Your business is good.
Online, it's invisible.
I build the online half of small businesses in Dublin — the site, the Google listing, the booking that stops eating your afternoon.
Three things that quietly cost you money every week.
Invisible on Google
Someone in Blanchardstown searches for what you do. Your competitor appears. You don't. That's the whole game — and it's fixable in weeks, not months.
No site, or a broken one
No site at all, or one that was cheap in 2018 and unreadable on a phone in 2026. Either way, people bounce before they see what you actually offer.
Bookings still by phone
Half your afternoon disappears to WhatsApp and callbacks. A booking form on the site does the same job while you're serving the customer in front of you.
Three packages, prices on the label.
No "request a quote". You know what it costs before you email me.

The Irish State
pays half.
The Trading Online Voucher covers up to 50% of the cost of getting your business online. Most of my clients qualify. I handle the application from start to finish — no chasing forms.

Nine years in tech. Four in Ireland. One clear focus.
I'm Marcus. Grew up in Brazil, spent nine years across IT support, systems analysis, business applications, BI and infrastructure — and moved to Dublin four years ago.
Small business owners kept telling me the same story: doing everything right in person and losing to a competitor with a worse product but a better website. So I started fixing it, one shop at a time.
English or Portuguese, either works. Coffee is at Blanchardstown.
What business owners ask first.
- How long does a project take?
- Presence: 2–3 weeks. Growth: 4–6 weeks. I don't start until content is in — most of the timeline is content, not code.
- What do you need from me?
- Photos of the business, a short list of services with prices, and access to your Google Business Profile. If you have none of that yet, I'll walk you through what to gather in the first call.
- Who owns the site when we're done?
- You do — domain, hosting account, source code, everything. No lock-in. If you leave me tomorrow, another developer can pick it up on Monday.
- What if I want to change things later?
- Small edits are included in the maintenance plan. Bigger changes (new pages, new features) are quoted upfront. Nothing is billed by the hour.
- How does the Trading Online Voucher work?
- You apply through your Local Enterprise Office; I handle the two quotes and the paperwork. The State reimburses up to 50% — most Growth projects come to €1,750 out of pocket.
- Do you cover my area?
- I work with clients worldwide — I'm based in Ireland but the whole process runs remotely, so location doesn't change the price or the timeline. If you're in Ireland, I'll happily come out for the first meeting in person.
Free audit of your online presence.
Two pages, plain English, no sales deck. I look at your Google presence and your site (if you have one), and tell you the three things I'd fix first. Delivered by email in 48 hours.
- 01Where you appear on Google
For the searches your customers actually type — not vanity keywords.
- 02State of your Google Business Profile
Photos, opening hours, categories, review responses.
- 03Your current site, honest read
Mobile speed, what a first-time visitor sees, what's broken, what's missing.
- 04Three things to fix first
Prioritised by impact. If you do only one, do this one.
