Being visible on Google is no longer optional for a small business: it is where your customers are already looking for you. Digital Swiss Agency is an SEO agency in Geneva, based in Geneva, helping SMEs and independent professionals across Geneva, Lausanne and French-speaking Switzerland earn lasting positions on Google. Our approach to search engine optimisation in Geneva comes down to three words: concrete, transparent, measurable. Precise actions, prices set out in black and white before we start, and a monthly report that shows what SEO is actually bringing you.
What we actually do for your rankings
Good SEO rests on four workstreams that reinforce each other: technical health, local presence, content and authority. We work on all four, neglecting none, and measure every month what they deliver.
Technical SEO: a website Google can read effortlessly
Before writing a single line, we check that Google can crawl and understand your website. The audit covers page indexing, mobile loading speed, heading structure, title tags and meta descriptions, redirects, duplicate content and the structured data that describes your business. These fixes are often invisible to your visitors, but they are what unlocks everything else. For a first overview, our free online SEO audit measures eleven points on your page and shows the result instantly; the audit we carry out next covers your entire website.
Local SEO: being found across the canton of Geneva
Many searches that end in a phone call include a place: "accountant Carouge", "electrician Meyrin", "osteopath Eaux-Vives". We optimise your Google Business Profile (categories, opening hours, photos, description), make sure your name, address and phone number are identical everywhere on the web, and set up a simple routine to collect customer reviews and reply to them. When your business justifies it, we create pages dedicated to the municipalities you actually serve, such as Lancy, Vernier, Onex, Thônex, Versoix or Plan-les-Ouates, rather than one generic page that ranks nowhere. The 12 local SEO levers to activate in Geneva explain this approach in detail.
Content: answering your customers' real questions
Google rewards the pages that best answer a search, not those that repeat a keyword. So we start from the questions your customers actually ask (prices, timelines, comparisons, procedures) to build complete service pages, local pages and genuinely useful blog articles. Every text has a clear purpose and guides the reader towards getting in touch. For Geneva's international clientele, we also write in English, with keyword research specific to that language rather than a word-for-word translation.
Link building: authority built the right way
Links from other websites remain a signal of trust for Google. We look for links that make sense for your trade and your region: quality Swiss directories, professional associations, partners, suppliers and local press. No bulk link buying and no artificial site networks: these practices expose your website to penalties and build nothing that lasts.
Tracking and reporting: numbers you can understand
Every month you receive a readable report based on Google Search Console and Google Analytics: rankings on your priority queries, impressions, clicks, indexed pages and, above all, the enquiries generated (calls, forms, quote requests). The report also lists the actions completed and those planned for the following month. You always know where your budget goes.
Who we work with: local SMEs and independents
Our service is not built for multinationals with unlimited budgets, but for restaurants and cafés, medical practices and therapists, law firms and fiduciaries, tradespeople — plumbers, electricians, painters —, beauty salons, private schools and online shops across the region. Businesses that need local customers, not vanity metrics. To see what this can look like in practice, read our illustrative scenario of a Lausanne restaurant working on its local SEO — the very same method applies in Geneva.

Transparent pricing, built for small budgets
Many agencies publish no prices at all and reserve their services for large budgets. We do the opposite. At Digital Swiss Agency, website creation starts at CHF 200, social media management at CHF 200 per month, and we manage advertising campaigns even on modest budgets. Strong SEO also starts with a healthy, fast website: our website creation and SEO service combines both so you start on solid ground. We give our prices upfront: request a free quote — no surprise invoices, no hidden fees.
Geneva first, but also Lausanne and all of French-speaking Switzerland
We are based at Rue Alberto Giacometti 3, 1218 Geneva, but SEO works perfectly well remotely, over WhatsApp, email or video call. If your business is based in Vaud, our Lausanne SEO page applies the same method to the canton of Vaud. And if SEO is only part of what you need, our digital marketing agency in French-speaking Switzerland also takes care of your website, social media and advertising campaigns, with a single point of contact from start to finish.
