The verdict in three sentences
Redesigning an enterprise website in Casablanca costs between 25,000 and 90,000 MAD in 2026 for the corporate base, plus CMS, governance and Arabic (RTL) multilingual support. The real stake of a redesign isn't cosmetic: it's credibility on export markets and your team's ability to publish without depending on a vendor. A well-redesigned group site can generate +25% inbound leads in a year, more than repaying the investment.
2026 redesign grid in Casablanca
The ranges below match the 2026 Casablanca market (order of magnitude), for a structured export-oriented company.
| Redesign item | 2026 cost (MAD) | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Redesigned corporate base | 25,000 – 90,000 | 15-30 pages, premium design |
| CMS + editorial governance | +20,000 – 50,000 | Approval workflow |
| FR/EN/AR multilingual (RTL) | +15,000 – 40,000 | Right-to-left Arabic |
| SEO carryover + redirects | +8,000 – 20,000 | Preserve rankings |
| Accessibility (WCAG AA) | +10,000 – 25,000 | Audit included |
| Copywriting / translation | +12,000 – 35,000 | Three languages |
A full group project (base + CMS + trilingual + SEO) therefore sits between 70,000 and 200,000 MAD in 2026, excluding recurring costs.
Recurring costs and timelines
A redesign only succeeds if it stays maintained and fast over time. Here are the annual and timeline benchmarks.
| Item | 2026 benchmark | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly maintenance | 3,000 – 9,000 MAD/mo | Security + improvements |
| Managed hosting | 4,000 – 12,000 MAD/yr | CDN, backups |
| Redesign timeline | 8 – 16 weeks | By scope |
| SSL + security | 0 – 3,000 MAD/yr | Often included |
| Domain .ma / .com | 150 – 500 MAD/yr | Renewal |
A prudent CFO thus budgets, on top of the project, around 60,000 to 100,000 MAD/yr in recurring costs (maintenance + hosting) for a demanding group site.
Mini case study
Ms. El Amrani, CFO of an industrial group in Casablanca, leads the redesign of an aging site that hurts the brand on European tenders. She approves a 95,000 MAD budget (base + CMS + FR/EN/AR trilingual) and 6,000 MAD/mo maintenance, i.e. 72,000 MAD/yr. Before the redesign the site generated 40 inbound leads a year; the +25% target raises this to 50, of which 3 convert into export contracts worth 300,000 MAD margin each. In a single year, the total 167,000 MAD investment is covered more than 5 times by the new contracts. The CMS governance also lets her team publish without billing every change.

FAQ
Why redesign rather than tweak the existing site?
Because an aging site costs more in lost credibility than in redesign budget. Past 4-5 years, technology, SEO and accessibility are often outdated; tweaking is like repainting a cracked structure.
How much does Arabic RTL support cost?
Between 15,000 and 40,000 MAD in 2026 depending on content volume. RTL (right-to-left) requires specific work on layout, icons and forms; it's not a simple translation.
Is SEO carryover essential during a redesign?
Yes, absolutely. Without a redirect plan (8,000-20,000 MAD), a redesign can drop organic traffic by 30 to 50% for several months. It's the most frequently forgotten item.
How long for a group redesign?
8 to 16 weeks in 2026 depending on languages and governance. Content migration and QA often weigh as much as development.
What does a governance CMS actually bring?
A multi-level approval workflow: a writer drafts, a manager approves, then publishes. Your team gains autonomy and you stop paying 500 MAD for every text fix.
