How much does a website cost in Kenya?

A simple, professional business website in Kenya typically ranges from about KES 15,000 to KES 60,000, depending on the number of pages and how custom the design is. At Coders Africa our websites start from KES 30,000 with hosting included, and you own the finished site outright.

An online store with a product catalogue, M-Pesa or card checkout and order management usually costs more than a standard website because of the extra build and testing — commonly from around KES 60,000 upwards depending on the number of products and features. We scope each store to a fixed quote before starting so there are no surprises.

Hosting and a domain name are separate, ongoing costs. A domain (your .co.ke or .com address) is usually a few thousand shillings per year, and hosting is often a modest monthly or yearly fee. For most of our clients we set this up and fold it into a simple plan so you're not juggling multiple bills.

Once live, a website needs occasional updates, security patches and backups. Maintenance can be a small ongoing plan or done as needed — a brochure site needs very little, while a store taking daily orders needs more attention. We'll tell you honestly what yours will need.

Free builders can work to start, but you rent the site rather than own it, you're limited in what you can add, and the address often isn't fully yours. A built site is yours to keep, ranks better on Google, and grows with your business. That ownership is the difference we lead with.
