IDA Ireland Website Services

IDA Ireland

The IDA Ireland main site and accompanying foreign language sites attract approximately 500 000 visitors a year — our top priority is making Ireland the first country on anyone’s FDI list. The website is a key mechanism for initial engagement of IDA Ireland’s target market and audience.

• assess our current website;
• create a strategy with our goals in mind; and
• design/implement the necessary features/changes:
— hosting and management,
— support, Maintenance and Improvement.
Some of our more minor requirements include social media integration (LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram), ensuring the current site meets accessibility requirements, usability testing, categorisation and internal searches, integrate marketing automation software, GDPR management and various hosting requirements.
