Outsourcing Work Using RentACoder
by Michael Cheney
There’s a great little website called RentACoder
that enables you to get any piece of work you can think of outsourced. The benefits
of outsourcing your work mean that you can get things done far quicker and often
far cheaper than you can do them yourself.
In the internet marketing landscape we’re often faced with the task of
having to do several things simultaneously in order to move our websites forward;
whether this be search engine optimization, link building, links research, article
creation, content writing, or whatever. Outsourcing gives you the option to
get all of these things done, and more, at a very, very low cost.
Once you get logged in to RentACoder, which is free to join, you can browse
through a series of work categories to see which types of coders are available.
You post your job with a brief description explaining exactly what it is you
want done. You might, for example, want conversion into Flash files; you might
want to build yourself a P2P web portal; you might want some articles written
about online business; maybe you want someone to build you a website; or maybe
you’re looking for a Java programmer.
Whatever your requirements, you can find extremely skilled and efficient workers
on the RentACoder website. You can browse through coders by looking at the type
of skills that they have, whether its website design, certain computer platforms,
XML, Linux or other skills.
It’s not just technical programmers that you’ll find on the website.
You can also find authors who are willing to write content for you. You may
have a requirement to produce a certain number of articles for your site. Rather
than use free content from article websites that are available, such as ArticleCity.com
or GoArticles.com, you might want some new content written for your site that
is totally unique and full of keywords and key phrases that will attract the
search engine spiders into your website.
You may also want to outsource other pieces of work through RentACoder. I’ve
used it on a number of occasions to do things like creating scripts. I’ve
also built a content management system using a coder on RentACoder.
There’s no end to what you can actually do with outsourcing. The only
limit is your imagination.
Once you’ve registered with them as a buyer, it’s very easy to
get your work completed. All you need to do is set the brief description of
your project, outline what it is that you want completed and then you await
bids from the coders.
You will get bids from all over the world; from coders in India, America, the
UK, and beyond. It’s then your job to choose from these various bids and
do a little bit of research to see which coder you would like to complete your
work.
You can view the actual CVs of each of the coders. You can also view the history
of other projects they have completed. You can view the ratings of each of the
coders, given to them by previous buyers they have completed work for. This
means you are able to make a very good decision on which coder to choose.
Before accepting a coder’s bid, you should get in contact with the coder
to establish that they respond quickly and effectively to your requests. Once
you’ve chosen a coder, you then escrow the funds to RentACoder and when
you are happy with the completed work, RentACoder will then pay the coder.
Everybody wins. It really is a great system. Check
