No reselling your project to a junior, no Karwan Bazar boiler-room team, no 30-page audit copied out of a free tool. You hire one person, and that person is the one typing.

Search "freelance SEO expert in Dhaka" and you get hundreds of profiles, and most of them are the same trick wearing different photos. A confident message on WhatsApp, a polished PDF audit, a price that feels too good, and then your project quietly gets handed to a part-timer in Mirpur or a Fiverr account in another country who has never seen your business. The person you thought you hired becomes a middleman. By month two the replies slow down, and by month three you are explaining your own website back to a stranger. If you have lived this once, you already know why "koto taka?" in this city comes loaded with suspicion.
I work the opposite way, and it is the whole reason this page exists. I am a freelance SEO consultant based in Dhaka with around five years doing real search work, for service businesses around Gulshan and Dhanmondi, shops and D2C brands selling on COD and bKash, exporters in Tejgaon, and a few clients abroad targeting the Bangladesh market. Every keyword I pull, every title I rewrite, every internal link and schema fix and Search Console query I act on is done by me. There is no account manager, no junior learning on your domain, and nobody to hide behind when a month is slow.
What makes my read on Dhaka sharper than most is that I also run Google Ads. I have watched, in real campaigns, which Dhaka queries turn into bKash payments and phone calls and which ones just spend budget and flatter a report. That conversion data feeds my SEO directly. When I tell you a keyword is worth ranking for, it is because I have either seen it convert in Ads or I can show you the Search Console impressions proving Dhaka buyers are already typing it, not because a tool guessed a volume.
I keep the roster small on purpose, usually three to five active clients, because honest on-page and content work does not get faster by adding bodies to it. You get my personal number, a shared Google Sheet that updates through the month, and a plain walkthrough of what moved, what did not, and what is next. For Dhaka clients I am happy to sit down once in person, Gulshan or Banani is easy for me, to align before we start. After that, remote is faster for both of us. If you want one senior person who stays on your project from the first audit to the rankings, we should talk.
Six things you get from a freelance SEO expert who does the work himself, instead of an agency package or a profile that resells your project the moment you pay.
The person you message on WhatsApp is the person editing your title tags and reading your Search Console. Your project is never quietly resold to a cheaper junior or an overseas Fiverr account.
Your keyword map, on-page edits and content briefs stay with one brain that remembers what we tried last month. No new account manager relearning your Dhaka business every quarter.
I write for how Dhaka actually searches, area by area, mixing "koto taka", "in Dhaka" and thana-level queries. A Gulshan buyer and a Mirpur buyer do not search the same way, and your pages should know that.
Because I also run Google Ads in Dhaka, I pick targets using real conversion data, not raw search volume. We chase keywords I have seen turn into payments and calls, not vanity rankings.
A live Google Sheet with rankings, GSC clicks, indexed pages and the exact tasks I did. No screenshots of impressions dressed up as progress. If a month was slow, the report says it plainly.
No 200 PBN links for 5,000 taka. Real outreach, genuine Bangladeshi directories, supplier and partner mentions, and properly placed guest posts. Slower to earn, but they survive the next update.
Dhaka business owners usually weigh three options, and each fails in its own way. The cheap freelancer at 8,000 to 15,000 BDT a month is almost never doing the work alone, that price only math out if your project gets resold to someone cheaper, which is exactly how it ends up with a part-timer who has never opened your CMS.
The agency in Banani or Karwan Bazar sells you a clean package and a friendly salesperson, then assigns a junior who is also juggling thirty other accounts, and you pay a markup for a layer that mostly forwards your messages. The cheapest Fiverr seller abroad cannot tell a Gulshan query from a Mohammadpur one, does not understand bKash-COD buyers, and disappears across a timezone the moment something breaks. All three share the same root problem: nobody senior actually owns your rankings.
Hiring one experienced freelancer in Dhaka fixes that, as long as you hire the real thing and not a reseller in disguise. Here is how to tell the difference on the first call. Ask who will personally do the work, then ask to see your own Search Console open on screen, not a slide. Ask them to name the Dhaka queries they would target and why, in plain language.
A real operator will pull up impressions, point at the wins already hiding in your data, and tell you honestly which keywords are worth the fight. That is how I work, and it is why my roster stays small. Payment is straightforward, 50% advance via bKash or Nagad to start and 50% on the agreed milestone, no setup-fee tricks and no lock-in beyond what we agreed. If the work is good you keep me, if it is not you walk.
That is how a freelancer earns a long relationship in this city.

Straight answers to what Dhaka business owners actually ask before hiring a freelance SEO expert.
My work starts at 50,000 BDT, and that is the honest floor for senior freelance SEO in Dhaka. A first-time on-page rebuild and Search Console cleanup for a small Gulshan or Dhanmondi business usually sits near this floor; ongoing or competitive work runs higher, with most clients between 50,000 and 1,50,000 BDT depending on pages, content volume and how hard the niche is. If you also need the website built, sites are tiered at 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT, with fully custom from 3,00,000 BDT. Anyone offering "full SEO" for 10,000 taka is reselling your project, not doing it.
Fair question, because that is the most common trick in Dhaka. The test is simple: on our first call I will share my screen, open your Search Console, and show you the work as I go, every month, in a Google Sheet you can check any day. You get my personal number, not an account manager's. I cap my roster at three to five active clients precisely because I do the work myself, so there is no incentive and no room to farm it out. If a freelancer cannot show you their hands on your account, assume there is a middleman.
An agency sells you a package and assigns a junior who is also handling thirty other accounts, and you pay a markup for the salesperson layer in between. With me, the senior is the one doing the work, reachable on WhatsApp, with no middleman. The trade-off is honest: I only take a few clients at a time, so if my roster is full you wait. Most Dhaka owners would rather wait for that than be account number forty-seven at an agency.
No, and you should walk away from anyone in Dhaka who promises it in 30, 60 or 90 days. Rankings depend on your domain age, current links, competitor strength and content depth, none of which any honest person controls on a fixed clock. What I do guarantee: you see the exact tasks done every month, your GSC impressions and clicks trending in the right direction within 60 to 90 days, and a written plan you can hold me to. If a meaningful set of target pages has not moved after the rebuild, I keep working them without re-invoicing.
I personally handle SEO strategy, keyword research, on-page, technical SEO and content briefs, with a few long-form pieces included at the base tier and more as a separate add-on. I also run Google Ads, and that experience directly sharpens which Dhaka keywords are worth ranking for, because I have seen which ones actually convert into bKash payments and calls. Link outreach is handled at strategy level; paid placements are quoted separately.
You do not need to be in Dhaka, though most of my clients are, and everything runs fine on WhatsApp, Google Meet and a shared sheet. If you are in the city, I am happy to meet once at the start to align on goals, Gulshan, Banani and Dhanmondi are easy for me. After that first meeting, remote is faster for both of us, and it means more of your budget goes into actual ranking work instead of traffic on Pragati Sarani.
