What "cheap" honestly means for a Rajshahi WordPress site
There is cheap, and there is a 9,000 taka site you pay for twice.
It usually goes the same way. You post in a Rajshahi business group or ask a porichito developer for a WordPress website, and the quotes come back wild — 8,000 taka from a student, 15,000 from someone's cousin, 50,000 from me. Naturally the first instinct is to take the cheapest one, because on paper it is the same words: "WordPress website." The problem is that the words describe two completely different things.
The 8,000 taka version is a nulled theme, a dozen plugins piled on to fake the features, no documentation, no training, and a developer who keeps your admin password and stops replying once the money clears. The 50,000 taka version is a licensed, lean, properly built site you own outright, from one person who is still there months later. Same label, opposite outcome. This page is me being honest about which one you are actually buying.
The reason I can keep it genuinely affordable is not magic and it is not corner-cutting — it is that you are paying one senior operator, not an agency. There is no salesman, no account manager forwarding your messages, no junior practising on your project, and no Gulshan office rent baked into the invoice.
Rajshahi is a price-sensitive market — a coaching centre near the university, a silk or handloom seller around Sopura, a small agro or food business in Boalia is not working with a Dhaka corporate budget, and I do not pretend otherwise. So I scope the 50,000 BDT build tightly and honestly: a focused five-to-seven-page WordPress site, done properly, rather than a forty-page promise that gets abandoned half-built. That is how cheap stays real instead of becoming a trap.
Where I will not bend is on the things that quietly decide whether your site survives its first year. Every theme and plugin is properly licensed — no nulled builds pulled from a Facebook group that go on injecting spam links into your footer long after launch. The plugin stack stays lean, usually under ten, because most of your Rajshahi visitors are on a mid-range Android over mobile data near Shaheb Bazar or the campus, and a bloated site is a slow, fragile site.
And on launch day every login — WordPress admin, hosting, domain — goes to you in writing, with a recorded Bangla walkthrough so you can edit prices, add a batch, or post new stock yourself. The cheapest quotes win precisely by skipping all three. That saving is the bill you pay later.
The pricing is fixed and there is nothing hidden behind it. 50,000 BDT is my floor for a clean, licensed WordPress business site of around five to seven pages with the basics done right — on-page SEO, a working contact form with WhatsApp click-to-chat, Google Analytics, SSL, and that recorded walkthrough so you run it yourself. 90,000 BDT and 1,50,000 BDT add more pages, WooCommerce, or bilingual Bangla and English. Fully custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT.
Always 50% advance via bKash, Nagad or bank transfer, 50% on launch, and a written design approval before any code. Below 50,000 BDT I simply will not quote — not to upsell you, but because I have cleaned up enough of those builds to know what they truly cost their owners.
