Hire a WordPress developer in Chittagong who hands you a site you can log into, edit and own. Not a locked black box you have to pay him to touch.
Most Chattogram owners who hire a WordPress developer get one of two messes. One is a Facebook freelancer who used a nulled theme and pirated plugins with no updates. The other is an Agrabad shop that keeps the admin password "for security" so you can never leave. I build every WordPress site myself, give you full admin access and write down what each plugin does. Clean, licensed, mobile first builds start at 50,000 BDT. They load on 4G in GEC traffic and stay easy to update a year on.

Here is the call I get most often from owners who want to hire a WordPress developer in Chittagong. They hired one a year ago. It was a friend's cousin, a Facebook page or a small Agrabad outfit. The site looked fine at launch. Then the developer stopped replying. The contact form quietly broke, and a plugin threw a white screen.
When they finally found someone to look at it, the truth came out. The whole site was built on a nulled premium theme and pirated plugins with no way to update. Worse, the first developer never handed over the admin login. Now the owner can't even change a phone number without paying someone to break back in. They did hire a WordPress developer. They just didn't hire one who left them owning their own website.
I am RH Fardin, a solo senior WordPress developer who builds for Bangladeshi businesses. For about five years I have built WordPress sites for the firms Chattogram runs on. That includes importers and clearing-and-forwarding firms around the port, and traders and showrooms along GEC and CDA Avenue. It also includes clinics in Khulshi and Nasirabad, and shops whose customers pay by bKash and Nagad.
I handle the discovery call, the WordPress build and the theme and plugin choices myself. I also do the on-page SEO, the speed pass and the launch. No junior gets assigned to your account. No white-label partner does the work behind a logo. Nothing nulled or pirated sits anywhere in the stack.
When you hire me, the price floor is 50,000 BDT. That is the honest starting point for a real WordPress site. You get a proper talk about what your Chattogram buyer needs, and a mobile first build on a clean licensed theme. You get only the plugins the site needs, and bKash and Nagad payments done properly. On-page SEO is set up before launch. Full admin access comes with a short written guide to what each plugin does.
The 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT tiers add WooCommerce, booking, or Bangla and English. The person doing the work stays the same. It's still me. Fully custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT. I charge 50 percent advance and 50 percent on launch. I won't start without the advance. I won't chase you for the second half either. It's due when you sign off on the live site.
The design-approval guarantee means I keep working on the look, within scope, until you say it's right. And unlike the developer who vanishes with your password, I hand over the keys. You get your own admin account, hosting and domain in your name, and a site you can run without me. That last part is the difference between hiring a developer and renting your own website back from one.
Six things separate hiring one accountable senior developer from gambling on the cheapest Facebook quote in Chattogram. Each one ties to how a WordPress site gets owned, run and broken in this city.
A full WordPress admin account, plus hosting and domain registered in your name. Nothing held hostage "for security." You can edit, add pages or hand it to someone else any time, with no permission from me.
Every theme and plugin is properly licensed or truly free. No pirated premium plugins that stop updating. No marketplace theme renamed and resold. So your Chattogram site keeps getting security fixes after launch.
The person on your discovery call is the person writing the build. No "a resource will be assigned." No handover to a trainee, and no drop in quality the moment your advance clears on bKash.
A lean WordPress setup tuned to load fast on a mid-range Android with one bar in GEC, Agrabad or port-area traffic. Plugins are kept few, and pages are cached and compressed. A buyer waiting nine seconds is already in a rival's tab.
Payment set up the way Chattogram customers pay. That's clean WooCommerce or a proper manual flow. No copy-pasted personal number, and no confused buyer giving up at the last step.
At launch you get a short written guide. It shows what each plugin does, how to edit your content and how to make a safe backup. You hired a developer to build it once, not to charge you every time you change a price.
In Chattogram, the word "hire" covers two very different deals. Most owners don't learn the difference until something breaks. At one end, a Facebook freelancer takes 8,000 to 25,000 taka. He installs a nulled premium theme and a stack of pirated plugins. He builds your site over a weekend and moves on to the next ten clients. It looks fine in screenshots. But nulled software can't get official updates, so the security holes never close.
In time the plugins clash and crash. When you call, the number is dead. At the other end, an Agrabad agency quotes in the lakhs and keeps you dependent on purpose. They hold the admin login, the hosting account and the domain. Every small edit becomes a paid ticket, and leaving means rebuilding from scratch. Both are sold as "hiring a WordPress developer." Neither leaves you with a website you control.
When you hire me, the 50,000 BDT floor buys the opposite of both traps. You get a WordPress site of about five core pages on a clean licensed theme. It uses only the plugins the project needs, with no bloat to slow it down. The layout is mobile first and tested on the phones Chattogram buyers use. A working contact form goes to your email and WhatsApp. On-page SEO is done properly: titles, meta, schema, internal links and image alt text.
Google Business Profile and Search Console get connected. You also get a bKash and Nagad payment section and the design-approval guarantee. Then comes the part both traps skip: full admin access in your name, hosting and domain you own, and a written handover. Need WooCommerce checkout, online booking, a real blog, or Bangla and English versions? That's the 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT tier, and I'll tell you on the call which fits. You end up owning a site built once, by one senior person still reachable in month two.

Real questions from Chattogram buyers who want to hire a WordPress developer. We start with the one everyone asks in the first thirty seconds.
The honest floor is 50,000 BDT. That covers a WordPress site of about five pages on a clean licensed theme, with only the plugins it needs. It includes basic on-page SEO, Google Business Profile setup, bKash and Nagad payments, full admin handover and the design-approval guarantee. 90,000 BDT adds WooCommerce, booking, a blog and more pages. 1,50,000 BDT adds a full store, Bangla and English, and advanced features. Custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT. A quote of 8,000 to 25,000 taka usually means a nulled theme or a vanishing act.
You get full admin access in your own name at launch. Hosting and the domain are registered to you, not to me. I've heard too many stories from owners around Agrabad and GEC whose developer kept the password "for security." Every edit became a paid favour. That's lock-in, not a service. After handover, you can log in, change a phone number, add a page, take a backup or bring in another developer. You need no permission from me. Hiring me means you own the site, not rent it back.
10,000 taka can't pay for a licensed theme, real build hours, phone testing, proper SEO or after-launch support. In Chattogram, that quote almost always means a nulled theme and pirated plugins with no security updates. It's built by someone juggling ten projects who goes quiet when it breaks. At 50,000 BDT I build it clean, license everything, test it on port-city 4G and hand you the keys. I'm still reachable in month two. Many owners who took the cheap deal later pay me to rebuild.
No, never. Everything I install is properly licensed or truly free from the official WordPress library. Nulled themes and pirated plugins are the biggest reason cheap Chittagong WordPress sites break. They can't get official updates, so security holes stay open. They often hide harmful code too. I'd rather scope the project to the right tier than poison your site with pirated software to hit a lower number. A clean licensed build is why your site still works a year after launch.
Yes, that's the point of the handover. At launch I give you a short written guide. It shows how to edit pages, change text and images, add a basic post and make a safe backup, all from your own admin login. WordPress is built for this. I set yours up so everyday edits don't need a developer. For bigger changes, like a new feature, a redesign or a tricky plugin, you can call me. But you'll never pay just to update a price or phone number on your own site.
Yes. On the 50,000 BDT tier I set up a clean payment section with your bKash and Nagad details and clear steps. A form or WhatsApp confirmation lets customers pay while you confirm. That suits many B2B and trading firms around the port. Fully automated WooCommerce checkout with bKash, Nagad or SSLCommerz and order management sits on the 1,50,000 BDT tier. At that point you're running a real online store, not a payment info page, and the price reflects the real work.
