How to read a website development quote in Chittagong
The real question isn't "koto taka" — it's what's inside the number, and what the cheap one quietly leaves out.
Almost every Chattogram owner who asks me about website development cost is really asking a different question without knowing it. They have collected three quotes — eight thousand taka from a cousin's friend, thirty-five from a small shop near Reazuddin Bazar, two lakh from someone who answered a Facebook ad — and the spread makes no sense to them, because all three say the words "website development" and none of them say what is actually inside the number. So the cheapest one wins by default.
That is the single most expensive decision a port-city business makes, and it happens because nobody itemised the quote. The eight-thousand number is not a website; it is a nulled template with the developer's logins, no working forms, and a quiet plan to send you a hosting renewal bill you did not agree to. My job on this page is to open the number up so you can read it.
Here is what the website development cost in Chittagong actually breaks into, because the price is not one thing — it is six. How many pages and how much real content. Whether it is a brochure site or has genuine functionality like an enquiry pipeline, a product catalogue, or bKash and Nagad order handling. Whether the design is a recycled theme or built for your business. Whether the code is clean and handed to you, or locked so you must keep paying the same person.
Whether speed on a mid-range Android over Chittagong 4G was engineered in or ignored. And whether anyone is reachable after launch. The cheap quote scores zero on most of these and still calls itself "website development." Mine is priced against all six, in writing, before you pay.
When you hire me, the quote and the build are the same person — there is no salesman setting a price a junior then cuts corners to hit. I am the discovery call, the sitemap, the design in Figma you sign off, the front-end code, the forms wired to your inbox, the bKash and Nagad enquiry setup, and the WhatsApp thread that stays open after launch. One senior operator, around five years building sites for Bangladeshi businesses, one accountable thread.
That is also why my number is stable: there is no agency layer quietly trimming your build to protect a margin, so the figure I quote on day one is the figure you pay — it does not balloon halfway through with charges nobody mentioned.
The tiers are fixed and they read the same whether your letterhead says Chattogram or Chittagong. 50,000 BDT is the floor — a focused, properly built site: a clean set of core pages, working enquiry forms that reach your inbox, and a contact flow that actually works on a phone. 90,000 BDT is a larger multi-page build with more functionality, a product or service catalogue, and bKash or Nagad enquiry handling. 1,50,000 BDT covers a bigger bilingual site with deeper features and more involved development.
Fully custom builds, engineered from scratch, start from 3,00,000 BDT. Always 50% advance and 50% on launch — bKash, Nagad or bank transfer — and you approve the full design before I write a single line of code.
