What Actually Drives the Price?

Number of Unique Page Templates

This is the single biggest factor and the one most quotes hide. A 30-page site using five templates costs far less than a 12-page site where every page is designed individually.

 
Custom Design vs Adapted Theme

A theme customised to your brand is quicker and cheaper. A design built from scratch costs more and looks like nobody else.

eCommerce

Products, variants, payment gateways, shipping rules, VAT handling and order management are a substantial body of work beyond the design.

Arabic

Right-to-left is a layout rebuild, not a translation. Navigation, icons, forms and spacing all change. Roughly 30–40% on top, and far cheaper decided at the start than retrofitted.

 
Integrations

CRM, booking systems, payment gateways, ERP, WhatsApp Business API — each one adds scope.

Content

Whether you supply copy and images or we produce them. Photography and copywriting are real line items.

What is Included in Our Pricing?

Every build includes: design and build, mobile layout, basic on-page SEO setup, Search Console and Analytics connected, contact forms with spam filtering, a training session so your team can edit the site, and a warranty period for fixes after launch.

Not included by default: hosting, domain, stock photography, ongoing maintenance, content writing. We will quote these separately so you can see what you are paying for.

 

What makes a site rank is technical structure, page speed, content that matches what people search, and structured data. A AED 50,000 site with no heading hierarchy and no schema will lose to a AED 15,000 site that has both.

This is worth stating plainly because it is where a lot of UAE budget gets wasted — beautiful sites that were never built to be found. We include the SEO foundations in every build rather than selling them back later. See SEO agency in Dubai.

 

Does an Expensive Website Rank Better?

No. Price and ranking are unrelated.

What Should You Be Suspicious Of?

Warning SignWhat It Means
AED 1,500 websitesThese are templates with your logo dropped in, usually built on a page builder with dozens of plugins, no optimisation and no support. They load slowly, they do not rank, and they cannot be extended.
"Free" websites bundled with hostingYou do not own it. Leaving means starting over.
No mention of who owns the code and the domainGet this in writing. It should be you.
Quotes with no page count or template countThere is nothing to hold anyone to, and scope will expand.

frequently asked questions

Do you charge a deposit?
Yes. Fifty per cent to start and fifty per cent on launch, for builds up to AED 15,000. Larger builds are split across three or four milestone payments so neither side carries the whole risk.
All prices are in AED and are the final amount. We are not VAT-registered, so no VAT is added on top. If that changes we will republish these pages with the VAT-inclusive figures rather than adding it at invoice.
Yes. The code, the design files, the domain and the hosting account are all yours.
Every build includes a warranty period for fixes. Ongoing changes are covered by a maintenance plan from AED 450 per month.
