Loved working with Alan and the TDD team. Their enthusiasm, professionalism, and attention to detail was second to none. They took our brief and designed a fresh, modern and beautiful looking website for us.
TDD built our Magento website and we’re very satisfied with the end result delivered and the professionalism they showed. TDD nailed our product hierarchy from the start, one of the issues we had with our former site.
TDD built our new Magento website and did a fantastic job. They have been supporting the site for the last few years and they are so reliable and easy to deal with. Couldn’t recommend them more.
We were delighted to work with The Digital Department to develop our new purchasing app. They got into the project, showed a flexible attitude and delivered what we were looking for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our team designs every website to generate more business, not just to look good, clear calls to action, fast load times, and layouts built around turning visitors into enquiries, backed by ongoing performance tracking after launch.
Most websites are built within 6–8 weeks from initial brief to launch, depending on complexity and how quickly content and feedback are provided along the way.
Yes, we regularly take over and rebuild underperforming sites for businesses replacing an existing agency or outgrown platform.
Cost depends on the scope of the project, whether it’s web design, e-commerce, SEO, PPC, or lead generation, the number of pages or channels involved, and any custom integrations like booking systems, CRMs, or ad platforms. Because every business’s needs are different, we scope each project individually and provide a tailored quote rather than a generic price list. Several clients also qualify for schemes such as the Trading Online Voucher or Grow Digital scheme, ask us about your eligibility.
Yes, our e-commerce builds are optimised for conversion from the ground up, clear product journeys, fast checkout, and mobile-first design, so the store is built to sell, not just to exist online.
We build primarily on Shopify and WooCommerce, and recommend the right platform for your product range, order volume, and growth plans rather than a one-size-fits-all build.
Yes, we regularly audit and optimise existing stores improving site speed, checkout flow, and product pages for businesses whose current store isn’t converting as well as it should.
Yes, SEO is one of our core services alongside web design. Our team builds every website with SEO fundamentals in place from launch, and offers ongoing SEO for Cork and Irish businesses who want to grow their search visibility over time.
Yes, our team plans, sets up, and manages Google Ads and paid social campaigns for Irish businesses, with budgets, targeting, and reporting tailored to your sector and goals.

Yes, we run organic social media and paid advertising on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn as part of our wider digital marketing services.
We work across home services, B2B, professional services, retail, and e-commerce, with deeper specialist experience in home service and B2B lead generation, so the team already understands the buyers you’re trying to reach.
Yes, AI search optimisation is one of our dedicated services. We build in the structured data, content, and proof points AI tools look for when recommending a business across web design, SEO, and marketing, not just traditional Google ranking factors.
Yes, we’re based in Cork but work with businesses across Ireland, with a significant share of our clients located outside Cork, in towns and cities nationwide.
You’ll scope your project with our team on a short call, we’ll follow up with a clear proposal, and once you’re happy to proceed, we move into discovery and design before build and launch, keeping you updated at every stage rather than handing the project off between departments.
Ongoing support is built into how we work, not an afterthought, we offer hosting, updates, and maintenance, with retainer options available for businesses that want continued SEO or marketing support to keep growing after launch.
