Web Development
Fast, accessible websites and web applications built for every Kenyan user.
Your website is the first thing a potential client in Nairobi checks before picking up the phone. A slow, mobile-unfriendly, or hard-to-find website loses you business every day, quietly, without you knowing. We build web presences that work: fast on Kenyan mobile connections, easy to find on Google, and designed to turn visitors into enquiries. Whether you need a corporate website, a customer portal, or a full web application, we build it right.

What We Do
Everything included in our Web Development service.
Corporate & Marketing Websites
Professional corporate websites that present your business credibly to potential clients, with clear service descriptions, case studies, contact flows, and the performance and SEO foundations that help you appear in search results when your clients are looking.
Custom Web Applications
When off-the-shelf software does not fit your workflow, we build custom web applications: internal tools, customer portals, data dashboards, booking systems, and anything else your business runs on. We design for your actual users and processes, not a generic template.
E-Commerce Development
Online stores built for Kenyan buyers: M-Pesa checkout, local delivery integrations, and inventory management. We build on appropriate platforms, custom-built for complex requirements, or well-configured Shopify and WooCommerce for straightforward retail.
CMS Integration
We integrate content management systems so your team can update website content without developer help. We work with headless CMS platforms (Keystatic, Contentful, Strapi) and traditional platforms depending on your team's technical comfort level.
Performance & Core Web Vitals
Slow websites lose visitors and rank lower on Google. We optimise for Core Web Vitals with a particular focus on performance over African 3G and 4G connections where the difference is most felt by your users.
SEO Foundation
We build SEO best practices into every website: proper heading hierarchy, schema markup, canonical URLs, sitemap generation, and mobile-first indexing compliance. This is not SEO as an add-on, it is the correct way to build a website.
Responsive & Mobile-First Design
The majority of Kenyan web users browse on mobile. We design mobile-first: ensuring your website works beautifully on small screens, slow connections, and mid-range devices before scaling up to desktop layouts.
API Integrations
We integrate your website with third-party services: payment gateways, CRM systems, email marketing platforms, WhatsApp Business, analytics tools, and any other service your business workflow depends on.
Why Afriq Silicon
What makes our Web Development service different.
We understand the Kenyan web landscape
We know that your clients are searching on Google Kenya, browsing on mobile data, and comparing you to local competitors on small screens. Our web development reflects this: local SEO signals, M-Pesa payment options, and performance tuned for African connections.
We build, not just design
Some agencies produce beautiful Figma mockups and then hand implementation to a junior developer who cannot execute the design. We design and build in the same team, what we show you in design is what you get in production.
No template shortcuts
We do not resell WordPress themes or drag-and-drop website builders. We build custom, which means your website loads faster, is not identical to your competitors', and can be extended exactly as your business needs without fighting a template's limitations.
