Bubblehub is a web design company working with businesses across County Derry. We design and build websites that bring in enquiries, and that is the only thing we ask to be judged on.
Cross-border customers are normal here, so be clear about where you work and what currency you price in.
You are dealing with the people doing the work. We answer the phone, and you will not be passed to an account manager who has never opened your website.
One team, not four suppliers. Design, build, copy, photography and video are all done in-house. When something needs changing you ring one number, and the person who answers knows your site.
Built to be found, not just admired. We run SEO and paid media as well, so your site is structured for search from the first wireframe instead of being handed to somebody else to fix afterwards. A beautiful site nobody finds is an expensive brochure.

Certified where it counts. We are a Google Partner, a Meta Business Partner, a Shopify Partner and LinkedIn certified. That matters because the people building your site work in those platforms every day rather than reading about them.
We work across the whole island. For businesses in the North that means quoting and invoicing in sterling, and coming to see you when it is worth the drive rather than pretending we are around the corner.
Every site we build for a business in County Derry includes the things that decide whether it earns its keep:
Built on WordPress or Shopify, designed and developed here, and handed over working.

We provide web design, website development, e-commerce builds, website maintenance and hosting, SEO, paid advertising, branding and photography to businesses in Derry, Coleraine, Limavady, Magherafelt and Dungiven and everywhere between them.
Some of the sites we have built are further down this page, live and open to look at. The ones with the numbers behind them are in our case studies.
A straightforward site for a local business takes a few weeks and sits at the lower end. A shop with stock and payments takes longer and costs more. Anything with bookings, logins or an integration costs more again.
We would rather give you a real number than a range that fits nobody. Ring us and inside five minutes you will know roughly what your site would cost and whether we are the right people to build it. If we are not, we will say so and tell you who might be.

If you would sooner read first, we have written the detail up: what a website costs in Ireland.
A website is not finished on launch day, it is only live. We keep WordPress and Shopify sites updated, backed up and secure, watch the scores that decide how Google treats you, and keep improving the pages people actually land on.
If you want the site found as well as built, that is SEO in Derry, and it is the other half of the same job. Plenty of our clients start with the website and add it once the site is earning.
Tell us what you do, what the site has to bring in, and roughly what you had in mind to spend. We will come back with a straight answer rather than a brochure.
Ring 083 065 0164, or send us the details and we will be back to you within one working day. No obligation, and no salesperson will ring you twice.

Let’s plan your next moveFrom the outset of my dealings with Bubblehub I was struck by their professionalism, flexibility and dedication.
Bubble Hub Media have worked with us on websites, many catalogues, photography, branding, packaging and any ad hoc graphic design that arises.
I have worked with Ronan and the team here over the last number of years and I can't recommend them enough.
We heard about Bubblehub Media from a really satisfied client of theirs, and similarly our experience has been brilliant.
It depends on what the site has to do: a brochure site, a booking system and an online store are different jobs. Our free website cost calculator prices yours line by line from what Irish and UK designers publish, our guide to website costs explains what moves a project from one range to the next, and every quote we give is itemised.
Yes. We build on WordPress and Shopify, and before launch we help you get comfortable managing your own pages, posts and products. If you would rather we look after it, our hosting and maintenance packages cover updates, backups and support.
From the first wireframe. Site speed, page and title structure, internal linking, image optimisation and clean code are part of the build, not an add-on, so the site is ready to rank the day it goes live.
Yes. The address on this page is where we meet people in Derry, 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.
Weeks rather than months for a straightforward site, longer for a shop with stock and payments or anything with bookings and logins. You get a date when we quote. The thing that moves that date is almost always waiting on words and photographs, so we tell you up front exactly what we need from you and when.
The build gives it the best possible start: the pages, headings and internal links are structured for the searches that include Derry, and the site is responsive and fast on a phone, which is what most of those searches happen on. Ranking itself is earned over months rather than switched on, and that is the SEO work, which we also do.
On the searches that carry a place in them, you are not competing with Belfast at all. Google weights location heavily for those, so a Derry business with a good site wins them. Where you do compete is on the broad terms, and there it is decided by how fast the site is, how well it answers the question and who links to you, none of which depends on your address.
Yes. We are a Shopify Partner and we build ecommerce websites on both Shopify and WooCommerce. Which one suits you depends on how many products you carry, how you take payment and what it has to connect to, and we will tell you straight which is the better fit rather than selling you the one we prefer.
Yes, and a redesign is often a better place to start than a new build: keep what works, fix what does not. What matters most is keeping the rankings you already have, so every old address is mapped to its new one and redirected before the new site goes live.
Yes. The developers who build the site work beside the designers who draw it, so custom features, bookings, logins and connections to your other systems are built in-house rather than passed out to someone else.
