of last year they offered a security program through the company you could opt into for an extra fee. I chose not to opt in and continue forward. Well they decided to make it mandatory this year. My yearly hosting fee jumped from $300 a year, to $1800 a year- no exceptions. I called to voice my concerns and grievances- but they didn’t care. Basically said “this is the way it is going forward and if you choose not to pay you either need to have your website moved to a different host, or we will shut it down”. Then they tried to deter me from moving by saying that all providers are currently jumping in price like this (NOT TRUE). I ended up migrating my website to Wordpress (which is the program they used to build my site). I’m now paying less than I originally was to host, AND less for a custom email than it was through Appnet. I feel like I had no value as a customer who’s been with the company for 10 years. my site is low maintenance site and I simply didn’t need the “$1800 worth of value” they were trying to force me to pay.
Thank you for your feedback and for trusting Appnet with your website over the past 10 years. We genuinely appreciate the opportunity we had to work with you, and we're glad to hear you were happy with the website we built.
We certainly understand that a significant pricing change can be frustrating, especially after many years on a legacy hosting plan.
One point we'd like to clarify is that the new service was not simply a price increase for the same hosting. Over the last decade, the cybersecurity landscape has changed dramatically. The plan we introduced is a fully managed website care program that includes proactive security monitoring, malware protection, WordPress core and plugin updates, SSL and domain management, performance monitoring, monthly maintenance, ongoing technical support, and website edits. It was designed to address the increasing security and maintenance demands of modern WordPress websites.
We also recognize that not every website owner needs-or wants-that level of managed service. Rather than continuing to offer multiple hosting models, we made the business decision to standardize on a single managed platform. While that wasn't the right fit for every client, we understood some customers would prefer to move to a more basic hosting provider, and we fully supported those transitions by providing website backups and assisting where appropriate.
We're sorry to lose you as a client and wish you nothing but success with your website moving forward. Thank you again for your many years of business.

I can't say enough positive praises to the entire team at Appnet. Starting from the person who reached out to me in the very beginning to the team that put my web page together. Every one of them was so responsive and helpful. They created a beautiful website for our new business venture. My husband and I are so grateful to all of them. Thank you so much. Antoinette McDaniel

AppNet's team performed expeditiously and effectively while completing our recent website project. This five-star review comes from years of our own experience in building and operating websites with our multiple corporations and various global business interests over three decades. The site was completed on time and at the price originally quoted. The artwork and editing was outstanding and their managing services prove to be invaluable to efficient operations. Additionally, their knowledge of modern techniques and methods, especially their skills with artificial intelligence and technology is priceless. Our group would recommend AppNet Studio to anyone wanting to improve their concept and pursue advanced marketing.
Thank you for the kind words, Don! You were a pleasure to work with and we look forward to a long, productive relationship.

After having trouble finding someone to help us bring the vision for our website to life, my partner and I found AppNet and immediately felt at ease.
Colin was great at making us feel heard and ensuring he knew what we were looking for. Then Lisa and Kenny were the rockstars that brought it to life. No matter what we needed, they were understanding and did their best to communicate and make it happen.
Everything wound up being EXACTLY what we were looking for, in a totally reasonable time frame and for a very fair price.
Professional all the way around, and I wouldn't hesitate to use AppNet again or recommend them to anyone needing web design services!
Thank you for the thoughtful review-we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
It means a lot to hear that you felt comfortable and understood throughout the process. That’s always the goal from day one.
We’re especially happy that everything came together exactly how you envisioned it-and on a timeline and budget that made sense for you.
Thanks again for trusting Appnet with your project. We’re here whenever you need us moving forward!
Kia2026.04.07
Being new to building a new e-comm store, I started off with GoDaddy. I've learned GoDaddy was ripping and scamming me off stage after stage. I finally had enough and decided to do my research to look for a new web developer company to rebuild my website. By then, I had a lot of trust issues and also loss a whole lot of money.
I requested a lot of quotes from local to other domestic companies to rebuild my website. Mike Dobbs reached out, made a promise to solve the problems I have with GoDaddy, and took care of me. His team was able to build me a user-friendly website within a week and educated me on things that were supposed to be FREE while GoDaddy was charging me in thousands (SEO, forcing me to buy all the domain names they owned that were un-necessary, Google Analytics, etc).
I am grateful for the AppNet New Media Studio team - especially grateful for Lisa and Lauren. They were wonderful, professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. Their customer service made the whole process smooth and stress‑free.
If you are a new entrepreneur and need a new trusted web developer company, reach out to this team. They to me were the most trusted web developer company I've encountered.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Kia - we truly appreciate it!
We understand how overwhelming it can be when building an e-commerce presence for the first time, especially after running into unexpected costs and limitations elsewhere. Our goal is always to provide clarity, transparency, and a straightforward path forward so you can focus on growing your business with confidence.
We’re glad to hear that Mike and the team were able to step in, resolve the issues, and deliver a user-friendly website within a quick turnaround. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Lisa and Lauren as well -they’ll really appreciate the recognition.
Thank you again for trusting Appnet New Media Studio. We’re excited to continue supporting your business as it grows.

Appnet made the decision-making process to hire a web firm clear and straightforward. Looking forward to the design & production stage of my web site.
An honest consult gets 5 stars. Ian was a pleasure to speak to and we feel lucky to have found him. We managed to figure out the issue over the phone and wished each other well. We'll be calling them back when we're ready to take the site to the next level, but for now, it's good to know there's a place like this out there. They are States-based and in business a long time.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad Ian could provide an honest consult and help you identify the next steps. We look forward to working with you whenever you’re ready to take your site to the next level!

Appnet was very responsive to my questions and understood my needs.
I recently had the opportunity to work with Appnet on a website design initiative, and overall, the experience was a strong one.
From the outset, their team demonstrated a clear understanding of how to translate a concept into a functional and visually appealing digital presence. What stood out most was their ability to take broad direction and turn it into a structured, organized framework that could actually be executed. For someone like me—who tends to think in terms of content, messaging, and user experience rather than pure design—that was a meaningful value-add.
Their process was collaborative. They were responsive to feedback, open to iteration, and willing to refine elements until the end product aligned with both the vision and the practical needs of the site. Communication was consistent throughout, which helped keep the project moving without unnecessary delays.
From a technical standpoint, Appnet delivered a clean, professional product that is easy to navigate and scalable for future enhancements. They also showed a good appreciation for usability—ensuring that the site wasn’t just visually strong, but also intuitive for end users.
If I were to offer any constructive feedback, it would be around continuing to push into more strategic guidance on content flow and storytelling. While they executed well on direction provided, there is an opportunity for them to take an even more proactive role in shaping the narrative and user journey.
Overall, I would recommend Appnet to organizations looking for a reliable and capable partner in website design—particularly for projects where collaboration, responsiveness, and solid execution are key priorities.

Ed - thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. We truly appreciate it.
It was a pleasure collaborating with you. Your clarity around messaging and user experience made the process smooth, and we’re glad our team was able to turn your broader vision into a structured, functional framework that brought everything together cohesively.
We also appreciate your feedback on taking an even more proactive role in guiding content flow and the user journey - that’s an area we continue to focus on improving with every project.
Thank you again for trusting Appnet with your website and for recognizing the collaboration, responsiveness, and execution our team strives to deliver. We look forward to supporting you as the site continues to grow and evolve.

After many years of having the same website, in 2025 I noticed my business was slowing down with hardly any new client calls. When I reached out to my website provider, I got the runaround and endured hours and hours of frustrating phone calls trying to figure out the problem. I finally realized I had reached the end of the line when there was no increase in new clients. I began to look at more modern websites in my field of work and saw that there were many bells and whistles that were not offered by my present website.
My wife put in a request on the internet for web design company. We received numerous phone calls and emails offering to build and market a new website. The phone rang off the hook and the email offers poured in, none of which I answered or read. Then one day, it had to be God's intervention, I picked up the phone. It was Appnet! After speaking to Boyd Green for less than 10 minutes, I quickly realized that this was an opportunity for me to ditch the old website and open a new chapter for Here's the Rub Massage Therapy's business.
After working with the Appnet staff since October, 2025, I can truthfully say I haven't regretted one moment of my decision. Our initial tasks were to explain our vision, send Appnet our information and photographs, and make decisions on how the website looked and functioned and to choose the primary color. Callie and the design staff were accommodating and easy to work with. Appnet entered all of our SEOs. Appnet gave us great support during the creation stage enabling us to go live in a month and a half after our initial conversation. Now, updating our information, adding new photographs and new reviews is incredibly easy. No more excruciating hours of phone sessions to try to update our website.
It's been a blessing and a great experience! I highly recommend Appnet for any business. If you want a great website company where you can explain what you want and they can provide that and more, then Appnet is your answer! Appnet knows what you need and is able to give it to you for a reasonable price.
Thanks again, Appnet! I'm very satisfied with the results -- in just four and a half months, Appnet has infused new life into my business, which has grown substantially. Now new clients can find Here's the Rub Massage Therapy on Google!
First, thank you for trusting Appnet New Media Studio with such an important transition for Here’s the Rub Massage Therapy. We know how frustrating it can be to feel stuck with an outdated website - especially when your business depends on new client calls - and we’re honored you gave us the opportunity to help turn that around.
It was a pleasure working with you and your wife from day one. Once we understood your vision, our goal was simple: build a modern, easy-to-manage website that reflects the quality of your services and actually helps new clients find you on Google. Hearing that you were able to go live quickly, update content with ease, and see real growth in just a few months is exactly why our team does what we do.
Boyd, Callie, and our entire in-house team truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation. Seeing your business gain new visibility and momentum is the best outcome we could hope for.
Thank you again for the trust - and we’re excited to continue supporting your growth for years to come!

We have been working with Appnet for a very long time. They are a terrific partner with staff members that are very knowledgeable and responsive. Our recent upgrades were handled seamlessly. Thank you!
Huge shout out to Appnet Studios for making me a beautiful & functional website. Especially Boyd for always making a masterpiece out of my ideas. And Lisa for all the continued support as well.
Thank you sir! YOU are appreciated! Not only as a client but as a good human being. Cheers to many more successful years!
Adé Heyliger2025.11.27
Lisa was amazing and a pleasure to work with! She understood exactly what we had in mind, made excellent suggestions, and was extremely responsive. We were thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend her!
Appnet has been great for our company website. Whenever I send a request for changes or additions needed to our website it gets done relatively quick with great results. Trenton, the editor for Appnet, has been quick to respond to both tickets and emails. Highly recommend using Appnet if your website needs work or monitoring!
