Web Design in the Canton of Schwyz

The price depends mainly on scope: number of pages, features, and whether the copy already exists. A simple company website with three to five pages starts at around CHF 800. Add custom design, several service areas and SEO foundations and the range is typically CHF 3,000 to 8,000. An online store starts at about CHF 1,200. What moves the price most isn't design wishes but content: if copy and images are missing and we create them, the effort grows noticeably. We only name a figure once we know what's involved – anything else would be guesswork. In an initial conversation we clarify that in twenty minutes.

For a manageable company website we plan four to six weeks from the kick-off meeting; for smaller projects it's often only two to three. The biggest time factor, in our experience, is you: approving copy, supplying images, giving feedback. When that content is ready it moves considerably faster. The sequence is always the same: first clarify structure and content, then design, then build, then a testing phase where you go through everything at your own pace. Only then do we go live. For an online store or booking system add two to four weeks, because payments, shipping rules and order flows need testing.

Yes, and in most cases it makes sense. Very few companies have the time to write up their services so that outsiders understand them. We hold a conversation in which you explain what you do and for whom – the copy comes out of that. You read it back and correct anything that isn't right. What matters here: the copy is written from the start with the search terms in mind that your customers in Schwyz actually use. Adding keywords afterwards rarely works well and usually reads awkwardly. We also revise existing content where the substance is there.

Yes. Text, images and simple pages should be changeable without us – we set up the admin area so it can be operated without technical knowledge. At handover we go through the steps together and you get a short written guide for the most common tasks. What we take on are structural changes, new features and technical adjustments. And if you ever lose the appetite for maintenance or something goes wrong, we're reachable without you needing an ongoing contract. Domain, content and access credentials are yours in any case.

Depending on the project: WordPress, Shopify, or a custom build using modern web technologies such as Next.js. WordPress works well for business websites, Shopify for selling, and a custom build when load time, SEO and an individual design are the deciding factors.

Yes, and for a business in Schwyz it's often the single biggest lever. Local searches carry high purchase intent: someone typing "Schwyz" into the search box doesn't want to read, they want to hire. Concretely we look at three things. First, page structure and copy that bring the location and the service together without sounding forced. Second, your Google Business Profile, which many businesses never fully complete – yet it decides how you appear in the map results. Third, consistent contact details across the web, because Google matches name, address and phone number. We also cover Brunnen and Einsiedeln and the surrounding communities.

Less than most people think. At the start we need a list of your services, your contact details and an idea of who you want to reach. If you have a logo, photos or existing copy, bring them – it's not essential. Photos we can arrange, copy we write. What helps are two or three websites you like, and two or three you don't. That usually tells us more about your taste than any description. The rest we structure together in the initial conversation. If you're unsure whether your material is enough, just send what you have and we'll tell you what's missing.

Yes. After launch we stay involved for the first weeks anyway, because that's when real visitors arrive and it becomes clear where something snags. After that you can choose between two routes. Either you get in touch when something comes up – we bill by effort and there's no base fee. Or you take a maintenance package with regular updates, security checks, backups and a set allowance for changes. For simple company websites the first option is usually enough; for stores and sites with ongoing SEO work the package pays off. What you won't get is a contract with a notice period for something you don't need.
