A senior WordPress developer in Dhaka who actually writes the code, not a shop that resells a $59 ThemeForest template and calls it custom.
I am RH Fardin. I have spent the last five years building WordPress sites for businesses across Dhaka, Bangladesh and abroad. Every line of PHP, every block, every plugin choice is mine. No outsourced juniors, no surprise handoffs, no "my colleague will look at it tomorrow." You talk to the person doing the work, from the first call until the site is live.
Pricing from 50,000 BDT. 50% advance, 50% on launch. Design-approval guarantee — you sign off on the look before I write a line of WordPress code.
+Trusted by 50+ founders, agencies and teams across Bangladesh and beyond.
Trusted by teams I've built websites for
Here is what happens on most WordPress projects in Dhaka. A sales person promises you "custom design," then a junior installs Astra or Avada, swaps the demo content, and ships it in a week. Six months later your site is bloated with twenty plugins, the page speed score is in the thirties, you cannot edit anything without breaking a slider, and the original "developer" has moved on to the next client. You message them on WhatsApp — seen, no reply. This is the standard, and it is why people keep rebuilding the same site every two years.
I work differently because I am the developer, not a project coordinator. I write child themes from scratch when the project needs one. I pick plugins the way a surgeon picks instruments — only what is necessary, only what is well-maintained, never a half-abandoned freebie from 2017. I tune queries, cache headers, and image delivery so your site loads fast on a 3G connection in Mirpur, not just on the office fibre in Gulshan.
Five years of WordPress in Bangladesh has taught me what actually breaks: hosting that oversells shared resources, plugin updates that silently kill checkout, security holes from nulled themes, page builders that lock you in until you pay to escape. I have cleaned up enough of these messes for new clients that I now build to avoid them from day one. The site I hand you should still be fast, secure, and editable three years from now without calling me back.
If you are looking for the cheapest WordPress quote in Dhaka, I am not it. If you want someone senior who treats your site like a real piece of software and will tell you honestly when a plugin is a bad idea, we will get along.
Not features — outcomes. These are the things that separate an expert build from a template flip.
Child themes and custom blocks built in PHP, not a Elementor canvas held together with hope. Your design lives in code, not in a builder's database, so it stays fast and portable.
I install the smallest number of plugins that get the job done — usually six to ten on a business site, not the thirty-plus you see on cheap Dhaka builds. Fewer plugins means fewer attack surfaces and faster pages.
Target of sub-2-second load on a mid-range Android over Bangladeshi 4G. I tune cache, lazy-load, image formats and font loading until the LCP behaves — not just on the Gulshan office wifi.
Hardened wp-config, disabled XML-RPC where appropriate, two-factor on admin, only nulled-free plugins, real backups. I have watched enough Dhaka sites get defaced because someone used a pirated theme. We will not.
I build the admin so your marketing person in Dhaka can add a blog post, swap a banner, or update prices without breaking layouts or calling a developer.
If you ask for a feature that needs an expensive plugin, I will tell you. If a free alternative works, I will use it. If a feature is a bad idea for your traffic, I will say so before you spend on it.
The word "expert" gets used loosely in the Dhaka market. Almost every freelancer profile on Bdjobs and Fiverr lists WordPress as a top skill. Most of them mean "I can install a theme, pick colours, and add the contact form." That is not expertise — that is the entry-level use case WordPress was designed to serve out of the box.
Real WordPress expertise shows up only when something non-standard breaks: a custom post type needs a meta query that the page builder cannot generate, a plugin conflict crashes the editor, an update silently changes how the REST API behaves, the database needs a manual repair after a botched migration. If your "expert" cannot diagnose those without Googling for an hour, they are a user, not an expert.
What I bring is the layer underneath. I read the WordPress core well enough to know which hooks fire when, why a query is slow, and how to write a custom plugin in clean PHP rather than dragging a third-party tool into the mix. For a Dhaka business that means your site does not become a hostage to whoever built it. You can move hosts, edit content, scale traffic, or hand the codebase to a future developer — and it will still make sense. That portability is the real deliverable. Anyone can hand you a WordPress login. An expert hands you a WordPress install that will outlast the relationship.

Real questions from Dhaka business owners shopping for a senior WordPress developer.
My WordPress projects start at 50,000 BDT for a small business site with up to seven pages on a clean custom-tuned theme. A larger build with custom post types, a blog system, lead forms and on-page SEO is 90,000 BDT. A full corporate WordPress site with multilingual support, deeper custom development and migration is 1,50,000 BDT. Anything beyond that — fully custom theme, complex integrations, membership systems — starts from 3,00,000 BDT. Payment is 50% advance, 50% on launch.
A regular freelancer installs a pre-built theme, fills in your content, and moves on. I write code. That means custom blocks, custom queries, custom admin interfaces when needed, and a stack chosen for your specific needs — not a template demo. You also work with me directly the whole way, not a salesperson upfront and a junior at the keyboard.
Only if you specifically ask and only if it fits the project. I prefer the native WordPress block editor with custom blocks because it stays fast, stays editable, and does not lock you into a third-party tool that may slow your site to a crawl or charge a yearly licence fee forever. If you already have an Elementor site you want maintained, I will work with it — but for new builds I will usually steer you toward something lighter.
Yes — that is non-negotiable. I configure the editor so your team can add posts, change images, edit text, and update product listings without touching code. Before launch I record a short Bangla or English walkthrough specific to your site so the person managing content is not guessing.
I do not resell hosting — I do not want to be your hosting helpdesk on a Friday night. I will recommend a hosting setup that actually fits your traffic (often Hostinger, Cloudways, or a Bangladeshi provider like ExonHost for clients who want local billing), help you buy it, and configure WordPress on it properly. You own the account directly, which means you are not held hostage if we part ways.
Often yes. I audit the site first — themes, plugins, database, hosting, page speed — and tell you honestly whether a clean-up will get you 80% of the way there, or whether a rebuild is cheaper in the long run. For many Dhaka sites the answer is a focused clean-up: kill the dead plugins, switch the theme, fix the image pipeline, tune caching. Audits start at 50,000 BDT and the report is yours either way.
