How Much Does a Website Cost in Saudi Arabia?

Updated 7 min read

If you search for the price of a website in Saudi Arabia you will find quotes from a few hundred riyals to tens of thousands. The gap is not random: it reflects very different projects, from a simple page that presents your business to a platform your team manages every day. This guide explains what really moves the price, what you should receive at each level, and which questions to ask any provider before you sign. Prices for Zadzan packages are copied from our pricing page and were last checked in November 2026.

Key takeaways

  • A custom business website at Zadzan starts at 1,500 SAR. Managed hosting is 150 SAR per month on top.
  • If you want to edit your own content, plan for an admin panel: 2,000–4,000 SAR.
  • The number on a quote matters less than what it includes: pages, revisions, hosting and who owns the finished site.
  • A starting website typically takes 2–4 weeks.

The short answer: what Zadzan charges

These are the website packages published on our pricing page. Prices are in Saudi riyals. The monthly figure applies only to packages that include managed hosting.

What a starting website includes

The starting website is built for a small business that needs to look credible and be easy to contact. It includes:

  • Up to 5 custom pages
  • A responsive design that works on mobile and desktop
  • A contact form and a WhatsApp connection
  • Basic search engine setup
  • Google Maps and social media links
  • One round of launch revisions

A project of this size typically takes 2–4 weeks.

What changes the price of a website

Two websites that look similar from the outside can be very different projects. These are the factors that move the price most.

Number of pages and amount of content
Every extra page needs design, writing and review. Five focused pages are cheaper to build, and easier to keep up to date, than twenty thin ones.
Custom design or a ready-made template
A tailored design takes more time than a template, but it can reflect your brand and the way your customers decide. Whichever you choose, ask to see the mobile screens before you approve anything.
Languages
A bilingual Arabic and English website means writing, checking and laying out every page twice, in two reading directions. For many Saudi businesses that is worth it, but it is real work, so it belongs in the quote.
Who supplies the content
Texts, photos, your logo and your prices. If you provide them ready, the project is faster. If the provider has to write or source them, expect that to be priced.
Managing content yourself
If the site rarely changes, the developer can update it for you. If you want to add offers, products or news yourself, you need an admin panel. That is the difference between our 1,500 SAR and 2,000–4,000 SAR packages.
Features and integrations
Online ordering, booking, payments, customer accounts or links to other systems are separate pieces of work. They can be added later: the starting website is built so it can be extended.

Costs after launch: hosting, domain and updates

A website is not a one-time purchase in the way a printed brochure is. Even after the build is paid for, three things continue.

Hosting
Your website has to live on a server that is always online. Our managed hosting is 150 SAR per month, and it is included in the Deployment packages.
Your domain name
A domain such as yourbusiness.com is renewed with a registrar periodically. Ask who registers it and in whose name: it should be registered in your business's name.
Updates and fixes
Ask what happens when you need a change next month. Is it included, charged per request, or covered by a monthly plan?

Build it yourself, custom, or custom with an admin panel?

Build it yourself
Suitable when you have the time, a good eye for layout and a very small budget. You trade money for effort and accept the limits of the tool.
Custom website
Suitable when your website is the first thing customers check before they call or visit, and you want it to be clear, fast and tailored to your business.
Custom website with an admin panel
Suitable when your content changes often, such as menus, offers, prices or news, and you do not want to wait for a developer each time.

Seven questions to ask before accepting any quote

  1. What exactly is included? Ask for the number of pages, languages, revisions and features in writing.
  2. What will I pay each month after launch, and for what?
  3. Who owns the domain, the design files and the finished website?
  4. How long will it take, and what do you need from me to keep to that time?
  5. Will I be able to edit the content myself, or do I need you for every change?
  6. Can I see the website on a phone before it goes live?
  7. What happens after launch: who fixes problems, and how quickly?

Red flags in a website quote

  • A price far below every other quote, with no description of what it covers.
  • No written scope, or a scope that says only "website".
  • A promise to put you number one on Google. No one can guarantee a ranking. A good provider sets up the basics properly and explains what else affects results.
  • No clear answer about who owns the domain and the files.
  • Pressure to decide immediately.

How to get a clear quote from Zadzan

  1. Tell us about your business, who your customers are and what you want the website to do.
  2. List the pages you think you need and share a few websites you like.
  3. We recommend a practical scope, a clear price and a timeline, before the build starts.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a simple business website cost in Saudi Arabia?

It depends on the provider and the scope. At Zadzan, a custom website starts at 1,500 SAR, and it is 1,500 SAR plus 150 SAR per month if you want us to host it. When you compare quotes, compare what each one includes rather than only the price.

How long does it take to build a website?

A starting website at Zadzan typically takes 2–4 weeks. The biggest factor in timing is how quickly the texts, photos and feedback are ready.

Do I have to pay a monthly fee for a website?

Only for services that continue after launch. At Zadzan, hosting is 150 SAR per month and is included only in the Deployment packages. Ask any provider to list every recurring cost before you agree.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes, if your package includes an admin panel, which is 2,000–4,000 SAR. Without one, changes are made by the developer.

Is the price you publish final?

The published prices are starting prices for the small-business scope described on each page. We confirm the final price after reviewing your requirements, and before the build begins.
