it’s what we love

Web Development

what we do

the long and the short of it

We build websites, content management systems, games and online applications from our offices in Newcastle and Nantwich Cheshire.

It’s our philosophy that no matter how clever the concept, it’s nothing without great delivery and that’s where we excel. From a small 2 page brochure site to a massive e-commerce site, our developers are experienced in delivering content rich, accessible, search engine friendly websites, hosted on our dedicated servers and linked into either our support service or managed through our proprietary Content Management System.

Need a game? We do them too. Be it a viral game to help launch a new initiative, or a branded game to assist with customer retention.

Need an application to help automate daily processes? We have built complex sales promotion management systems, project management systems for a research agency, and a database API for the Living Room Group.

“The system is a delight, does everything we specified”
Brigitte Barrett – Launchpad Research

“The game has been a real success with students AND lecturers!”
Julie Smith – Gateshead College

  • Websites

    Websites are our bread and butter - we design them, build them and host them.

    From creating a simple 4 page brochure site to a fully integrated database driven e-commerce site, we can do it all. All our websites meet WAI W3C recommendations are fully search engine optimised and technically excellent.

    But above all we remember the whole point of a website - that it has, in the end, to support your business. Be that by demonstrating your brand, showing your company ethos, or selling loads of products, at the end of the day the website is there for a reason.

    To talk to us about how we can develop your existing website, create a new one or review your entire digital marketing strategy, contact us.

  • CMS

    A Content Management System (CMS), at a basic level, allows you to access a website and make changes to it in a simple, user-friendly environment, so you don’t need a degree in quantum web development!

    For more complex websites such as e-commerce or database driven sites, the CMS allows you to manage every facet of the site, from products, pricing, delivery, imagery, etc.

    Mobious have developed our own proprietary CMS which gives all our web clients a simple, clean interface. So if you’re looking for a CMS platform to help you run your existing website, or you want a whole new website that you can self-manage then get in touch. We’d love to hear from you!

  • Games

    We all love a good game don’t we? Probably one of the reasons why they are so successful when used in digital marketing. They keep people on site, generate viral spread and enhance your brand - when done well.

    You can get it horribly wrong, you really can. But fear not, work with Mobious on developing your next game, and you can sit back and relax, ’cos we really know how to make a game work for you.

    Super Active Challenge was developed when NewcastleGateshead Initiative needed to engage the over 30’s in the North East with a message surrounding all the great things you can do in the region to be fit and active. Our solution was simple - a retro 1980’s style athletics game. Now doesn’t that take you back to your childhood sitting in front of the Commodore 64?

    One of our favourite games, Rocket Ranger, was created for Gateshead College to support the recruitment campaign we developed. The theme ‘How Far Will You Go’ challenged 16-19 year olds to believe in their potential to be, whoever they wanted to be. The game drew on that theme by letting them see how far they could fire a funky alien out of a cannon and across an alien planet, tenuous link we know, but it was a great game and with over a million plays it seems the target audience liked it too.

    Sometimes you have to practice what you preach, so in Christmas 2007, we created Santa Sumo, our own online game, linked into a nifty little viral which saw our MDs Iain and Martin running through Newcastle city centre dressed as Sumo Wrestlers!

    So if you need an online game get in touch, and we’ll see how we can play together.

  • Apps

    Apps, or applications, are great. There are apps for iPhone, various Android platforms, and Blackberry amongst others. And then there are online or ‘web apps’ - we’ve built some pretty neat apps over the years, all of which sit within sites and allow people to do things more easily.

    Take Coors Light for example. When they needed an online outlet finder, we built an application that allowed them to create an outlet finder for various sectors easily and with minimum time. So then Pitcher and Piano wanted one - done! Mitchell and Butlers needed one, done - you get the picture?

    Lloyds TSB autolease needed an online calculator to allow customers to calculate whole life costs, no problem. Oh, and Sage needed an application to allow members of their Accountant’s Club to create and print off personalised marketing collateral from a secure web environment, so we built that too.

    If you need any kind of app we can help advise and build it for any use - just give us a call to find out how.
