Nobody reads a videographer’s about page before they press play. The couple comparing websites for videographers in Dublin want to see ninety seconds of a real wedding, hear how you handle the vows and the speeches, and then find out what it costs and whether you are free. The marketing manager with a product launch in six weeks wants a finished corporate piece, a sense of how you work from a brief, and a way to get a quote by Friday. Both decide inside the first minute, and the site has to earn that minute.
We build the site so the reel plays the moment the page opens, set up the enquiry form and the Google listing, and report the numbers monthly. You shoot and cut.
Ninety seconds, then the price
The showreel goes at the top, hosted on YouTube or Vimeo and played in place on your page. Uploading files to the site itself makes it slow and costly to run, and the platforms stream better than a website ever will. One reel per kind of work, each under two minutes, and then the full films underneath for the people who want to see the whole thing. A full wedding film shows how you handle a dark church, a windy headland and a drunk best man; a highlight reel cannot.
Under the reel, the packages. From-prices with what each includes: hours of coverage, a highlight film and its length, the full ceremony and speeches, a second camera, drone footage, and when the film arrives. A couple comparing four videographers in one evening skips the one that says “get in touch for pricing”. Pricing on the page is not a loss of mystique. It is the difference between a pile of enquiries that go nowhere and a few that book.
Two different briefs on the one site
Weddings and corporate work are sold to different people in different moods, and they should not share a page. The wedding page talks to a couple: how you shoot a day, whether you are in the room or in the corner, how you record the vows, how long until the film, whether the raw footage is ever supplied. The business page talks to a company: promotional films, event coverage, training and recruitment videos, social clips, property walk-throughs, with examples of each, usage rights explained and a brief form that asks the questions you would ask on the first call.
If you fly a drone, say so, say you are registered as an operator with the IAA, and say where you can and cannot fly. Couples ask for drone shots without knowing a hotel beside an airport is not going to get them.
Say when the film arrives
Turnaround is the thing that causes the most trouble after the day, and it is the easiest to fix on the page. Wedding films take months to edit properly, and couples are fine with that if they were told before they booked. State the typical delivery for the highlight film and for the full edit, what happens in busy months, and when they get a first look. Corporate work runs on deadlines instead, so say what your fastest realistic turnaround is and what rush costs.
A section on how you work with the photographer matters more than videographers think. Couples worry about two people with cameras fighting for the same aisle. If you already work well alongside a photographer, say so and describe how the day is shared.
When the enquiries come
Wedding enquiries start arriving the week after Christmas, when the new engagements begin planning, and they are booking twelve to eighteen months out. The shooting itself runs from April to October, with Saturdays gone first and midweek dates filling later. Corporate work follows the business year: budgets to spend before December, product launches in spring and autumn, Christmas messages shot in November. A line on the site saying what season you are booking into is worth having, and you change it yourself from your phone.
Instagram will keep bringing you couples, and the site does not replace it. What the site does is answer the questions a Reel cannot, sit where Google and the AI tools can read it when someone types “wedding videographer in Dublin”, and belong to you. We wrote more on this in do you need a website if you have Instagram.
What we need
Links to your reels and two or three full films, your packages with from-prices and delivery times, your drone and insurance details as you want them stated, the areas you travel to, a photo of you with a camera and a short piece on how you shoot. Ten minutes on the phone and we can build from that.
Plan and price
Essentials, at €499 to set up and €50 a month, is the right start for most videographers: the site, the reel, the dated enquiry form and the Google listing. Complete, at €1,499 and €100 a month, adds the booking fee by card, email on your own domain for corporate quotes and the chat box. The pricing page has the full comparison. Outside Dublin, the first chat is a video call, which in your case seems only right.
