Tipperary-based businesses that want a digital marketing agency with a clear plan can start with Bubblehub Media, which begins from what people in Clonmel, Nenagh and Thurles type when they need what you sell. If those searches go to a competitor, or paid clicks arrive and never turn into a call or a form, the cause is usually specific: an unfinished listing, a website that is slow on a phone, or an ad that sends people to a page that does not match the search.
If we don’t double your qualified leads within 90 days, we work for free until we do.

Where the work goes in Tipperary
- Search is the slow part that lasts. We fix the technical health of your site, write the pages that answer what people in your town ask, and keep your Google Business Profile accurate, so people searching from Cashel or Carrick-on-Suir can find you.
- Paid advertising puts your offer in front of people who are already looking for it, for as long as the budget runs. We set it up around the jobs that matter most to you, such as solicitors, solar installers or windows and doors in Roscrea, and we cut any keyword that is not bringing in enquiries.
- Websites decide whether the rest of the work pays. We build and improve sites that load quickly on a phone, say plainly what you do and where, and make it easy to ring or send a message from the first screen.
- Social media suits trades where people choose on looks, like wedding venues near Cahir, restaurants in Carrick-on-Suir or car sales in Roscrea. We post the work that shows what you are good at and reply to the messages that come in.
- Email keeps in touch with people who have already enquired or bought from you. We write the messages, plan when they go out and track who replies, so a past customer hears from you before they go looking elsewhere.
-
How we report
Every month you get a written account of which enquiries arrived and which search or channel sent them, so you can tell whether the calls and forms come from your listing, the ads or the website. Impressions and position charts help us diagnose a problem, but they do not show whether the phone rang, so they stay out of the headline. We cannot promise a figure for your business in advance, because your trade, your competitors and the state of your site all change what is possible.
-
Our view on AI answers
Our position is that an AI answer is assembled from the same material a search result depends on: complete listings, recent reviews and pages that say what is offered in plain sentences. The work that earns a place in search therefore hands an assistant something to quote. When somebody asks for a solicitor in Thurles or a wedding venue near Cashel, the names it gives are usually the ones easiest to read. We do not treat the assistant as a separate search engine with its own rules, and we build for both at once.

Who stands behind the work
The company was founded in 2013, and our head office is in County Louth. Among Google Partners in Ireland, we are in the top 3 per cent. We are also a Shopify Partner, which matters if your shop sells online through Shopify. In Clonmel, Nenagh or Thurles the first checks are the same ones: where you appear for your trade, what your listing says and whether enquiries are being counted. Ask us to go through any of these credentials with you before you agree to anything.

What it costs
Ongoing management starts at €450 a month plus VAT. What you pay within that depends on how many towns you cover, how many channels you need and how much of the work is repairing what is already there, so we settle the figure once we have seen how your business is set up.
The audit for Google Ads is €295 plus VAT, and it suits a Tipperary business that already spends on Google and wants to know where the money is going. You can read what it covers on the Google Ads audit page.

Good work builds trust. In their words.
We 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.
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 Tipperary?
Yes. The address on this page is where we meet people in Tipperary, 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 Tipperary 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 Tipperary?
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 Tipperary, 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.
