Vet ads in Galway: €0.53 a click

What a booked appointment costs in clicks

At a lead rate of 16.22% of clicks (calls and forms; US benchmark, LocaliQ 2026, Animals & Pets) and a booking rate of 22% of calls (US/Canada benchmark, Patient Prism - Veterinary Patient Access Report 2025), a booked appointment costs about €15 in clicks at €0.53 a click.

Cost per booked appointment in Galway is the click price divided by the lead rate times the booking rate. The rates are national benchmarks, not Galway figures; the planner below starts from them and you can change both.

Each row uses the same two rates as the sentence above, so the order follows click price.

Vet businesses in Galway

The Central Statistics Office does not publish a business count for vets in Galway at this level, so this page shows none. It publishes business counts at this level only for broad industry sections, which mix vets with other businesses. That is a finding about the published statistics, not about how many vets work here.

Population: 85,910 (Galway city and suburbs, Co Galway). Source: CSO Census 2022, city and suburbs population (data.cso.ie).

Business counts are never compared across countries on this site: each country's statistics agency counts a different set of businesses.
