Four reasons Irish websites lose customers.

Each one is common, measurable and fixable. Here is what goes wrong, and exactly what we do about it.

01The problem

Your website lets mobile visitors down

Two in three web page views in Ireland now come from a phone. A site that crawls on a rural signal, needs pinching to read or hides the contact details sends those visitors straight back to Google.

How we fix it

A fast website built around the phone

  • Pages designed for a small screen first, then widened for desktop
  • Core Web Vitals targets agreed in the contract and checked on real phones
  • Phone number, Eircode directions and the enquiry form one tap away

Web designWebsite redesign

02The problem

Buyers ask Google or an AI tool, and you are not in the answer

Irish buyers start on Google, and more of them now ask AI tools as well. If your business is missing from the first page, the map results or the answers those tools give, the enquiry goes to a competitor who does show up.

How we fix it

Show up wherever Irish buyers search

  • SEO built on the terms people in your county actually search
  • A Google Business Profile with your Eircode, hours and reviews kept current
  • Clear, well-sourced pages that AI search can quote, plus Google Ads for quick wins

03The problem

People look around, then leave without making contact

Visitors who cannot find a price guide, a clear next step or proof that you have done this before tend to drift away. Those who do enquire expect a quick answer, and a reply the next afternoon often arrives too late.

How we fix it

Turn visits into enquiries you can act on

  • Pages that settle cost, process and proof questions up front
  • Forms that ask only what you need to reply properly
  • Instant confirmation emails and lead alerts, so every enquiry gets a prompt response

Conversion optimisationEmail & automation

04The problem

Accessibility and consent are now legal duties

Since 28 June 2025 the European Accessibility Act has covered online shops and many consumer services in Ireland, and the DPC expects cookie consent to be a real choice, analytics included. A site that blocks keyboard users or nudges everyone to Accept all is now a legal problem.

How we fix it

Accessibility and consent built in, not bolted on

  • Tested to WCAG 2.2 AA with keyboard and screen reader before launch
  • Analytics and ads held back until visitors agree, with Reject as prominent as Accept
  • An accessibility statement and a GDPR privacy notice ready at launch

The Irish rules we build for

The Galway market

Three economies, one county.

County Galway had 21,867 active enterprises in 2024. Manufacturing engages the most people, 20,302, followed by wholesale and retail at 17,685 and hospitality at 15,632. Each chases a different visitor: a plant in Parkmore courts engineers, a hotel near Eyre Square courts guests on their phones, and a founder at PorterShed courts investors and first customers.

We build each Galway site around its main buyer. Manufacturers get spec pages and quote forms, hotels and restaurants get direct booking and fast mobile menus, and start-ups get product and pricing pages that explain the idea quickly. Everything is tested to WCAG 2.2 AA, and every enquiry or booking is tracked from the very first one.

Straight answers

Questions Galway businesses ask.

How much does a website cost in Galway?

A Galway hotel, shop or practice can start with a site of up to five pages from €350, and an online store starts at €700. Manufacturers and growing start-ups often need a bespoke 6 to 15 page site, usually €600 to €800. The calculator shows your figure in a minute, and we confirm a fixed price in euros, in writing.

Can you build a booking-led site for a Galway hotel or restaurant?

Yes. Hospitality engages 15,632 people in County Galway, the third-largest sector in the county. We design booking-first pages, quick menus and availability that connects to your booking engine, so more guests reserve with you directly and fewer pay a platform's commission.

Do you work with manufacturers in Parkmore and Mervue?

Yes. Manufacturing is County Galway's largest sector, with 20,302 people engaged. Industrial buyers want capability, certifications and a quick route to a quote, so we build those first and make technical content easy to find and download.

We are a start-up at PorterShed. Can you help us launch?

Yes. Early-stage sites need to explain the product fast, show traction honestly and give investors and first customers a clear next step. We scope a launch site you can grow into rather than a template you will replace within a year, and you own every part of it from day one.

How does a Galway business show up in local search?

Consistency and real local pages. We publish your name, address with Eircode, opening hours and service area the same way everywhere, create pages only for places you genuinely serve, from Oranmore to Tuam, and mark them up so Google and AI search connect you to them.

Do you have a Galway office?

No. Galway clients work with us through email and a shared board, with weekly staging links and every decision in writing. We will never claim a local address we do not have.

Do Galway hospitality sites need cookie consent for booking tracking?

Usually, yes. In Ireland analytics and advertising cookies need prior consent, and booking engines often add their own trackers. We audit every script on the site, hold the non-essential ones until a guest agrees, and keep conversion reporting working through Google Consent Mode v2.
