Gowealthy.com - A travel and investment information and Ecommerce portal

Introduction
There are many small countries in the Carribean region that are not covered under international tax laws and thereby provide an investment haven for people on the lookout for secure investments in high return projects. In addition, these countries are also popular destinations for travel and offer a variety of entertainment and leisure activities.

Triumph Asset Holdings Limited (TAH) is a middle east based advisory company promoting gowealthy.com, a highly successful information portal providing information ranging from finance to travel and tourism on these and other countries.

Problem
TAH required a web portal to provide people with information about investment, travel, and entertainment options in these countries and create a premium information club on its website. TAH also needed a secure software to communicate sensitive information between clients and TAH's team of consultants.

Solution
The Base77 team recommended a database driven website backed up by a content management software to maintain a large amount of information on the website. The team also developed a PGP based offline messenger solution (similar to yahoo); by implementing a 128-bit encryption based on RSA algorithm for securely transferring the data between the sender and the receiver, and for saving it on the server itself until the message is downloaded by the recipient party; so that TAH and its clients could safely communicate private information over the web. The software uses an efficient wipe mechanism for clearing deleted files from the memory as well as the disk which a normal delete function of an Operating System cannot do. A backend tool backs the client end messenger for gowealthy.com administrators enabling them to view and reply to messages.

The database driven site, with automatic link management, provides context related information in the form of rich and customized template-driven articles. An easy-to-use back office software was also provided to enable the Webmaster to manage the articles on the website. The software facilitates the user in creating new pages with the help of highly customizable templates. This software comprises of modules similar to a Yahoo type advisory messenger, banner management, user tracking, financial accounting for associates and customers for paid advisory, traffic routing, e-commerce and commission settlement etc. In addition, a site administration software was developed to facilitate the gowealthy.com administrators to dynamically change the look and feel of the website content. Furthermore, this also allows users to create new articles based on a vast template library, manage banner rotation on the site, create new information sections and, remove (authorized) articles.
