Waterford firms that want a digital marketing agency with real follow-through get Bubblehub Media, and the work starts with the searches made in Tramore, Dungarvan and the city itself.
When a buyer looks for what you sell and rings a competitor, or paid clicks cost money without bringing a single enquiry, the cause can usually be traced to one specific gap.
If we don’t double your qualified leads within 90 days, we work for free until we do.

The Waterford report lands once a month and lists every call and form, with the channel and search term that produced it. Knowing which part of the work is paying matters more to us than a chart of impressions. No figure for your business is promised in advance, since the answer depends on your trade, the competition and where your site and listings stand. Each report will say what came in and where it came from.
In our view, an assistant reads the web much as a search engine does, so the physio in Dungarvan or dentist in Ferrybank it names tends to have a listing with no gaps, a page that explains the service in plain language and reviews that are recent. The work that gets a business found in search therefore gives an assistant something to quote, and we treat the two as one job.
Bubblehub Media dates from 2013, and the head office sits in County Louth. Google Partner status is ours, and that standing falls within the top 3 per cent of Irish Google Partners. Our Shopify Partner standing matters if your Waterford shop takes orders online. Ask us about any of those credentials and we will show you the working behind it.
The monthly fee for management starts at €450, plus VAT. The number turns on the channels you need and how far the current set-up must be fixed before growth can start, and we will give it to you once we have looked.
Our Google Ads audit comes to €295 plus VAT. For a Waterford business already paying for clicks that do not convert, it is the sensible first step, and the Google Ads audit page explains what it covers.
My phone should be ringing more than it is, and I am paying for ads that seem to go nowhere. I want someone to be straight with me about what is broken and what fixing it would take. Give us a rundown of your trade, the towns you cover and what a strong month would look like. We will say where we would begin. Show me the searches my Waterford business is missing

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 Waterford, 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.
