About Digital Wasfa

The Team Behind Your Digital Growth in Saudi Arabia

Digital Wasfa is a digital marketing and technology agency based in Al Malaz, Riyadh, founded by Waseem Abdul Jalil. We help Saudi businesses grow through SEO, web and app development, performance marketing, content and e-commerce, delivered by one bilingual in-house team rather than a chain of subcontractors.

Who We Are

A Results-Driven Digital Partner Built for the Saudi Market

In short

Digital Wasfa is a full-service digital marketing agency headquartered in Al Malaz, Riyadh, founded by Waseem Abdul Jalil and serving businesses across Saudi Arabia. The agency brings SEO, web and app development, performance marketing, content creation and e-commerce solutions together under one accountable team, so a client gets strategy, build and growth from a single partner rather than a chain of separate vendors.

The agency exists because of a pattern we kept seeing in the Saudi market. A business hires one company to build the website, a second to run the ads, and a third to post on social. Each does competent work inside its own box. Then the leads do not arrive, and nobody owns the problem: the ad agency blames the landing page, the developer blames the targeting, and the client pays for both to argue.

Putting those functions on one team removes that failure mode. When the same people who wrote the ad also built the page it lands on, a two-second load-time problem is a task on Monday rather than a dispute in next month's meeting. That is the whole premise, and everything below is how we run it.

A Word From Our Founder

In today's fast-moving digital world, visibility isn't enough — you need to stand out. At Digital Wasfa, we don't just market brands, we build connections that last. Our passion is turning ideas into powerful digital experiences.”

Waseem Abdul Jalil founded Digital Wasfa to work the way he thought Saudi businesses were actually being underserved: not by a shortage of marketing suppliers, but by a shortage of ones willing to own the outcome end to end. He leads the agency from Riyadh and stays close enough to client accounts to answer for them personally, which is deliberate — an agency where the founder has never seen your account is an agency where nobody is accountable for it.

His work spans search, paid media and brand strategy, with a particular interest in the gap between how Saudi audiences search in Arabic and how most agencies handle that. Translated content reads as translated, and Saudi buyers notice; building in Arabic from the start is a discipline the agency has been deliberate about since the beginning.

Under his leadership, Digital Wasfa has grown into a partner for Saudi businesses that want their marketing, website and content pulling in the same direction, with each project aligned to the client's commercial goals rather than to whichever channel is easiest to sell.

The People on Your Account

Who You Actually Work With at Digital Wasfa

A Digital Wasfa engagement is run by a small named team rather than an anonymous account queue: a strategist who owns the plan and the reporting, plus the specialists that plan requires. Most clients need three or four of the five disciplines below, and we would rather tell you which ones than sell you all of them. The strategist is your single point of contact throughout.

Digital marketing strategist

Owns the plan, the budget split across channels, and the monthly report. Decides what gets built and in what order, and is the person who tells you when a channel is not working rather than quietly leaving it running. Every account has one.

Always on your account

SEO specialist

Handles technical audits, on-page structure, Arabic and English keyword work, local search and Google Business Profile, structured data, and the content briefs that feed it. Works across both languages, because ranking in one and not the other halves the result.

Organic search

Performance media specialist

Builds and runs Google Ads, Meta Ads and TikTok campaigns against a target cost per lead or return on ad spend. Owns conversion tracking, feed quality and creative testing — the three things that decide whether automated bidding works for you or against you.

Paid channels

Web developer

Builds and maintains the site or store the campaigns point at, including RTL Arabic layout, Core Web Vitals, Salla and Zid or WordPress builds, Mada and STC Pay integration, and ZATCA-compliant e-invoicing where the business needs it.

Build & maintenance

Content & creative

Writes in Arabic and English as first languages, not as translations, and produces the design and video that the campaigns and pages need. Every published piece is reviewed by a person on the account before it goes live.

Words, design, video

How the team is staffed

The team is in-house and Riyadh-based, working Saudi hours on the Sunday-to-Thursday week. Nothing is white-labelled out to an offshore agency without your knowledge, which is worth asking any shortlisted agency directly.

An Honest Comparison

Do You Need an Agency, a Consultant or a Freelancer?

A freelancer, an independent consultant and an agency solve different problems, and hiring the wrong one is an expensive way to find that out. Here is how we would frame the choice if we were sitting on your side of the table, including the cases where we are not the right answer.

A freelancer

Best when the job is one clearly-scoped task and you already know what needs doing.

  • Cheapest option by a wide margin, often SAR 1,000–4,000 for a defined piece of work
  • Good for a single landing page, an ad account rebuild, or a batch of content
  • Depth in one skill, no coverage in the others
  • Availability is the risk: one person, one illness, one bigger client
  • You supply the strategy and the quality control

An independent consultant

Best when you have an in-house team that can execute but needs direction.

  • Buys you senior judgement without a delivery team attached
  • Good for audits, channel strategy, and reviewing agency performance
  • Produces a plan; your team has to be able to execute it
  • Usually priced by day rate or fixed project fee
  • Poor fit if nobody internally can do the work

An agency like Digital Wasfa

Best when you need several channels running at once and nobody internally to run them.

  • Strategy and execution together, with one strategist accountable for both
  • Covers search, paid, web and content without adding suppliers
  • Continuity: the account survives any one person's holiday
  • Typically SAR 3,000–15,000 monthly for organic and social, media spend separate
  • Overkill if you genuinely only need one task done once — hire a freelancer instead

If you are still deciding between suppliers rather than between approaches, our guide to choosing a digital marketing agency in Riyadh covers the questions worth asking on a first call, and SEO pricing in Saudi Arabia breaks down what the numbers above actually buy.

Why Choose Digital Wasfa

A Strategic Approach to Measurable Growth

We follow a deliberate, data-driven process designed to boost visibility, attract organic traffic and deliver lasting results, with every project built to maximise your return on investment.

We Understand You First

We spend the first phase of every engagement on your goals, margins and constraints before recommending a channel. A clinic that needs twelve high-value bookings a month and an e-commerce brand that needs four hundred orders are different problems, and the strategies that suit them share almost nothing.

Real, Measurable Growth

Reporting names a cost per lead and the pages and campaigns that produced enquiries. Impressions and follower counts appear as context, never as the headline, because those are the numbers agencies reach for when the commercial ones are not moving.

Genuinely Bilingual Delivery

Arabic content is written in Arabic by native speakers, not translated from English drafts, and pages are built RTL-first rather than mirrored as an afterthought. In a market where consumer search is largely Arabic and much B2B search is English, doing only one well leaves half the demand uncaptured.

Build and Growth in One Team

Because the developers and the marketers report to the same account, a slow landing page or a broken conversion tag becomes a fix rather than a negotiation between suppliers. This is the single most common source of wasted ad budget we see in accounts we inherit.

Straight Answers

What We Will and Will Not Promise

The fastest way to judge any agency is to ask what it refuses to guarantee. Anything on the right-hand list below is outside every agency's control, including ours, and an agency willing to promise those things is either inexperienced or counting on you not checking afterwards.

What we commit to

  • A written scope that says what is included, what is billed separately, and whether media spend sits inside or outside the fee
  • A named strategist who owns your account and answers your messages
  • Monthly reporting that leads with cost per lead and enquiry volume, with the raw data available on request
  • Arabic and English delivery by native speakers, with no machine translation published
  • Full access to your own accounts — Google Ads, Analytics, Search Console and the website all stay in your ownership
  • An honest recommendation to stop, pause or reduce a channel when the numbers say so

What we will not claim

  • A guaranteed first position on Google, in any timeframe, for any keyword
  • A guaranteed citation in Google AI Overviews or AI Mode — selection is Google's, not ours
  • A fixed date by which SEO will produce a specific number of leads
  • That we are the number one agency in Saudi Arabia, which nobody can substantiate
  • Awards or certifications we do not hold, or client logos we do not have permission to display
  • That every business needs every channel — some of what we sell, you may not need

Frequently Asked

About Digital Wasfa

Who is Digital Wasfa?
Digital Wasfa is a full-service digital marketing agency based in Al Malaz, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, founded by Waseem Abdul Jalil. The agency provides SEO, web and app development, performance marketing, content creation and e-commerce solutions for businesses across Saudi Arabia, delivered in both Arabic and English.
Who founded Digital Wasfa?
Digital Wasfa was founded by Waseem Abdul Jalil, who serves as the agency's CEO and is based in Riyadh. He leads a bilingual in-house team across search, performance media, web development and content, and stays involved in client accounts directly rather than delegating them entirely to an account layer.
Who will actually work on my account?
Every Digital Wasfa account is led by a named digital marketing strategist who owns the plan, the budget allocation and the monthly report, supported by whichever specialists the plan requires from SEO, performance media, web development and content. The strategist is your single point of contact, so you are not routed through a support queue, and most accounts draw on three or four of the five disciplines rather than all of them.
Should I hire a digital marketing agency, a consultant or a freelancer?
Hire a freelancer when the job is one clearly-scoped task you already know how to specify, hire an independent consultant when you have an in-house team that can execute but needs senior direction, and hire an agency when several channels need running at once and there is nobody internally to run them. Digital Wasfa fits the third case; if your requirement is genuinely a single landing page or a one-off ad account rebuild, a freelancer will do it for less and we will say so.
Is the team based in Saudi Arabia?
Yes, Digital Wasfa's team is in-house and based at the Al Malaz, Riyadh headquarters, working Saudi hours on the Sunday-to-Thursday week. Work is not white-labelled to an offshore agency, which is worth confirming with any agency you shortlist, since a number of firms marketing themselves as Riyadh-based route delivery abroad.
Does Digital Wasfa work in Arabic and English?
Yes, Digital Wasfa delivers work in both Arabic and English by native speakers, with Arabic content written in Arabic rather than translated from English drafts. This bilingual capability matters commercially in Saudi Arabia, where consumer audiences largely search in Arabic while much B2B and expatriate search happens in English, so an agency strong in only one language leaves half the market uncovered.
What services does Digital Wasfa offer?
Digital Wasfa offers SEO, Google and Meta ads, TikTok Ads and TikTok Shop, social media management, web and app development, e-commerce solutions, graphic design, content writing and video editing. All services are delivered by one in-house team, so strategy, build and growth stay joined up, and clients can start with a single channel and widen the scope as results justify it.
What does Digital Wasfa refuse to guarantee?
Digital Wasfa does not guarantee a first position on Google, a citation in Google AI Overviews or AI Mode, or a fixed date by which SEO will deliver a specific number of leads, because none of those outcomes are within any agency's control. What is committed to instead is a written scope, a named strategist, monthly reporting led by cost per lead, full client ownership of all accounts and data, and an honest recommendation to pause a channel when the numbers do not support it.
Where is Digital Wasfa located?
Digital Wasfa is headquartered in Al Malaz, Riyadh 12627, and serves clients across Saudi Arabia including Jeddah, Dammam, Khobar, Mecca and Medina. The Al Malaz location puts the team within a short drive of Olaya, King Fahd Road and central Riyadh for in-person meetings, and you can reach them on +966 56 663 2884, at info@digitalwasfa.com, or through the contact page.
