What does a website cost?

The cost of a website depends on your industry, how strong your competitors are online and what you want the site to achieve. MEANit provides pricing guidance on the Pricing page, but a detailed quote is only given after a short conversation to understand your goals, your current website, your brand and the content you need.

Are you the right web design agency fit for us?

MEANit focuses on growth minded professional services firms, mainly in the construction, financial and legal sectors in Ireland. The team can only take on a small number of new clients each month, so there is an initial conversation to check there is a good fit on both sides, without any hard sales pitches.

How long does a website take to design and develop?

Design and development work can take one to three weeks once all content is ready, but a full project typically runs four to eight weeks. Time is spent on discovery, planning, wireframes, design approvals and content gathering before development, testing and search engine optimisation.

Do you have a website design process?

Yes. MEANit follows a defined multi step website design process, from initial enquiry and discovery, through planning, wireframes and design, into development, testing, launch and ongoing support. The process is explained in more detail on the dedicated Our Process page.

Do you offer ongoing SEO search engine optimisation?

Yes. MEANit offers initial and ongoing SEO services to help firms in Ireland get found in Google and AI driven search results. Ongoing work focuses on improving visibility, attracting the right visitors and generating pre qualified leads rather than simply chasing traffic volume.

What is GEO Generative Engine Optimisation and AEO Answer Engine Optimisation?

GEO is Generative Engine Optimisation and AEO is Answer Engine Optimisation. Both relate to helping your content appear in AI driven answers and long form search queries, including voice search. MEANit treats GEO and AEO as part of good SEO practice, writing and structuring content so that it works for Google, AI overviews and other search platforms.

Do you offer ongoing website support and maintenance?

Yes. MEANit offers website support plans to keep WordPress sites secure, fast and up to date, with health checks, updates, monitoring and monthly reports. Clients are expected to be on a care plan if they want MEANit to work on their site on an ongoing basis.

Do you offer AI training?

MEANit provides AI training for its own clients, mainly for marketing teams. Training covers using AI for written, photographic and video content, chatbots, email, first draft proposals, recruitment documents and SEO tasks such as metadata and blog outlines.

Do you have an hourly web design rate?

Yes. MEANit has an hourly rate for ad hoc work and a lower rate for existing clients on support plans. In general, the agency prefers not to do one off work on websites it did not build, and will usually start with a website audit to see what is in place and what needs to be fixed.

Do you offer eCommerce website design?

MEANit can deliver eCommerce websites for manufacturers and professional services businesses where there is a clear path to a return on investment. The agency does not focus on traditional retail or hospitality eCommerce because of the high competition and investment required to be profitable in those markets.

Talk to us about advertising with Google Ads

READ SOME OF GOOGLE ADS FAQS

It is simple to use Google Ads and just takes some time to set up and then monitor its performance. You can do the advertising with Google Ads yourself if you are curious and have the time. Or you can just pay someone to do it. It can be very cost-effective if done right. And very expensive if done badly.

But what exactly is Google Ads?

It’s an online advertising platform that allows you to create targeted ads displayed across Google Search, YouTube, Gmail, and a vast network of partner websites. Imagine your ideal customer searching for a product or service you offer. With Google Ads Set-up, our team will craft compelling ads that grab attention and ensure your business appears right at the top of their search results, putting you front and centre.

The Challenges and Solutions of Google Ads

Many businesses in Ireland struggle with:

Limited Brand Awareness

Standing out in a crowded online marketplace can be tough.

Targeted Audience Reach

Reaching the right customers with your message can feel like a guessing game.

Wasted Ad Spend

Traditional advertising methods often involve broad reach with limited return. And Google can eat up your budget fast if you agree to advertising in partner networks.

This is where MEANit‘s Google Ads Set-up services can be your secret weapon. Our team of Google Ads specialists can help you:

Craft Compelling Ads

Create high-impact ads that grab attention and drive conversions.

Target the Right Audience

We use laser-focused targeting to reach your ideal customers, maximising your return on investment (ROI).

Optimise Your Campaigns

Our experts will continuously monitor and adjust your campaigns for maximum efficiency, ensuring you get the most bang for your buck. We tailor and tweak ads to reduce unnecessary spend.

Let’s get you started with setting up Google Ads

Visit Google Ads

Head to the official Google Ads homepage at https://ads.google.com/home/how-it-works/.

Sign In or Create an Account

You’ll need a Google account to access Ads. If you have a Gmail address, you’re good to go! Otherwise, create a new Google account. It is FREE.

Business Information

Google Ads might suggest linking your existing Google Business Profile for a smoother setup. You can also manually enter your business name and website URL or domain name.

Campaign Goals & Budget

Campaign Goals

Choose what you want your ads to achieve. Common goals include:

Increasing website traffic

Generating leads

Boosting sales

Raising brand awareness

Budget

Set a daily or total budget for your campaign. This determines how much you’re willing to spend per day or overall on your ads.

Payment Details

Enter your payment information to cover your advertising costs. Remember, you only pay when someone clicks on your ad (pay-per-click model).

Additional Tips:

Google Ads offers resources and tutorials within the platform and through web searches to guide you through the setup process in more detail.

Explore free trials or introductory offers Google Ads might have for new users. They regularly give you $400 to spend if you match it with $400.

Setting up an account is just the initial step. Optimising your campaigns for best results requires ongoing effort or the expertise of a Google Ads professional.

For a Comprehensive Setup:

For a more in-depth setup or ongoing management, consider reaching out to a Google Ads agency. They can handle the complexities of campaign creation, optimisation, and analysis, freeing you up to focus on what is important to you, running your business.

The Benefits of MEANit’s Google Ads Set-up Service

Measurable Results: Track your campaign performance in real-time and see the impact of your advertising efforts clearly.

Your ads can be displayed on search engines, websites, and apps across the internet, reaching a vast audience. The search networks or partner networks can result in some flaky figures, and unnecessary expense, so we tend to switch off that option.

I have known Michael, John and the team for many years and have also worked with them in a professional capacity on a number of client projects through my design studio, JKS Design, during that time.

I'm very particular about who I work with and expect suppliers to be approachable, easy to deal with and excellent at what they do... the MEANit team have this in spades! They are the web development team I recommend to my own clients and contacts. Professional, thorough and competitively priced. I'm always confident recommending them, knowing my clients will be well looked after. Janine Sullivan

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Web design & SEO that works. I can't recommend Michael and John & from Mean IT highly enough. From initial consultation, to implementing a plan and watching my website become a reality, nothing was ever a problem. I found Mean IT to be very professional & knowledgeable. Michael has been excellent giving me tips to help with my Google ranking and what is the best way to increase visitors and more importantly increasing sales on my website. My website is ranking number one in google for the services I offer, email enquiries and phone calls coming in every week, all from my website. I know this, as every time I ask where did they hear of my business and it's always the same, 'You where first on google'.  I look forward to adapting and upgrading my graphic design website in the future with Michael & the team. Thanks again for all your help and giving my business an excellent online presence.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I built my own website for my new business a couple of years ago and thought it was doing the job — until I realised it wasn’t bringing in any real leads. I recently invested in a new site with Michael and the team at MEANit Web and design, and the difference has been incredible. I’m now getting genuine enquiries & sales from people searching on Google for the services I provide. They took the time to understand my business, my location, and my audience — and built a site that actually works. Don’t make the mistake I did. Spend the money and get it done right — it’s worth every penny.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We approached Michael last year with the objective of upgrading our existing website. The experience has been fantastic, quick action and clear communication. John and Michael listened and delivered on our objectives. The new website has had a positive impact for us, successfully attracting oversea bookings before they arrive in Ireland. We are more than happy with Meanit, a positive experience and impact with constant help and support. They care and want the website to achieve its goals as much as we do as a small business we can’t thank you enough.

Google Ads Set Up Service FAQS

Is Google Ads right for my business?

Google Ads can benefit businesses of all sizes and industries. However, the time may not be right for you. Or your target market may not be exposed to Google Ads. Or the required investment to have you compete might be more than you can afford or want to invest.

How much does Google Ads cost?

You set your budget, so you have complete control over your advertising spend. However if your competitors are willing to bid more than you, then they get seen and you do not.

How long does it take to see results?

Results can vary, but you can often see an increase in website traffic within days. Especially if your offer or bid is higher than your competitors.

Do I need any experience to use Google Ads?

While Google Ads supposedly offers a user-friendly platform, our team can handle the entire setup and management for you. That platform is forever changing, as Google attempts to make it more user friendly. It is a user interface designed by developer nerds, so it is never simple.

Can I track my results?

Absolutely! Google Ads provides detailed reporting so you can track clicks, conversions, and ROI. Watch out for flaky numbers or being charged twice for every one engagement. Sometimes you have to appeal your billing.

What are the different types of Google Ads campaigns?

There are various campaign types, including Search Network campaigns, Display Network campaigns, and Shopping campaigns. Each caters to specific advertising goals:

Search Network campaigns: Target users actively searching for products or services related to yours on Google Search and partner websites.This is where our clients hang out.

Display Network campaigns: Showcase your ads on a vast network of websites and apps frequented by your target audience. This is something we do not currently recommend for our clients.

Shopping campaigns: Promote your products directly to users searching for similar items with images, prices, and merchant information.

How can I improve my Google Ads results?

Our Google Ads specialists can help you optimise your campaigns in several ways, such as:

A/B testing varying ad versions to figure out which ones work best.

Refining your keyword targeting to reach a more qualified audience.

Utilising ad extensions to provide additional information and increase ad visibility.

Bear in mind that these guys work for Google not you. Their job is to increase their income from you.

What are ad extensions?

Ad extensions are additional pieces of information displayed alongside your ad, like your phone number, address, or a link to a specific page on your website.For each extension you click Google gets more money.

Do I need a Google Ads specialist?

While Google Ads offers user-friendly tools, managing a successful campaign requires some expertise in keyword research, ad copywriting, campaign optimisation, and data analysis. A Google Ads specialist or someone with experience in your industry can handle these complexities for you, freeing you up to focus on running your business.

How do I get started with Google Ads?

Contact MEANit today. We offer a FREE consultation to discuss your business goals and talk about tailoring a Google Ads strategy that fits your needs and budget. Only if we both feel that we are a good fit for each other.
