Switzerland, Geneva, Lausanne and Zurich
Website design for businesses in Switzerland.
Pixel Noir builds websites for self-employed professionals and SMEs in Switzerland, remotely, from Brussels. A showcase website to be found, or a website that takes your bookings and orders while you work. This page covers what changes when your business is in Switzerland: the remote process, data protection, invoicing and languages.
How a remote project works
01
You write to us
Your business, your town, what the website needs to do. Reply by email within 24 working hours.
02
We talk it through
By email, by message or by video call, whichever suits you. You then receive a fixed-price offer.
03
We build, you approve
Texts, photos, languages: you review and approve the website before it goes live.
04
Your website is live
On your .ch address if you wish. After that, opening hours, prices and photos are changed from your phone.
What changes for a Swiss business
Data protection (nFADP)
The website complies with the revised Federal Act on Data Protection, in force since September 2023: clear consent, clean forms, and customer data that stays yours.
An invoice without Belgian VAT
A service exported outside the European Union: invoiced without Belgian VAT, in euros, paid by international bank transfer. Your fiduciary confirms the effect on your taxes.
English, French, German
A website in your customers’ languages, each version declared to Google so that a visitor from Lausanne lands on French and a visitor from Zurich on German.
A .ch address
The website runs on the domain name of your choice. For Swiss customers, a .ch address builds trust.
Our reference in Switzerland
WK Haustechnik, Bassersdorf (canton of Zurich)
A plumbing and heating company. We delivered a website in three languages, German, French and English, live on wkhaustechnik.ch, and an assistant that reads its info@ inbox, sorts every email, recognises recurring contacts and flags leads and emergencies, all filed in Microsoft 365. The whole project was done remotely.

Frequently asked questions
Can an agency based in Brussels really build the website of a business in Geneva or Zurich?
Yes, and we already do. A website is designed, approved and put online remotely: we talk by email, by message or by video call, and you then run your website from your phone. Our client WK Haustechnik, in Bassersdorf near Zurich, never needed to meet us in person.
Is the website nFADP compliant?
Yes. The website and its forms are built to comply with the nFADP, the revised Federal Act on Data Protection in force since September 2023: clear consent, clean forms, and customer data that stays yours and that we hand back if you leave.
How does invoicing work for a Swiss business?
Pixel Noir is run by a Belgian company (Metropole Inv. SRL, BCE 0633.543.622). For a client in Switzerland, the service is invoiced without Belgian VAT, in euros, and paid by international bank transfer. The price is fixed in the offer before we start. For the effect on your taxes, your fiduciary confirms based on your situation.
Can you build a website in English, French and German?
Yes. The website is delivered in the languages your customers need, English, French, German, each version properly declared to Google so it shows the right language to the right visitor. The WK Haustechnik website is in German, French and English.
Can my website have a .ch address?
Yes. The website runs on the domain name of your choice, .ch included, like wkhaustechnik.ch.
