Neon Moth (formerly ThirdSide)
Neon Moth helps organizations turn their website into a strategic asset. They partner with growing businesses, nonprofits, government entities, and established organizations that need clarity, credibility, and long-term results from their online presence.
Neon Moth is a web design and digital agency with offices in Champaign, Illinois and Portland, Oregon. Formerly known as ThirdSide, the agency has rebranded to reflect a focus on helping organizations stand out online. They position themselves as a strategic partner rather than a quick-build shop, emphasizing that a website should be a long-term asset, not just a template.
The agency's core offering is custom WordPress development paired with a thorough strategy phase. They take time to understand audience, messaging, and how the website fits into broader marketing and operations. This upfront work helps clients avoid costly mistakes and ensures every design and technical decision serves a purpose. Beyond launch, Neon Moth provides ongoing management, hosting, security monitoring, and support, which many clients rely on for years.
Neon Moth has worked with over 300 clients, including recognizable names like Disney and the University of Illinois. They have particular strength in regulated industries, public institutions, and mission-driven organizations where trust and compliance are critical. Their services span branding, content strategy, SEO, graphic design, UX design, and website maintenance, making them a versatile partner for organizations that need a cohesive online presence.
Pricing starts at $5,000 per project, with typical engagements lasting 3-6 months. This positions them as a mid-range option suitable for small to mid-sized businesses and nonprofits. The small team size (1-9 employees) means clients get direct attention from experienced professionals, but it may limit capacity for very large or fast-moving enterprise projects.
Neon Moth is best for organizations that want a thoughtful, custom website built on WordPress, with ongoing support to keep it secure and effective. They are a strong fit for nonprofits, government agencies, and businesses in regulated fields that need a partner who communicates in plain language and understands stakeholder collaboration.
Overall, Neon Moth offers a reliable, strategy-driven alternative to template-based website builders. Their focus on long-term relationships and post-launch support sets them apart from agencies that hand off a site and disappear. For organizations that value clarity, credibility, and a website that works as hard as they do, Neon Moth is a solid choice.
