In a lot my threads....I've noticed that a lot of you guys recommend outsourcing.

Now I've started doing this with fiverr (write my content)....and here on the WF (for high pr backlinking).

Am I heading in the right direction??

My sites consist of Amazon Reviews (want to get away from...low pay),
A couple of Private Affiliate programs, 1 Clickbank site (being built now), and 2 CPA email only sites (being built now).


>How can I outsource my Keyword research (I can do this myself...i'm okay at it...... but would love the help from experts).

>Also, how and who should I outsource building my sites to.....(how do I train someone to add plug-ins, themes, content, banners and link at a decent price?)

I DON'T HAVE alot of money so I'm starting small here.


Any recommendations???...I'm thinking about hiring from the Philippines.....

I just need all this to be cost effective


Thanks for all your guys help!!! as I could not do this journey with out the WF...

    derh, sounds like you're doing some smart business. I was wondering if you have tried the feature on fiverr where you can request a service. I think this might be a good place to go for your keyword research. A lot of times you can find a reliable person on there and they can do all your future research for you too. Also, there are many people on there that are skilled at adding plugins, content, and banners etc.. Just get there AIM or skype and you can hire them for future jobs as they come up.

    Good Luck

      No, I never have. I must have missed that feature...I'm looking into it now.

      THanks Again!

        how about Word-press site preparation? I have about 8 plug-ins, a theme, 6 banners, 2 articles (after they've been written) and 30 or 40 text links to add.


        Any ideas of the cheapest place to turn..

          That shouldn't be anything more than $50 (This does not mean $50 everytime, can be lower too in most of the cases)

          For outsourcing sites you may want to see past examples (if outsources are comfortable showing it, since privacy has to be maintained at all costs)
          For outsourcing backlinks, check for quality, don't fall for $2 for 20k backlinks.
          To be honest 'Quality or Quantity', you can't choose both.

    There's a few guys in the WSO forum that do keyword research. It's not ground-breaking stuff, but you can learn what experts do when you read their reports. It will take your KW research to the next level.

    careful with the fiverr articles. You can get some good stuff but you've really got to hunt for it and you could end up wasting money/time rewriting crap articles. Content is not something you should skimp on. Outsourcing is great but it's really best if you truly understand the process yourself first!

    Yes outsourcing is definitely worth it and highly recommended. I use people on this forum in the warriors for hire section and I also use odesk a lot. You can basically name your price on odesk. You just need to know exactly what you want to outsource.

    I outsource most of the tasks that I hate to do, hint: article writing and link building.

    You can send a step by step video and pdf report clearly explaining them how to do all the tasks. You can also provide them further support through skype or email.

    Thanks.

    So far I had 1 of my 2 websites in which i used 2 fiverr gigg and a tiered bookmarking tool ranking in top 10 for a +- 1K exact search in 1 week!..but it's too early to tell..it'll probably dance here and there in the next couple of weeks..Is it worth it? to me YES as I don't have the capacity to do all that since I have a full time job..

    I would definitely urge you to outsource most of your work.

    However, you don't have to hire a full time person to do this. Just start outsourcing more projects to the Warrior Forum, Fiverr, and Backlinks Forum.

    You'll be paying per job, and it's all on a performance basis. Work gets done, you pay.

    staff leasing service enables you to set up your own offshore staff in the Philippines hired on your behalf who will work for you exclusively. Your lease staff are backed by a good management and technical team. Also, your files and data are secured and confidential.



    I would advise to hire a Staff leasing company instead of a freelancer. Freelancers do not have employers so they do as they please and sometimes cannot be contacted for various reasons and maybe working with other clients at the same time.
