Rob Terakedis, Lead Developer at Core Web Crafting

Hey, I’m Rob

I’ve worn many hats in my technology career - from Systems Engineer to Technical Architect in multiple large Enterprise and SaaS companies. I’m uniquely able to bring enterprise-grade practices to small business web development. When I’m not crafting websites, you’ll find me spending time with family or experimenting with new web technologies and AI to better serve my clients.

Why I Started Core Web Crafting

After years of watching my favorite small businesses in Charlotte operate without a website, I was shocked at what design agencies charged — and then more shocked at what they charged for. Long contracts. Hosting you couldn’t leave. A monthly bill that bought permission to stay online rather than work that made the phone ring.

I combined my enterprise-level experience with a genuine interest in helping local operators in Charlotte to create Core Web Crafting.

The goal was never to be the cheapest. You can get a website from an AI builder in four minutes for twenty bucks, and it’ll look fine — it just won’t rank in local search, and there’s nobody to call when it breaks. The goal is to be the one that gets you found, tells you plainly what it costs, and hands you the keys the day you ask for them.

    No Lock-In, Ever

    Your domain is registered in your name. Your site’s files are yours from the day it launches. The buy-out price is published, and it’s free once your build is paid off — no exit interview, no retention offer.

    Getting Found, Not Just Online

    A website nobody finds is a brochure in a drawer. Every build starts with the question of how people will actually reach you — your Google profile, pages for the towns you serve — not just how the homepage looks. And when you want proof it’s working, that’s measured and reported, not guessed at.

While based in Concord, NC, Core Web Crafting works remotely with small businesses nationwide. I particularly enjoy supporting local Charlotte businesses in their digital growth.
