Landscapers and builders
Garden design, groundworks, renovation, swimming pools: before-and-after photos, the villages you cover and a quote form that asks only for the essentials.
Your website in Douvaine
and across the Bas-Chablais.
Between Thonon and Geneva, Bas-Chablais businesses serve a growing residential population. We design clear, fast, low-maintenance websites for them, built to rank in local search.
Between Thonon and Geneva.
Every year the Bas-Chablais welcomes new residents, often families working in Geneva. For them, everything is found online: the tradesperson for the house, the medical practice, the Saturday-night restaurant.
Many local businesses are teams of just a few people: building trades, landscapers, personal services. They have no time to manage a complicated website. What they need is a simple site that works on its own and can be updated in minutes.
Along the lakeshore, from Yvoire to Excenevex, summer visitors add to the mix: restaurants, accommodation and water sports need to be visible at the right moment.
Who we work with in the Bas-Chablais.
From Veigy-Foncenex to Sciez, mostly small outfits, short on time rather than ideas.
Family services
Childcare, tutoring, home help, personal trainers: a site that reassures, explains how things work and makes getting in touch simple.
Lakeside restaurants and activities
Yvoire, Nernier, Excenevex, Sciez: restaurants, paddle board hire, beaches and accommodation, much sought after in summer by day visitors.
Health and wellbeing
Osteopaths, physiotherapists, practitioners: specialisms, directions, an online booking link and practical information for new residents.

Our advice for the Bas-Chablais.
A growing residential area, where newcomers choose their providers online.
Reaching new residents
Every year, families settle between Douvaine and Sciez without knowing anyone. They search for everything on Google: “landscaper near me”, “osteopath Douvaine”. The top map results collect most of the calls. A complete Google profile with recent photos and reviews, plus a site that names your village and its neighbours, remain the two most effective levers for a small business.
A site that runs without you
For a sole trader or a small team, updating a website always comes after the jobs. So we design sites that stay accurate with no intervention: no dated news on the home page, lasting information, and simple areas to edit when you need to. If you would rather hand it over, we take care of the updates.
Before and after: the best proof
In gardening, renovation or fit-out, nothing convinces like a before-and-after photo. Organise your projects by type of work and by village: “timber decking in Messery”, “garden in Chens-sur-Léman”. These pages serve both the hesitant customer and your local SEO, because they answer precise searches.
Summer by the lake
From Yvoire to Excenevex, the summer months concentrate much of the tourist trade. Visitors often decide on the day, on their phone. A site that loads fast, a Google profile with accurate summer hours and a button to book or call are worth more than a beautiful gallery that is slow to appear.

Frequently asked questions.
Web agency Douvaine: answers to the questions we are asked.
Do you work in the lakeside villages (Sciez, Excenevex, Messery)?
Yes, throughout the Bas-Chablais, from Sciez to Veigy-Foncenex.
How soon can I have my website?
For a tradesperson’s or shop’s showcase site, 10–15 days from our first conversation, if your photos are ready. We send you a list of what to gather right at the start.
I have no time to look after a website. Is that a problem?
No: the site is designed to need very little upkeep. You can leave the updates to us, or make them yourself in a few minutes.
I have no photos of my work: is that a problem?
No. We can start with a few images, and we show you how to photograph your next jobs with an ordinary phone: light, framing, before and after. The site then grows with each new project.
Do I need a website if I already have a Facebook page?
A Facebook page does not replace a website: it rarely shows up on Google, you do not control it, and many customers never open it. Your site, linked to your Google profile, remains your main address; social media points back to it.
A local web designer or a studio: what is the difference?
An independent web designer can build a very good site. Just check that they also handle the copy, local SEO and your Google profile. With us, those topics are part of the method, with one point of contact from start to finish.
Can a website bring me customers from Geneva?
Yes, if you work in Switzerland: the site states your areas and terms clearly, and your pages answer searches made from Geneva.
Can you take over the site a friend made for me?
Yes. We look at what is useful, keep the copy and photos and rebuild a faster site, preserving the URLs that already have a place on Google.
Can you come to Douvaine?
Yes: the Thonon studio is around twenty minutes away. Our first conversation can happen at your place or by video call.
