Do I need to provide the content and images?

Content, yes — you know your business and I do not. I will restructure and edit what you send so it reads for the web, and I will tell you where a section is missing. Photography is worth paying a local photographer for; stock images of people in offices are recognisable as stock and quietly cost you credibility.

Do you actually work with businesses in Guwahati?

Yes, remotely. I work with Indian clients from Islamabad, quoting in INR and invoicing in INR. I have no office, address or phone number in Guwahati and will not pretend otherwise. If your project needs someone physically present, hire locally — I will say so in the first reply rather than after a deposit.

How much does a website cost in Guwahati?

A business website starts from ₹6,600 and goes live in about three days. An e-commerce build starts from ₹12,000 in around seven days, and a custom application from ₹17,000 in ten. Those are starting figures — the exact number is fixed in writing once scope is agreed, and it does not move after that.

What currency will I be invoiced in?

INR. Quotes, milestones and the final invoice are all written in INR so you are never comparing a converted figure against a local supplier's. Regarding tax: GST at 18% on your sales; my invoices are imported services under reverse charge.

Will the site actually rank in Guwahati search results?

The build handles what is technically controllable: crawlable HTML, correct headings, structured data, fast pages, a clean sitemap and Search Console set up on day one. Ranking also depends on your competitors, your domain's age and the links pointing at you, which no developer controls. Anyone guaranteeing a position is guessing or lying.

What happens if I am not happy with the result?

Work is delivered in milestones against a written scope, and you review each one on a staging URL before it is paid for. If the delivered milestone does not match the scope, it gets corrected before anything moves forward. That structure exists so disagreement is resolved at the stage it happens rather than at the end when it is expensive.

Do you build on WordPress or something custom?

Whichever the project justifies. WordPress when you need to edit content constantly and want a familiar admin. A static build when speed and security matter more than a plugin ecosystem. Custom PHP and MySQL when the logic is genuinely yours. The choice is explained in the quote with its trade-offs, not presented as a foregone conclusion.

Custom PHP and MySQL application development in Guwahati

When an off-the-shelf plugin does not fit the business, I build the thing that does — booking systems, client portals, quote calculators, admin dashboards, and integrations with whatever API you already depend on. For Guwahati businesses, quoted in INR from $200, typically live in 10 days.

What custom php and mysql application development includes for a Guwahati business

Fixed scope, agreed in writing before development starts. From $200, typically live in 10 days.

Database design and schema, documented rather than improvised
Application build in PHP with a MySQL backend
Admin interface built for the people who will use it daily
Role-based access control where more than one person logs in
Third-party REST API integrations
Transactional email via PHPMailer with proper SPF/DKIM alignment
Input validation, prepared statements and CSRF protection throughout
Written handover documentation — you are not dependent on me to keep it running

The terms for a Indian client

Starting price	From $200, quoted and invoiced in INR
Typical timeline	10 days once content is supplied
Tax position	GST at 18% on your sales; my invoices are imported services under reverse charge
Data protection	the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 — resolved by the DPDP Act permits transfers except to notified countries, and the DPA records the basis
Payment rails available	Razorpay, PayU, Cashfree, and UPI — which now carries the majority of domestic transaction volume
My day in Guwahati time	09:30–18:30 — about 8.5 hours of overlap

Why this matters for India specifically

UPI changes the entire checkout design. An Indian store built around card fields first and UPI as an afterthought converts far worse than one built the other way round, and that is a layout decision, not a plugin.

How a Guwahati build is scoped before anything is written

Scope is fixed in writing before development starts, and the number in that document is the number on the invoice. For Guwahati projects that document lists every page, every form, every integration and every third-party account the site will touch — priced in INR, not converted at the end from something else.

The reason this matters more than it sounds: almost every dispute in web development is a scope dispute wearing a different hat. "Can you just add" is how a three-day build becomes a three-week one. Fixing scope up front does not stop you changing your mind; it makes the cost of changing your mind visible before you commit to it, which is the only honest way to run a fixed price.

Trades and field services in Guwahati

Builders, electricians, plumbers, roofers and installers share one problem: the customer is deciding on their phone, often standing in the room with the problem, and they will call the first firm that looks like it will pick up. Three things decide it — the phone number tappable in the header, a coverage list naming their town, and photographs of your own finished work rather than stock.

The thing trades sites most often get wrong is the quote form. Asking for a full address, a project budget and a preferred start date before anything else is a form built for your admin convenience, not for the customer. Two fields and a photo upload will produce more enquiries than eight fields ever will, and the rest can be collected on the call you just earned.

Structured data that is missing, wrong, or quietly lying

Schema markup is how a search engine reads what a page means rather than only what it says. Missing it costs you rich results. Getting it wrong is worse: marking up review stars you do not have, or a LocalBusiness at an address that is not yours, risks a manual action rather than a ranking.

Every page I build carries schema matching what is actually on it and nothing beyond that. The restraint is deliberate — this page uses Service and areaServed rather than LocalBusiness, precisely because there is no physical presence in Guwahati to assert.

What I am not claiming about Guwahati

I have no office, postal address or phone number in Guwahati
I cannot meet you in person, and if that is a requirement you should hire locally
I am not claiming existing clients in Guwahati specifically — my live work is listed on the work page and you can check it
Nothing on this page is a guarantee of search rankings, which no developer can honestly offer
