Barnesville Web Designer Marks 15 Years
It’s hard to believe it’s been that long, but today marks a decade and a half of 10T Web Design. Over that time, I’ve designed websites for local small businesses, non-profit organizations, and government agencies. I’ve developed web apps for national brands and built a full inventory management system for an online retailer.
From jumping in the deep end to being on top of the world (and everything in between), it’s been quite the adventure.
To every client who trusted me to bring their vision to life, I can’t thank you enough for helping make the dream of running a successful business a reality. Here’s to (at least) 15 more years!
Editor’s Note: 10T owner Brock Rogers is responsible for the Barnesville Area News website! Thank you, Brock, for your involvement in BAN efforts and being actively involved in the Barnesville community.

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” – Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu
The time has arrived for the moth to transform into a butterfly. This week, a few weeks after the third anniversary of the end of our beloved Barnesville Enterprise, the weekly Facebook and email posts featuring local news migrate over to its own website. The process will obviously take a little time as we “find our sea legs.” Thank you, in advance, for your patience.
Two important steps in that process have taken place this fall. First, we formed a volunteer-driven organization – Barnesville Area News Company – and this past week we were officially recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a certified 501c3 nonprofit.
Special kudos are extended to Bill Knox, CPA, and his talented staff for their expert pro bono work for shepherding the application through the IRS!
While we will continue to be an effort driven primarily by volunteer efforts, we’re pleased to share with you our first-year goals and aspirations.
2024-2025 Program and Financial Goal
$25,000 will allow us to hire two part-time contract employees to attend and cover public meetings, write features and cover sports. It will also cover associated administrative costs, website hosting fees, etc.
