What it means for a Dubai business

Your three pinned posts are your shop window. A visitor arriving from a referral or a search sees them before anything else. Choose posts that answer what a new visitor needs to know: what you do and proof that you do it well.

Example

An interior design studio pins its best villa project, a short Reel of the founder explaining how a project runs from brief to handover and a post with its process and typical timeline. A new visitor gets the picture in three taps.

Common mistake

Pinning an old announcement or a giveaway and forgetting it. Check your pins every few months so they show your best current work.
