FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do you own your servers, or are you a reseller?
We host on enterprise-grade infrastructure provided by leading global hosting partners — the same systems that power thousands of businesses worldwide. What we add is the local layer: KES pricing, M-Pesa billing, WhatsApp support, .co.ke domain registration, and direct relationships with our clients.
This is the same model used by most local hosting providers in Kenya. The advantage is you get global-quality infrastructure backed by a local team that actually answers when you call.

How is your pricing in KES different from foreign hosts?
Foreign hosts (Hostinger, Namecheap, Bluehost, etc.) bill in USD. When the shilling weakens, your hosting bill goes up. We bill in KES — your renewal stays predictable from year to year.
Why should I host with you instead of going direct to a foreign provider?
Three real reasons most clients give us:
Local support — when something breaks at midnight, a real person on WhatsApp beats a ticketing system every time
One invoice in KES — domain, SSL, hosting, email all on one bill, paid via M-Pesa
Setup done for you — we configure WordPress, email, SSL, and DNS so you never have to touch cPanel
If you're technically savvy and only care about the cheapest possible price, going direct to a foreign provider can save you a few thousand shillings a year. If you'd rather have your hosting just work and someone to call when it doesn't, we're better value.

Is the .co.ke domain really free?
Yes — for the first year of any annual hosting plan. From year 2, .co.ke renewal is KES 1,500/year, billed separately. The domain is registered in YOUR name and you own it forever.
What happens if I want to leave?
Your website, files, and domain belong to you. We provide a complete export of your account on request — files, databases, and email — so your new host can take over the migration. No lock-in clauses. No hostage situations.
Do you handle technical issues for clients?
Yes. If something breaks — WordPress error, plugin conflict, SSL renewal issue — message us on WhatsApp and we'll fix it. You don't need to know the technical details.
Is my website fast enough for Kenya?
Yes. Our infrastructure includes CDN integration so visitors from Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda see fast load times. Most sites we host load in under 2 seconds on 4G.
Do you support WooCommerce / online stores?
Yes — we recommend the E-commerce plan for serious online retail. It's tuned for the higher resource demands of WooCommerce and similar platforms.
What if my business outgrows your largest plan?
We can quote you something custom for high-traffic sites or businesses with multiple complex websites. Get in touch.
