Frequently askedBuilding a website in Marrakech: what decision-makers ask us
Answers drawn from 30+ Marrakech briefs since 2016.
Why work with a web agency that specializes in Marrakech?+
Marrakech has its own constraints: an international audience (65% FR / 25% EN / 5% ES), pronounced tourist seasonality, hospitality integrations (channel managers, booking engines), visual standards on par with competing destinations (Bali, Mykonos). An agency that doesn't master these topics delivers either too late or off-market. Klicky has worked in Marrakech since 2016 — 30+ projects delivered across the riad, premium retail, F&B, and events segments.
How much does building a website in Marrakech cost?+
Premium showcase site, 5-10 pages: MAD 35,000-65,000 ex. VAT. Complete trilingual B2B / hospitality site: MAD 80,000-160,000 ex. VAT. Premium multi-currency e-commerce: MAD 120,000-250,000 ex. VAT. Pro photo/video costs (MAD 10,000-25,000 depending on the shoot) are billed at actual cost with no markup. Hosting and licenses run roughly MAD 4,000-12,000/year depending on the stack.
WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, or custom Next.js?+
WordPress / WooCommerce for 65% of our Marrakech projects (editorial autonomy, ecosystem, controlled maintenance cost). Webflow for brands wanting total design autonomy. Shopify for e-commerce above 200 orders/month or international export. Custom Next.js for complex platforms (SaaS, marketplace, multiple integrations). Our job: pick the stack that serves your business, not the other way around.
Do you handle multilingual FR / EN / ES / AR?+
Yes, human translation by native writers (never Google Translate). For Marrakech, the minimum standard is FR + EN. In the luxury segment (5★ riads, boutique hotels, high-end wedding planners), Spanish is often justified (15-20% of qualified audience). Arabic remains relevant for the GCC market (UAE, Saudi Arabia) in premium hospitality.
What technical performance do you deliver?+
Klicky standard: LCP < 2.5s on 4G mobile, INP < 200ms, CLS < 0.1, mobile Lighthouse score > 90. An audit is delivered with every deployment. Across the last wave of Marrakech projects, median LCP was 1.7s (vs. 4.1s on the competitor-built sites we take over in redesigns).
Do you have a physical presence in Marrakech?+
Klicky has been based in Marrakech since it was founded in 2016 — this is our city. Briefs, co-design workshops, photoshoots, and review sessions happen on-site, with nothing to organize remotely. The rest of production (design, dev, QA) is steered from our Marrakech headquarters.
Can you integrate our hotel booking engine?+
Yes: Mews, Cloudbeds, Hotelogix, SiteMinder, Little Hotelier are the most common. We also integrate channel managers (D-EDGE, RateGain). The typical goal: move the direct booking share from 10-15% to 30-45% in 6-9 months, which reclaims 15-18% of margin on every booking off Booking.com.
What is the timeline for delivering a website in Marrakech?+
Showcase site 5-8 weeks, B2B / hospitality 8-12 weeks, e-commerce 10-16 weeks. These timelines include the brief + design phase (2-3 weeks), dev + content integration (3-8 weeks), QA + SEO + training (2-3 weeks). Typical kickoff 10-15 days after the quote is signed.
