When you need it
- You don't have a website yet, and you're considering creating one instead of relying on social accounts alone.
- Your website is outdated, slow, or hard to use on a phone.
- Visitors arrive from your ads, but few get in touch.
- You can't update your website's content without going back to whoever built it.
- You need dedicated pages for specific campaigns or services.
What the service can include
The scope of each project is set according to what you need, and may include:
- Site planning
- the pages your business needs, what each page must answer, and the path a visitor takes to get in touch.
- User experience
- arranging content, buttons, and forms to suit how people browse on their phones.
- Design
- consistent with your brand identity, or with an identity developed as part of the project.
- Development
- building the site and preparing it for launch.
- Contact options
- request forms, and call and WhatsApp buttons, depending on what suits your business.
- Technical foundation for search
- page structure and headings that help search engines understand the site.
- Measurement setup
- as the site requires, in coordination with the Analytics & Conversion Optimization service.
- Launch
- connecting the site to its domain and hosting, and reviewing it before it opens to visitors.
An Arabic website, not a mirrored one
An Arabic website isn't an English one flipped right to left. Arabic fonts need different spacing, text that mixes Arabic, English, and numbers needs careful handling, and some icons and arrows should be mirrored while others shouldn't. If the site is in two languages, each needs to be written and arranged for its own reader, not translated word for word. These details are part of planning from the start.

- Understand the business and the site's purposewhat do you want the visitor to do?
- Plan the pages and contentbefore any design.

What's defined in the quote
These items vary from project to project, and shouldn't be assumed to be included unless the quote states them:
- Number of pages and languages.
- Content writing: whether you provide it, or it's written as part of the project.
- Hosting and domain: whether you already have them, or they're added through the Hosting Management service.
- Maintenance and updates after launch.
- Technical support after delivery, and for how long.
- Changes after launch.
- Any costs for paid tools or services the site needs.
What I need from you
- Content and information about your business, or a decision to have it written as part of the project.
- Your brand identity files, if you have them.
- Access to your current domain and hosting, if they exist.
- One person in your company who signs off on decisions.
- Examples of websites you like, and why you like them.
Service limits
A good website makes it easier for visitors to understand you and get in touch, but it doesn't on its own guarantee a certain number of requests. That also depends on who reaches the site, the offer, and how requests are followed up.
FAQ
Will I be able to edit the content myself after launch?
That depends on how the site is built. If editing it yourself matters to you, tell me at the start, because it affects development decisions.
Why do you prioritize mobile over desktop?
Because many website visitors arrive on their phones, especially those coming from ads and social platforms. A site that only works well on a computer loses some visitors before they've read anything.
What happens after launch?
After launch, a website needs hosting, and may need maintenance, updates, and support. All of these are defined clearly in the quote, so you know in advance what's included and what isn't.
Can my current website be improved instead of building a new one?
Sometimes. I review the site first, then tell you whether improving it is possible and worthwhile, or whether starting fresh makes more sense.
