The freelancer behind the store
You hire one person in Dhaka, not a rotating cast
Most Dhaka business owners who message me about a freelance ecommerce developer have already been burned once. Usually it goes like this: a young freelancer on Fiverr or a friend-of-a-friend promised a Daraz-style store for 15,000 taka, took the advance, installed a free WooCommerce theme, never wired bKash properly, and stopped replying after the first revision. The store sits half-built. The Facebook page keeps getting orders the website cannot fulfil. Then the search starts again — this time for someone who will actually finish the job.
That is the gap I fill. I am RH Fardin, working out of Dhaka for roughly five years on ecommerce builds for clothing brands, electronics resellers, beauty brands, food businesses and importers across Bangladesh. I do the discovery call, the design in Figma, the WooCommerce or Shopify build, the bKash/Nagad/SSLCommerz integration, the courier setup with Pathao, Steadfast or RedX, and the handover training over Zoom or in person in Dhaka. Same person, start to finish.
Being a freelancer is not a downgrade from an agency — for a Dhaka ecommerce store it is usually the upgrade. There is no project manager translating your Bangla into a brief for a junior developer. You explain what your customers do on Facebook Live, I build the cart around that. When a product variant breaks at 10pm, you message me, not a ticket system that replies in three working days.
My base ecommerce build starts at 50,000 BDT for a focused store with bKash, Nagad and COD wired, around 20–30 products loaded, and a checkout that survives 3G connections in mofussil areas. Tiers go to 90,000 BDT and 1,50,000 BDT as the catalogue, payment methods and automation grow. Full custom ecommerce platforms with ERP sync, multi-vendor or wholesale logic start from 3,00,000 BDT. Payment terms are simple: 50% advance, 50% on launch, design-approval guarantee in writing.
