(01) Why it matters

Your website needs to explain the offer and help people take the next step. We plan the content, navigation and functionality around the tasks visitors need to complete.

Fig. 01 - Built for the pace of the web.

Google uses the mobile version of a page for indexing and ranking. We plan content and navigation for people using a phone, then test the layout across screen sizes.

Our projects include company websites, online stores, portals and browser-based tools. The brief defines the editing needs, integrations, hosting requirements and checks needed before launch.

Faster load times
Usable navigation
Search foundations
Clear enquiry routes

(02) Mobile first

Design for mobile.
Adapt to desktop.

Switch screens and watch the same site reflow. Nothing shrinks, everything adapts.

Where most of your traffic arrives. We design here first: fast, thumb-friendly and focused on one clear next step.

Faster mobile page loading
Touch-first navigation
Adaptive layouts that reflow
Richer interactions on a fast base

Red and white light trails streaking through the dark

Good development turns slow into fast, clunky into clean and hidden into found.

Good development works like a lens.
It brings your business into focus.

Case study / Midstream Shopping

From a new identity to online discovery.

FGX's work brought together a rebrand, website rebuild, domain change and organic search optimisation. The Midstream Shopping case study reports 1,827 Google Web search clicks to the new domain in September 2026.

This complete-month total measures recorded search activity. It does not isolate the impact of the redesign or establish store visits, tenant enquiries or sales.
