What a company website actually needs
- A home page that answers in seconds: who you are, what you do, for whom.
- Service pages with real detail, not generic headings.
- An about page that builds trust: years active, how you work, the team.
- Work samples or clients, where they exist.
- A clear contact page with phone, WhatsApp, email and branch location.
When 3 pages are enough
When the company offers one or two closely related services from a single branch to an Arabic-speaking audience. Here the site's job is to appear in searches for the company and its core service and turn the visitor into a call or a message. Extra pages add cost without return.
When 7 pages are justified
When each service has its own search audience. One page carrying five services ranks well for none of them; five dedicated pages give each service its own title, content and intent. An English version belongs here too if part of your clients or partners don't read Arabic.
When you need 12 pages
Multiple branches (each with its own address, map and hours), a regularly updated news or blog section, or deep sub-services that need standalone explanation. This level suits businesses treating the website as an ongoing marketing channel, not a business card.
Arabic only, or Arabic + English?
| Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Local clients only | Arabic only — don't pay for a version nobody reads |
| Tenders and international partners | Arabic + English |
| Hiring talent from abroad | Arabic + English |
| Tourism or hospitality | Arabic + English |
Ongoing cost after launch
A website isn't a one-off expense. Domain and hosting are included for the first year on standard domains and then renew annually in your name, and content changes over time: prices, a new service, updated branch details. You can manage that yourself or subscribe: SAR 299/month for basic management, SAR 499/month for ongoing management.
Domain and hosting policy
Domain and hosting are registered in your business's name and remain fully yours. Ask any provider directly: who owns the account? If the domain sits under the provider's name, you are tied to them even when you want to move.
