<p>If you have ever used a freelancer network like <a href="http://www.elance.com/p/landing/buyer.html" target="_blank">elance</a>, <a href="http://www.freelancers.net" target="_blank">freelancers</a>, or any other, I want to hear from you. Especially if you&#8217;ve used it for reputation monitoring or management. <strong>Share your experiences here</strong>, so that everyone looking will have some insight on which networks are best suited for this type of exchange. <strong>Read on for a list of questions we&#8217;d like you&#8217;re input on</strong>, to help others seeking freelance reputation management assistance or opportunities.</p>
<p><span id="more-120"></span>Your experience is relevant if you&#8217;ve ever:</p>
<ul>
<li>responded to a reputation management project</li>
<li>looked to hire for a reputation management project</li>
<li>responded to an SEO project</li>
<li>hired for an SEO project</li>
<li>responded to a social media project</li>
<li>hired for a social media project</li>
</ul>
<p>Most people hiring reputation managers are individual businesses or one man shops outsourcing outside of their specialty. So the likelihood of sharing valuable information with your competition here is unlikely (if you happen to care about that sort of thing).</p>
<p>What kind of information would be helpful to share with the community? Here are a few ideas to stimulate your thought process:</p>
<ol>
<li>What was the deciding factor for you using one service over another? User Interface? Number of members? Specialized focus? Personal referral?</li>
<li>How much are company&#8217;s willing to pay for this service (and name the service)?</li>
<li>How much bidding competition is there on the service you used for each project?</li>
<li>Are the bidding clients knowledgeable enough about the service they need to hire wisely?</li>
<li>Are the bidding clients completely ignorant and hoping to pay pennies only?</li>
<li>What have you noticed differentiates the good clients from the bad clients on the service(s) you use?</li>
</ol>
<p>That should get you started. Detailed comments are encouraged. Someone somewhere is going to search for more information on how to choose the right freelance service. We want to provide that helpful information below. Please take the time to read any and all comments below and ask questions of the commentors before you. If you post a comment, please return a few times to this post and make sure you haven&#8217;t been asked a question about your experience.<br />
