Website Maintenance in Uganda
Website maintenance is the ongoing work of keeping a live site secure and current: applying software updates, patching vulnerabilities, testing backups, monitoring uptime and making routine content changes. For organisations in Uganda, that work has to answer to a specific market. We work with Ugandan clients the same way we work with Nairobi clients an hour away by road: same time zone, same working week, same delivery process. What changes is payments, mobile money and the competitive landscape in Kampala.

Market context
Why Kampala changes the brief
- MTN Mobile Money and Airtel Money dominate payments, so checkout has to be built around them rather than cards.
- Kampala's market is less saturated than Nairobi, and a well-executed site still ranks quickly for commercial terms.
- Cross-border trade with Kenya makes multi-currency pricing and regional content genuinely useful, not decorative.
- East African Community alignment means one team can serve both markets with consistent branding and systems.
