Once a month, the figures land in a summary that splits Athlone from Mullingar, so you can see which town is pulling its weight. Enquiries sit at the top, and the channel and search behind each one come beneath them. Ranking screenshots and impression counts stay in our working notes. We do not promise a result in advance, because the figure depends on your trade, what the businesses around you are doing and how your listing and site look at the start. Strong months and weak months are reported in the same plain way, and the next plan is built from whichever it turns out to be.
A hotel in Athlone or a solicitor in Mullingar that an assistant mentions tends to be the one with a full listing, a page that explains the service clearly and recent reviews backing up what it claims. Those are the ingredients that bring a business up in search too. In our view, that makes winning a search and giving an assistant something to quote a single piece of work, which we carry out in one pass.
The firm was founded in 2013, and the head office is in County Louth. Our Google Partner standing sits inside the top 3 per cent of Google Partners across Ireland. Our Shopify Partner status is relevant for Westmeath businesses trading through a Shopify store. Those facts can be checked, and we would rather you check them than take our word for anything.
Monthly fees for management start at €450, plus VAT. Where you land within that range turns on how competitive your trade is locally and how much groundwork the site needs first, and we confirm the figure only once we have seen both.
The Google Ads audit we offer is €295 plus VAT. It suits a Westmeath business that already runs Google ads and wants a straight answer on whether they are earning their keep, and the Google Ads audit page gives the detail.

Let’s plan your next moveWe recently worked with Bubblehub on building our new custom e-commerce website and are delighted with the result.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Yes. The address on this page is where we meet people in Westmeath, 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.
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.
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.
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.
