Out sourcing SEO
Ask th SEO Guru just did a great write up on out sourcing SEO. He covered a few topics such as the average programmers pay rate in the us compared to India. Quite honestly I think US programmers are under paid big time. 40k a year is very low thats like barely enough money to live some what ok if you ask me. I think the on going rate for programmers should be at 50k plus a year, but then again I guess that depends I’ve seen some government jobs offering pay rates at 70-80k a year, but getting a government job can be more complicated then just walking in the ordinary IT company.
Well Massa covered the pay rate in India which is about 1k a month for a programmer sometimes less depending on location and geographical areas. The thing is about this post I like most he mentioned you must have management in place and thats very true such as having someone you can trust to make sure every one is doing what there supposed to be doing, and of course you would pay this person the most out of every one.
Out sourcing anything IT related can be very beneficial, and profitable, but the thing is if your just the average person looking for a company to build your website or do your SEO you will be a lot better of hiring a US company because out sourcing takes some skills and you have to know how to work with the people, so if your someone looking for SEO services don’t automatically think you can go hire a seo company in India and have great results, you’d be a lot better leaving it up to a us company to handle all this.
The reason I say leave it up to a US company is because there is a lot more to it, you have to know who you can trust and can work with. Generally when you been around for awhile you meet certain people and you know who you can trust. You know how to grade people skills set, you know who more reputable, and etc. For example could you just go in somewhere with out know anything about a certain field such as a doctor and take care of the hiring for them, no I don’t think so. Thats why your best to stick with then your grounds out sourcing is not for every one if you ask me.
