The most common mistake businesses selling from Türkiye into the Gulf make: translate the English site into Arabic and wait. Arabic search intent is different, the competition is different, and on the technical side RTL and hreflang are a job of their own.
Why translation is not enough
Arabic queries for the same product often ask a different question. A user searching in Turkish may be price-led; in Arabic the same product is frequently searched with trust and delivery in mind. A directly translated page answers the wrong question even when it ranks — and it does not convert.
There is also dialect: search volume for the same word shifts noticeably between the Gulf and Egypt. Building a keyword list without knowing the target country wastes time.
What we do
- Arabic keyword and intent research — per target country, not translated from the Turkish list.
- RTL site structure — right-to-left layout, correct typefaces, form and menu behaviour.
- hreflang setup — the Arabic page correctly paired with its Turkish and English counterparts.
- Arabic Google Ads — country-level targeting, Arabic ad copy, negative keyword management.
- Arabic content production — in-house, not outsourced translation.
- WhatsApp and multi-channel — a form alone does not convert in this market.
Who this fits
Health tourism, real estate, e-commerce and exporting manufacturers. Arabic search volume is high in all four, and most competitors selling from Türkiye publish in English only — that is the gap.
This site is the example
The site you are reading publishes in Turkish, English and Arabic, with the Arabic side running RTL and correct hreflang. We build the same structure for you.
