Web development for Dubai and UAE businesses
We build websites and web applications for Dubai and UAE businesses that load quickly on mobile networks, work properly in Arabic and English, and are easy for your team to update. That ranges from a company website with a content management system to customer portals and booking platforms.

- SEO-ready structure

Websites vs web applications
A company website presents your business and generates enquiries: service pages, case studies, a blog, and contact forms, managed through a CMS. A web application does work for your customers or staff: logins, bookings, quotes, payments, dashboards, and data that changes per user.
Many UAE businesses need both — a marketing site and a client portal — and it pays to plan them together so branding, sign-in, and analytics are consistent.
Bilingual Arabic and English websites
A good Arabic website is not a mirrored copy with translated text. Navigation, icons, forms, and tables must read right to left; Arabic fonts need different sizes and line heights; and numbers, dates, and phone fields need careful handling.
We also set up each language for search engines: separate URLs per language, hreflang annotations, and translated titles and descriptions, so the Arabic pages can rank for Arabic searches instead of competing with the English ones.
Performance, accessibility, and search
We build with server rendering and optimized images so pages are fast on mobile, which matters for both visitors and Google's Core Web Vitals. Pages follow WCAG accessibility guidelines and use semantic structure and structured data so search and AI answer engines can understand them.
Typical budgets are on our UAE pricing page; if your site needs online sales, see e-commerce development.

FAQ
Web Development: questions from UAE businesses
Direct answers about cost, timelines, and how this works in the UAE.
How much does it cost to develop a website in Dubai?
A professional company website with a CMS typically sits in our first budget band, under AED 37,000, depending on page count and whether it's bilingual. Websites with custom functionality such as bookings, quotes, or client logins usually fall between AED 37,000 and AED 184,000, and larger web platforms more.
How long does a website take?
A company website typically takes 4 to 8 weeks from content and design approval to launch. Web applications take 8 to 16 weeks for a first release, depending on features and integrations.
Do we need a separate Arabic website?
Not a separate site, but separate Arabic pages with their own URLs. That lets each language rank in search and lets visitors switch languages without losing their place.
Can we update the website ourselves?
Yes. We set up a content management system so your team can edit pages, publish articles, and manage both languages without a developer.
