Web agency in Geneva: prices, services and what you’re really paying for

Building a website in Geneva can cost CHF 1,500, or several tens of thousands of francs. And no, that’s not necessarily because a developer charges far too much for their coffee. The price mainly depends on what you’re asking your website to do, the level of customisation expected, and everything happening behind the screen.

In 2026, the prices displayed by Geneva agencies cover a very wide range. At Wecode, for example, a landing page starts at CHF 799, a brochure website at CHF 1,499 and an e-commerce website at CHF 3,999. But these figures only really make sense once you understand what’s included behind each service.

A web agency doesn’t just sell you a website

This is probably the first thing to understand before comparing two quotes.

A website is a bit like a house. You can buy four walls and a door and call it a house. Technically, why not. But if you want to welcome visitors, you’ll need to think about electricity, plumbing, fittings… and ideally stop the roof falling in on your guests.

It’s the same for a website.

A web agency in Geneva can work across several levels: strategy, UX/UI design, web development, SEO, performance, security, content, digital advertising or maintenance.

The price of a project therefore reflects all of this work, not just the number of pages visible in your browser.

How much does it cost to build a website in Geneva?

At Wecode, prices are published openly so companies can get an initial idea before even requesting a quote. A landing page starts at CHF 799, a brochure website at CHF 1,499, a WordPress Starter at CHF 1,999, and an e-commerce website at CHF 3,999.

For a more complex project, prices naturally go up. An advanced WordPress build starts at CHF 3,999, and bespoke development is available from CHF 149 an hour.

These prices aren’t a universal price list for every company, then. They’re more of a starting point for building a realistic budget.

Brochure website: to showcase your business

The brochure website remains the classic choice for SMEs, freelancers and independent professionals. Its goal is simple: explain who you are, present your services and turn a visitor into a contact.

At Wecode, prices start at CHF 1,499, and include a responsive approach, SEO optimisation and features designed to encourage enquiries.

E-commerce: when your website becomes a shop

An e-commerce site obviously requires more moving parts: a product catalogue, payments, orders, stock, delivery, customer accounts and sometimes connections to other tools.

At Wecode, building an e-commerce website starts at CHF 3,999, with various technologies available such as WooCommerce, PrestaShop or Magento depending on the project.

And after the website is built?

A beautiful website that nobody can find is a bit like opening a shop in the middle of a forest without putting up a sign. Very pretty. Very quiet. Very few customers.

That’s where search engine optimisation (SEO) comes in.

At Wecode, an advanced SEO audit or an SEO optimisation service starts at CHF 999. The goal is in particular to improve the website’s structure, content, performance and visibility in search engines.

Acquisition can also come through digital advertising, notably Google Ads or social media campaigns. The website build budget and the advertising budget are then two different things: one builds your tool, the other sends traffic to it.

Design, UX and development: the invisible parts of the budget

Two websites can have exactly ten pages and show two completely different prices.

Why? Because the number of pages doesn’t measure a project’s complexity.

A fully custom interface, a carefully designed user journey, animations, a CRM connection, an API, a client area or a specific business feature all require far more design and development work.

At Wecode, UI/UX mock-ups start at CHF 399 and a UX audit at CHF 499. For highly specific features, bespoke development is billed from CHF 149/hour.

In other words: a website can look simple and be extremely complex to build.

Should you choose the cheapest web agency?

Not necessarily. And that’s probably one of the best pieces of advice you can be given.

The right instinct is instead to compare the scope of the service. Is SEO included? Is it responsive? Are performance optimisations included? Backups? Security? Maintenance? Is the design custom? Who writes the content? Who handles the launch?

A CHF 2,000 quote might look cheaper than a CHF 5,000 quote. But if the first one then needs CHF 2,500 worth of add-ons to get the same features, the comparison becomes far less impressive.

At Wecode, transparency is part of the service

Wecode has chosen to publish its prices for web development, digital communication and design openly. The agency now works with SMEs across French-speaking Switzerland on projects ranging from a simple landing page to the development of more complex digital solutions.

The idea is simple: you should understand what you’re buying before you sign. The published price serves as the basis for the quote, and your specific needs are then discussed with you.

Because ultimately, choosing a web agency in Geneva shouldn’t feel like a treasure hunt with a hidden quote at the end.

Do you have a website, web development, SEO or digital communication project? Wecode supports you from initial thinking through to launch, and then as your project evolves. The agency also offers design, digital advertising, maintenance and bespoke development services.

And if you don’t yet know exactly what you need, that’s fine. That’s precisely a web agency’s role: to help you define the right solution before you start building it.
