Three packages, three amounts, one date. Everything included is written here, and so is everything that costs extra. Further down, what websites cost elsewhere, so you compare with numbers rather than impressions.

What costs extra
Additional language
CHF 500
Beyond the languages in the package. Written, not machine-translated.
Page beyond the package
CHF 120
Beyond the package’s page count, before or after signature, at the same price.
Domain name
a few dozen francs a year
Registered in your name, paid by you, so that it is yours without discussion.
Photographer
not included
You supply the photos. If a photographer would help, I say so and you choose one.
Online shop, web application
outside the packages
That is not what I do. I tell you on the first call and, if I can, point you to someone who does.
After launch, if you want it
Socle89 CHF / month
Hosting, certificate, backups, security updates, an eye on uptime.
Suivi240 CHF / month
Socle, plus your changes for the month and a traffic report.
Croissance890 CHF / month
Suivi, plus ongoing SEO and new pages.
No lock-in. Without maintenance, the site stays online and belongs to you; you hand the rest to whoever you like.
What a website costs elsewhere
The ranges below are the ones I come across auditing small business websites every morning and reading the price lists others publish. They vary from city to city; the order of magnitude does not.
Site builders
CHF 15 to 40 a month
You do everything yourself on a template. No copywriting, no compliance, and you own neither the code nor, often, the content. The day you leave, you start from zero.
Freelancers
CHF 1,500 to 5,000
Highly variable. The amount depends on what is included, and it rarely is: copy, Google profile, legal pages and hosting often come as extras.
Agencies
CHF 8,000 to 30,000 and above
A workshop, then a quote, then meetings. The result is often good. The price is only known after the second meeting, and the deadline after the third.
Hallebardier
CHF 2,700, 5,800 or 9,500
Copy, compliance, Google profile, hosting configured and training included. The price is known before the first call, and so is the deadline.
Why a fixed price is possible
Because the scope is fixed: a number of pages, a number of languages, a deadline. What varies from one client to the next is the content, and the content comes from the thirty-minute call where you tell me about your trade. What does not vary is the work of shaping it.
Because one person does everything: design, copy, development, go-live. No project manager to pay, no scoping meeting, no agency margin.
Because the amounts are the same before and after signature. One more page costs CHF 120 on the day of the proposal and CHF 120 three weeks later.
Payment
50% deposit on signing the proposal, balance before go-live. Invoice in Swiss francs, with QR-bill for Switzerland and bank details for abroad, payable within 30 days. The site is yours once the balance is paid: domain, content, code.
Questions
How much does a website cost in Switzerland?
With me, CHF 2,700 for ten pages in one language, CHF 5,800 for fourteen pages in two languages, CHF 9,500 for twenty pages in three languages with ongoing SEO. Elsewhere, between a few dozen francs a month for a template you fill in yourself and several tens of thousands for an agency, with freelancers in between whose price depends on what is included.
How much does a website cost in the UK, Germany, Austria or Monaco with you?
Exactly the same. The invoice is in Swiss francs; your bank converts at the day’s rate. No country surcharge.
Why do you not do quotes?
Because three packages cover most cases, and what falls outside is priced in one call with the same units: CHF 120 per page, CHF 500 per language. A quote serves to hide a price until you are committed; mine is here.
Are there hidden fees?
No. What costs extra is listed on this page. The domain name is in your name and paid by you; it is the only amount that does not go through me.
What if I want more pages after launch?
CHF 120 per page, at the same price as before signature. In the Suivi or Croissance maintenance plans, the month’s changes are included.
Can I pay in instalments?
Two: 50% on signature, 50% before go-live. That is already payment in two instalments.
I only want to change my existing site. What do you offer?
Hourly work, CHF 150, on the site you already have: copy, pages, photos, form, speed, security. I give you an estimate in hours before starting, you approve it, and you pay only the hours done. No redesign, no commitment.
The amount is at the top of the page.
The rest fits in a thirty-minute call: your business, your competitors, and what a website can change. Or by phone, on +41 26 420 00 86.
