Forum posting services. (do you use them?)

    I'm considering setting up a forum posting service website.
    It would have 2 sides- one where people can purchase posts for their forum(s) and the other for people who would get paid to post on the forums.

    The site would have a report section so forum owners could validate the posts before the poster was paid.

    So the question is do you use forum posting services?
    Would you use a forum posting service to kickstart your forum?

    All thoughts on the idea apprieciated.

    Isn't DP already providing that? Its a not very big market so I don't think it'll be as successful as you might be imagining it.

    I have use it in the way that I used to post, 2$ for 20 or so, about an year ago when I was new and needed easy and quick money to get things done.

    Thanks for your feedback calypso.

    I know people offer the service here on the forums, but just about every service is offered somewhere on this forum.

    It's just a thought at the minute and looking for feedback like you gave to assess it's potential.

    Are you on about creating a freelance site for forum posters? LIke getafreelancer and elance but for forum posters only? I think it could be a struggle, as a lot of the people who forum post here on DP will not even look twice at your site because they are happy with DP, and quite often wouldn't want to bother signing upto another site. Sounds rather sinical, but a lot (not all) are pretty single minded and spend their whole day glued to DP.

    Hi kiteguy.

    Something along those lines. User signs in and request posts for there forum. This will then be assigned to someone to post on the forum.

    I'm thinking that if the forum owner could get a report advising of posts made it may make there life a little easier checking that job is done.
