Recognised by Wix: How Our Web Team Earned Studio Expert Status

When we came into work on Tuesday morning, we had an unexpected yet intriguing email waiting in our inbox. Wix had recognised our team at Monday Media as one of the top creators in the world, awarding us a place in their prestigious Wix Studio League.

No applications. No forms. Just our work doing the talking.

Here is how we got here, why it matters, and the people who made it happen.

Monday Media - Wix Studio Certified.

How We Got Here: Creative Grit and Always Leveling Up

We have been building websites that do not just look good, they work hard. For five years, Steve Hargreaves has led our web team with a mix of obsessive attention to detail and a forward-thinking mindset that keeps us one step ahead.

Every year, we challenge ourselves to raise the bar. Whether it is incorporating 3D interactivity through Spline, using smart tools like Hana to personalise user journeys, or jumping head first into the evolving feature set of Wix Studio, we are always experimenting, refining, and improving.

It is that mindset that caught Wix's attention. As they put it, they scout millions of creators each year and select those showing standout quality, creativity and professionalism. We did not apply. We did not need to. They saw what we were doing and said, yep, this team belongs in the League.

A Shoutout to Yael (and the Whole Wix Crew)

If there is someone we have been lucky to have in our corner, it is Yael from Wix. Over the past couple of years, she has been our go-to for all things Wix Studio, jumping on video calls, walking us through new features, and giving us sneak peeks at what is coming next. Her support has kept us ahead of the curve and genuinely connected to the platform we build on every day.

We do not take that kind of partnership for granted. So thank you, Yael, and a big thanks to the entire Wix team. This recognition means a lot, and it is just as much about the relationship we have built with you as it is about the websites we have crafted.

A Quiet Win That Speaks Loudly

This is not the kind of recognition you chase with pitches or awards submissions. It is something you earn by showing up, doing good work, and staying true to your values.

Steve leads by example. He sweats the small stuff, pushes for polish, and helps the rest of us do the same. That is what shapes our process, and it is why our clients walk away with websites that genuinely stand out.

Being named a Wix Studio Expert is a quiet win. But it carries weight. It shows that what we build here in Perth can stand shoulder to shoulder with the best in the world. That is a pretty good feeling.

A Word from Paul

"We did not expect this at all! It is such an honour to be recognised by a platform we use literally everyday. Massive shoutout to Steve for leading our web game, and to the whole team for the care and craft you bring to every project. I cannot thank you enough."

— Paul Dean, Founder & Creative Director

Wrapping Up: What This Means for Monday Media

This recognition from Wix is more than a shiny badge, it is a sign we are doing things right. It is validation for the long hours, the late-night problem-solving, and the obsession with doing great work for our clients.

It means we get access to early features, better support, and more resources. But more than that, it means we get to bring even more value to the businesses we work with.

We are proud of this moment. And we are excited for what is next.

If your website could use a rethink, or you just want to work with a team that truly gives a damn, we would love to chat.
