How web design is actually priced in Gulshan
Why one Gulshan brief gets quoted 35,000 BDT and another gets quoted 4,00,000 BDT
When a Gulshan business owner asks "web design er price koto?", they usually get three completely different answers in one afternoon. A Fiverr-style freelancer says 12,000 taka. A boutique agency on Gulshan Avenue says 3.5 lakh. Someone's cousin offers to do it free. None of those numbers are wrong on their own — they are answers to three different questions. The 12,000-taka quote is for a Bootstrap template with logo placement. The 3.5-lakh quote includes a brand workshop, three designers and a project manager you will never need. The free version is your cousin learning WordPress on your business.
On this page the number is honest because the scope is honest. The 50,000 BDT starter tier is a real five-section website — home, about, services, contact, one landing page — designed mobile-first, hand-coded or built properly on WordPress, with a bKash/Nagad-friendly contact flow and a Google Business Profile setup. The 90,000 BDT tier adds proper case-study pages, a blog, on-page SEO and 8-10 sections of bespoke design. The 1,50,000 BDT tier is the full small-business site — 12-18 pages, custom illustrations or photography direction, conversion-tuned forms, GA4 and Pixel set up so your Facebook ads in Gulshan-Banani actually report back.
Anything beyond that — multi-language sites for a Gulshan dental clinic catering to expats, a real estate listing platform, a Banani restaurant with online ordering tied to pathao or foodpanda, internal dashboards for a Gulshan-1 trading house — sits in custom territory and starts at 3,00,000 BDT. I quote those after a real call, not from a price list. If the brief is genuinely a 50,000-taka brief, I will say so and not try to push you up the ladder.
Payment is simple and the same for everyone in Gulshan or anywhere else in Dhaka: 50% advance to start, 50% on launch. No "maintenance contract" you did not ask for, no inflated hosting markup. Bank transfer, bKash and Nagad all work. You also get a design-approval guarantee — if the homepage mockup does not match the brief we agreed on, we revise until it does, before a single line of code gets written.
