As a web design / development company in Dubai (aratech FZCO), We’ve been struggling with the cultural experience details of Arabic websites. The main challenge that arises in Arabic website, we believe is readability. As you have pointed Arabic fonts on the web should flow right-to-left and be readable. Unfortunately, support for Arabic fonts is lacking, even in the largest web fonts libraries like Google Web Fonts.

We end up using the basic font of “Tahoma” for all Arabic texts as it’s the only available font with a decent readability.
