You’re looking for a real number, not a wide range nobody explains. Here’s exactly what a medical website costs in Egypt and the Gulf, what moves that number up or down, and what should already be included in any quote before you sign.
How much does a medical website cost in Egypt and the Gulf?
A medical website for a single doctor, a clinic, or a medical center typically runs from 25,000 EGP (about 500 USD) up to 60,000 EGP (about 1,200 USD), depending on the site’s size and the customization it needs — a clear range you can measure any quote against, whether you’re in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, or elsewhere in the Gulf. A single-doctor clinic usually sits near the lower end, with a simple booking form; a medical center with multiple branches and extra languages pushes the price toward the top, because the structure itself is bigger. There’s no single “average” price that fits every clinic — the number follows the size of the site you actually need. If a quote lands well outside that range, ask why before you sign.
What determines the price
Four factors move the number up or down. First, site size: a single-doctor clinic costs less than a multi-specialty polyclinic, and a multi-branch medical center costs more than either. Second, the number of languages: an Arabic-only site costs less than a bilingual one. Third, customization: a detailed booking system, per-specialty and per-doctor pages, or integration with other management tools all add cost over a simple site. Fourth, content and media: professional photography or medical copywriting from scratch is a separate line item, not part of the build price itself. These factors compound rather than stand alone — when you ask for a price, ask about all four specifically, not just “what’s the total.”
What’s included in the 25,000 to 60,000 EGP price
That price is not just design and development. It should include a responsive, fast site that works on mobile, a booking or contact form that’s actually wired up, basic search-engine setup from day one, a full year of support, and a free domain and hosting for the first year. If a quote doesn’t spell out which of these it covers, ask before you sign — a missing item now becomes an extra invoice later.
The yearly renewal: what you’re paying for
After the first year, renewal is 10,000 EGP (about 200 USD) a year. That’s not an arbitrary fee — it covers domain renewal, continued hosting, and the security updates and maintenance any website needs to stay fast and safe. Ask any provider before you sign what exactly the renewal covers; a vague answer is a sign the number could climb later for no clear reason.
How you own the website
The website — its design, content, media, and domain — is yours from day one, not owned by whoever built it. The domain is registered in your name, your Google Business Profile and Search Console stay under your control, and every inquiry and booking the site generates is your data. You can export a complete copy of your site, its content in every language, and its data at any time, for free. If you later want to fully own the underlying engine, that’s a separate option at a fixed price, never a condition for getting your own website. You’re never locked to one vendor forever — if you decide to move, your data moves with you, intact.
Is a template enough, or do you need a custom build?
A ready-made template suits a doctor just starting out who needs a simple online presence quickly and cheaply. But if you have more than one branch, more than one specialty, or need integration with other tools, a template hits a wall fast — a two-branch clinic, for example, needs a separate page per branch with its own address, hours and booking, which most templates were never built for. If your needs will keep growing over the next few years, start with a site built to your size instead of switching a year or two in.
How to compare quotes — a quick checklist
Before you choose, make sure every quote clearly answers these: does the price include the booking form and basic SEO setup, or are those separate items? How long is support after launch? Are the domain and hosting free in year one? What exactly does the yearly renewal cost, and cover? Will the site be fully yours, exportable free whenever you want? Is the delivery timeline a clear number of days, or just “soon”? If a quote can’t answer one of these clearly, ask for it in writing — the clearest quote isn’t always the cheapest, but it’s usually the one with the fewest surprises after you sign.
