Overview
WorkSpots UAE is a directory of coworking spaces, business centres and serviced offices across the United Arab Emirates. It lists more than 70 spaces from 16 operators in all seven emirates, so people looking for a desk, a private office or a virtual office can compare their options side by side and contact the space directly, with no booking fees and no middleman.
Key Features
- City pages: Every emirate has its own page with stats, a map of every space, an amenities comparison, workspace types, business districts and FAQs.
- Operator pages: Browse all the locations run by operators such as Regus, Servcorp and WeWork in one place.
- Honest listings: Amenities are marked as available, unavailable or not confirmed, so gaps are never filled with guesses.
- Interactive maps: Each space is pinned on a Leaflet / OpenStreetMap map with one-click directions.
- Admin panel: A password-protected dashboard for adding and publishing spaces, operators and photos.
SEO
Search is the main way people find the directory, so SEO was built in from the start:
- City and operator pages are written as pillar pages with in-depth content and an "On this page" navigation.
- Pages are rendered on the server, with canonical URLs and Open Graph tags.
- Structured data for local businesses, breadcrumbs, item lists and FAQs.
- A generated sitemap that only includes published spaces.
Technologies Used
- Hono: Server-rendered pages using JSX, with no client-side framework.
- TypeScript: Across the server, views and database layer.
- PostgreSQL & TypeORM: Data storage, with versioned migrations for every schema change.
- Tailwind CSS: Styling for the public site and the admin panel.
- Leaflet & OpenStreetMap: Maps for every city and space.
- DigitalOcean Spaces: Storage and CDN for space and city photos.
Outcome
WorkSpots is live and covers every emirate, from Dubai and Abu Dhabi to Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain.
