Web Development Company in Dubai, UAE

Dubai and the wider UAE run one of the widest pricing spreads we see anywhere, and the biggest reason isn't ambition — it's language. A single-language English site and a properly bilingual Arabic/English build with right-to-left layout support are close to two different projects in terms of design and CMS work, and pricing guides published across the UAE market reflect that: roughly AED 800 to 3,500 for a basic starter site, AED 7,000 to 55,000 for a mid-tier business build with real integrations, and AED 15,000 to 110,000 or more for e-commerce or an enterprise-grade platform.

Bilingual builds cost more because they genuinely are more work — an Arabic CMS structure isn't a translation plugin dropped onto an English site, it's a second set of layouts, navigation and content workflows that have to work cleanly for editors on both sides. E-commerce and payment-gateway integration for the UAE market is the other major swing factor, since local gateway support and AED checkout flows add scoping time a purely informational site doesn't need.

These are general market ranges aggregated from public UAE pricing guides, not a Webcomp quote. Every project here — bilingual or not — gets scoped individually against its actual pages and integrations, with a fixed number agreed before work starts.

• Basic starter: AED 800–3,500 — a small single-language site, minimal custom functionality.
• Mid-tier business: AED 7,000–55,000 — a custom build with real integrations, often including a second language.
• E-commerce / enterprise: AED 15,000–110,000+ — a full bilingual build, payment gateways, complex catalog or platform requirements.

The other question that matters as much as price is timeline, and a bilingual Arabic/English site takes longer than businesses estimating off a single-language build usually expect. A single-language brochure site typically runs 3 to 5 weeks from signed scope to launch; add a properly built RTL Arabic layout and that stretches to 6 to 9 weeks, mostly because content review has to happen twice — once per language — and RTL layout QA catches issues a left-to-right design pass simply won't surface.

E-commerce adds its own timeline pressure on top of that: payment gateway integration and testing against real transaction scenarios (a declined card, a timeout mid-checkout) typically adds 2 to 4 weeks beyond a brochure-site build, regardless of language count. Businesses working toward a specific launch date — a product drop, a trade show, a Ramadan campaign — should factor bilingual and e-commerce timelines in from the scoping conversation, not discover the gap once a single-language date is already public.

We give a realistic timeline in the same written scope as the price, broken out by phase, so a launch date is something we've actually checked against the real workload rather than a number picked to sound good in a first call.
