About the pricing
Why two WordPress quotes for the same brief in Gulshan can differ by 4x
Last month a brand manager near Gulshan Circle 1 forwarded me three WordPress quotes she had collected. The lowest was 25,000 BDT, the highest was 4,80,000 BDT. Same brief — eight pages, a small blog, contact form, integration with their existing Mailchimp list. The gap was not magic or padding. It was the difference between someone installing a free template on shared hosting in two days, a mid-market shop assembling the site on a page builder over three weeks, and a senior developer building a custom theme with proper schema, image pipeline and editor training. All three were technically WordPress. None of them were the same product.
I keep my prices in three published tiers because Gulshan buyers — agency MDs, restaurant owners, importers, clinic founders — deserve to know the floor and ceiling before they sit down for a meeting. Starter is 50,000 BDT and gets a polished five-to-seven-page WordPress site on a refined premium theme with your brand fonts, real photography placement and a working contact-to-email flow. Growth at 90,000 BDT adds a blog with proper category architecture, on-page SEO across every page, basic schema markup, Google Analytics 4 and Search Console hooked up, plus one round of revisions on every page.
Premium at 1,50,000 BDT is where most Gulshan corporate sites land — a custom-designed WordPress build (not a recycled theme), bilingual capability if you need Bangla and English side by side, multi-step lead forms with bKash or Nagad payment links if you take deposits, careers and team pages with editable structures, and a one-hour training session at your office or over Google Meet so your admin can update the site without calling me every week. Custom WordPress projects — membership portals, multi-vendor directories, headless setups, deep integrations with your accounting or POS — start at 3,00,000 BDT and are quoted after a discovery call because the scope genuinely varies.
What you will not see on this page is a fake 'starting from 15,000 BDT' banner. That number, when it appears in Gulshan WhatsApp groups, almost always means a free template with the demo content barely renamed, hosted on a server that goes down when Facebook ads spike traffic, and a developer who disappears after week three. The 50,000 BDT floor exists because that is the minimum honest cost of a site I am willing to put my name on — domain configuration, real hosting setup, brand-matched design, mobile QA on actual Android handsets, and a launch I personally manage.
