Services · Website development · Tourism websites
Codeeo provides tourism website development in Makkah for ziyarat companies, Umrah service providers adding visits to their programmes, cultural venues and licensed guides. Every guest in the holy city is a Muslim visitor whose first purpose is worship. Around the prayers and rites, many want to see Jabal al-Nour, Jabal Thawr, Arafat and Mina outside the Hajj days, or the exhibitions near Mount Hira. We build Arabic first websites that describe those visits with accuracy and humility, and route requests to your team without friction.
The website handles presence, information and enquiries. It explains what you offer, earns search visibility in the countries your guests come from, and gives agents and families a clear way to ask for a programme.

What the website includes
Pilgrims in Makkah have little spare time and a lot to think about. Their hotel may be in Ajyad next to the Haram or several kilometres away in Aziziyah, their group may follow a leader, and their days change with the prayer times and the crowds. Many plan months ahead with an agent at home, then decide on extra visits once they arrive.
A Makkah tourism website has to serve both moments. Before travel, it must rank in the guest's country and language and give agents what they need to include your ziyarat in a package. During the stay, it must load on a crowded mobile network and answer the practical questions quickly: where the coach waits, how long the visit takes, whether it suits an elderly parent, and how to ask for a place. Underneath, a CMS lets your staff change timings, close programmes during Hajj and publish seasonal notices in every language at once.
Pages for each place your programmes include, such as Jabal al-Nour and the Cave of Hira, Jabal Thawr, Arafat, Muzdalifah and Mina outside the Hajj days, with what guests will see, how much climbing or walking is involved, and how long they will be away from the Haram.
Guests choose the right visit for their age and fitness.
Clear pickup details for the main hotel areas, such as Ajyad, Misfalah, Jabal Omar and Aziziyah, with meeting points described in words and on a simple map. Staff update points in one place when roads close or crowd controls change, and every page follows.
Fewer missed pickups and fewer phone calls.
A notice system for Ramadan timings, the Hajj period when many sites close to visitors, and short term changes. Notices appear on the relevant pages in each language and expire automatically, so guests never read last season's information.
Information on the site matches what happens on the ground.
Arabic first, with language versions for the countries your guests travel from, such as Urdu, Bahasa Indonesia, Malay, Turkish, Bengali, English and French. Each language has its own URLs and hreflang tags, and copy is reviewed by native speakers rather than generated by a widget.
Families find you in their own language before they fly.
A login area where Umrah agents abroad download programme sheets, see the visits you can add to a package, and send group requests with arrival dates, hotel and language. Group leaders can request a visit for their whole group in one form.
Agents can sell your visits without long email threads.
Draft, review and publish stages for any text about the Seerah, the rites or the sacred sites, with the reviewer and source recorded on each page. Your chosen scholar approves content before it goes live, in every language version.
Accurate religious content with a record of who approved it.
Listings for the cultural attractions your programmes visit or that you operate, such as the exhibitions of the Hira Cultural District, with hours, visit length and group arrangements. Where a venue sells its own tickets, we link to its official channel rather than duplicating it.
Guests see cultural visits alongside the historic sites.
Traffic to Makkah sites climbs sharply in Ramadan and before Hajj. We plan hosting, caching and a content delivery network for those peaks, keep pages light for congested mobile networks, and monitor uptime so slowdowns are caught early.
The site stays fast in the weeks that matter most.
Large text, strong contrast, simple navigation, captions on video and forms that work with screen readers and on older phones. Each visit page states the level of walking and whether a wheelchair can be accommodated.
Elderly guests and their families can use the site unaided.
A short request form, a WhatsApp button that opens with the programme and language already written, and routing to the staff member who speaks that language. Every enquiry is logged in your CRM with its source page and campaign.
Replies arrive quickly and in the guest's language.
Who this is for
Visitor services in Makkah sit alongside the official pilgrimage system, which is governed by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, and the wider development of the city's sites led by the Royal Commission for Makkah City and Holy Sites. Your website needs to be clear about what you provide and what remains with official channels. These four kinds of organisation make up most of the Makkah work we plan. The difference shows in the navigation, the tone of the copy and the enquiry routes each one needs.
You run coaches and guides to the historic sites every day. Your website should publish every programme with honest timings, pickup points by hotel area and clear guidance on what each visit involves physically. Strong pages in several languages help you rank in source markets and reduce the questions your staff answer at hotel desks. A notice system handles the weeks when sites close for Hajj. Each programme page can show the next available departures your staff publish each week.
Accurate timings matter more than persuasive copy here.
Your core work is the pilgrimage itself, arranged through official channels, and ziyarat is an extra. The website keeps the two clearly separate: your services and licences on one side, optional visits on the other, with an agent area that lets partners abroad add your visits to their packages. We do not present the site as a replacement for Nusuk or for official permits. Your licence and registration details appear on every page footer, where agents look for them.
Keeping official processes and optional extras apart avoids confusion.
Visitors want hours, location, transport from the Haram area, visit length and rules for groups. We build a site your team runs, with an events section, educational pages that can rank for searches about the history of the city, and group request forms. Content passes through your review step before publication. Opening hours and seasonal changes are edited once and shown everywhere they appear.
A lean, fast site that shows your licence, your languages, the visits you lead and how to reach you. It needs few pages but each one must be precise. We set up a Google Business Profile linked to the site and a WhatsApp route, so a guest who meets you once can find you again next year. Reviews from past guests, collected with their permission, can be shown on the relevant visit pages.
How we work together
Most Makkah clients start with a fixed scope website and then keep a monthly retainer so new language versions, seasonal notices and SEO work are ready before each peak. Larger groups with several brands sometimes choose a dedicated team. We are 80+ people across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, with 200+ projects delivered across the UAE and the US. Makkah projects run entirely by video call. Retainer hours are usually heaviest in the weeks before Ramadan and lighter after Hajj.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We pick a stack your staff can manage in several languages and that handles traffic peaks: WordPress with careful caching, or a headless CMS with Next.js. Hosting location is chosen with your PDPL obligations in mind.

Information, visibility and enquiries for ziyarat and visitor services.
We build the public website: programme and site pages, language versions for your source markets, an agent area, notices for Ramadan and Hajj, enquiry forms and WhatsApp routing, SEO, accessibility, hosting and analytics. Guides' operational tools and payment collection are separate projects. The site describes your services; it does not perform rites or issue the permits that official platforms handle. A clear boundary between the website and those other systems keeps the first release focused and gets it live sooner.
