Getting online in Kenya starts with two things: a domain name and web hosting. This guide explains how much domains and hosting cost in Kenya in 2026, in Kenyan shillings, with no hidden-fee surprises.

Web hosting pricing in Kenya
Hosting is billed monthly or annually (annual is usually cheaper per month). Every Amocsoft plan includes free SSL, daily backups, unlimited bandwidth and cPanel. Plans scale from a first website up to high-traffic sites — see current KES pricing on the web hosting page.
Watch out for renewal costs
A common trap is a cheap first-year price that jumps at renewal. Always check the renewal price, not just the intro offer. Amocsoft keeps pricing transparent — what you pay now is what you renew at.
Should you buy domain and hosting together?
Yes — buying your domain and hosting from one provider means they connect instantly, you get one bill in KES, and one local team to support you. It’s simpler and avoids configuration headaches.
