Website development in Chittagong, done by the person who actually writes the code.
I am RH Fardin. I handle website development in Chittagong from start to finish: structure, design, the build and deployment. I work for importers and C&F firms near Agrabad, trading houses off GEC, clinics, shops and manufacturers that feed off the port. I build every line myself. Nothing is handed to a junior or dropped into a page-builder you will fight with later. It starts at 50,000 BDT, with 50% in advance and 50% on launch. You approve the full design before any code is written.
About 5 years building sites across Bangladesh. One senior person, no agency layer. Direct on WhatsApp, and you pay by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer.

When a Chattogram business asks around for website development in Chittagong, it gets two very different things with the same name. One is a real build. It has a clean base, code that does what it should, and pages that load fast on the 4G a buyer uses on the road to the port.
The other is a recoloured template stuffed with a dozen plugins. It gets sold as "development" because someone logged into a dashboard and dragged some boxes around. Both quote you a price. Only one is still standing, fast and editable a year later. Website development should mean the first thing, and you should be able to tell which one you are buying before you pay.
There is a Chattogram reason why build quality matters more here than most sales copy admits. So much of the real money in this city is trade. Think import and export, shipping and forwarding, C&F, indenting, commodity supply and light manufacturing off the port. The person opening your site is often a sourcing office abroad. It may be a principal in Singapore, or a buyer in the Gulf who got your company name and wants to confirm you are real before replying.
They are not on office fibre. They are on a phone, on a connection that is fine for WhatsApp and brutal on a bloated WordPress homepage. If your site takes eight seconds to load, a foreign buyer reads you as a small, slow operation before a single word appears. Development, the part nobody sees, is exactly what fixes that.
So when I take on a project, I am the whole chain. I run the discovery call, plan the site structure and make the design you sign off. I write the front-end code, set up the integrations and handle deployment. I also answer the WhatsApp message you send when something needs changing before a meeting.
I build on a clean WordPress or Next.js base, based on what your business really needs, not whatever I used last week. I keep the plugin count low on purpose. Every extra plugin is a future auto-update waiting to break your layout three months after handover. You get one senior person, one thread, and about five years of shipping sites for Bangladeshi firms. That single point of contact is the real difference, not a slogan.
Pricing is fixed, and it is the same on "Chittagong" or "Chattogram" letterhead. A focused 5-7 page business build is 50,000 BDT. A larger site with a blog, custom sections and stronger on-page SEO is 90,000 BDT. A full bilingual build with deeper navigation and buyer-facing pages, or a basic shop, is 1,50,000 BDT.
Truly custom development starts from 3,00,000 BDT. That covers real ecommerce, buyer portals, dashboards, order tracking and API integrations. You always pay 50% in advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. You never pay the second half for a build you have not seen live.
Here are six things that separate a real build from a dressed-up template. All six come standard from the 50,000 BDT tier. None of them are upsells buried in a bigger quote.
I choose clean WordPress or Next.js to fit your business, and I keep the plugin count low on purpose. Nothing is there just because a page-builder demo needed it. So a single update will not quietly break your homepage after I hand over.
I build and test for a mid-range Android on a real Chittagong connection, not your office fibre. Pages load in under three seconds on the road between Agrabad and the port. That is where the enquiry, and the foreign buyer's first impression, really happens.
Your buyers in Chattogram open the site on a phone first. So I design and code the small screen first and the desktop second. The layout that 80 percent of your traffic sees is the one I worked hardest on, not an afterthought.
It might be a "Pay via bKash" line on a quote form or a proper manual-payment block for a shop. Either way, I set it up with number masking and a copy button. Customers then use it, instead of giving up and calling you.
You get a clean admin, a short handover doc and login details in your name. You can change a price, swap a photo or post a notice without calling me or paying anyone. A build you cannot touch is not really yours.
Title tags, meta, schema, clean URLs and a sitemap sent to Search Console are all built in. A real SEO consultant does this, not a plugin checklist. So when someone searches your trade plus Chittagong, the site is set up to show up.
I see one pattern again and again in Chattogram. An owner gets a website development quote from a Facebook group or a cousin's friend for eight or twelve thousand taka. The number is too good to refuse. What they get is a nulled premium theme on cheap reseller hosting, with twenty plugins holding it together. For a few weeks it looks fine.
Then a plugin auto-updates and the layout collapses. Or the shared hosting goes down in the Eid rush, just when traffic peaks. Or the "developer" goes quiet and nobody has the admin password. By then the site is doing real damage. A foreign buyer who Googled the company saw a broken page. The contact form has been silently dropping enquiries for a month. There is no source code to give anyone else. The eight-thousand-taka site was not cheap. It was expensive, paid for in lost deals and a rebuild.
That rebuild is a big part of the website development I do in Chittagong. I move a business off a fragile template and onto something built properly. This is where the gap between a Dhaka agency quote and a market-stall quote really matters. It is also why 50,000 BDT sits where it should. A Gulshan agency will quote one and a half to two lakh for a basic site and put a junior on it. The Facebook-group developer will quote eight thousand for a gamble that breaks.
My floor of 50,000 BDT buys senior-level development built for how Chattogram buyers find and judge you. There is no capital-city markup and no cheap-template trap. If your budget is honestly under that, I will tell you on the first call. I will point you to a real template option that is upfront about being a template. I would rather do that than ship something I will be fixing for someone else by next Eid.

Here are straight answers to what Chattogram business owners ask me in their first WhatsApp message.
Website development in Chittagong starts at 50,000 BDT for a focused 5-7 page business site, hand-built and fast. 90,000 BDT covers a larger site with a blog, custom sections and stronger SEO. 1,50,000 BDT is a full bilingual build with deeper navigation and buyer-facing pages, or a basic shop. Truly custom work like real ecommerce, buyer portals, dashboards and integrations starts from 3,00,000 BDT. You always pay 50% in advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer.
Design is how the site looks and reads. It is the layout, the colours and the structure a buyer judges in five seconds. Development is what makes it work: the code, the speed, the forms that reach your inbox, the payment block, the SEO base and deployment. Many cheap quotes in Chittagong drop a design onto a template and call it development. I do both on a clean code base. So the site looks right, loads fast on real 4G and is still editable a year later.
I use whichever truly fits your business, not whatever is fastest for me. For most Chattogram firms, a clean WordPress build with a small set of plugins is the right call. You can edit it yourself, and it makes sense at the 50,000 to 1,50,000 BDT tiers. Some sites need real speed, custom logic or integrations, like portals, dashboards or order tracking. For those I build on Next.js, which is the custom lane from 3,00,000 BDT. I will tell you on the first call which one you need and why.
The 50,000 BDT build takes 10 to 14 working days from the day I have your content, logo and brand colours. The 90,000 BDT tier takes about three weeks. The biggest delay on every project I have done in Bangladesh is waiting for the client's text and photos. If your content is ready when we start, I ship fast. Tell me upfront if you have a real deadline, like a tender or a trade fair. I will be honest about whether it fits before you pay the advance.
We work remotely, and it works well. Whether you are in Agrabad, GEC, Khulshi, Nasirabad or anywhere else, we start with a kickoff call on Google Meet or WhatsApp. After that, almost everything runs on WhatsApp and screen-share calls, including design reviews and final sign-off. That is how I keep development at 50,000 BDT instead of building travel and weekly meetings into the price. Owners outside the city and overseas, including diaspora-run firms in Chattogram, work the same way.
No, and that is on purpose. Domain and hosting go in your name. You get the admin login and a short handover doc, and for a custom build you get the source code. You can change prices, swap photos and post notices yourself without calling anyone. If you want me on call for bigger changes, that is available. But it is your choice, not a lock-in. A build you cannot walk away from was never really yours, and that part is non-negotiable for me.
