Howdy, folks. I'm Bobby Robinson.

Bobby Robinson is the Principal and Founder of Black Anchor Design. He handles the strategy, design, build, and SEO on every project.

He started in a graphic design shop in 1995 and has spent the 31 years since in design, branding, and web strategy. Along the way, he's worked with national brands including Disney, Coca-Cola, Nokia, DreamWorks, and the Dallas Mavericks.

He founded Black Anchor Design in Fort Worth in 2009 and has run it full-time since 2015. He builds custom websites for Texas companies in critical infrastructure, commercial trades, premium development, and aerospace and defense contracting. These are the complex projects that don't fit a template. He's a veteran, a 2023 graduate of the Dallas Mavericks Cohort, and a recipient of a U.S. Senate Certificate of Commendation for accessibility advocacy.

He grew up a military brat with deep roots in Parker County. He'll tell you that's why he works the way he does: show up, do the job right, and see it through.

As a weekend side business in 2009. At the time, Bobby was single, raising two daughters full-time, and working a corporate marketing job during the week. Nights and weekends went to client work. By 2015 the side business had outgrown the day job, and he went all in.

To give the companies that build Texas the kind of web strategy usually reserved for firms ten times their size.

Most contractors and suppliers run websites built from templates by people who've never set foot on a job site. Bobby's work exists to fix that. Every project starts with strategy, not a layout. Who are the buyers? What do they need to see before they call? How does the site have to be built to earn that call? Then he builds it himself, so nothing gets lost between the plan and the finished site.

The rest of the mission is how the work gets done. Clients own their domains and files from day one. Accessibility is built in, not bolted on. Pricing is on the website. And when something isn't a good idea, Bobby says so before the client pays for it.

It starts with a free 30-minute Zoom call to look at the problem and find the gaps. If it's a fit, you get an estimate. Once you approve it, you move into an onboarding session with Bobby, then design, testing, and launch. You'll deal with Bobby at every stage, and the final payment isn't due until seven days before launch.

Book a free 30-minute Zoom call. It's the fastest way to get a real conversation on the calendar.

You can also email hello@blackanchordesign.com or call (817) 818-7708 during business hours: Monday through Wednesday, 9 to 5; Thursday and Friday, 10 to 3; closed weekends and federal holidays.

In-person meetings at 2833 Crockett St., Suite 502, in Fort Worth's Cultural District can be arranged by appointment for a fee.

Existing clients with a maintenance or update request should use the support ticket system instead of email. That keeps every request tracked against your plan's response window.

Texas companies that build, maintain, and supply what others depend on. That covers four areas:

• Critical infrastructure: water and wastewater, electrical T&D, heavy civil, site work, and roads and bridges.
• Commercial trades: MEP, roofing, building envelope, concrete, and specialty subcontractors.
• Premium development: custom homes, land and ranch, luxury communities, and mixed-use.
• Aerospace and defense contracting: suppliers, machining and fabrication, drones, and MRO.

Within those, Bobby gravitates toward the projects that don't fit a template: historic restorations, schools, municipal facilities, civic buildings, sports facilities, and churches. When the work is outside the standard playbook, the website has to be too.

He also takes on select service and professional businesses where the buyer does their homework before calling, and the site has to hold up to it.

If you're in construction, the trades, or infrastructure, almost certainly. That's been the core of Black Anchor's client base since 2009. The work section shows the range: roofing and storm restoration, utility construction, landscape architecture, real estate development, and the contractors behind public projects.

If you're outside that world, the honest answer is maybe not, and it may not matter. Industry vocabulary he can learn fast. Knowing how a specific buyer makes a specific decision took decades. On the first call, he'll tell you plainly whether he's the right fit or point you somewhere better.

The one he'd mention first isn't a design award. In 2021, Black Anchor Design received a United States Senate Certificate of Commendation from the office of Senator Ted Cruz for its commitment to accessibility in design. That's work that makes websites usable for people with disabilities, not just people with perfect vision and a mouse.

On the industry side, Black Anchor has been named to IBTimes' 2025 Best Web Design Companies in Fort Worth, ranks on Clutch's Top Design Agencies in Fort Worth, and carries Expertise.com's 2025 designations for Best Web Designer, Best Web Developer, and Best Digital Marketing Agency. Earlier recognition includes the 2018 Lux Designer Awards, a Best of 2019 Web Design Agency award, DesignRush rankings across web design, branding, and development, and a 2023 Investopedia Top Advertising Agency listing. Bobby is also a 2023 graduate of the Dallas Mavericks Cohort.

Awards are a decent signal that someone knows the craft. The better signal is the work on this site and the clients who'll take your call about it.
