How I keep it genuinely cheap in Chittagong — without it being cheap-looking
The honest mechanics are fixed scope plus zero overhead, not corner-cutting. The 50,000 BDT tier is a defined package: five to seven pages, one round of design changes, your content and brand colours, a working enquiry form that delivers to your inbox and WhatsApp, basic on-page SEO, and a 30-day post-launch fix window. Because the scope is locked, I can quote it with confidence and you can budget it with no surprise tail. The second half is that I'm not an agency and I'm not paying for a building.
There's no office in GEC, no project manager forwarding your messages, no junior learning on your project — you message me, I design it, I code it, I deploy it. That stripped-out layer is the entire reason a Chittagong shop owner can get senior-level work at 50,000 BDT instead of a capital-city markup.
What I won't do is go below that floor, and I'll tell you plainly why. Under 50,000 BDT, nobody in Chittagong is writing clean code, setting up hosting you actually own, doing real on-page SEO, and still around to answer when the form breaks — they're flipping a template and moving to the next buyer.
So if your budget is honestly under 50,000 BDT, I'll say so on the first call and point you to a real template option that's upfront about being a template, instead of selling you a Chattogram-Facebook-group special that dies before the next Eid and lands on someone else's desk to fix.
And if you need more than the starter — a real shop with checkout, a bilingual Bangla-English structure, a booking flow — that's the 90,000 BDT or 1,50,000 BDT tier, and anything genuinely bespoke like a buyer portal or order tracking starts at 3,00,000 BDT. I'll tell you on the first call which one your business actually needs, not which one bills the most.
