Cork firms that want a steadier flow of enquiries can call on Bubblehub Media, which is the digital marketing agency for Cork businesses, working from the city and Douglas out to Midleton, Bandon and Skibbereen. In a county this size, a search for a restaurant, a solicitor or an electrician is answered by whichever few names Google puts on the map, and it is worth knowing what those names have done. If your paid clicks cost money without enquiries, we start with the landing page and the offer sitting behind it.

If we don’t double your qualified leads within 90 days, we work for free until we do.

  1. What we do for Cork businesses

    • Search is the long game in Cork, built from a dedicated page for every trade you take on, a Google Business Profile with the full list of services, and reviews asked for at the right moment. It compounds over months, which is why it pays best for a business with steady work across the county.
    • Paid advertising can bring results quickly, but only when the budget is aimed at buyers rather than browsers. We build campaigns around the searches a Douglas or Ballincollig customer makes when they are ready to book, and we cut the rest.
    • Websites have to work hard in Cork, because a visitor comparing three firms gives each one only a few seconds. Fast pages, plain headings and one clear call to action keep you in the comparison.
    • Social media pays for restaurants, bars and hairdressers, where a good photograph can decide a booking. For a physiotherapist or a firm of accountants it matters much less, and we will say so before you spend.
    • Email gives past clients a reason to come back, with a short note after each job and a reminder when the next service falls due. For solicitors and accountants, a well-timed reminder tends to matter more than any offer.
  2. How we report

    Every report counts enquiries and sets impressions aside, split across channels and searches, so you can tell which campaign produced each call or form. Cork is a large market and a lot of activity looks like progress, so the report keeps to what arrived in the inbox and on the phone. It does not promise a result for any month.

  3. Search and AI answers

    AI answers are built out of the same listings and pages that search relies on. That is our view, and it is how we build. For a Cork restaurant or electrician, the page that wins a Douglas search is often the page an AI answer quotes from, so the two get built together. Naming Midleton, Bandon and Carrigaline on the pages that matter is part of that work.

  4. Why Cork businesses choose us

    Since 2013 the firm has worked from a head office in County Louth. Inside the Google Partner group in Ireland, we hold a place in the top 3 per cent. We also carry Shopify Partner status.

  5. What it costs

    Monthly management for a Cork firm costs from €450 plus VAT. Cork covers a lot of ground, so the figure depends on whether you need one town, the city or the full county, and on how many channels you run.

    The Google Ads audit suits a Cork firm that already pays for clicks and wants to know why they are not turning into enquiries. It costs €295 plus VAT. What the audit includes.

  6. Talk to us about Cork

    The phone goes quiet on a Monday and my ads cost more than they bring in, and I would like a straight account of why. I want to know who is taking the calls from Douglas and Carrigaline, and what would have to change for my name to be one of them. Show me the searches my Cork business is missing

Good work builds trust. In their words.

We've been using Sam and Dave at Bubble Hub for a few years now after switching from a previous provider who didn't even notice when a few of our sites got hacked.

Delighted we went with Bubblehub. From the first chat, you could tell they knew their stuff, no sales pitch, just honest advice.

Frank Clark Google review

The guys in Bubblehub are a great team to work with. They set up our website and are so reliable in keeping it up to date.

Frequently asked.

What does a digital marketing agency actually do?

It depends who you ask, which is half the problem. For us it is five things under one roof: SEO, Google Ads and paid media, web design and development, social media and email marketing. Developers, designers, writers, videographers and drone pilots are all in the team, so the work is not passed out to someone else.

Where should we start?

With whatever is costing you most right now. If people are already searching for what you sell and cannot find you, that is SEO. If you need enquiries this month, that is paid media. If the traffic arrives and does not convert, the website is the problem first. We will tell you which one it is before you spend anything.

How long before we see results?

It depends on the channel. Paid campaigns can be live within days, with the first useful data inside a week or two. SEO is months rather than days: early signals in eight to twelve weeks and meaningful movement in four to six. We report against leads and revenue rather than clicks, so you can see which is which.

Do we have to take every service?

No. Most clients start with one thing and add another when the first is working. If a service would not earn its keep for you yet, we will say so rather than sell it.

Do you work with businesses in Cork?

Yes. The address on this page is where we meet people in Cork, and we work with businesses right across Ireland and the United Kingdom. If we are not the right fit for what you need, we will say so and point you somewhere better.

Where should a Cork business spend first?

Whichever channel your customers already use. If people search for what you sell, search comes first. If they buy on how something looks, social and the photography come first. If you need enquiries this month rather than this year, paid advertising comes first and the rest follows. We will tell you which after looking, and we will tell you what to leave alone.

Do I need all of it, or can I start with one thing in Cork?

Start with one, or two at most. Spreading a small budget across four channels buys four campaigns too small to learn anything from. The exception is the website, because everything else sends people to it, and a slow or vague site wastes whatever you spend upstream of it.

Do you work with small businesses in Cork, or only big budgets?

Both, and the honest answer is that below a certain budget some channels are not worth starting. We would rather tell you that on the phone than take the money and report on a campaign that was never going to move. If a one-off piece of work would serve you better than a monthly retainer, we will say so.
