What Makes a Good Business Website in Kenya?
Speed, clarity and an easy way to get in touch matter more than flashy effects. Here's what to focus on.
By Derrick Ndakala, Graphic Designer
A business website has one job: help the right people understand what you offer and make it easy for them to contact you. Everything else supports that.
Design for phones first
Most Kenyan visitors browse on mobile data. Pages should load quickly, text should be readable without zooming, and buttons should be easy to tap.
Say what you do in one sentence
Visitors decide in seconds whether they're in the right place. A clear headline that names your service and who it's for beats a clever slogan.
Make contact effortless
- A clickable phone number
- A WhatsApp button
- A short enquiry form that actually reaches you
- Your physical location, if customers visit
Build trust with real proof
Show real work, real team members and genuine reviews. Never invent testimonials — customers can tell, and it damages credibility.
Give Google something to understand
Each page should have its own title and description, one clear main heading and useful content. Separate pages for each service help you appear for specific searches.
