We are an India-based studio working remotely with UAE businesses. Your working day and ours overlap almost completely, and every decision is written down.
In Dubai it is . In our studio in India it is .
Businesses whose buyers check them carefully before they call: real estate and property services, interior design and fit-out, clinics and wellness, education, hospitality and professional services. Many have teams in more than one country, and many sell to an audience that switches between Arabic and English.
We are honest about where we sit. We are an India-based studio, not a Dubai agency with a local office. What we offer instead is a working day that overlaps with yours, a written plan before any design starts, and a client portal where every request and approval is recorded.
One working day, two places
Two languages, done properly. An Arabic version is not a translated copy of the English site. It needs right-to-left layouts, Arabic typography that reads well at small sizes, its own URLs with hreflang so search engines show the right version, and copy written for the people reading it.
Trust, shown early. Buyers in Dubai look for the signals that a business is real and licensed: the company name as registered, a physical address, a Google Business Profile with genuine reviews and clear contact routes. Districts matter in search too, whether you serve Business Bay, DIFC, Dubai Marina, JLT or Deira.
WhatsApp first. Many enquiries start as a WhatsApp message. The site should make that route obvious, and the reply should be fast, in the language the visitor used.
We cover all three in more depth in building a business website for Dubai.
A discovery call in your morning, a written diagnosis, then a one-page plan you sign. Design and build run in short rounds, each with one review link, all inside your working week. After launch we track rankings, AI citations and enquiries in both languages and send a written note every month.

Our published case studies are from India. These two show the standard of build a Dubai client would get.
What a Dubai business website needs: Arabic and English done properly, trust signals buyers check, and WhatsApp enquiries that get answered and logged.
International SEO for businesses serving India, the UAE and the UK: URL structure, hreflang, market pages, currency, tax and contact norms.
WhatsApp AI reception for businesses in India and the UAE: what an AI receptionist should handle, when to hand over to a person, and how to set it up well.
How developers and brokers in Dubai and Hyderabad can build project pages that answer buyer questions on approvals, handover, payment and location.
What a website built on intent means: decide what each page must do before anyone designs it, so every page earns its place and its cost.
How a one-page website brief works: who the site is for, what it must do, what will not be built, and why you sign it before design starts.
No. Built on Intent is an India-based studio and we work with UAE clients remotely, over video calls, shared documents and our client portal. India is 1 hour 30 minutes ahead of UAE time, so our working days overlap almost completely. [Confirm: any UAE presence or partner]
Yes. A bilingual site needs more than translation: right-to-left layouts, Arabic typography that reads well, separate URLs for each language with hreflang, and copy written for each audience. Arabic copy is written or reviewed by a native writer. [Confirm: Arabic copywriting partner]
The UAE's Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the protection of personal data sets rules for collecting and using personal data. Free zones such as DIFC and ADGM have their own data protection laws. These shape your forms, privacy notice and enquiry tools; take legal advice for your situation.
Yes, and for many UAE businesses that is where they already arrive. We can route site enquiries to WhatsApp and add an AI receptionist on the WhatsApp Business Platform that answers common questions in Arabic or English, collects details and passes the conversation to your team.
Bring your current site and tell us who you sell to in the UAE. You leave with a plan, whether or not we work together.
