What domain and hosting actually costs in Dhaka
The number on the quote slip isn't the whole price
Nobody tells Dhaka business owners the truth about domain and hosting price in Dhaka. Say you took a CNG to an IT firm near IDB Bhaban or in a Motijheel side-building. That office does not host your site. It resells hosting from someone, who often resells it from someone else. The friendly bhai who set it all up on his laptop may not even work there in a year.
When your site goes down at 9 PM, the number on that quote slip stops mattering. The real question becomes who actually holds the panel.
I'm RH Fardin, a solo website designer and developer. I have spent about five years building and shipping sites for businesses around Dhaka and across Bangladesh. In that time, I have set up domains and hosting hundreds of times, usually as part of a website project.
I have also inherited plenty of messes. Some clients came to me because a Dhaka vendor went quiet. Others were quoted 800 taka for the domain, and then the vendor sat on the renewal as leverage. So I have seen which registrars and hosts renew cleanly and which ones are built to trap you.
When you work with me, the domain and hosting line is a pass-through, not a profit centre. I register through the real provider: Namecheap, Cloudflare, Hostinger, or a local host like Exonhost if you want a BD company. It goes in your name, with your email and your card or your bKash payment on record.
You see exactly what the .com or .com.bd costs at the registrar and what the hosting plan costs. You also see a small one-time setup charge for my time to set up DNS, SSL and email forwarding. There is no bundled domain that you cannot transfer out.
Most people asking about domain and hosting price in Dhaka are really asking two things. What does a working website cost? And what does it cost each year to keep it alive? I answer both before you commit. The website starts at 50,000 BDT, with tiers at 50,000, 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT. Custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT.
You pay 50% in advance and 50% on launch. My design-approval guarantee means you sign off on how it looks before we go live. Domain and hosting sit on top as a separate, honest line.
