Outsourcing SEO work - how to make sure your workers are working? Screenshot software?
I have outsourced before for some SEO work, and while work was definitely done - a lot of the time I felt like I was not getting the work done as promised by the worker. They said they would spend X amount of hours working per day, which we both agreed to - but when the reports came, I felt like they were spending about 1/5th of what they said they would.
I know Odesk has the automatic screenshot software, but I want to hire someone full time from the Philippines and not through Odesk (I don't want to keep paying their fees). I have had a look at some screenshot software and I guess I could just ask the employee to set it to take screenshots every X minutes and at the end of the working day, zip them all up and upload them online and give me the link to it - so I can check over it.
Do you think this would work? How do you guys ensure that the people you hire and working as promised?
When I actually outsourced, I had a worker of mine working for me full time apply for another position I put up and he didn't even know it was me. That tells me he must have been applying like crazy for any SEO jobs put online... that's not what I want! And coincidentally, this is the one who was providing me with what seemed to be like 1hrs worth of work instead of 5, every day.
Any ideas?
Just here to see the shenanigans.
