WordPress Development
in Kenya
Security-hardened WordPress websites built by developers who know WordPress inside out — including its vulnerabilities. Custom themes, WooCommerce stores, and M-Pesa integration for Kenyan businesses.
WordPress Can Be Powerful — or Painful
WordPress powers 43% of all websites, but without expert setup, it can become a liability instead of an asset for your business.
Security Vulnerabilities
Outdated plugins and weak configurations leave WordPress sites exposed to hackers. Over 90,000 WordPress sites are attacked every minute — we know firsthand.
Slow Loading Speeds
Bloated themes and too many plugins slow your site to a crawl. On Kenyan 3G/4G networks, a slow WordPress site means lost customers who won't wait.
Generic Templates
Most WordPress developers use the same ThemeForest templates. Your business ends up looking like every other site — no brand identity, no competitive edge.
Poor Mobile Experience
Over 80% of Kenyan internet users browse on mobile. A WordPress site that isn't optimized for Samsung, Tecno, and Infinix devices loses most of its potential traffic.
No M-Pesa Integration
Most WordPress templates don't support M-Pesa out of the box. Kenyan customers expect to pay via Lipa Na M-Pesa — without it, you're leaving money on the table.
Plugin Overload
Too many plugins create conflicts, break updates, and open security holes. A typical WordPress site runs 20-30 plugins when it should use fewer than 10.
WordPress Done Right
Custom Theme Development
Every theme is designed and coded from scratch to match your brand. No ThemeForest templates, no Elementor bloat — just clean, fast, purpose-built design.
Security-First Architecture
Our own WordPress site was hacked. That experience drives our security-first approach: minimal plugins, WAF protection, 2FA, automated backups, and malware scanning on every build.
Kenya-Optimized Performance
Built for Kenyan networks with image optimization, lazy loading, CDN integration, and caching. Your site loads fast on Safaricom, Airtel, and Telkom connections.
M-Pesa & Local Payments
Native M-Pesa STK Push integration, Pesapal, iPay, and card payments. Your WooCommerce store accepts payments the way Kenyans prefer to pay.
Honest Guidance
We'll tell you when WordPress is the right choice — and when a custom-coded site would serve you better. We offer both, so our advice is always in your best interest.
