Simply IT was established in 2016. Working initially from an office built in her home Shireen, slowly grew a solid client base, using her skills in marketing and a strong network of technical ability in Zanzibar and in Dar es Salaam.
Simply IT was represented strongly at the October 2018 Zanzibar Tourism Show and steadily expanded it's technical team to accommodate the resulting increase in customers.
With a steady increase in the number of clients in Zanzibar requiring web-design, online marketing and e-commerce Simply IT added to its international team of professionals.
Despite the challenges of a worldwide Covid-19 crisis, Simply IT continued to grow. Shireen recruited a European who was living in Stone Town. He is an expert in web-development, Search Engine and Social Media Optimisation. This allowed Simply IT to continue to grow sustainably and locally to facilitate businesses in the tourism sector to consolidate their online marketing presence even in the challenges of the pandemic. Towards the end of the year Simply IT added more to its international team and finished the year strongly.
Simply IT has seen steady growth in 2021. More clients and expansion of our services as Covid-19 subsided. We recruited a new developer and welcomed, Arsheen a new Social Media expert to the team. We are now looking to add another local SEO and hardware expert. As the world recovers from a global pandemic businesses are seeing the need for more online presence, contactless solutions and e-commerce websites to promote and sell services and products. May 2021 saw a major shift in how Google Search deals with websites. (See our knowledgebase article about the Google Search changes here).
We successfully implemented several internet, wifi and firewall WAN/LAN solutions for hotels and educational establishments.
Simply IT grows steadily. In 2022 growth accelerated through the gears. Simply IT added three new members to the team. A Kenyan website developer, a developer and server hosting technician in Tanzania, and an intern in Zanzibar. All to helping to provide a high degree of professionalism to over 30 clients, top quality website design, 24/7 customer support and speed across all our other services.
In 2023 we hit the road running. 5 websites designed for Zanzibar, East African and UK clients went live in the first week of January. We added 2 digital marketing social responsible projects one in Zanzibar and one in UK. These are projects we do free as a donation to charitable causes. If you are an NGO check us out for discounts. Like the rest of the world we have gone from a jog to a sprint in the Artificial Intelligence race that will see every sector affected by AI. Not just SEO, Digital Marketing, Website Design and web development... but every aspect of life on the planet. We have taken on two new staff and moved to new offices at Migoz Plaza in Zanzibar. 2023 became an interesting year for websites in other languages and in Europe!
We have now created websites in Europe and in East Africa. Our vision is to expand globally like ripples on a pond. We added two more website developers from Kenya and Tanzania to the team in the first week of January 2024. We partnered with a professional photographer for content creation for Social Media Management Team.
Simply IT Global opened our Europe office on 8th April 2024 in Covent Garden, London UK. Our East Africa office continues to be based in Zanzibar, Tanzania.

Check out our blog that can be found on our website linked in our bio. Learn more about the importance of multilingual websites in Tanzania and why you should apply this to yours!
Here`s a glimpse...
“Tanzania is a diverse and multilingual country, with over 120 languages spoken by its population of about 60 million people.
One of the biggest sectors in the Tanzania economy is tourism. Safaris, and beach holidays in locations like Zanzibar.
However, many websites in Tanzania are only available in English, which is not even the first language of most Tanzanians, let alone the hordes of tourists that flock to the country every year to stay in hotels, visit places of interest and go on Safari.”
