today's bump

Judging by the post count of the OP, the vendor mentioned, and some of the bumps here (example: 26), this looks like a scam in the making (not to mention that there has already been one negative report mentioned here, though this person's post count was low as well). Personally, I went through 3 teams over 4 or so months before finding the right people to bring into our company (including an award-winning team from the USA). And, though I'm not biased about the location of your workforce, I certainly agree that you need to find people that you can trust or you will face a world of business risks. :)

Only $9 an hour? Cool.

ivillage 12-26-2009 11:17 AM

yeah, $9 an hour

... $125/hr, ~$1k/d, ~300k/yr
things that make you go hmmmmmm.

In Thailand they say: "Mai abnaam - mai sa ahaat'' (No Indian - not clean) about people from India and that is not without a reason :2 cents:

...says the guy who owns the company that:

(1) designed and developed ClubXXXCams (original script) and ClubXXXCash;
(2) transformed this script into a licensed version called VCMS (which has been licensed by a couple of major adult companies already);
(3) is developing an HD compression app similar to ON2 that will be offered as an inexpensive alternative to this product; and
(4) is developing iPhone and BlackBerry apps for the adult industry.

Ref the logo contest vs. website --- maybe, logically, it is better to have your logo / color palette in place prior to designing the site? And, maybe we haven't developed our site until now due to the fact that we have been busy designing, developing, and marketing our core business process (namely VCMS)? Why hold a logo contest? Hmmm... exposure, an outsider's perspective for something fresh (especially after our team worked for nearly 1 year without vacations), or maybe to give something back for the comments that we have received over the past several months that, ultimately, led us to the release of VCMS? Take your pick.

Do your homework before you comment. :) I call the scam based on (1) the fact that someone (supposedly) tested this developer's services and came up with a blank and (2) the fact that the OP is very new, is bumping someone that is even newer, and it looks like it could even be the case of fake sigs being used. At least when I bump, I blatantly do it with my own sig. Nothing to hide here, no ulterior motive. :1orglaugh

To the OP's developer: I am not trying to take your business. Your hourly fees and ours are in significantly separate ranges. However, I am calling this thread on bullshit. I will invest $90 into you for 10 hours of test, immediately ($45 in advance, $45 on completion of the test, ePassporte paid via our business account). We will provide you with a reasonable amount of work for the time allotted with an extensive guideline to complete the test. If you complete the work with an acceptable standard of code and within the time allowed, I'll bump the shit out this thread for the next 365 days. The proverbial 'put your money and skills where your mouth is...' This is your time to shine! :winkwink:

My thoughts, exactly. :thumbsup I went through this with all of the teams that I mentioned in my earlier post (except the USA-based team), one of which was from India. Again, I'm not biased on workforce location but experience tells me that complex development will not get very far, especially if your provider is telecommuting.

Hi guys, i charge $9 per hr. yeah undercharge for regular works... :thumbsup

I don't know, but instead of bumping with no answers I think it would help you a lot to answer the questions made to you. Or to have samples of your work. I mean, something that helps people not to think what Magpan is saying. I mean, nobody here is stupid and everybody knows the OP, you and IVillage are the same person or at least working together, and most people here had really bad experiences with this kind of behaviors, so maybe you'd come clean on something instead of playing the dumb/mystery card

Just my 2 cents, do whatever you want, but I doubt you will have much success the way you're conducting yourself

I have waited for weeks with no response other than an email about personal problems being encountered that was preventing my work from being completed. The last email assured me that one of my sites would be complete 5 days ago, and I have not heard any further response, nor is the site completed.

Had I wired money (a deposit) via Western Union, Paypal or Epassporte to India, I would be out the money, plain and simple. In this case I wanted to test the designers ability by getting one very small project completed first, at which point I would pay and proceed to contract out larger projects.

I do still need to find a balance between contracting out to cheap foreign labour and the often grossly inflated prices charged by many North American based designers. I am not prepared to pay hundreds of dollars for what amounts to only a couple of hours work -- as I have done on one occasion in the past when the designer simply took one of my existing sites and made some cosmetic changes to it, and billed me $200 for an hour or two of work that I could have done myself if my idea of re-designing my site consisted only of changing some colours and a bit of the layout.

Again, this guy from Aden Design is very nice, but nice doesn't cut it when work needs to get done.

Why would any of you consider using him after this post that he never even responded to.

Hit me up on ICQ, I'll show you how to do it, (no I'm not a programmer and no I'm not going to refer you to anyone specific). :thumbsup

And to everyone else, the OP's website, http://www.adendreams.us/ is now parked at godaddy.

I use a group of ppl from India for SEO work for a webcam studio. They give me detailed weekly reports with full on/off page stats.

In less then one month they have gotten us on 1st page of google for our main keywords. 140 hours work = 600$, very impressed with these guys, and there hard work.

Cheap != Good

If you are good, you shouldn't be cheap. This should also be directly linked to Shap's thread about whats wrong with this industry.

drriley I feel your pain

Slutboat 05-21-2010 11:32 AM

Several people from this thread have made overtures to Aden Dreams (Dominic) for programming work - A couple of you had bad experiences, with communication or otherwise - this is because a few bad apples from GFY tried to scam him into doing programming then not paying him. Aden Dreams told me there are many "cheaters" on GFY so he became sceptical about GFY webmasters and thus wasn't very responsive to some of the inquiries from this thread - however I'm just writing to let any prospective employers for Dominic know that if you treat him fairly and pay on time for the work he delivers to you, he's a really great and reliable multi-platform programmer that gets big and small jobs on time and for amazing prices.

adendreams 05-21-2010 02:43 PM

Hi slutboat, thanks for your reply.

I had bad experience with guys in GFY. Give me some work to test my programming skills and abilty. After finished the work you will pay for that. If you are not satisfied with my work no need to pay at all.

Please contact me on icq, im always ready to work with you reliable guys.

Slutboat 05-22-2010 12:35 PM

no worries :)
