Cheap website development in Chattogram — priced fairly, built on code you actually own.
I'm RH Fardin. I design, develop and ship every site myself — no agency, no juniors. If you've been ringing around Agrabad and GEC for a developer and the quotes range from 9,000 to 1,80,000 taka, here's the part nobody explains: most of those aren't building the same thing. This is cheap website development in Chattogram done as actual development — clean code, hosting in your name, from 50,000 BDT.
From 50,000 BDT. 50% advance via bKash/Nagad/bank, 50% on launch. ~5 years building in Bangladesh, one senior operator, design-approval guarantee.
+Trusted by 50+ founders, agencies and teams across Bangladesh and beyond.

The word that trips up most Chattogram owners is "development." When you ask around GEC or Agrabad for cheap website development, half the people quoting you aren't developers at all — they install a free theme, change the colours, drop your logo on top, and call it a build. That's why the numbers come back so scattered: 9,000 taka here, 1,80,000 there, and no way to tell what separates them. The difference isn't the design you see on screen — it's everything underneath.
Real development means code structured so it can be changed, hosting you actually control, forms wired to deliver, and a database that won't choke the day you add your fiftieth product. The cheap quote almost never includes any of that, because the person quoting it doesn't know how to build it.
Chattogram's economy makes this worse than most cities, because so much of the business here is import, trade and logistics — port-side firms, C&F agents, freight and shipping offices, hardware and machinery importers around Khatunganj and Reazuddin Bazar. These businesses don't need a pretty brochure; they need a site that holds a real product or service catalogue, handles enquiries from buyers who may be in Dhaka or overseas, and loads on a phone over patchy port-area 4G.
A template developer can't deliver that — the moment your list runs past a handful of items, or you want a quote form that routes to the right person, the theme starts fighting them. So you pay 9,000 taka, hit the wall in two months, and pay again to have it rebuilt properly. The cheap development was the most expensive version.
I'm RH Fardin, and I'm the only person who touches your project — I plan it, design it, write the code, set up the hosting and SSL, wire the forms, and do the on-page SEO myself. About five years of this for Bangladeshi businesses: importers, garments suppliers, clinics, schools, real estate and shop owners. The reason I can keep low cost website development in Chattogram genuinely low is structural: no office in GEC, no sales layer, no junior practicing on your business, no Dhaka-agency markup riding on top. You're paying for the build, not for the building it sits in — that's where the saving actually comes from, not from skipping the work.
And the number holds. I quote one figure before we start — from 50,000 BDT — you pay 50% to begin and 50% the day the site goes live, and you approve the design before I write a single line of code. No "bhai, eta toh extra" halfway through for the SSL, the contact form, or making it mobile-friendly. If every developer you've spoken to in Chattogram has given you a different answer to the same question, the thing you're really buying from me is a straight one.
Cheap doesn't have to mean a template with your logo stretched on top. Six things you get at the floor price — and why each one matters for how a Chattogram trade or service business actually operates.
A clean WordPress or Next.js build chosen for your business, not a marketplace theme with twenty plugins fighting each other. It can be extended next year without a rebuild — which is where most cheap Chattogram sites quietly turn expensive.
Structured to hold a real list of products, services or shipments and let a buyer find the right one fast. The template guy hits a wall at item fifty; a proper build doesn't even notice.
Your buyers open the site on a phone, often on shaky network between Agrabad and the port. I develop and test on the small screen first, on real budget Androids, because that's where the enquiry comes from.
A 'Pay via bKash' block or quote form with proper number masking and a copy button, so customers actually use it instead of calling to ask. Full gateway checkout sits at the 90,000 BDT tier when you genuinely need it.
Contact form, quote form and WhatsApp click-to-chat all tested from a real Chattogram connection before launch — with SMTP set up properly, so you never get the 'bhai, keu message korche na' surprise a week later.
Domain in your name, hosting in your name, admin and database access handed over, source code if it's a custom build. Fire me tomorrow and the entire site walks out with you. That part is non-negotiable.
Here's the practical problem: when three people in Chattogram quote you for website development, you're comparing numbers that describe completely different things, and the cheapest one looks like the obvious winner. So ask each of them the same five questions and watch the price suddenly make sense. Is this custom code or a marketplace theme? Whose name is the hosting and domain registered in — mine or yours? Is the contact form going to a real inbox and tested, or just placed on the page?
Is on-page SEO done by hand or left to a plugin's defaults? And when something breaks in month two, who answers and at what cost? The 9,000-taka quote almost always answers those badly — template, their hosting, untested form, no SEO, nobody answering. That's not a cheaper version of my work; it's a different product wearing the same word.
What I won't do is go below the floor, and I'll tell you plainly why. Under 50,000 BDT, nobody in Chattogram is writing clean code, setting up hosting you own, doing real on-page SEO, and still around when the form breaks — they're flipping a template and moving to the next buyer.
The 50,000 BDT tier is a defined package: five to seven pages, one round of design changes, a working enquiry system, basic on-page SEO, and a 30-day post-launch fix window, so you can budget it with no surprise tail. Need more — a real shop with checkout, a bilingual Bangla-English structure, a catalogue with filtering, a booking flow?
That's the 90,000 BDT or 1,50,000 BDT tier, and anything genuinely bespoke like a buyer portal, order tracking or a shipment dashboard for a logistics firm starts at 3,00,000 BDT. On the first call I'll tell you which one your business actually needs — not which one bills the most.

Straight answers to what Chattogram business owners actually ask me before they book the cheap development tier.
My honest floor is 50,000 BDT for a 5-7 page site built as real development — clean code, mobile-responsive, a working enquiry form, basic on-page SEO, and a 30-day fix window after launch. You'll find lower quotes around Chattogram, but those are almost always templates with no real code or support underneath. The three tiers are 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT depending on what your business actually needs, and genuinely custom work starts at 3,00,000 BDT. Payment is always 50% advance, 50% on launch — you never pay it all before the site is live.
They're not building the same thing. The 10,000-taka quote is a free theme recoloured with your logo on it — no real code structure, hosting on the developer's account, a contact form that's never tested, and nobody around when it breaks. My 50,000 BDT is actual development: clean code that can be extended, hosting and domain in your name, forms tested from a real connection, and on-page SEO done by hand. Over a couple of years, mine replaces three of those cheap rebuilds. I'd rather be the honest 50,000 than the 10,000 that quietly costs you 70,000 by the time it's redone.
At the 50,000 BDT floor I can build a clean structure for a moderate catalogue — services, a product range, or a list a buyer can browse. If you're a Khatunganj importer or a port-area trade firm with a large catalogue, filtering, or a real order or quote workflow, that's the 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT tier, because a template simply can't hold it without falling over. The point of building on real code instead of a theme is exactly this: you can start at the cheap tier and grow into the larger structure later without tearing it down.
Yours, always — and this is one of the first things to check on any cheap Chattogram quote. I register the domain in your name and set up hosting on an account you own and control. On a custom build you also get the source code and database access on launch. The cheap template sellers often keep the hosting on their own account so you stay dependent on them; that's the opposite of how I work. If you ever want to move on, the whole site goes with you, no one holding your cPanel hostage.
Yes. The 50% advance can come via bKash, Nagad, bank transfer (Dutch-Bangla, BRAC, City, EBL), or international wire if you're paying from outside Bangladesh — useful for the diaspora-owned and overseas-buyer businesses common in Chattogram trade. You get a proper invoice with a transaction reference field so it goes through your books cleanly. The final 50% is due on launch day, before I point your domain at the live site. No third instalment, no hidden tail.
No — that's the whole reason I build on real code and hand over ownership. Because the site isn't a locked template, any developer can pick it up, but most Chattogram clients stay because changes go through one person who already knows the project: me, on WhatsApp, same working day. There's a design-approval guarantee too — I send the homepage design before writing any code, and if you genuinely don't like it after one revision round, I refund the advance minus a small fee for design work already done. You can book the cheap tier without worrying you're trapped or paying a stranger online.
