Websites for businesses and organisations in Bujumbura, Gitega and across Burundi, with free SSL and daily backups on every plan, from a team in Nairobi. Plans start at KSh 80$0.62/month.
Plans & Pricing Start a live chatBurundi and Kenya are both members of the East African Community, and many Burundian organisations already work with partners in Nairobi, Kampala and Kigali. A website and email on your own domain are part of looking like a serious partner to them.
Every SiteBoma plan gives you the basics that make that work: a control panel with your own login, a backup every day that you can restore yourself, an SSL certificate that renews on its own and mailboxes on your own domain. Our hosting server is in the United Kingdom, and our team works from Nairobi.
One thing to know before you write to us: our team answers in English only. We do not staff French or Kirundi, and we would rather say so here than leave you waiting.
Organisations reporting to donors and partners across the region.
Businesses in Bujumbura that trade with partners in Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda or Tanzania.
Producers and washing stations that need foreign buyers to find a credible site.
Institutions publishing admissions and results online.
Hotels in Bujumbura and on the lake whose guests book from abroad.
People hosting client sites who want DirectAdmin, SSH and staging.
Our hosting server is not in Kenya: it is in the United Kingdom, and it serves our Kenyan customers too. Help by live chat, email or ticket comes from our Nairobi team, on East Africa Time.
You will not find a made-up latency number here. Instead, our live status page tests our website, the hosting server, mail, the payment gateway and the domain registry once a minute, and keeps the honest record, bad days included.
Good to know in Burundi
As well as .com, .org and 200+ other extensions, we can register the ones that belong to Burundi. Our team handles these country domains by hand, so they are not instant at checkout: allow one business day. The invoice comes first, and we confirm the domain once registration completes. Look at the renewal column before you decide, since some extensions cost more to renew than to register.
| Extension | Register | Renew | Transfer in | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| .bi | KSh 5,390$41.46/yr | KSh 7,310$56.23/yr | KSh 7,310$56.23/yr | Check |
Anyone can register a .bi, including companies outside Burundi, without a local contact. The name must match your business name or one of your trademarks, it needs at least three characters, and the owner's name and postal address are public.
These figures come straight from our live catalogue, so the price shown is the price charged. Still undecided? Our guide on picking a domain name works just as well beyond Kenya's borders.
Ways to pay
What we cannot accept, so checkout holds no surprises
M-Pesa at our checkout means Safaricom M-Pesa in Kenya and nothing else. Burundian mobile money services are not available at checkout. Better that you read it here than find out halfway through paying.
No VAT is added to our prices. Should your accountant need the invoice laid out a certain way for local bookkeeping, tell us and we will issue it in that format.
Let us know who hosts you now, which domain you use and roughly how large the site is. Live chat gets the quickest reply.
Your files, databases and mailboxes come over to our server and are tested there, while the old site carries on running.
A preview link lets you inspect the new copy. Your visitors see no change until you approve it.
Change the nameservers yourself, or let us do it when the domain is registered with us. Every paid plan includes the move free.
One team and one set of plans cover each of these:
