A little bit about us...

Hi, I’m Conor Keane, founder of The Online Department.

Having spent more than 15 years as a journalist, designer and editor for some of Ireland’s biggest newspapers – and having witnessed first-hand (and written my MBA dissertation about) the disruption by technology of the newspaper advertising business model – I gave up journalism for digital marketing before eventually starting The Online Department, with a mission to deliver innovative and profitable digital marketing services to small and medium size businesses. 

While digital marketing is essential in today’s world, not every business has the resources or requirements for a full-time digital marketing department. The Online Department was founded specifically with these types of companies in mind.

We build beautiful websites that are crafted to the highest technical standards while also being designed to communicate your most important messages directly to your target market. We also provide a range of digital marketing services that can be tailored to your specific business needs, to ensure you get the most from your website. Our blend of technical excellence, innovation and creative execution is what makes us your trusted online partner.

We would love to speak to you, so please contact us today.

What Our clients Say

"We wanted to expand the business online and didn't really know where to start when it came to digital marketing so I got in touch with Conor, who was of great help from day one. He explained the issues we had with our website and on the back of his advice we completely redesigned our site and have seen a steady climb both in our search rankings and the leads coming in from the internet. He also ran some pay-per-click and facebook ad campaigns for us which saw some very nice results. We look forward to continuing to work with The Online Department in the future."
