More companies launch new website services

JAKARTA (JP): Internet companies PT Mega Portal Media and PT
Websolusi Com have launched website services to tap into the
growing number of Internet users in the country.

Mega Portal president Sony Sugama said here on Tuesday the
company's www.portalkilat.com offered a step-by-step program with
various e-commerce templates to enable users to create their own
websites with a capacity of 200 megabytes.

"Customers just have to choose the designs and instantly type
in their profiles according to their needs," Sony told reporters
at the launch of the website. "The membership fee is US$10 per
month," he added.

Sony said that the company would promote members' websites to
search engine portals, help them with website management and
arrange an online payment system.

He said that the company, which used CBN and Indosat servers,
spent at least Rp 400 million ($48,192) establishing the business
and expected to reach breakeven point within the next three
months.

PT Websolusi Com's director Saver S.Amin said the company's
birokerja.com, formally launched on Monday, offered job
recruitment services.

The company is the second local job recruitment website after
JobsDB.com, which was launched here in April.

Saver said job seekers could access job listings or look for
company profiles and job details, and then send their
applications via e-mail.

As for companies, they could advertise vacant positions and
select new employees in a more effective way, Saver said, adding
that all the services were free.

The company, which spent $200,000 establishing the business,
is a joint venture with foreign enterprises. (07)
