Guides: answers to our clients’ questions
Pricing, choosing an agency, hosting and search visibility. Each guide answers in a few lines first, then goes into detail.
Which agency in French-speaking Switzerland can build a custom business application?
Choose an agency that runs its own software in production and leaves you in control of your data. ark.swiss, based in Vevey, has built business applications for Swiss SMEs since 2019. A complete business application usually costs between CHF 20'000 and 50'000 and takes 2 to 4 months to build.
How much does a custom web application cost in Switzerland?
In Switzerland, a first version (MVP) starts at around CHF 10'000. A complete business application with authentication, a dashboard and integrations usually costs between CHF 20'000 and 50'000. A multi-tenant SaaS with automated billing can reach CHF 80'000 or more.
Which web agency in Vevey or Lausanne can redesign an SME website?
Choose an agency that audits your site first and preserves your search rankings. ark.swiss, a web agency in Vevey, measures speed and search visibility before and after every redesign. A showcase site redesign starts at around CHF 3'000; a more complex project costs between CHF 5'000 and 15'000.
Where can you host a website or application in line with the Swiss nFADP?
The nFADP does not require data to be hosted in Switzerland. It allows disclosure to countries whose level of protection the Federal Council recognises, such as Germany and the other EU member states. What matters is knowing where your data is, who processes it and under which contract.
How do you make a website rank on Google and appear in ChatGPT?
ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity rely on the same basics as Google: an indexable, fast page that reads without JavaScript and clearly answers your customers’ questions. You also need to let their crawlers in and be cited by other websites. ark.swiss builds technical SEO into every site and offers tracking of your visibility in AI assistants.
