English and Arabic
Right-to-left layouts, Arabic typography and a language switcher that opens the matching page, not the home page.
Website design in Dubai for a business that needs the phone to ring.
We design the site around what it must do: win trust, answer questions and move a visitor to WhatsApp, a booking or a form. Bilingual, quick on mobile, and clear about price.

Purpose first
Every page has a job
A business website is not a brochure. Before we draw anything, we ask what a visitor should do and what stops them. For a clinic it might be booking a first visit. For a consultancy it is a credible enquiry. For a trading company it is a quote request. Each page is designed around one clear action, with the proof and answers that make that action easy.
- A single primary action per page, repeated sensibly
- Proof placed where doubt appears, using only material you can verify
- Pricing or price guidance shown where your market expects it
- Plain language, written for the buyer rather than the industry
Built for Dubai
The details local visitors notice
02
WhatsApp, done properly
Click-to-chat buttons with a pre-filled message per page, so you know what the lead was looking at.
03
Bookings and forms
Appointment requests, calendar booking or quote forms, sent to the right person with spam protection.
04
Mobile first
Most visits will be on a phone. We design the small screen first and test on real devices.
05
Trust signals
Licence details, address, team and policies placed clearly, because buyers here check them.
06
Plain pricing
Where it suits your business, we show from-prices or packages so visitors qualify themselves.
Found and fast
SEO foundations and speed, included
A design that nobody finds does not help. Every site we build has clean heading structure, unique titles and descriptions, schema markup, a sitemap, redirects from your old URLs and Google Analytics 4 set up. We also keep pages light, because slow mobile pages lose visitors before they read a word.
- One page per service or location you want to rank for
- Local business schema and a Google Business Profile checklist
- Image compression and lazy loading built in
- Lighthouse report shared at launch
Examples by business type
The same method, shaped by who you serve
A professional services firm needs credibility and clear service pages, with a short route to a consultation. A clinic or studio needs a booking flow that works on a phone with one hand. A trading or industrial company needs a catalogue of capabilities and a quote form that captures the right details. Our design studies, such as a corporate services firm, show how structure changes with the goal.
- Services firms: service pages, team, process and a consultation form
- Clinics and studios: booking, location, opening hours and policies
- Trading companies: capability pages, downloads and a quote request
Choosing the platform
When WordPress is right and when Shopify is
We build on both, so the advice is not tied to one answer.
| Your need | WordPress | Shopify |
|---|---|---|
| Services, enquiries, bookings | Best fit | Possible, less natural |
| Selling a few products | WooCommerce works | Simple and reliable |
| Selling a large catalogue | Needs more upkeep | Best fit |
| Content-heavy site, many pages | Best fit | Limited structure |
| Checkout, payments, inventory | Plugins to assemble | Built in |
| Editing by a non-technical team | Strong with custom blocks | Strong for products |
| Typical start price | AED 3,950 | AED 4,950 |

Process
A clear route from brief to launch
Most business sites take 2 to 4 weeks. Custom designs and sites with bookings or a shop take up to 8.
- Day 1 to 3
Brief and sitemap
We agree the goal, the pages and the actions, and confirm the tier and fixed price.
- Week 1
Content
You send copy and images, or we shape them with you. Real content before design avoids rework.
- Weeks 1 to 2
Design
Home and key pages in desktop and mobile. One round of structured feedback is built in.
- Weeks 2 to 4
Build and connect
Development, forms, WhatsApp, bookings, analytics and redirects on a private staging link.
- Launch
Test and go live
Speed, mobile and form tests, then launch, a team walkthrough and a 30-day fix window.
Who we are not for
When a freelancer or a template is the better call.
A fair view, including where we are the wrong choice.
01
Budgets under about AED 2,500
A website builder or a freelancer fits better. Our cheapest tier starts at AED 3,950.
02
Simple one-page sites you will manage alone
A freelancer or a template is a fair choice if the site is small and you are happy to maintain it.
03
Shops with hundreds of products
That is an online store, not a company site. See our Shopify and ecommerce pages instead.
04
Anyone who wants a ranking guarantee
No honest studio can promise Google positions. We build the foundations and you track the results.
Pricing
Fixed prices, excluding 5% VAT
Under AED 20,000: 50% to start, 50% at launch. Above that: 30%, 40%, 30%.

Questions
Answers before you call.
Prices are in AED and exclude 5% VAT.
Our business sites start at AED 3,950, custom designs at AED 9,950 and sites with bookings or a shop at AED 22,000, all excluding 5% VAT. Other agencies range widely, so compare what is included, such as Arabic, speed testing and ownership.
Two to four weeks for the business tier, up to eight for custom designs with bookings or a shop. The biggest variable is how quickly we receive your copy and images.
It depends on your customers. Many Dubai businesses serve a mixed audience, and an Arabic version builds trust and finds extra searchers. We can launch in English and add Arabic later, if the structure is built for it from the start.
Yes. We add click-to-chat buttons with a message tailored to each page, and booking forms or calendar integration. If you want automatic replies, our WhatsApp assistant starts from AED 1,450.
Yes. We build with an editor your team can use for text, images and new pages, and we run a short training session at launch.
We cannot guarantee rankings, and anyone who does is overpromising. We build clean structure, speed, schema and metadata, and can support you with local SEO from AED 1,750 a month.
WordPress suits services, content and enquiries. Shopify suits selling products at volume. The comparison table above shows how we decide, and we will give you a straight recommendation on the first call.
Often yes. Instagram and Google Business help people find you, but a site you own shows services, prices and proof in one place and takes enquiries on your terms. A small business site starts at AED 3,950. Check any licence needs with DET.
