Arabic SEO in the UAE helps you reach customers who search in Arabic as well as English. Many UAE businesses have English-only websites and profiles, missing Arabic searches entirely. We set up bilingual Google profiles, Arabic pages on proper language URLs, and Arabic keywords based on real search demand — reviewed by native-level speakers.

Do I Need Arabic SEO for My UAE Business?
You need Arabic SEO if a meaningful share of your customers search in Arabic — common for government-facing services, family services, some healthcare, real estate for Arabic-speaking buyers, and Abu Dhabi and northern emirates audiences. We check Arabic search demand for your services before recommending it, so you don’t pay for pages nobody searches.
How Should Arabic Pages Be Set Up for Google?
Arabic pages should have their own URLs (for example /ar/), right-to-left layout, Arabic meta titles and descriptions, and hreflang tags linking English and Arabic versions. A JavaScript language switcher that changes text on the same URL usually isn’t indexed properly by Google.
| Setup | Google-friendly? |
|---|---|
| Separate /ar/ URLs + hreflang | Yes |
| Arabic subdomain + hreflang | Yes |
| JavaScript switcher on one URL | Usually no |
| Machine translation only | Risky for quality |
What’s Included?
Arabic keyword research, bilingual Google profile content, Arabic service pages, proper language URLs and hreflang, and native-level review. Included in Market Leader (AED 6,000/month) or as an add-on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do UAE customers search in Arabic?
Many do, especially for government-related, family and local services. The share depends on your industry and audience.
Should I make separate Arabic pages?
Yes, if you want to rank for Arabic searches. Use full Arabic pages with proper hreflang tags, not machine-translated text.
Can my Google Business Profile be in both languages?
Your profile has one official name, matching your trade licence. You can add Arabic content in posts, services and your website.
Is auto-translation good enough?
No. Machine translation often gets terms and tone wrong, which hurts trust and conversions. Have a native speaker review it.
