Hire one senior web designer in Chittagong who shows you the design first, then builds it himself once you have signed off.
Most Chattogram businesses get one of two outcomes when they hire a designer: a Dhaka shop that treats a port-city client as an afterthought, or a cousin-of-a-friend on Facebook who sends a template and disappears. I am RH Fardin. You hire me directly, I design the actual layout, you approve it on your own phone, and only then do I build and launch it. No juniors, no resellers, no design-by-committee. Projects start at 50,000 BDT, 50% advance and 50% on launch.
Around 5 years designing and shipping sites end to end, including for Chattogram traders, importers, clinics and shops. One senior operator. You do not pay the second half until you approve the design.

Here is the conversation I hear constantly in Chattogram. A business owner near GEC or in Agrabad finally decides their old site, or their Facebook page standing in for a site, makes them look smaller than they are. They ask around. Someone says "amar ek bhai design kore, cheap", and three weeks later a flat template lands in their inbox that looks like every other template, with their logo dropped in the corner. The design was never the point for that person. It was a quick gig.
But the design is the entire point for you, because in a port city full of serious trading houses, importers and clinics, a cheap-looking site quietly tells every buyer you are the small option.
I work the other way around, and I lead with design on purpose. Before I write a single line of production code, you see the actual layout: the homepage, the way your services or products are laid out, the colours, the type, how it reads on a phone. You react, I adjust, and you sign off. That is the design-approval guarantee, and it is not a slogan. The second 50% is not due until the design you approved is the design going live. You are never staring at a finished site under your own brand thinking "this is not what I pictured", because you saw it and shaped it before it was built.
The reason I can do that is that the person designing is the same person coding and launching. There is no handoff where a junior in a back room reinterprets a senior's mockup and loses half the intent. Around 5 years of full-time work has gone into this, designing and building marketing sites, company profiles, lead-gen pages and small ecommerce stores for businesses across Chattogram and a handful of overseas clients. I take a small number of clients at a time, which is the honest trade-off of hiring one senior person instead of an agency: real attention on your design, not a slot in a queue.
And the pricing is public so the koto taka question gets a straight answer in the first call, not a vague "depends" that ends in a surprise invoice. Standard tiers are 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT, fully custom builds start at 3,00,000 BDT, and payment is 50% advance via bKash, Nagad or bank transfer, 50% on launch. You always know the number before you commit, and you always own your domain and hosting in your own name.
Six concrete reasons hiring one senior designer in Chittagong beats both a remote Dhaka shop and a cheap Facebook template artist, when the designer is genuinely senior and the design is genuinely yours to approve.
You see and approve the full layout before any code is written. The design-approval guarantee means the second 50% is not due until what you signed off on is what goes live.
In a port city of established trading houses and importers, a generic template makes you look like the small option. I design so your site reads as serious as your business actually is to a buyer sizing you up in five seconds.
The person who draws the design is the person who codes and launches it. No junior reinterprets the mockup and quietly loses half the intent between the design and the live site.
Most Chattogram visitors open your site on a mid-range Android on uneven 4G around the city, not a laptop. I design and test on that screen first, so the layout looks right where buyers actually are.
If you sell online, the checkout is designed around how people here actually pay, with bKash, Nagad and SSLCommerz wired in cleanly and the failure cases handled, not a half-finished payment button losing you orders.
You get the admin login, the design files, hosting and domain in your own name, and a short video on editing content. Move to another designer next year if you want; nothing is hidden or held hostage.
There is a habit in Chattogram of treating the website design as the corner to cut. The thinking goes: get someone cheap to make it look okay, the real work is the business. But your site is often the first serious impression a buyer forms, and in a market this commercial, first impressions are brutal and fast.
An importer deciding whether to take your company seriously, a patient choosing a clinic near Agrabad, a wholesale buyer comparing two suppliers, all of them make a snap judgement on whether your site looks like it belongs to a real, established operation or to someone who bought a 5,000 taka template. That judgement happens in seconds, on a phone, before they have read a word. A cheap-looking design is not a neutral choice; it actively shrinks how big and trustworthy you appear.
Hiring one senior designer directly fixes the part that matters most, because the design is not an afterthought bolted onto a coding gig, it is the thing I lead with and the thing you approve before anything is built. That said, be honest about scale. If you need a full brand identity, a sixty-page site, and a paid-ads campaign all running in parallel for months, an agency with parallel teams is the right call.
Below that line, which covers the large majority of Chattogram trading firms, importers, clinics, restaurants and service businesses, one accountable designer who shows you the design first is faster, cheaper, and far easier to hold to a deadline. The test in the first call is simple: ask to see the design before you pay the rest, and ask for two live sites the person personally designed. A clear answer means you are talking to the right one.

The questions Chattogram business owners ask me most before they hire a web designer.
Standard sites start at 50,000 BDT. The three regular tiers are 50,000, 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT, mostly depending on page count, how custom the design is, and any forms or integrations. Fully custom builds with bespoke functionality begin at 3,00,000 BDT. Payment is 50% advance via bKash, Nagad or bank transfer, and 50% on launch, with no surprise add-ons once we agree the scope and the price is fixed in writing.
Yes, and that is the core of how I work. You approve the full design before I write any production code, and the second 50% is only due once the design you signed off on is what goes live. That is the design-approval guarantee. You will never be handed a finished site under your own brand that looks nothing like what you pictured, because you shaped it before it was built.
I work in your timezone and treat Chattogram clients as primary, not as an afterthought to a Dhaka pipeline. Calls and the occasional in-person meeting near GEC or Agrabad are simple, and you have a named senior person you can hold accountable. Plenty of profiles advertising Chittagong design route everything through a remote team. With me, the person you brief is the person who designs and builds your site.
That is the most common reason people hire me here. A lot of solid Chattogram trading firms, importers and clinics have a site or a Facebook page that makes them look smaller and newer than they are. The design job is to close that gap: clean structure, credible typography, real photos where possible, and a layout that signals an established operation to a buyer sizing you up in the first five seconds.
A focused 5 to 7 page business site usually goes live in three to four weeks from kickoff. A 15 to 25 page site, or one with custom design and modules, takes five to seven weeks. The clock starts after the advance clears and your content and brand assets are with me, because the most common cause of slippage in Chattogram projects is content arriving late, not design or build speed.
Then we keep refining it inside the agreed scope until you do, and the launch payment simply is not due yet. The advance only covers the early design and setup work, and you approve the design before any production code is written. Disappearing or shipping something you hate would cost a named operator building a reputation in the Chattogram market far more than it is worth, so the incentive is to get the design right with you, not around you.
