One off website development in Dubai, owned outright
Apex Digital is a website development company in Dubai for businesses that want to own the site from day 1. A one off build starts from AED 25,000 + VAT, is scoped on a consultation call, and is made on Webflow or WordPress and handed over in your own account the day it goes live. There is no monthly plan to sign and no 12 month term.
Built on Webflow or WordPress, whichever suits the business
We choose the platform with you on the consultation call. Webflow suits most service businesses, clinics, contractors and consultancies that want a sharp design and fast pages without a stack of plugins. WordPress suits sites with a large library of content, a members area or a plugin your team already relies on. On either one you get clean code and a design drawn for your business.
The site is built in your own account from the first day, so there is nothing to move at the end. You hold the logins for the domain, the hosting, the analytics and the Google Business Profile, and the files are yours to take to any developer you like.
SEO scoped in at the start, so the site can be found from launch
A one off build is priced for the website, and the search work is scoped alongside it when you want it. On the call we look at what your customers type into Google in Dubai, which districts your work comes from and who already shows up for those searches. Then we agree how many service and district pages the build includes and write each one against the research.
The technical groundwork goes in at build: schema on every page, internal links, a sitemap, alt text and Search Console. Ongoing SEO after launch is included in the monthly plans, which we can talk through on the call if search matters to you.
From AED 25,000 + VAT, priced after a consultation
One off websites start from AED 25,000 + VAT. The final figure depends on the number of pages, the features the site needs and whether copywriting and SEO are in scope, so we price it on a consultation call. You get a written proposal with the price before any work starts.
The monthly plans are cheaper to begin with, from AED 1,500 a month + VAT with nothing up front and the SEO included. A one off build suits the business that wants to own the site outright and decide for itself what happens next.
Fast on a phone and technically complete on any platform
Most Dubai customers first meet a business on a phone, between meetings or in the back of a taxi, so every build is drawn for the phone first and scaled up from there. Pages are light, images are compressed, and the forms and WhatsApp buttons are checked on a phone before launch.
Under the surface the site carries what search engines and AI assistants read: schema, clean headings, canonical tags, a sitemap and an llms.txt file. These come with every build and are written into the proposal from the start.
Handed over with the logins, the files and a walkthrough
When the build is finished the site sits in your account and the logins come with it: the domain, hosting, analytics, Search Console and Google Business Profile. We walk you or your marketing person through editing pages, adding a blog post and swapping an image, and the files and design source are yours to keep.
If you would rather not edit anything yourself, ask us about moving onto a monthly plan, which includes the edits, or hand the site to any developer you choose. Nothing in the build ties you to us.
Set up so Google and AI search can quote you
Google reads a website one way and AI assistants read it another, and a one off build can be set up for both. That means schema on every page, answers written under clear question headings, an llms.txt file and a structure the assistants can crawl and trust enough to cite.
The set up comes with the build. Whether the content on top of it earns citations depends on how much of it is written and how well it answers what people ask, which is something we scope with you on the consultation call.
A website planned around what people actually type into Google,
by district
A typical business website lists each service once, on one page. A villa AC maintenance company has a page called AC Services and that is the end of it. Nobody searches for AC services.
They search for AC repair Al Barsha, or villa AC maintenance Jumeirah, or duct cleaning JVC, because they want a technician who can come this week. If the site has no page for that district, Google has nothing of yours to show for the search, so it shows someone else.
A one off build can fix that from the start. Before we design anything we do the keyword research: which districts, which services, how many people search each month and who already sits on page 1. The pages we agree to build are the ones that can win, and the proposal says how many there are.
If the brief needs more than a handful of pages, or a booking system, a members area or a shop, the price moves up from AED 25,000 + VAT and we say so on the call. If it is smaller, a monthly plan usually costs less to start and includes the SEO.

SEO in Dubai
Search work that carries on every month, included in every website plan. Keyword research by district, pages that can win, schema and internal links, your Google Business Profile looked after, and a ranking report each month saying what moved.
Social Media
Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn run for you, planned around the districts your customers are in rather than one feed for the whole city. Calendars, posting, replies and a monthly report, scoped on a consultation call.
Paid Ads
Google and Meta campaigns aimed at the searches with intent, district by district, with conversion tracking in place before a dirham is spent. Management is scoped on a call, and ad spend is paid by you to the platform.
Plans and Pricing
3 website plans, and the only thing that changes is how much ground you cover: Launch from AED 1,500 a month + VAT, Growth from AED 3,500 a month + VAT and the Apex plan from AED 5,000 a month + VAT. Nothing up front.
Ecommerce Websites
Shops and larger builds sit outside the monthly plans. Scoped on a consultation call as a Custom plan or a one off build, on Webflow or Shopify, and owned outright in your own account.
