Web Design Company in Saudi Arabia: Arabic and English Websites That Win Enquiries

We design and build business websites, online stores and landing pages for companies across the Kingdom, with Arabic right-to-left layouts, fast mobile pages and search-ready structure from the first draft.

  • Arabic and English from day one
  • Mobile-first builds
  • Based in Riyadh, working across Saudi Arabia
Short answer

A web design company in Saudi Arabia plans, designs and builds a website so that customers can find the business, understand the offer and get in touch or buy. Design covers how the site looks and flows. Development covers how it is built, how fast it loads and how it connects to payments, forms and analytics. Most projects need both.

WASFA Digital is a Riyadh agency that handles design, development and the search setup in one team. If you are in the capital, our Riyadh web design page has the local detail. This page covers how we work with businesses in Jeddah, the Eastern Province and the rest of the Kingdom.

What we build

Pick the format that matches what the site has to do. Many clients start with a business site and add a store later.

Business and company websites

Service pages, about and contact pages, and the content structure that lets each service rank for its own search.

See the Riyadh service page

Online stores

Product, category and checkout pages on WooCommerce, Salla, Zid or Shopify, with local payment methods such as Mada and STC Pay where the platform supports them.

E-commerce solutions

Landing pages

Single-purpose pages for a campaign, built to load quickly and keep one action in front of the visitor.

Redesigns and rebuilds

A new design on an existing site, with a redirect map so the pages that already rank keep their position.

Mobile apps

When a website is not enough, we also build iOS and Android apps.

App development

What is different about building for Saudi Arabia

A site built for the Saudi market has to do a few things that a generic template does not.

RequirementHow we handle it
Arabic and EnglishSeparate Arabic and English pages, right-to-left layouts that are designed rather than mirrored, and hreflang so Google shows the right language. See our Arabic SEO guide.
Mobile firstMany visitors arrive on a phone, so we design the phone layout first and test it on real devices before launch.
Local payments and invoicingFor stores, we choose a platform that supports the payment methods your customers use. Check current e-invoicing requirements with your accountant. Our platform comparison covers what each platform supports.
Search setupTitles, headings, schema, sitemaps and internal links are built in, not added after launch. For WordPress sites, see WordPress SEO in Saudi Arabia.
SpeedWe aim for Google's page experience thresholds: Largest Contentful Paint of 2.5 seconds or less, Interaction to Next Paint of 200 ms or less and Cumulative Layout Shift of 0.1 or less, measured on real visits.

How a project runs

  1. Scope and structureWe agree the goal of the site, the pages it needs and the single action each page should lead to, then map the content and URLs.
  2. DesignPage designs in Arabic and English, shown on desktop and mobile, with your feedback built in before development starts.
  3. BuildWe build with Elementor on WordPress for most business sites, or on the store platform that suits your catalogue.
  4. TestWe check forms, tracking, speed and every page on real phones before the site goes live.
  5. Launch and monitorWe set up Search Console, submit the sitemap and watch indexing and errors after launch.

Our published timeline for a typical business site is three to six weeks, depending on the number of pages and how quickly content and feedback arrive. Prices depend on pages, languages, functionality and integrations. The website development cost guide sets out the ranges and what moves them.

Questions to ask any web design company in Saudi Arabia

These questions help you compare agencies on substance rather than portfolio screenshots.

  1. Who will design and build my site, and do they work in-house?
  2. Will the Arabic version be designed for right-to-left reading, or mirrored from English?
  3. What is included in the quote, and what costs extra after launch?
  4. Who owns the domain, hosting account and website files at the end?
  5. How will you handle redirects if my existing pages change address?
  6. How do you test speed and mobile layouts before launch?
  7. What support do I get after the site goes live?

Questions

How long does it take to build a website in Saudi Arabia?

A typical business website takes three to six weeks from approved content and design direction to launch. Online stores and sites with custom features take longer.

Do you build websites in Arabic?

Yes. We build Arabic and English sites with separate pages for each language, right-to-left layouts and hreflang tags.

Can you build on Salla, Zid or Shopify?

We build online stores on WooCommerce, Salla, Zid and Shopify, and recommend the one that fits your catalogue, budget and integrations.

Will my new website rank on Google?

A well-built site gives search engines what they need, but rankings also depend on content, competition and links. We set up the technical and on-page foundations and can continue with SEO.

Do you work with businesses outside Riyadh?

Yes. We work with businesses across Saudi Arabia, including Jeddah and the Eastern Province, from our Riyadh base.
