TattooNOW

TattooNOW is a Tattoo Shop in Easthampton, MA, located at 112 Cottage St. The business operates as a technology and marketing network for the tattoo industry, providing websites, online booking systems, search engine optimization, and consulting services to studios and artists. Since 1998, the company has built infrastructure for tattooers, starting with early client websites and hand-built touchscreen kiosks. By 2000, this work was consolidated under the TattooNOW.com brand, which functions as a directory for finding tattoo artists. The network currently includes over 984 verified tattoo studios and more than 1,051 active artists, supported by a library of over 32,922 tattoo images. The platform offers custom websites with galleries and Instagram sync, digital consent and waiver tools, and social media automation.

The company’s history traces back to 1998, when founders Gabe Ripley and Sean O'Hara began creating technology for shops that often lacked basic digital presence. Their earliest client site, darksidetattoo.com, was registered in 1998. The business describes itself as a group of tattoo industry professionals who learned web technology, rather than a web agency that discovered tattooing. The mission is to help tattooing leave a positive impact by ensuring artist work is found and understood online. The network emphasizes that every site is a real working business and every artist is verified, with photos representing actual pieces by artists currently taking new clients.

TattooNOW is situated on Cottage Street, about a short walk from Holyoke Street and Maple Elementary School. The location is also near the Marigold Theater, the Easthampton Post Office, and the Easthampton Community Center, all within a few hundred meters of the office.

TattooNOW holds a perfect 5.00 rating based on customer reviews. The business has been serving the tattoo community for over two decades, maintaining a network that connects collectors with verified artists across the country.
