My brother used to do this - but most tech writing work moved to India right after the dot com implosion. Even $30/hour was too much when superior quality work could be had for $5.

I tried a few Indian technical writers. They could not write for sh*t. Learned my lesson. Only Americans from now on. Coding? Also Indian coders are now too expensive. I find I get better deals and better results from local college kids now.

“They could not write for sh*t. Learned my lesson. Only Americans from now on. Coding? Also Indian coders are now too expensive. I find I get better deals and better results from local college kids now.”

Companies sent the coding offshore and then paid twice as much for documentation and testing. Many still ended up with garbage. I agree with the local kids, can get them cheaper than India and without the attitude.
