SEO Agency Zurich

Senior consultants, not account managers

You work directly with Adrian Dąbrowiecki and a small senior team. No hand-offs to juniors, no project layers. One call, one decision, in English or German.

Swiss German, Swiss French, Swiss Italian

Switzerland is one google.ch with three content markets. We write Swiss Standard German (Offerte, Velo, parkieren, no ß), adapt French for Romandie and Italian for Ticino, and set hreflang de-CH / fr-CH / it-CH so each version ranks in the right region.

Links and citations from Swiss sources

Backlinks that tell Google your business is Swiss: local.ch, search.ch, Moneyhouse, Gelbe Seiten, cantonal and trade associations, Swiss startup and industry media (startupticker.ch, Handelszeitung, Finews). No link schemes.

Visible in ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews

Zurich’s banking, legal and tech clients increasingly ask AI assistants for recommendations. We structure entities, FAQs and schema so your firm is the one cited. See our AI SEO service.

EU rates, CHF or EUR, no lock-in

Typically 50–70% below Zurich agency rates for the same senior work. Invoices in CHF or EUR, month-to-month cooperation, no termination fees, free audit and 90-day plan at the start.

One google.ch, three language markets

Around 62% of Swiss residents speak German, 23% French and 8% Italian (Swiss Federal Statistical Office). A Zurich company that only publishes in German leaves Geneva, Lausanne and Lugano to competitors, and a German-only hreflang set-up often means Google serves the wrong version. We plan the architecture (one .ch domain with /de/, /fr/, /it/ folders in most cases), write each version natively instead of translating, and track rankings per region. About 92% of Swiss searches run on Google (StatCounter), so google.ch and Google Maps are where the work happens.

Swiss Standard German is not German German

Swiss users search for ‘Offerte’ rather than ‘Angebot’, ‘Velo’ rather than ‘Fahrrad’, ‘Coiffeur’ rather than ‘Friseur’, ‘parkieren’, ‘Pendenzen’, ‘Natel’ and ‘Spital’, and they never type ß. A page written for Berlin reads as foreign in Zurich and ranks accordingly. We write Swiss Standard German, use Swiss spelling throughout (Strasse, Grösse), and keep terminology consistent across content, meta data and your Google Business Profile.

Kreise, business districts and the agglomeration

Zurich’s 12 Kreise and neighbouring communes shape local search. Customers look for ‘Zahnarzt Oerlikon’, ‘Anwalt Zürich Kreis 1’, ‘Physiotherapie Seefeld’, ‘Steuerberater Altstetten’ or ‘Kita Wollishofen’. We build service pages for the areas you actually serve (Altstadt and Bahnhofstrasse, Enge, Wiedikon, Langstrasse, Zürich-West and Hardbrücke, Oerlikon, Seefeld, Altstetten, Glattpark and Opfikon, Schlieren, Zug for crypto and fintech), each with unique content, and align the Business Profile service area. For firms around Paradeplatz, Europaallee, Prime Tower and The Circle at the airport, we target the location names people use in practice.

Industries where SEO pays back fastest in Zurich

Zurich’s economy is dominated by banking and wealth management, insurance and reinsurance, fintech and crypto (Zurich and Zug), legal and tax advisory, medtech and pharma, ETH spin-offs and software, luxury retail and hospitality. These sectors share very high Google Ads CPCs (CHF 15–60 for financial and legal terms) and high customer value: every organic lead is a measurable saving. Zurich is also the headquarters of Google’s largest engineering office outside the US, which makes local talent expensive and outsourced senior SEO particularly attractive.

How much does an SEO agency in Zurich cost?

Zurich agencies typically charge CHF 3,000–10,000 per month for small and mid-sized campaigns, with senior hours at CHF 180–250. As a Poland-based agency we deliver the same senior level at EU rates, usually 50–70% lower, invoiced in CHF or EUR. After the free audit you receive a fixed quote.

Do you need to be in Zurich to do SEO for my company?

No. Google ranks your website and Business Profile, not your agency’s address. We work remotely for clients in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, the UK and the US, meet online, and come to Zurich for strategy workshops when useful.

Do you write in Swiss German, French and Italian?

Yes. Content is written by native writers for de-CH, fr-CH and it-CH, briefed on Swiss terminology and spelling, and reviewed by the SEO lead. We also set hreflang so each language region sees the right version.

How long until we see results on google.ch?

Google Maps and Kreis-level keywords usually move within 2–4 months. Competitive ‘service + Zürich’ keywords in banking, legal or insurance need 6–12 months of consistent work. You get a 90-day plan with milestones before we start.

Can you help a German or international company enter the Swiss market?

Yes, this is a large part of our Zurich work. We decide between .ch domain and /ch/ folder, create Swiss German content that does not duplicate your German site, add French and Italian versions, build Swiss backlinks and set up Business Profiles for Swiss locations.

Do you work with Swiss data protection rules?

Yes. We set up analytics and consent in line with the revised Swiss FADP and GDPR, host dashboards in the EU, and sign a data processing agreement on request.
