Local SEO for businesses in Kilkenny city and county, from Castlecomer to Mooncoin. We get you showing up on Google and Google Maps when people nearby search for what you do, and show you where you stand every month.
Most searches in Kilkenny name the city, a town or say “near me”. The city and the county towns are different markets, and Google treats them that way.
01
City and county
Kilkenny city has the most competition, while in Callan, Thomastown, Castlecomer and Graiguenamanagh only a few businesses in each trade have a complete Google profile. We start where you can win fastest.
Our first focus
02
Visitors search too
Kilkenny gets visitors all year. Restaurants, cafés, pubs, shops and places to stay are found on Google Maps by people who don’t know the city, so photos, opening hours and recent reviews matter even more.
We work on this
03
South Kilkenny and Waterford
Businesses in Ferrybank, Mooncoin and Piltown often serve Waterford city too. Your service areas and pages should cover both, without pretending to have an address you don’t.
We plan for this

plumberkilkenny.ie is one of our own local websites: a tight site for Kilkenny city and county with pages for each plumbing job and for Callan, Castlecomer and Thomastown, a quick quote form and tap-to-call. It’s exactly how we build for clients.
We work on your Google Business Profile as a Manager (you stay the owner), and on your website if you have one. Same plans and prices as anywhere in Ireland, planned around Kilkenny.
Search plan. We list the searches worth winning in your towns, like “plumber Thomastown” and “restaurant Kilkenny”, and check where you stand today in each one.
Google Business Profile. Categories, services, description, hours and photos, with service areas set to the towns you really cover, like Kilkenny city, Callan and Thomastown.
Reviews and posts. A reply to every review, a review link and QR code for your customers, and a Google post every week, like a new dish, a festival weekend offer or a recent job in Callan.
Town and service pages. Real, useful pages for the places you cover, like a page for Castlecomer and one for Graiguenamanagh (2 a month on SEO Growth, 4 on SEO Pro), not copy-and-paste pages with the name swapped.
Citations and local links. Your details the same everywhere, plus links from Irish directories, suppliers and Kilkenny clubs, festivals and local organisations that genuinely relate to you.
Monthly report. Where you show up in each town, what we did and what’s next. You see everything.

Our SEO plans are €299, €599 or €999 a month, ex VAT, with no setup fee and no lock-in. A shop on High Street competing for visitors is a different job to a roofer covering Callan and Thomastown, so we look at your searches on a free call and tell you honestly which plan fits.
Yes. We built and run plumberkilkenny.ie, a local website for plumbing jobs in Kilkenny city and county, with pages for Callan, Castlecomer and Thomastown, a quick quote form and tap-to-call. Open it and see how we’d build yours.
Yes, if you really serve both. Plenty of businesses in Ferrybank, Mooncoin and Piltown work in Waterford city every day. Add both areas to your Google profile, build a useful page for each, and collect reviews from customers on both sides. Never use a second address you don’t have: Google suspends profiles for it.
Mostly on Google Maps on their phone: “restaurants near me”, “coffee Kilkenny”, “gift shop Kilkenny”. Keep your hours right (bank holidays too), add new photos often, reply to every review and put your menu or products on your profile. That’s the work we do every month.
Often, yes. Smaller towns usually have fewer competitors with complete profiles, so they can be quicker wins, and people there still search by town name. We check your rankings from the centre of each town so you can see whether it’s working.
No, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Google decides rankings, and even Google says nobody can guarantee a #1 spot. What we do promise is specific. On every SEO plan: higher on Google for your tracked searches by day 90, or your next month is free until you are. On SEO Pro: Top 3 on Google Maps for your main search within 6 months, or your next month is free, and every month after that until we get there. The full terms are on our guarantee page.
No, never. You add us as a Manager on your Google Business Profile (Business Profile settings → People and access → Add → Manager, then enter our email). You stay the owner, we never see your password, and you can remove us any time.
No long-term contract on any plan. You can cancel with 30 days’ notice. Your website stays live during the notice period and we export your files to you on request.
It depends on your trade, your town and the competition. Fixing your Google profile and website basics can help within weeks, and our 90-day promise covers your first three months. Competitive searches usually take a few months of steady work, which is why the Top 3 guarantee runs over 6 months.
Phone Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm. We reply the same working day.
