⦿ Arabic SEO Services
Rank in Arabic Search Across the Gulf
Native Arabic Writers · RTL Pages · UAE & Saudi Arabia
Arabic SEO costs from AED 650 per page or AED 6,500 a month alongside an English campaign, and it's usually the least competitive traffic a UAE business can win. Most competitors translate their English pages with a tool, which Google treats as thin, so a properly written Arabic page often ranks in weeks. Here's how we research, write and build Arabic pages, and the dialect decisions that matter.

SEO insights
Why Translated Pages Don't Rank
Most Arabic pages in the UAE are an afterthought: the English site is run through a translation tool and published. They almost never rank, for four reasons:
- Tool translation — stiff, literal Arabic that reads as thin content to Google and as careless to the reader.
- Wrong search terms — Arabic searchers don't use a word-for-word translation of the English keyword, so the page targets a phrase nobody types.
- No Arabic keyword research — volumes, spellings and variants are never checked, so the page misses the term that actually brings traffic.
- Broken RTL layouts — icons pointing the wrong way, mixed-direction text and forms that don't mirror, which push visitors straight back to Google.
Brands we work with
At DataMySite, we are proud to partner with a diverse range of clients across various industries, from startups to established global brands.
What Arabic SEO Includes
- Arabic keyword research — real Arabic search terms, volumes and spelling variants for the UAE and Saudi markets.
- Native writing — every page written from scratch by a native Arabic writer, never machine-translated.
- RTL templates — right-to-left layouts checked component by component.
- Hreflang — Arabic and English versions linked so neither is treated as a duplicate.
- Arabic schema — structured data in Arabic for your business, services and FAQs.
- Arabic Google Business Profile posts — so your map listing speaks to Arabic searchers too.
- Arabic links — mentions and links from Arabic-language news and industry sites.

MSA or Gulf Dialect?
It's the first question every client asks. The short answer: Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) for your website, Gulf dialect for social media and ads.
Modern Standard Arabic — Web Pages
People type searches in MSA, and Google indexes it consistently, so service and information pages are written in it. Example service page heading:
خدمات تحسين محركات البحث في دبي
Gulf Dialect — Social and Ads
Dialect feels personal and works where people scroll and listen: Instagram captions, ads and radio scripts. Example social caption:
تبي موقعك يطلع أول في قوقل؟

Arabic SEO Pricing
Prices are in AED. Arabic is always quoted as a separate line so you can see exactly what the second language costs.
| Option | Price | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| Per page | From AED 650 | Arabic keyword research, native writing, RTL check, hreflang and schema for one page |
| Monthly, with English SEO | AED 6,500 / month | Ongoing Arabic pages, GBP posts and links as part of a bilingual SEO package |
Example: Written vs Translated
Anonymised from a client in the UAE:
- Translated page — The Arabic service page had been machine-translated from English. It targeted a word-for-word translation of the English keyword, which isn’t what Arabic-speaking customers actually search for, so it stayed buried in the results and brought in almost no traffic.
- What we did — We researched the Arabic terms people really use, rewrote the page from scratch in natural Arabic, fixed the right-to-left layout, and set up hreflang so Google showed the right language version to the right audience.
- Written page — The native Arabic page started ranking for the terms customers search, bringing in steady Arabic-speaking traffic and new enquiries.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Arabic SEO cost?
From AED 650 per page for research, writing and setup, or AED 6,500 a month as part of a bilingual SEO package. Arabic pages are quoted separately so you can see exactly what the second language costs.
Should we write in Modern Standard Arabic or Gulf dialect?
Service and information pages in Modern Standard Arabic, because that's how people search and how Google indexes. Dialect belongs in social captions and radio scripts, not on web pages.
Can we just translate our English pages?
You can, but they rarely rank. Arabic searchers use different terms, and tool translations read as thin content. We research the Arabic keyword first and write the page from scratch.
Do you handle right-to-left layouts?
Yes. We set the RTL templates, check every component mirrors correctly, and make sure the Arabic and English versions are linked with hreflang so neither is seen as a duplicate.
Does Arabic SEO work for Saudi Arabia too?
Yes, and it's where it pays most. Saudi search volume is larger and more Arabic-heavy than the UAE. We run KSA campaigns through our Saudi marketing team with the same writers.
Win the Arabic Searches Your Competitors Ignore
Arabic search in the UAE and Saudi Arabia is large, and most of your competitors are still showing it a machine translation. A properly researched, natively written Arabic page is often the fastest ranking win available. Run it on its own or alongside your English SEO campaign.
