Making money online

Ace resources are the local business promoters in Bangladesh for Novatech, India. Novatech in turn, is a branch of the acclaimed US company, Four Pillars Inc. Four Pillars is connected to 250 companies all over the world, who use their services and skills in virtual marketing, to introduce their products and items to internet users around the globe.

Some companies in the US came up with 'the virtual marketing' idea during the early 90's, with the campaign 'Earn while you surf'. Now these companies are turning towards other countries, with growing IT trends. Besides the US, India, Malayasia and Mauritius are 'cashing-on' these ideas. This idea has reached Bangladesh in the form of www.takakamao.com, and it is the first ever home-based 'earn while you surf' web site. This is based on, "You click on a banner in our web site and you get paid after you have signed up with us. Its just that simple!" according to Kamrul Islam, project director of Ace Resources.

Annually an individual would have to pay Tk. 6,000 during sign up; renewal would cost Tk. 2500. The first few banners that the user clicks, would be US 40 cents or 50 cents and Ace Resources is authorised to pay this amount.

"The rest of the money that the individual would be earning through banners, survey forms, paid search engines, paid mails, money games etc., would be coming directly from Four Pillars Inc. This money would be transferred directly to the individual's International Credit card account or the amount would be mailed to him in the form of an international check." said Islam.

An individual can also find out about his earnings till date through his account in the takakamao.com website. Already www.takakamao.com has around 250 members and they are happy with the way people are showing interest at this new virtual marketing sector.

Some others ways, through which people can earn money while sitting at home are through expansion of business plans, joining e-commerce plans, and transcription work on the internet.

"This is not a commercial job and we have to remind most of our members that they would actually have to work diligently to earn all this money, when they sign up." said Islam. "It is another way to supplement your average daily income and this would actually be a lot more profitable, if more people would sign up with us and help us out with our venture." he concluded.
