Website design and development in Kenya.

Your website is usually the first conversation a customer has with your business, often before they ever call. We design and develop custom websites for Kenyan companies that look like a serious brand, load quickly on Safaricom and Airtel data, and turn visitors into enquiries on WhatsApp, phone or email.

SEO from day one

Page titles, structured data, sitemaps, Google Search Console and Google Business Profile set up at launch, not as an afterthought.

Enquiries that reach you

WhatsApp click-to-chat, call buttons, forms that email you, and analytics so you can see which pages bring in clients.

Content you can edit

WordPress or a headless CMS so your team can update pages, blog posts and team profiles without calling a developer.

We register or transfer your .co.ke or .com domain, configure business email and keep the site secure and backed up.

How we work.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    A free 30-minute call on WhatsApp, phone or Google Meet. We learn how your business makes money and what the system has to do.

  2. 02

    Written quotation

    A fixed scope, timeline and price in writing, with milestones. No hourly billing and no surprises mid-project.

  3. 03

    Design and build

    You see progress on a live staging link every week and sign off each stage before we move to the next.

  4. 04

    Launch and training

    We go live, test with real transactions, train your team and hand over logins, documentation and ownership.

  5. 05

    Support and growth

    Hosting, maintenance and direct access to the developer who built it, with monthly reports if you want them.

Questions.

How much does a website cost in Kenya?

It depends on the number of pages, custom features and integrations such as M-Pesa or bookings. After a short discovery call we send a fixed written quotation, so you know the full cost before any work starts.

How long does it take to build a business website?

A standard business website ships in 2 to 3 weeks from the day we receive your content. Larger platforms are scheduled in milestones inside the quotation.

Will my website rank on Google?

Every site we launch is technically ready to rank: fast, indexable, with structured data and a verified Google Business Profile. Ranking for competitive terms also takes content and reviews over time, which our SEO service handles.

Do I own my website?

Yes. The domain, the content and the code are yours, and we hand over every login at launch.

Do you only work with Nairobi businesses?

No. We are based in Nairobi but work with clients across Kenya, East Africa and abroad, fully remotely over WhatsApp and video calls.
