How long does a website take in Dubai?

At NovaLab a Starter Website goes live in 5 to 7 days and a Business Website in 10 to 14 days, so 5 to 14 days in total. The clock starts when we receive your content: your photos, your service details and the rest of what the pages need.

Before that clock starts you get a free working demo, which we build within 24 hours. Source for every timeline on this page: the NovaLab web design page, novalab-digital.com/web-design-dubai.html, read 9 November 2026.

When does the clock start?

It starts when NovaLab receives your content. The 5 to 7 and 10 to 14 day figures are build times, so they do not include the days you take to gather photos and details, and they do not include the demo stage.

If you do not have content ready, tell us. Most clients send photos, a rough list of services and their Google reviews, and we write the pages from that. You approve every line before it goes live. Source: novalab-digital.com/web-design-dubai.html, read 9 November 2026.

What happens before the build starts?

You send one message on WhatsApp with the business name and what it does. We build a working demo of your site, a real link you can open on your phone, within 24 hours. The free demo is up to 5 pages and includes one round of changes before you decide.

Nothing is billed before you approve the demo. If it is not right, you walk away and it has cost you nothing.

What slows a website build?

Content is the usual cause. The 5 to 7 and 10 to 14 day figures start when we receive your content, so a build waiting for a logo, a price list or photos has not started its clock.

Other things that affect a timeline:

• Scope. The Starter Website is up to 5 pages and the Business Website up to 10. A second language, booking, a shop or a blog are quoted separately from the start.
• A domain that is not yet connected. The domain is registered in your name and paid by you. If you already own one, we connect it.

How do revision rounds work?

The Starter and Business Websites each include 2 revision rounds. Before that, the free demo includes one round of changes so you can decide.

Support after launch is 30 days for the Starter Website and 60 days for the Business Website. You own the files. An optional care plan costs AED 299 a month and covers edits, uptime and contact-form checks, and renewal reminders.

How do I choose a web design company in Dubai?

Ask five things of any company, us included:

1. Can I see a working version of my own site before I pay anything?
2. Which day does the build clock start?
3. How many revision rounds are included?
4. Who owns the files and the domain when the site is finished?
5. What is the price, in writing, for exactly the pages I need?

On proof: we have no published case studies yet. Until we do, the free check is your sample of how we work.

FAQ

Can a website really be live in 5 days? A Starter Website is quoted at 5 to 7 days from when we receive your content. If your content is complete when it arrives, that is the figure to plan around. Source: novalab-digital.com/web-design-dubai.html, read 9 November 2026.

Does the demo count toward the 5 to 7 days? No. The demo is built within 24 hours, before you decide. The build time starts when we receive your content.

What if I am slow to send my content? The build time starts when we receive your content, so the 5 to 7 or 10 to 14 days begin when it arrives.

How many changes can I ask for on the free demo? One round, before you decide. After you approve, the 2 revision rounds in the package apply.

Do you build in Arabic or French? We work in English, Arabic and French. A second language on a website is quoted separately.
