In short
Mizen Studio offers web design & development for businesses across Ireland, from our studio in Ballydehob, West Cork. We design and build fast, beautiful websites that your customers actually use, and that Google and your phone both love. New builds, redesigns, e-commerce and booking.
The problem
Most small-business websites quietly lose money.
Slow to load. Awkward on a phone. Built on a template that fights you every time you want to change a price. Buried on page three of Google because nobody thought about search when it was made.
Your website is usually the first real impression a customer gets. If it looks like an afterthought, they assume the rest of your business is too. That is a decision you can undo in weeks.
Our approach
Designed around your customer, built to be found.
We start with what your customer is trying to do, then design the shortest, clearest path to it. We build on solid, standards-based foundations that load fast, work on every device and are easy for you to run.
Search is baked in from the first day, not bolted on later. And because you deal with the person doing the work, decisions happen in hours, not weeks.

Clients say
In their words.
We worked with Adam across our web design, and he supported us in launching our online platform for training, our ongoing SEO and digital campaigns, and the digital PR behind our salon and training expansion. He is a genuine partner, not a supplier, and he thinks about the business, not just the website.
Adam built our entire brand and platform presence from scratch and did the work of a full agency on his own. Positioning, design, copy, build, the lot, delivered faster and sharper than teams many times the size. If you want senior thinking and someone who actually ships, he is rare.
We brought Mizen Studio in as design partners and got a good deal more than that. The technical depth was obvious quickly, but the real value was strategic: how to structure the product, how the business model should work, and how to build for the growth we were planning. They understood what we were making before we could describe it properly.
FAQ
Questions, answered
How much does a website cost?
For most Cork SMEs, a proper business website lands somewhere between €1,500 and €6,000 depending on size and features. We give you a fixed written quote before any work starts, and our website cost calculator gives you a ballpark in seconds.
How long does it take?
A small site can go live in one to two weeks. A larger business site is usually three to five weeks. We move faster than most agencies because you deal directly with the person building it.
Will I be able to update it myself?
Yes. We build on systems you can actually manage, and we train you at handover so changing a price, a menu or an opening time takes minutes.
Do you do SEO too?
Every site we build has SEO foundations included. If you want ongoing growth, our digital marketing service takes it further.
Where are you based, and do you work outside Cork?
We are based in West Cork and love working with local businesses, but we work with clients across Ireland and the UK. Most of the process is done remotely, with calls whenever you need them.
