Should Outsourcing be Banned on DP or not ??

    Well I have been noticing that some people / writers are just trying to earn by simply outsourcing.

    Some writers just take the order from the clients originally at a price of like $5 / 500 words and then they get it done by other writers at just $2 or $3 for 500 words.
    It means in between they are earning some cash from it without doing some work according to me

    Because of this act the market of content creation is just ruined over here on DP, and badly affecting the writers and their earnings and reputation.

    What do you say guys should this stuff be banned or should some legal action be taken for it ....??

    well, i think it's a pretty sound business practice. Banning it would certainly hurt the people who take the $2-3 rates. :D

    As an Indian, I find it funny that an Indian guy has an objection to outsourcing.

    That is what we call tight competition brother. Sometimes when you buy something price/cost matters and sometimes quality too instead.

    Believe me if you are the buyer and you get a good quality product with a good price, nothing else really matter anymore.

    price war is been here for quiet long now and I think a lot of seller and buyer is ok with it as far as I know, so I think there is no such good reason to banned this kind approach in selling contents.

    And besides products with high competition on the seller side, as always the buyer get the benefits and with this setup DP will attract more buyer.

    Well actually I just PMed 2 guys who were requiring the writing services, then One guy send me the order of writing with a price of $13 for 3 articles of 500 words each, but I rejected it, and then suddenly after 25 mins I got another PM from another guy asking me to do the same project at a price of $10
    I observed that the order of articles was same only the price was different. Believe me this was one of a Creepy thing I saw

    this is not just with the content writing field, Indians is hitting every IT field adversely (no offense to anyone)

    The project worth $ 1000, and guess what strange people big $250 for that... surprisingly, in fact shockingly.

    but here comes the real part, they lack true expertise due to which most of their projects are complete failure, and they are actually helping nobody and making the market to risky and cheaper then peanuts

    I run a programming firm and many people just resale our services. I think its fine. They are doing advertising, bringing projects, handling clients so they are not just keeping profit they also have work to do ;).
