Photography web development in Basel: FAQs

How much does a photography website cost in Basel?+

In Basel, a business website typically costs CHF 8,000 – CHF 25,000, while a custom web app runs CHF 30,000 – CHF 150,000. Agency day rates of CHF 130-220/hr are the main driver, followed by integrations and how much custom functionality you need. Tecklogist quotes photography projects from from CHF 999 at a fixed price.

How long does it take to build a photography website?+

A business website usually takes 3–6 weeks; a custom web app takes 8–20 weeks. Delays almost always come from late content, unclear scope or third-party integrations, so agree those before work starts.

Which platform is best for photography websites?+

The usual options are Squarespace / Format, WordPress + gallery plugin, Webflow and Pixieset / ShootProof. The right one depends on how often your team edits content, which systems the site must connect to and your budget, so be wary of any Basel agency that recommends the same platform for every client.

What should I ask a photography web developer in Basel before hiring?+

Ask about genuinely fast image loading through modern formats (WebP/AVIF) and responsive sizing, not raw uncompressed uploads; a gallery-first homepage that leads with the best work within one scroll, not a wall of text before the first image; client proofing and digital delivery built in or integrated (Pixieset, ShootProof, Pic-Time), so clients view and select images without a separate clunky tool. Then ask for two or three live photography websites they built, who will actually work on yours, and what support looks like after launch.

Why is Tecklogist ranked first on this list?+

This list is published by Tecklogist, and we rank ourselves first because photography websites are core work for us: fixed prices, fixed timelines and code you own. The other Basel agencies are ordered by the photography evidence in their public profiles, and none of them pay to appear.
