“How much does a website cost?” is the first question almost every business owner in the UAE asks us. The honest answer is: it depends on what the website needs to do. A simple company profile for a cafeteria in Sharjah is a very different job from an online store with hundreds of products in Dubai.
In this guide we explain what you are actually paying for, which costs come back every year, and what our own packages include, so you can compare quotes with confidence.
What decides the price of a website?
Every quote you receive is built from the same few parts. When two quotes look very different, it is usually because one of them includes more of these items.
- Number of pages. A 5-page website (Home, About, Services, Gallery, Contact) takes much less time than a 30-page site with a page for every service and location.
- Custom design. A ready-made template is faster and cheaper. A custom design that matches your brand takes more work, but looks more professional and converts better.
- Online store (e-commerce). Products, cart, checkout, delivery options and payment setup add a lot of work compared with a normal business website.
- Content. Do you already have text and photos, or does the agency need to write and source them?
- SEO and Google setup. On-page SEO, Google Search Console, Google Business Profile and Google Maps setup are often charged separately, so check whether they are included.
- Special features. Booking systems, multi-language (English/Arabic), member areas and custom integrations increase the price.
Costs that come back every year
A website is not a one-time purchase. To keep it online you will always have some yearly costs. Many cheap quotes leave these out, and the business owner gets a surprise bill twelve months later.
- Domain name (for example yourbusiness.com or .ae) – renewed every year.
- Web hosting – the server your website lives on.
- SSL certificate – the padlock in the browser. Google treats sites without it as “Not secure”.
- Maintenance and security – WordPress, theme and plugin updates, backups and malware checks.
- Premium plugin licences – some features use paid plugins that need yearly renewal.
Before you sign, ask every agency: “What will I pay in year two?” A good agency will answer clearly.

Freelancer, agency or DIY website builder?
DIY website builders
Good for testing an idea on a very small budget. The downside: you spend your own time on design, SEO and fixes, and moving away from the platform later can be difficult.
Freelancer
Often cheaper. It can work well, but check who will handle hosting, updates and problems after the site goes live, and what happens if the freelancer is not available.
Agency
You pay for a team and a process: design, SEO, Google setup and ongoing support in one place. For most businesses that depend on Google for new customers, this is the safer long-term choice.
5 questions to ask before you pay for a website
- Is the domain registered in my name?
- What exactly is included – pages, SEO, Google Business Profile, WhatsApp button?
- How much will I pay in the second year?
- Can I edit text and photos myself after launch?
- Who do I contact if the site goes down, and how fast do you reply?
