    Hi,

    Has anyone had experience hiring workers from these sites to write posts on their websites, Facebook or Twitter? I am wondering if such an approach drives any traffic to a website and if it helps or hurts with SEO. Thanks!

    I had tried out microworkers sometime back, the problem is there are lots of scammers out there and i got a job done from 50 odd guys, money went and they undid the job that i got done, basically guys are out there trying to make pennies by scamming people and dont see the money that they can earn when it is lying right on their table.

    IMO, they are OK...LOTS of false signups etc.....usually break even...

    I tried something like this way back when I started out with silly GPT sites and it definitely wasn't the best experience. A lot of scammers, but also some quality workers that actually do the job well. To me it wasn't worth it as most of the time the workers took too long or straight up didn't do the job at all.
