How to make a website for your business in Pakistan: a step by step guide
Websites2 min read
Most customers now search on Google or check Instagram before they call you. A website is where they decide whether to trust you. It does not need to be big. It needs to be fast on a phone, clear about what you do, easy to find on Google and easy to contact. Here is how to get one built properly.
In this guide
Step 1: Decide what the website must do
Write one sentence: what should a visitor do on your website? Call you, send a WhatsApp, book an appointment, place an order or buy a product. Everything else on the site exists to get them there.
| Type of website | Best for |
|---|---|
| Business website | Services, clinics, schools, offices, contractors |
| Online store | Brands selling products with cash on delivery or card |
| Restaurant ordering site | Restaurants taking orders without marketplace commission |
| Landing page | Meta and Google ad campaigns |
Step 2: Get a domain name
Your domain is your address, like yourbrand.com or yourbrand.pk. Keep it short, easy to spell and close to your business name. Register it in your own name, not your developer's, so you always control it.
Step 3: Plan your pages
A small business usually needs five pages: home, services or products, about, contact, and one page for each main service. Each service page should target one thing people search for, such as "bridal makeup in Lahore" or "AC repair Karachi".
Step 4: Build it mobile first
Most visitors in Pakistan arrive on a phone, often on mobile data. Your website should load in under 2 seconds on a phone, with big tap targets, a click-to-call button and a WhatsApp button that is always in reach.
Step 5: Make it findable on Google
- A clear title and description on every page, with the words customers search for
- One main heading per page that says what the page is about
- Fast loading and clean structure
- Your address, phone number and opening hours, matching your Google Business Profile
- Useful content: answers to the questions customers actually ask
- Submit the site to Google Search Console so Google finds every page
Step 6: Turn visits into enquiries
Put one clear call to action on every page. Use short forms: name, phone and what they need. Send enquiries to WhatsApp or your CRM so none are missed. Set up Google Analytics and the Meta Pixel so you know which ads bring leads.
Step 7: Keep it updated
Old prices and closed branches lose customers. Ask for an editor so you can change text, prices and photos yourself without calling a developer.
DIY builder or a developer?
Website builders are fine for a simple page. A developer makes sense when you need speed, Google ranking, an online store, or a connection to your POS or stock system. Our website service builds business websites, online stores and restaurant ordering sites that connect to RestaurantOS, RetailOS and OMS. A business website usually takes 2 to 4 weeks.
