Pubdate keeps your Google listing active, your hours accurate, and your upcoming events visible — so you show up when people are looking, and give them a reason to choose you.
When someone searches for a pub nearby, Google shows the listings it trusts most — the ones with accurate hours, recent posts, and events listed for the week. A pub that updates its listing every week shows up above one that hasn't posted since 2022.The same goes for Facebook and Instagram. A page that hasn't had a post in three weeks looks like somewhere that might not be worth the visit.The problem isn't that pub owners don't care. It's that they're running a pub. Updating Google and posting on social media is the last thing on your mind at the end of a long shift.That's what Pubdate is for.
A quick message on Monday
We check in over WhatsApp each week. You reply with what's happening — events, any changes to opening hours, whatever's on. Two minutes and you're done.
Your Google listing stays current
Your hours, upcoming events, and weekly specials are updated on Google Business Profile — so your listing is accurate and active on both Google Search and Maps.
Your social channels stay active
Because we already know what's on, we turn it into posts for Facebook and Instagram — branded graphics, written and scheduled for you. You approve everything before it goes out.
For your Google listing
We update your Google Business Profile each week — keeping your opening hours correct, posting your upcoming events, managing bank holiday and special closures, and posting responses to Google reviews once you've approved them over WhatsApp.
For Facebook and Instagram
We create a branded weekly post from your update, send it to you for approval, and schedule it to your existing Facebook page and Instagram account. We also handle day-of reminders for each event and post approved responses to Facebook reviews on your behalf.
How you stay in control
You connect your accounts once during setup and can disconnect any time. Nothing is ever posted without your sign-off — every piece of content comes to you for approval over WhatsApp first.
Pubdate is for independent Irish pub owners who want their online presence to actually reflect what's happening in their pub — without having to manage it themselves.If you've got a Google listing that's gone quiet, a Facebook page that posts whenever someone remembers, and no time to fix either — Pubdate handles it from a two-minute WhatsApp message every Monday.
We're getting set up and will be taking on our first pubs shortly. Get in touch and we'll let you know as soon as we're ready.
