Dubai

Web design in Dubai with proper Arabic — not a translated English site.

Built for Dubai consultancies, retail boutiques, and lifestyle brands — bilingual English / Arabic, RTL-correct, billed monthly in AED, no setup fee.

01Dubai context

Most Dubai websites get Arabic wrong.

Walk Business Bay or JLT and the bilingual websites you'll find share a tell — the English version is lavish, the Arabic version is a Google-Translate copy with broken right-to-left typography, mirrored icons, and English numerals embedded in Arabic sentences. To an Arabic-reading customer it reads as careless. To a free-zone licensing officer reviewing your trade documents, it reads as not-quite-Dubai.

The agency answer is to charge twice — once for the English site, once for an Arabic 'translation' that is rarely localised properly. Custom builds run AED 30 000–120 000 up front, plus a retainer. For a five-person consultancy in Dubai Silicon Oasis or a boutique on Beach Road, that money is better spent acquiring a customer.

We build bilingual EN/AR sites where Arabic is a first-class citizen — RTL layouts, mirrored navigation where appropriate, Arabic numerals (or Hindu-Arabic numerals) per locale, an Arabic-language copywriter on the brief. One monthly fee in AED covers design, hosting, the .ae or .com domain, ongoing updates, and the language stack your local audience expects.

02Dubai businesses we typically build for

Three patterns we see often in Dubai.

Free-zone consultancies

Consulting firms with EN/AR client decks

A bilingual positioning page, case studies that work for both Western HQ procurement and GCC family-office LPs, structured-data partner badges, and a contact route that produces a real meeting — not a Calendly link nobody uses.

Retail & lifestyle

Boutiques and concept stores selling cross-emirate

Bilingual product pages, AED-priced checkouts via Telr or Network International, courier integrations that handle Dubai-to-Abu-Dhabi same-day, and an Instagram-aware photography pipeline that doesn't require a creative director.

F&B & lifestyle services

Restaurants, salons, and lifestyle bookings

Bilingual menus or service lists, opening-hours awareness for Ramadan and public holidays, WhatsApp-aware contact routes, and structured data that gets you into Google's local results without a separate listing-management vendor.

04Dubai questions

What Dubai owners ask before signing up.

Will the Arabic version use proper RTL, or just translated text in an LTR layout?
Proper RTL. The Arabic version mirrors layout, navigation, icons, and breadcrumbs; numerals follow locale convention; the copy is written by an Arabic copywriter, not run through Google Translate from the English source.
Can you take payments through Telr or Network International, not just Stripe?
Yes. Commerce plan integrates Telr, Network International, and PayTabs alongside Stripe, so a Dubai retailer can accept AED locally and USD/EUR from international customers without juggling two checkouts.
Is the site set up correctly for our trade-licence requirements (free-zone or onshore)?
Yes. We surface trade-licence number and registered address in the footer per UAE requirements, and the structure handles disclaimers required by free zones (DIFC, ADGM, Silicon Oasis). Send us the licence at the brief stage; we set it once.
How does the site handle Ramadan hours and public-holiday changes?
Opening hours are editable by email — you send us the Ramadan or Eid timing, we update the structured-data block and the visible hours. Google's local snippet picks up the change within hours.
