## A site that works for you

Your website is often the first place a potential customer forms an opinion about your business. But just having a site isn't enough — **a good site works for you**: it reassures, it convinces, it generates leads. Even without an online store, your site must have a concrete reason for being.

**It must reflect who you really are** — and make people want to call you, write to you, or walk through your door.

At Mermio, we develop each showcase site **from A to Z**, with a solid technical foundation designed to last and evolve with your business. Whether you are a Swiss SME looking to establish your online credibility, or an agency needing a trusted technical partner, we adapt to your needs — not the other way around.

## What we build with you

### A site tailored to your activity

Developed in Laravel, a robust and mastered technology that ensures clean and easily upgradable code.

### Responsive design

Your site displays correctly on mobile, tablet, and desktop, without compromise.

### Integrated useful features

Contact forms, interactive map, social media.

### Careful technical SEO

Your site is built to be well-indexed from the start: structure, speed, tags.

### Management training

If you want to modify the content yourself, we explain how to do it.

### Hosting and maintenance

We can manage everything for you, or assist you if you prefer to keep control.

### nLPD compliance (optional)

Cookie management, privacy policy, consent: we handle this aspect with our certified partner **A-Track**, to ensure your site complies with Swiss data protection law.

## Ongoing support

And above all: **we remain available after delivery**. Evolving a feature, fixing a bug, adding a page — this is part of the support, with no unpleasant surprises on the bill.

## FAQ

**Q: Why develop a site in Laravel rather than with WordPress?**
A: Laravel is a professional PHP framework that offers a **clean, secure, and scalable architecture**. Unlike WordPress, which relies on third-party plugins that are often sources of vulnerabilities and slowdowns, a Laravel site is custom-built for your actual needs. This means controlled code, optimal performance, and simplified long-term maintenance.

**Q: Will I be able to modify the content of my site myself?**
A: Yes, absolutely. Each site comes with an **intuitive back-office** that allows you to modify your texts, images, and content independently. A **comprehensive training on administration** is included in the service so that you feel comfortable from day one.

**Q: Will my site be well ranked on Google?**
A: Yes. **Technical SEO is integrated from the design**: clean HTML structure, optimized tags, loading speed, mobile compatibility, and schema markup. Your site is built to be well ranked on Google from the moment it goes live, without relying on third-party plugins.

**Q: How long does it take to create my website?**
A: Generally, expect between **4 and 8 weeks** depending on the complexity of the project. This timeframe includes the phases of design, development, testing, and training. We will establish a realistic schedule together from the start, and keep you informed at every step.

**Q: Will my site comply with the Swiss nLPD?**
A: Compliance with the nLPD (Swiss Data Protection Act) is offered **optionally** and handled with our certified partner **A-Track**. This includes cookie management, the consent banner, and the privacy policy — so your site will be compliant without you having to worry about it.

**Q: What happens after the site is delivered?**
A: We don't disappear after delivery. **Post-delivery support is part of our service**: corrections, adding pages, functional evolutions — everything is managed transparently, with no unpleasant surprises on the invoice. We also offer hosting and maintenance packages if you want us to handle everything for you.
