Website design and development for Dubai and the UAE

Location · Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah & the UAE

BytGlen designs and builds websites for businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and across the UAE — bilingual English–Arabic websites with proper right-to-left layouts, e-commerce with UAE payment options, and websites for hospitality, real estate and service businesses. We work remotely from Kochi and Bangalore; India is only 1.5 hours ahead of the UAE, so most of the working day overlaps.

At a glance

  • English and Arabic websites with right-to-left (RTL) layouts
  • UAE payment gateways and buy-now-pay-later options
  • Local SEO for Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah searches
  • WhatsApp-first enquiry flows
  • Time overlap: India is UTC+5:30, the UAE is UTC+4

Bilingual websites, done properly

  • Arabic
  • RTL
  • hreflang
  • Typography

An Arabic version is more than translated text. Layout, navigation, icons and typography all mirror for right-to-left reading, and each language gets its own address so search engines show the right one.

What you get

  • Arabic layouts mirrored for right-to-left reading
  • Arabic typefaces paired with your brand fonts
  • A separate URL for each language, with hreflang tags
  • A language switcher that keeps visitors on the same page
  • A content workflow for professional Arabic translation and review
