The cost of website development depends on the size, complexity and functionality required. A professional business website will have different requirements from an eCommerce platform, customer portal or bespoke web application.

At 2Cubed, every project is individually scoped and priced based on the design, development, integrations and technical work involved. Following an initial consultation, we provide a clear proposal outlining the recommended solution, project scope and associated costs.

Project timescales vary depending on the size and complexity of the website. A straightforward business website may take several weeks, while a bespoke platform with advanced functionality or third-party integrations will require a longer development period.

At the beginning of every project, we agree on a realistic schedule covering discovery, planning, design, development, testing and launch. You will receive regular updates throughout the process so you always know how the project is progressing.

We develop a wide range of websites and digital platforms, including:

• Professional business websites
• eCommerce websites
• Customer and staff portals
• Membership platforms
• Booking and scheduling systems
• Progressive Web Apps
• Database-driven applications
• Bespoke business management systems
• Custom dashboards and reporting tools

Every solution is designed around the organisation’s specific users, processes and long-term goals.

Yes. Bespoke development is one of our core services.

Rather than forcing your business to work around the limitations of an off-the-shelf platform, we can develop custom functionality that reflects the way your organisation operates. This may include automated workflows, customer portals, booking systems, dashboards, document management or internal business applications.

The technology used will depend on the requirements of the project. Our development experience includes WordPress, WooCommerce, PHP, MySQL, Laravel, Vue, Nuxt, REST APIs, headless CMS platforms, AWS, Netlify and Cloudflare.

We do not recommend technology simply because it is popular. Our developers assess your functionality, security, performance and scalability requirements before selecting the most appropriate solution.

Yes. We develop secure integrations that allow websites and web applications to communicate with third-party platforms.

These can include:

• CRM systems
• ERP software
• Payment gateways
• Accounting platforms
• Booking systems
• Stock management software
• Shipping providers
• Marketing automation platforms
• Microsoft 365
• HubSpot
• Stripe
• Xero
• Sage

Integrations can reduce duplicate data entry, automate repetitive processes and improve the accuracy of information across your business.

Yes. We regularly support, improve and redevelop websites originally created by other agencies or developers.

We will begin by reviewing the website’s technology, code quality, hosting environment, security and existing functionality. We can then recommend whether the website can be maintained and improved or whether redevelopment would provide better long-term value.

Yes. Every website we develop is designed to provide a clear and consistent experience across smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop screens.

Accessibility, usability and responsive behaviour are considered throughout the design and development process. Where required, we can also develop and test websites against relevant WCAG accessibility standards.

Every website is developed using a search-friendly technical structure. This includes clean page architecture, responsive layouts, performance considerations, editable metadata and appropriate heading structures.

Search engine optimisation is an ongoing discipline, so technical development provides the foundation rather than guaranteeing rankings. Our SEO team can also support keyword research, content optimisation and long-term organic search strategies.

Yes. Once the agreed project has been completed and paid for, you will own the website and the content created specifically for your project, subject to any third-party software, platform or licensing terms.

Any relevant licensing arrangements will be clearly explained before development begins.

Yes. We can provide secure website hosting suited to the technology, traffic and performance requirements of your project.

Our team can also manage website migrations, domain configuration, SSL certificates, server environments, backups and ongoing hosting support.

Yes. We provide ongoing website maintenance, technical support and future development after launch.

Our maintenance services can include:

• Software and plugin updates
• Security monitoring
• Website backups
• Performance optimisation
• Hosting and server support
• Technical troubleshooting
• Content changes
• New functionality and enhancements

2Cubed maintains and supports more than 400 websites every year, giving our clients continued access to an experienced Irish development team.

The first step is an initial conversation with our team. We will discuss your business, existing systems, users, objectives and the functionality you require.

From there, we can recommend the most appropriate approach and prepare a detailed proposal outlining the project scope, process, estimated timescale and costs.
