Fifth and Missing is a Barrie-based web design and development studio for businesses that need strong creative, solid technical thinking, and a website that is easy to understand, easy to use, easy to update, and built around real goals.
You get the attention and technical care people expect from a larger agency, but with a simpler process: clear communication, practical advice, and direct access to the people doing the work.
Alongside local service websites, we design and support ecommerce storefronts, product pages, Amazon assets, and online store experiences that need to feel polished and easy to use.
A good business website has to do more than look professional. It needs to explain what you do, make the next step obvious, load quickly, work on mobile, and support the way people actually decide who to contact. We can help.
We map the page flow, key messages, calls to action, and content priorities so the website has a job to do from the beginning.
Your site should not feel like a generic template. We build a visual direction that fits your business, your customers, and the level of trust you need to earn.
Clean front-end structure, responsive layouts, performance basics, forms, analytics, SEO foundations, and the flexibility to grow as your business changes.
Send the link and tell us what feels off. We can help you sort out whether it needs a few targeted updates, a redesign, or a cleaner rebuild.
Most business owners don't want a web project that turns into a maze. They want someone to understand the problem, explain the options, do the work properly, and keep communication clear. That's exactly how we work.
Fewer handoffs means clearer decisions, faster feedback, and less time lost translating the same goals over and over.
We focus on what visitors need to understand, what makes them trust you, and what helps them take the next step.
Need updates, new landing pages, technical support, content improvements, bug fixes, or help with something that stopped working? We can stay involved without making the site harder to manage.
We can handle focused fixes, design and implement new landing pages, update content, assist with SEO, create online ads, provide hosting support, and other practical improvements.
Our work spans healthcare, life sciences, ecommerce, associations, nonprofits, local service businesses, and custom web platforms. The same thinking applies whether the project is local to Barrie or built for a national audience.
“Absolutely top notch design firm. Friendly, professional, responsive. Even with last minute deadlines, the work looks great.”S. Wubbels, client review
Some clients need a full website build. Others already have a site, but the form is not working, pages feel outdated, content needs changing, performance is weak, or the site no longer reflects the business. We can meet the project where it is, whether that means a focused repair, a full website redesign, Shopify or ecommerce support, or help with website hosting and maintenance.
