VoidWorks is a Digital Agency that provides services including web design, site development, hosting, search engine optimization, software development and Linux based server solutions.
Many companies, especially those that are in the initial stages of expansion, lack a strong technical support department. Though a general statement, this applies to most industries, even those that commonly employ programmers or developers as many programmers possess specialized skill sets. This is an understandable consequence of the nature of IT – new programming techniques and algorithms are introduced frequently, and it requires constant training to keep up-to-date on the latest technology. VoidWorks offers a solution to this problem, providing all the services that are typically handled by a comprehensive IT department to our friendly and communicative team.
We provide a complete solution to our clients by developing them a website and then provide them with a web & email hosting server along with complete Search Engine Optimization, because we believe complete solution is something that’s been missing out in today’s world of technology.
VoidWorks provides a variety of package options for clients, all of which are displayed on our website. We operate on both client and server-side with the latest web technologies such as HTML5/CSS3, PHP/MySQL, JavaScript, jQuery, WordPress, Drupal, Magento etc. as well as provide e-commerce solutions for businesses. Website development packages range from $1,000 to $18,000. Most business owners find these prices are affordable regardless of the size of business they own, and significantly more affordable than typical web dev prices.
One-time setup costs for a personal shared/dedicated VPS server costs anywhere from $1,000-$5,000 depending on how extensive the client’s needs are. Other Linux-based server-related services start at $500 for a one-time setup. Server maintenance costs are anywhere from $10-$300 per month, depending on client need.
Our Web hosting costs are determined based on data overhead and type of hosting, which is typically 5-30$ a month or around 60-300$ a year and that is very feasible for anyone to afford.
The web design industry has been steadily growing for decades, a trend that is expected to continue, with an average of 3.6% growth expected annually through 2020[1] as consumer internet usage increases. Custom platform web design is losing business to design platforms that require less coding experience such as Wordpress, which is VoidWorks’ specialty. This allows for the creation of custom websites that can be later modified by the client with much less work on our end.
In a similar fashion, the web hosting industry is expected to grow at a rate of 5.5% annually, on average, until 2020[2]. VoidWorks’ position as a website design and hosting company allows it to take advantage of both of these growing industries, offering complementary services to the same client in order to optimize revenue.

Ifran, the CEO of VoidWorks, is currently attending UNI as a first-year student majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Business, and working on his Entrepreneurship Certification. Originally from Dhaka, Bangladesh, Ifran is a largely self-taught programmer and web developer. Beginning his education in 2010, whilst still enrolled in high school, Ifran began doing freelance programming work in 2011. Utilizing professional resources available from w3schools, NewHorizons and CSL-IT, Ifran has obtained proficiency certifications in numerous programming languages and platforms including: HTML5/CSS3, PHP/MySQL, WordPress, RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) and Asterisk (IP PBX Telephony). A professional web developer and server administrator since 2013, Ifran compiled a team of three developers in Bangladesh who share his passion for programming and business, eventually founding VoidWorks in 2014. Over the course of the next year and a half, VoidWorks has designed over 90 websites and handled business with over 100 clients.
If we win Dream Big Grow Here, VoidWorks will purchase two virtual servers from Ramnode ($960 each) in two different regions of the United States (NYC and Atlanta, GA) and two virtual servers from different regions in Europe (time4vps $438.32 each). By diversifying our server locations, VoidWorks can increase the hosting security and safeguard against any potential downtime. Each server has a WHM licensing fee associated with it, which cost $130 annually. We then intend to launch a marketing campaign for the next year with a budget of $500 for Google AdWords and $500 for SEO/SMM services. We predict that this campaign will bring in many more client prospects, bolstering sales and allowing us to expand into new markets.
