Registering a .co.ke domain is one of the first real steps in getting your Kenyan business online, and the process is more straightforward than most people expect.
Step 1: Check Availability
Start by searching your desired name on our domain search page. Have a few backup options ready — your first choice may already be taken.
Step 2: Choose the Right Extension
.co.ke is the standard choice for Kenyan businesses, but there are other options depending on your organisation type: .ac.ke for academic institutions, .or.ke for NGOs and associations, and .sc.ke for schools.
Step 3: Provide Your Details
You'll need basic registrant information — name, email, phone number, and physical address. This is standard for all domain registrations and is required by KENIC, the official Kenyan domain registry.
Step 4: Complete Payment
Domain registration is a simple checkout, payable via M-Pesa or card, same as any other order on your account.
Step 5: Domain Goes Live
Once registered, your domain is typically active within minutes to a few hours. If you're bundling it with hosting, we'll automatically connect the two so your site is reachable right away.
Bonus: Get It Free
Many of our hosting plans include a free domain for the first year, so check that before registering separately.
