Website subscription · Zurich
Your Business Website, Built and Looked After for CHF 49 a Month
We design it, write it, host it in Switzerland and keep it secure. You get a website that brings in enquiries, without a CHF 10,000 invoice up front and without a site nobody touches after launch.
- No setup fee
- Live in about 7 days
- Domain and content stay yours
A website subscription from Clear Design Experts is a custom business website that we design, write, host with the Swiss provider Cyon AG and keep updated, for one fixed fee: CHF 49 a month for one language and up to 10 pages, CHF 69 a month for two languages. There’s no setup fee, billing is annual, and your domain and content always belong to you. Content changes cost CHF 50 per request; security updates and repairs after updates are included.
If one of these sounds familiar, keep reading
“CHF 12,000 for ten pages, plus maintenance”
You asked an agency for a simple company website and got a number that would pay for a car. Then a second line for hosting and a care plan.
Prices from 2021, a team member who left
The website was finished once and never touched again. Every change means finding the old agency, waiting a week and paying an hourly rate.
It looks fine, but nobody finds it
You built it yourself in an evening. Google doesn’t show it for the searches that matter, and nobody checks whether the forms still arrive.
All three have the same cause. A website gets sold as a one-off project, but it only earns money if someone keeps it current, fast and secure for years. The subscription is built around that second part. We stay responsible for your website after launch, because that’s the only way we keep earning from it.
What you get for CHF 49 a month
A custom design
Built for your business and your customers, not a template with your logo swapped in. Up to 10 pages; blog posts don’t count.
Copy that’s written for you
We write the texts from a conversation with you. You don’t start from a blank page; you correct ours.
Swiss hosting
Shared hosting with Cyon AG, SSL certificate and daily backups. No separate hosting invoice.
Updates and repairs
WordPress, plugin and security updates are installed for you. If an update breaks something, we fix it at no charge.
Found on Google
Clean structure, fast pages, meta data, sitemap, Search Console and your Google Business Profile, set up from day one.
Enquiries that arrive
Contact forms delivered to your inbox, a cookie banner and a privacy setup that follows the Swiss nFADP.
Need a second language? The Bilingual plan adds a complete second version, professionally translated, with the technical details search engines need to show the right language to the right person. It costs CHF 69 a month in total. At a traditional agency, a second language often adds half the project price again.

From first call to live website
A 30-minute call
You tell us what you do, who your customers are and what they ask before they buy. We tell you honestly whether the subscription fits. No obligation.
We write and design
You get a first version with real texts, not “lorem ipsum”. You mark what’s wrong; we fix it. Most clients need one round, some two.
Launch
If your content is ready, an Essential website can be live in about 7 days. Bilingual sites typically take two to three weeks, including translation.
After launch
Updates, backups and repairs run in the background. When something changes in your business, you send a change request: CHF 50, done.
What it costs compared with buying
“Renting is always more expensive in the end” is true for phones. For websites it rarely is, because a purchased site keeps sending invoices after launch: hosting, updates, a care plan, every text change. Add them up and five years look like this:
What you’ve paid after 5 years
CHF, excl. VAT, 10-page website in one language
Agency: CHF 9,600 build, then CHF 2,600 a year for hosting, maintenance and 6 hours of changes. Freelancer: CHF 5,000 build, then CHF 1,600 a year. Subscription: CHF 588 a year plus six change requests at CHF 50.
Try your own numbers. Set the slider to the number of changes you’d expect in a typical year: new prices, a new service, a team photo, updated opening hours.
Agency estimate: hosting CHF 720 a year, care plan CHF 1,000 (CHF 1,400 for two languages), changes at CHF 150 an hour, one hour per request. Excl. VAT.
When the subscription is the wrong choice
We’d rather lose a sale than a client after a year. So here’s when we’ll tell you to do something else:
- You need an online shop. Shops have payment, stock, VAT and shipping to handle. We build them, but on an individual quote, not in the subscription.
- You need bookings, member logins or a custom web app. Same answer: that’s a project, and it should be priced as one.
- You want one page and will never change it. A simple one-pager from a freelancer, hosted cheaply, costs less. Just know that nobody will update it.
- You already have an in-house developer. Then you’re paying for what you already have.
For everyone else, meaning firms whose website has to explain what they do and make it easy to get in touch, the subscription is usually the cheapest way to have a good website that stays good. Fiduciaries, consultancies, practices, trades, local service companies and international firms in Zurich, Zug and Basel are the clients we work with most.

“How can it cost only CHF 49?”
It’s the first question on almost every call, so here’s the straight answer. Three costs that sit in every agency quote don’t exist here. We don’t spend days on pitches, because our prices are public. There’s no account manager between you and the person building your site. And we don’t start every website from zero; we build on a technical base we maintain all the time, so your site gets the improvements we make for everyone.
The other half of the answer is the model. An agency earns at launch; after that your website is a cost to them. We earn only if you stay. If your website stops bringing enquiries in year two, you cancel, and we’ve lost money. That’s a better guarantee than any clause we could write into a contract.
Questions we hear before people sign
What does the website subscription cost?
Essential, one language and up to 10 pages: CHF 49 a month or CHF 588 a year. Bilingual: CHF 69 a month or CHF 828 a year. Growth, two languages plus 8 blog posts a month: CHF 199 a month or CHF 2,388 a year. Blog writing for Essential or Bilingual: CHF 199 a month for one post per week. Excl. VAT, no setup fee. Content changes cost CHF 50 per request.
Can I buy just a website, without a subscription?
Yes. Website only is a one-time fixed price, excl. VAT: CHF 299 for a one-pager with up to 5 sections, privacy policy and imprint included; CHF 100 per extra page; CHF 50 per extra language plus CHF 100 per page in that language; an online shop CHF 500 plus CHF 100 per product. Texts, translations, images and all other media are supplied by you. You own the website; hosting and domain run in your name, and changes after final approval cost CHF 150 per page.
Can the price change?
Not during the period you have paid for: your price is fixed for that period. We keep the right to adjust prices for the next period. If your price goes up, you can cancel at the end of your current paid period.
How are the blog posts written?
With AI. We use AI to research topics around the searches your customers make and to write the posts, in one or both languages. The style is natural and insightful, written for a Swiss audience rather than generic filler, and every post is formatted, linked to your service pages and published for you. You can read every post and ask for changes.
Can I change the design later?
Yes. The plan includes a yearly design refresh: once a year, if you wish, we update colours, fonts, images and the look of sections, so the site stays current. Your pages and content stay in place.
Who owns the website?
Your domain and all your content (texts, images, logo) are yours at all times. If you leave, you get everything, and we make a fair one-time offer if you want to take the website itself with you.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Billing is annual, and you can cancel for the end of any plan year.
How fast can my website go live?
If your content is ready, an Essential website can be live in about 7 days. Bilingual sites typically take two to three weeks including translation.
What counts as a change request?
Anything that changes the content: new or updated text, prices, images, opening hours, a new team member or a new page within your plan. Each request is CHF 50. Updates, security fixes and repairs after updates are included and never billed.
Is SEO included?
The foundations are: structure, speed, meta data, sitemap, Search Console and your Google Business Profile. Ongoing SEO work, such as new content and links, is a separate service from CHF 500 a month.
Isn’t renting more expensive in the end?
Only if a purchased website is never maintained. Including hosting, updates and changes, a typical agency project costs about CHF 22,600 over five years; the Essential subscription about CHF 4,440 with six change requests a year.
