Often named the “Silicon Valley of Europe”, Ireland hosts the European headquarters of the world’s biggest tech companies. Most of them are located in Dublin, specifically in the Dublin Docklands area, also called “Silicon Docks”. 

Ireland wasn’t particularly known for its IT sector, but things changed when in the early 2000s tech giants started opening their European headquarters across the country.

According to Technology Ireland, the tech sector (estimated at about $50B) accounts for about 13% of the country’s GDP. This is a significant contributor to the country’s economic growth.

Based on the Central Bank of Ireland report, there were over 160K employed IT professionals at the end of 2022, which represented a 30% increase compared to previous years

These days, multinational tech companies like Microsoft, Google, Meta, Amazon, Adobe, IBM, Intel, Oracle, Indeed, Hubspot and many more, have offices in Dublin and are expanding their local presence by employing thousands of professionals.

Dublin created a friendly environment for multinational companies (corporate tax, good infrastructure, large talent pool, government support, funding, research & development, etc.), becoming a gateway to the EU for tech companies and a thriving IT hub.  

It’s no surprise that Dublin is a major exporter of software services, being a top city by the value of exported services. Also, the United States is the biggest investor in Ireland with the largest number of IT companies.

Local SEO (search engine optimization) is the process of optimizing your website for local search. It targets local online visitors from specific cities, regions, areas and includes a wide variety of techniques to expand the visibility of your site and increase its local search ranking.

Small businesses rely on local audiences and can benefit from local SEO in terms of quality traffic and leads. It allows them to be listed on Google Maps or Bing Maps and organic search results showing Map Packs (listings showing local businesses and their location, contacts, websites, opening hours, etc.).

It also implies creating and managing a Google Business Profile or Bing Places for Business, so users can find your business in local search results and learn more about your services/products, get in touch with you, leave reviews.

The vast majority of users would use a mobile device to search for a local business and learn more about its offers before making a purchase. They use the location or “near me” search terms to find the desired services or products. Example: “web design agency near me”.

Here are some advantages of local SEO for businesses:

• High-quality traffic
