Earlier in the year I asked readers whether they outsourced any part of their blogging in a poll. By outsourcing I was talking about ‘paying‘ someone else to do something on your blog.
Here are the results after 2195 responses.
I was actually a little surprised that the number was so small because in the introduction to the poll I included things like ‘blog design’ in what could be included in outsourcing.
Here are the types of things that those who said ‘yes’ said that they outsourced:
- tech/managing the backend (updates, plugins etc)
- product creation/design
- writing of posts – staff writers
- writing of posts – ghost writing
- blog/logo design
- marketing
- comment moderation
- SEO
- administrative tasks
- editing/proofing posts
- selling advertising
