If you can find a cheaper, more cost effective method of advertising your services to budding entrepreneurs and SMEs continuously 24 hours a day, over 365 days a year, please let us know! We want to sign up too! 

To ensure a better click through rate and value for money for our advertisers, there is a limit on the number of listings accepted for any particular category. For sections where listings are accepted on a county basis (eg Accountants or Website Design)  a maximum of seven listings are accepted for each of the following: Dublin City, Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal, South Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick. For all other areas the maximum is five listings. To ensure that there is a good population base of at least 100,000 some counties are combined  (eg Carlow and Laois).

Where categories are national (eg Office Supplies), the number of listings is capped at ten.

10% of all directory income generated by Business-Startup.ie will be lent to entrepreneurs overseas in less developed countries of the world who do not have access to the wealth of resources available to us here in Ireland but, who strive nonetheless to get a new business off the ground in order to provide for themselves and their families. To make an impact both at home and overseas, we have teamed up with the micro-lending website Kiva who specialise in channelling micro-loans to entrepreneurs in developing countries across the world.
