What an ecommerce website design expert actually changes for a Chittagong seller
Most Chittagong stores do not lose sales because they are ugly. They lose sales at the parts a designer never tested.
Here is the difference between a web designer and an ecommerce website design expert, and it is the whole reason this page exists. A general designer gives you a store that looks clean in screenshots. An expert has watched enough stores actually run to know that the order you lose is rarely lost on the homepage. It is lost when a Reazuddin Bazar buyer on a two-bar connection in CDA Avenue traffic gives up on a checkout that takes eight seconds to respond.
It is lost when the bKash step is a phone number pasted into a comment box and the buyer no longer trusts that the money will reach you. It is lost when cash-on-delivery has no area selector that matches how Steadfast zones Chattogram, so the courier returns the parcel and you eat the cost. I have built enough stores to know where the orders leak, and that is what you are actually hiring.
I am RH Fardin, a website designer and developer based in Bangladesh with roughly five years of full-time work behind me, and ecommerce is the larger half of it. The Chattogram sellers who come to me looking for an expert, not just any developer, are usually past their first store. They already sell on Facebook, they already move real volume, and they have either outgrown a fragile build from a local shop or been quoted three lakh by a Dhaka agency that treated a port-city brief as an afterthought.
They do not want to gamble the second time. They want one person who has shipped working stores, will own the whole thing, and will tell them straight which of their ideas will lift orders and which will just add cost.
Being the expert means I design every store myself, write the code that ships, and pick up the phone myself. There is no account manager forwarding your WhatsApp messages and no junior rebuilding your shop in week two while a senior name sits on the contract.
My starting price for a Chittagong ecommerce store is 50,000 BDT, and that is a real mobile-first store: a working catalog, bKash and Nagad checkout, cash-on-delivery wired the way couriers actually zone the city, an admin panel you update from your phone at the shop counter, and the SEO and speed groundwork in place at launch. The tiers run 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT as your catalog and feature depth grow, and a fully custom platform starts at 3,00,000 BDT.
The terms are simple and they protect you: 50% advance, 50% on launch, and you formally approve the full design before that final payment is due. You are not paying for an office in Dhaka, a layer of managers, or a margin on people you never meet. You are paying for the one person who actually does the work and who has done it enough times to know the difference between a store that launches and a store that sells. In Chattogram, where people understand stock, margin and supplier terms better than almost anyone, that distinction is the one worth paying for.
