What really drives the price of an affordable corporate site in Dhaka
Ask any Dhaka designer 'koto taka?' and the honest answer depends on three things, and almost nothing else. First, how many pages have real, distinct content. A typical corporate site has 6 to 12 pages. These are Home, About, Leadership, Services (often split into sub-services), Industries, Case Studies or Projects, Careers, News or Notice, and Contact. Some also need a Compliance or Investor Relations page.
At 50,000 BDT, I will ship the first 6 pages properly. The 90,000 BDT tier covers the full 10 to 12. The 1,50,000 BDT tier adds custom illustrations, a downloadable company profile PDF, a careers application flow and a press or media area. Second, do you have copy and photos, or do I need to write and find them? Most Dhaka SMEs hand me a folder of mixed-quality JPGs and a Word file from 2019. I will rewrite the copy in clean corporate English and clean up the photos.
But a proper photoshoot in your Tejgaon office is a separate cost from a photographer, not from me. Third, the small things that quietly add hours. Think of a language switcher, or ISO badges that need redrawing from a blurry scan. Think of a careers portal that emails HR with the CV attached, a partner login area, or a link to your existing CRM or HR system. Words like 'animation', 'modern look', 'parallax' and 'professional design' do not drive the price. They are just noise.
Any good senior designer in Dhaka can give you a modern, animated, professional look at 50,000 BDT. The real question is whether the structure underneath shows your company the way a serious buyer needs to see it. That is where the line between affordable and cheap sits. A cheap corporate site is a template with your logo. An affordable one, done right, is a carefully scoped version of the 3,00,000 BDT site. Same thinking, fewer pages, same finish. That is what you get from me.
