How Long Does It Take to Build a Website in Nairobi?

Short answer: 2-8 weeks for most projects. The actual timeline depends on the type of site, how quickly you provide content, and the complexity of custom features.

Landing Page: 3-5 Days

A single-page landing page for a campaign or product launch can be designed, built, and deployed within a week. These are focused pages with one goal — conversions.

Business Website: 2-4 Weeks

A standard business website with 5-10 pages typically takes 2-4 weeks. This includes discovery, design, development, content integration, and testing.

WordPress Website: 2-3 Weeks

WordPress sites can move faster since the CMS provides built-in functionality. Custom themes take longer than pre-built ones, but the result is worth the extra days.

E-Commerce Website: 4-8 Weeks

E-commerce sites take longer because of product setup, payment integration (especially M-Pesa), shipping configuration, and extensive testing.

What Slows Things Down

• •Delayed content — waiting for photos, copy, or approvals
• •Scope changes mid-project
• •Multiple revision rounds
• •Third-party integrations (payment gateways, APIs)

How to Speed Things Up

Have your content ready before design starts. Provide clear feedback in one round instead of multiple small changes. Define your requirements upfront so we can plan accurately.
