Web hosting in Kenya starts at Ksh 2,180 a year with Hostnali. That buys a fast, secure home for your website and business email. But price is only half the story: what matters is what you get for it, and whether it will still serve you when your business grows.
This guide walks through our four web hosting plans, what every plan includes, and how to choose the right one.

Prices are in Kenya shillings and are updated from our billing system every day, so what you see here is what you pay. You can compare all plans on the web hosting page.
What every plan includes
Whichever plan you choose, you get the same fast platform and the same tools:
- NVMe SSD storage and LiteSpeed web servers. NVMe drives are several times faster than ordinary SSDs, and LiteSpeed serves pages faster than Apache, especially for WordPress.
- Free SSL certificates for every domain, installed automatically, so your site shows the padlock.
- Unlimited email accounts on your own domain, such as [email protected], in webmail, Outlook or on your phone.
- cPanel, the most widely used hosting control panel, to manage files, databases, email and domains.
- Softaculous, which installs WordPress and more than 400 other apps in one click.
- SitePad, a drag-and-drop website builder with over 1,000 templates, if you would rather not use WordPress.
- Automatic daily backups you can restore yourself from cPanel.
- Node.js and Python support for developers.
- 24/7 support by live chat, phone and tickets, from a team that knows Kenyan businesses.
Which plan should you choose?
Starter is for one website: a company profile, a personal blog or a portfolio. It’s the cheapest way to get online, but it doesn’t include a free domain, so register one separately or use a domain you already own.
Standard is our most popular plan. It hosts up to five websites, triples the storage, and includes a free .co.ke domain. It suits most small businesses, especially if you run more than one site.
Executive and Platinum host unlimited websites with more RAM, storage and bandwidth. Choose them for online shops, busy blogs, or if you’re a web designer hosting sites for clients. If you plan to sell hosting under your own brand, look at reseller hosting instead.
You can upgrade at any time from the Client Area, and nothing is lost when you do.
Paying for hosting in Kenya
You can pay with M-Pesa, card or bank transfer, in Kenya shillings. Your account is set up instantly once payment is confirmed, and renewals can be paid the same way.
Yearly web hosting plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try us without risk.
Moving from another host?
We move your website, databases and email from your current host for free, and plan the switch so there is little or no downtime. Many of our customers move to us because their old host was slow or hard to reach: our guide to choosing a web hosting company in Kenya explains what to look for.
