* Restructured the form flow to align with right-to-left cognitive patterns
|
||||
* Built a dual-language data entry process with smart language changing
|

* Improved smartphone usability for thumb-based Arabic text entry

The most successful Saudi brands recognize that users don't separate in terms of channels. My investment client achieved a seventy-six percent growth in potential customers after we integrated their previously disjointed platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
A few weeks ago, my friend's e-commerce store was barely surviving in search results despite selling excellent products. After implementing the strategies I'm about to describe, his search visits increased by 164% in just 60 days.
|
||||
|
||||
After considerable time of disappointing outcomes in the Kingdom, their enhanced strategy produced a two hundred eighty-seven percent improvement in brand recognition and a one hundred forty-three percent boost in business.
|

|
||||
I still laugh when clients tell me they're using the "latest" digital marketing techniques but haven't updated their tactics since 2022. The digital landscape has changed significantly in just the past 12 months.
|
||||
|
||||
* Select fonts purposely developed for Arabic digital display (like GE SS) rather than conventional print fonts
|
||||
* Increase line leading by 150-175% for improved readability
|
||||
* Implement right-oriented text (never middle-aligned for body text)
|
||||
* Stay away from condensed Arabic fonts that reduce the unique letter shapes
|
||||
|
||||
For a digital business, we adapted their worldwide graphic components to better align with Saudi aesthetic preferences while keeping visual recognizability. This strategy increased their brand appeal by 124%.
|
||||
|
||||
For a multinational apparel company, we developed a locally-targeted digital branding approach that included tasteful local symbolism. This technique enhanced their relationship strength by 167% in only half a year.
|
||||
|
||||
Working with a high-end retailer, we found that their local language identity was significantly inferior than their English branding. After creating consistency between the language versions, they saw a 93% growth in presence appreciation among Saudi audiences.
|
||||
|
||||
For a investment brand, we developed a website that thoughtfully integrated international standards with culturally appropriate aesthetic features. This strategy increased their user confidence by ninety-seven percent and applications by 74%.
|
||||
|
||||
These included:
|
||||
* Visible presentation of physical presence address
|
||||
* Integration of local financial services like local services
|
||||
* Detailed refund procedures with Saudi applications
|
||||
* Native support options
|
||||
|
||||
If you're creating or improving a website for the Saudi market, I urge consulting specialists who genuinely comprehend the subtleties of Arabic user experience rather than simply adapting Western interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
* Shifted product photos to the left portion, with product information and purchase buttons on the right side
|
||||
* Modified the product gallery to move from right to left
|
||||
* Implemented a custom Arabic typeface that maintained legibility at various scales
|
||||
|
||||
Last month, I was helping a large e-commerce business that had invested over 200,000 SAR on a impressive website that was failing miserably. The reason? They had just converted their English site without addressing the essential design distinctions needed for Arabic users.
|
||||
|
||||
As someone who has developed over 30 Arabic websites in the last half-decade, I can tell you that applying Western UX practices to Arabic interfaces fails miserably. The unique characteristics of Arabic script and Saudi user behaviors require a specialized approach.
|
||||
|
||||
Important components included:
|
||||
* Mirrored layouts for right-to-left scanning
|
||||
* Script-optimized fonts
|
||||
* Locally appropriate imagery for each verbal identity
|
||||
* Harmonious identity presentation across dual implementations
|
||||
|
||||
* Position the most important content in the top-right corner of the screen
|
||||
* Arrange page sections to progress from right to left and top to bottom
|
||||
* Use stronger visual weight on the right side of symmetrical layouts
|
||||
* Verify that directional icons (such as arrows) orient in the appropriate direction for RTL designs
|
||||
|
||||
Throughout my previous project for a investment company in Riyadh, we observed that users were repeatedly selecting the wrong navigation options. Our user testing showed that their eyes naturally flowed from right to left, but the primary navigation items were placed with a left-to-right emphasis.
|
||||
|
||||
* Developed a figure visualization approach that accommodated both [arabic website user experience](https://www.Ukdemolitionjobs.co.uk/companies/%d8%ab%d8%b1%d9%8a-%d8%b3%d9%83%d8%b3%d8%aa%d9%8a-%d8%a7%d9%84%d8%b3%d8%b9%d9%88%d8%af%d9%8a%d8%a9/) and English numbers
|
||||
* Reorganized graphs to read from right to left
|
||||
* Implemented color-coding that aligned with Saudi cultural associations
|
||||
|
||||
* Explicitly specify which language should be used in each input field
|
||||
* Intelligently switch keyboard input based on field requirements
|
||||
* Place field labels to the right of their corresponding inputs
|
||||
* Verify that error notifications appear in the same language as the required input
|
||||
|
||||
After years of disappointing results with their standard website, their new locally-tailored website generated a three hundred twelve percent growth in engagement and a one hundred eighty-seven percent boost in conversions.
