I'm Peter Kagunda, a freelance web designer and developer based in Nairobi, offering web design in Kenya to businesses, schools, NGOs and county organisations wherever they are. Over more than ten years and 200+ projects I have learned that a good Kenyan website has the same foundations everywhere: it loads fast on a phone and mobile data, takes M-Pesa, makes it easy to call or WhatsApp you, and shows up when people nearby search on Google.
Most of my projects run remotely over WhatsApp, phone and Google Meet, so it makes no difference whether you're in Westlands, Kisumu, Garissa or Lamu. You deal with me directly from the first conversation to launch and long after.

What a Kenyan website needs to get right
Mobile first, data light
Most Kenyans browse on a phone, often on mobile data. I design for small screens first and keep pages light, with compressed images, minimal scripts and caching, so your site opens quickly in Kitale as well as Kilimani.
M-Pesa and familiar payments
If you sell online or take bookings, customers expect to pay with M-Pesa. I integrate Safaricom's Daraja API so payment prompts appear on the customer's phone and orders update automatically, alongside cards and PayPal for diaspora buyers.
Easy to reach you
A WhatsApp button and click-to-call often bring in more enquiries than a contact form. Every site I build makes those options obvious on every page.
Found locally on Google
People search "near me" and by town name. I set up your Google Business Profile, local pages and Search Console so you can appear in your county's map and search results.
You own it
Your .co.ke domain and hosting are registered in your name, and you get every login at launch. No website held hostage.
How much does web design cost in Kenya?
It depends on the number of pages, online payments, bookings and how much content needs writing. You get a fixed quote in Kenya shillings before any work starts. For a detailed breakdown, read how much a website costs in Kenya.
