Outsourcing to other countries!

Hello DP members,

Have you been considering outsourcing to other countries? Have you tried it as well? Do you think it is a good idea?

Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

 

Well,
I normally use GAF to post my projects and I am satisfied with the returns so far.

 

What are the possible outsourcing problems that one may come across?

 

could be scam , communication problems ,possible delay.

 

advantages are u get it in low prices....

 

best getting idea opinion

 

I only ever outsource small projects, where there isn't much money being transferred.

I've had a decent experience with most. Timezones cause problems, though.

 

It depends on the person you're outsourcing to in my opinion.

 

Outsourcing is best thing to save money without compromising on the quality of work. Outsourcing has let to emergence of competition.

 

Yep. I totally agree with you mate.

I think For organizations, outsourcing is now a necessity and a part of their daily operations. Nearly all web-based jobs are oursourced now. Web development can't be done by only 1 person. It requires joint efforts from experts like programmers, web designers, content writers etc. So for online businesses, it is not practical to employ so many people and best way to get rid of this is to oursource these services.

What country do you usually do the outsourcing?

 

Outsourcing is done where the matcheable labor/skill is available in abundance and at cheaper rates...usually web-based jobs are outsourced to India and Philippines. IMHO, the talent pool in these countries match those of the West!

 

Have you tried it personally? Please share some of your experiences. Thanks in advance!

I'm afraid I don't qualify to answer that buddy! Because I belong to that part of the world where work is outsourced to!

 

Okay, anyway thanks for sharing your thoughts in my thread.

 

Whether like it or not, that's the trend and future.

 

It worked very well for me, and I continue to do it

 

Hello 5starpix, may I know what country do you do it? Is it really worth it?

 

Outsourcing is a good way to cut down on marketing and optimization expenses. I've hired writers from the Philippines before and they're pretty competent. Their rates are way cheaper that American writers.

 

It has worked perfectly for me, I have been doing it for a few years now. But only for small projects.
