2017

Back in 2017, I had a friend named Muntasir Ifraim. Almost every day, we talked about Bitcoin, startups, and ways to make money. To be honest, we probably spent more time discussing business ideas than our studies.

2018, 2019, 2020

In early 2018, family issues pulled me away from everything for a while, and that phase continued into 2019. But one thing never changed – Muntasir Ifraim and I kept discussing all those stuffs.

In the last quarter of 2019, I visited India. After spending around 10 days there, I started missing Bangladesh and my friends. I spent hours talking with them over the phone. During one of those conversations, my college friend Oni Mozumder told me he had found a way to earn money online. This way instantly caught my attention, and honestly, I couldn’t wait to return to Bangladesh.

As soon as I got back, I met Oni Mozumder and learned everything from him. Through him, I earned my very first income.

Later, I started working with a platform called Myleads and went on to earn thousands from it. 

Then COVID arrived.

By May-June 2020, my online income had dropped to zero. The pandemic had turned everything upside down, and I was becoming frustrated. At that time, it felt like I had discovered a new world. I still remember checking my savings and realizing I had only around $400 left.

One day, a conversation from years earlier suddenly came back to me.

Back in 2017, Muntasir had told me about his uncle, who made money by building and flipping websites after doing SEO. What fascinated me was that he could work from anywhere while traveling. For some reason, I couldn’t stop thinking about that story.

So, in the last quarter of 2020, I made a decision that felt both risky and exciting – I spent almost all of my remaining $400 on SEO courses. Over the next three months, I completed the courses and spent countless hours practicing on my first website in the hiking niche. Most of my days were filled with learning, testing, failing, and trying again.

2021, 2022, 2024

Then, in the middle of 2021, another turning point arrived.

One day, I met my university senior, Umme Hany, and saw that she was doing a part-time job. For some reason, that inspired me. I couldn’t stop thinking about it. That afternoon I decided to message Ayon Chy and ask for an internship opportunity.

The funny thing is, we had never spoken before. I only knew him because he was already well-known in the SEO community. 

Ayon Chy gave me a few tasks as a test, and I completed them. The very next day, he offered me a remote position.

I happily accepted.

After about three months, he invited me to join a startup, Easyfie founded by Gofran Uddin. I still can’t explain how happy I was that day. It felt like I was finally stepping into the real world.

Easyfie was located in a startup hub under Bangladesh Hi-Tech Park, surrounded by nearly 30 startups. Every day felt like a new learning experience.

From day one, Ayon Chy guided me through every foundation of SEO. He was incredibly patient and taught me everything step by step. As I improved, he started involving me in his personal projects and shared advanced SEO strategies and techniques with me.

To me, Ayon Chy wasn’t just a senior or a mentor – he became an elder brother who helped me grow at every stage of my career.

2024

We worked together until 2024. During that time, I met many talented people, including a brilliant developer, Touhidul Islam Robi. I also brought Muntasir Ifraim into the team, and together we worked on multiple projects. Those were some really good days.

Of course, not every story goes perfectly.

One day, Muntasir Ifraim and I had an argument over something silly, and we decided not to work together anymore. Still we don’t talk as often as we used to, though we still catch up occasionally. Despite everything, he’s one of my best friends and supported me a lot in my early days. I hope we’ll fix things properly one day. 

This year is special for me. I completed my undergraduate degree with a major in Accounting and a minor in Finance. The funny part? I absolutely love Finance but still can’t say the same about Accounting😆 

2025

So in 2025, I left that place and immediately started looking for a new opportunity. Fortunately, it didn’t take long before I got hired and began the next chapter of my journey.

Now, I’m working as a Partnership Manager at Bit Apps.

I’ve had the opportunity to work with many talented people here, but I want to mention one person in particular – Abdul Kaioum, the founder of Bit Apps.

Before meeting him, I thought I had a pretty good way of looking at the world, life, people and more in general. Then I met him and realized there were levels of thinking. His perspective on the world, life, and people is something I truly admire. Beyond his talent, he’s simply a good human being.

I’m learning a lot from him about business, ideas, marketing, and market research. Nowadays I always try to be like him. I know it’s quite impossible.

2026

Recently, we launched PaymentForm.io – a simple form-based checkout tool for anyone who wants to collect payments online without the usual technical headaches. Whether it’s selling products, collecting donations, fundraising, or membership payments, we’re trying to make the process as simple as possible. More features, including digital products and event tickets, are on the way. This idea also came from Abdul Kaioum, and he shared the story behind it in this blog. 

When I look back at my journey, I realize I didn’t get here alone.

After my family I’ll always be grateful to a few people who played important roles in my life: Oni Mozumder, Muntasir Ifraim, Ayon Chy, and Abdul Kaioum.

So, I’m a guy who loves simplicity, making friends, traveling, SEO, Finance, and talking about technology. Most importantly, if you cook for me, we’ll probably become friends for life. 😄 

Thanks for reading! Take Love!
