Specialized RTL & Multilingual Support
Arabic WordPress sites break in ways English sites don't. We speak the language of RTL architecture.
Managing a bidirectional (RTL/LTR) WordPress site requires more than just translating content. It requires deep expertise in Right-to-Left CSS frameworks, WPML/Polylang database structures, and font rendering optimization. We provide specialized support for the unique technical challenges of Arabic and multilingual WordPress sites.
The "It Looks Fine in English" Problem
You hired a developer to build a bilingual site. The English version looks perfect. The Arabic version is a technical mess. The slider goes the wrong way. The margins on the mobile menu are inverted. The checkout page alignment is broken.
When you ask for a fix, the standard WordPress support service tries to apply LTR (Left-to-Right) CSS logic to an RTL problem. They add custom CSS that fixes the Arabic layout but breaks the English one. They don't understand that WPML has desynced the product inventory between languages.
Multilingual architecture is the most complex layer you can add to WordPress. Most generalist support services simply don't have the experience to manage it.
Why WPML Updates Break Your Site
WPML and Polylang are powerful plugins, but they operate by fundamentally altering how WordPress queries the database. When a standard theme or plugin update is released, the developer tests it on a single-language site. They rarely test it against a complex WPML string translation environment.
You run the update, and suddenly your Arabic product variations disappear. Your translated menus revert to English. Your custom post type URLs return 404 errors in the secondary language.
Generalist support teams will blame the plugin developer. We know that in a multilingual environment, update conflicts are the baseline reality. They must be anticipated, tested in staging, and resolved at the translation string or database level.

Questions answered.
Do you provide translation services?
No. We provide the technical architecture and support for the platform. You provide the translation content; we ensure the site displays it correctly, manages the database relationships, and keeps the RTL layout flawless.
My Arabic font is making the site very slow. Can you fix this?
Yes. Arabic web fonts (like Cairo or Tajawal) often have large file sizes due to complex ligatures. We optimize font loading, implement subsetting, and use CSS `font-display: swap` to ensure performance without sacrificing typography.
We use Polylang instead of WPML. Do you support it?
Yes. We support all major WordPress multilingual architectures, including WPML, Polylang, MultilingualPress (multisite approach), and TranslatePress.
