Website Maintenance Service Price in Chittagong

The website maintenance service price in Chittagong shouldn't be a mystery you only discover when your site is already down.

I am RH Fardin — a senior solo developer who maintains websites for Chattogram businesses without the agency runaround. Importers and C&F firms around Agrabad, trading houses off GEC, port-linked manufacturers, and local shops doing bKash and Nagad orders: I tell you up front what a maintenance plan covers, what triggers an extra charge, and what isn't included — so you can budget the number, not guess at it. New builds start from 50,000 BDT, 50% advance and 50% on launch, and maintenance is priced just as plainly.

How website maintenance is actually priced in Chittagong

Why the website maintenance service price in Chittagong feels like a guessing game

The first thing a Chattogram business owner asks me about maintenance is the same thing they ask about a new site: "koto taka?" The honest answer is that it depends on what's running on the site right now, what tends to break, and how often someone actually needs to open it up. A five-page company profile for a trading firm off GEC costs almost nothing to keep alive. A WooCommerce store wired to bKash, Nagad, Pathao and Steadfast with a few hundred SKUs is a different animal entirely — and pretending the two cost the same is how a shop ends up on a 1,500-taka "maintenance" plan that quietly does nothing by month three.

Most maintenance quotes in Chittagong are vague on purpose. The local shop or the Dhaka agency wants the retainer locked, then bills you again every time you ask for a price change, a banner swap, or a plugin that broke after an update. I price it the other way: a small fixed fee for the boring guaranteed work — backups, core and plugin updates, uptime monitoring, security patches, SSL renewal, a short monthly note on what happened — and a published rate for anything beyond that. You only pay for the change requests you actually make, and you see the number before you commit.

There's a Chattogram-specific reason this matters more here than people admit. So much of the city's real money moves on a trade calendar — pre-Eid stock runs, the import-export peaks, the festival sales when a clothing or grocery store off Agrabad or near GEC Circle does in a week what it normally does in a month. That is exactly when a site cannot afford to go down: a checkout that fails on a Friday-night sale, an SSL certificate that lapses mid-campaign, a payment gateway that breaks after bKash pushes an API change. A real maintenance plan is insurance against losing money on the one week you can least afford it.

My maintenance work is held to the same standard as my builds — which start at 50,000 BDT and step up through 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT, with fully custom work from 3,00,000 BDT, always 50% advance and 50% on launch. If I built your site, I already know where every pipe runs, so the upkeep is cheaper. If someone else built it, I do a paid audit first — a flat fee — so neither of us is maintaining a black box. And you are dealing with one senior operator on WhatsApp, not a ticket queue or a junior who has to escalate while your sale bleeds out.

What's included

What the maintenance fee actually buys you in Chittagong

Every plan covers the same baseline below. What changes between tiers is response time, how many change-request hours are included, and how hard I push on security and speed for a port-city store under load.

01

Number stated first

You get the monthly or yearly figure in BDT before you sign anything. No discovery call that ends in a vague "we'll send a proposal" and a price that moves later.

02

Off-site backups

Daily database and weekly full-site backups stored away from your hosting account. If a cheap local server gets wiped — and they do — your Chittagong business doesn't get wiped with it.

03

bKash & Nagad watch

Payment and courier integrations break more than anything else on a BD store. Gateway and Pathao/Steadfast fixes are handled inside the retainer, before a failed checkout costs you a festival-week order.

04

Peak-season uptime

24/7 uptime and SSL-expiry monitoring tuned for your trade calendar. Before an Eid or pre-stock-run push, I check the site can take the load — I know before your customers do, not after.

05

One senior, direct

When checkout fails at 9pm during a sale, you reach me on WhatsApp — the person who knows your site — not a junior in a queue. That single line of accountability is the whole point of paying for upkeep.

06

Edits included, rest published

A monthly budget of change hours covers price updates, banner swaps, new products and copy tweaks. Anything bigger is quoted at a published rate, so there's never an argument over the invoice later.

In focus

What actually moves the Chittagong maintenance price up or down

Maintenance cost in Chattogram is driven by four real things, not by how big the agency's office on CDA Avenue looks. First, the stack — a static or plain WordPress company site is cheap to keep stable, while a WooCommerce store tied to bKash, Nagad, SSLCommerz, Pathao and Steadfast is more, because each integration is one more thing that can break when a vendor quietly changes an API.

Second, what's at stake — a store doing real order volume in a festival week needs faster response and tighter monitoring than a brochure site, and that costs more to stand behind. Third, change volume — if you ship new offers weekly and run Facebook ads into landing pages, you're spending real hours every month and the plan should say so honestly.

Fourth, the state of the code you're handing me — a site built on a nulled theme and stuffed with thirty plugins always costs more to keep alive, which is exactly why I audit someone else's build before quoting a number.

For most Chittagong businesses I work with, the retainer settles into a predictable range: a small fixed monthly fee for a company site I built, a meaningfully higher one for a busy WooCommerce store, and a yearly care plan — paid 50% advance, 50% at the six-month mark, in line with how BD businesses prefer to budget — that comes out cheaper per month for owners who just want to set it and forget it.

Anything outside the included hours — a redesign, a new section, a Merchant Center fix, a pixel rebuild — is quoted separately at a rate I state up front. That's the entire model. No "premium tier" gimmick, no per-page surprise invoices, no renewal hike sprung on you at month twelve. The website maintenance service price in Chittagong should be a number you can plan around, and with one senior operator carrying the whole thing, it is.

Frequently asked

Straight answers before we build.

Straight answers to what Chattogram owners actually ask me on the first WhatsApp message about maintenance pricing.

Website maintenance service price Chittagong-e koto taka?

It depends on what kind of site. A simple WordPress company site I built starts at a low fixed monthly fee. A WooCommerce store with bKash, Nagad and courier APIs costs more because far more can break under festival-week load. I send you a written quote with the exact BDT figure after a 10-minute call about the site — no sales tricks, no number that moves after you commit. New builds, for reference, start at 50,000 BDT.

Can I pay yearly instead of monthly?

Yes, and most Chittagong clients do. The yearly care plan works out cheaper per month and matches how port-city businesses prefer to budget around the trade calendar. Yearly is paid 50% in advance and 50% at the six-month mark. Monthly is paid at the start of each month — bKash, Nagad or bank transfer, whatever's easiest for you.

Can you maintain a site you didn't build?

Yes, but I do a paid audit first. Inheriting a WordPress site without knowing what theme, plugins and custom code are inside is how maintenance contracts go sideways. The audit is a flat fee, and if you sign a 6-month or 12-month plan after, that fee is credited back. For sites I built myself, there's no audit — I already know where everything is.

What is NOT included in the maintenance fee?

Anything that's a new build rather than upkeep. Full redesigns, new page templates, a new payment gateway integration, migrating to a different platform, or a big SEO overhaul are quoted separately at a published rate. The small stuff — price changes, banner swaps, adding products, updating contact details — is inside the plan.

My store goes mad during Eid and pre-stock sales. Does the plan cover that?

That's exactly when the plan earns its keep. Before a known peak — Eid, a pre-stock run, a festival campaign you've told me about — I check the site can take the load, confirm SSL won't lapse mid-sale, and make sure bKash, Nagad and the couriers are firing. If checkout breaks at night, uptime monitoring pings me and WhatsApp is the fastest line to reach me directly. Committed response times are written into ecommerce yearly plans.

Do you offer hosting along with maintenance in Chittagong?

I don't resell hosting — the margins push agencies to dump clients on bad cheap servers. I'll recommend a setup that fits your traffic, help you buy it in your own name, and manage it inside the retainer. You own the account, not me. If you ever stop working with me, the site and the hosting leave with you — no hostage situation, which is more than a lot of local shops can say.
