Site Admin Website Maintenance Services

Your Job, Our Job: Leveraging Your Workload

As webmasters and website owners we are often tasked to perform routine redundant duties that can easily be done by someone with less technical expertise than us. Tasks such as website testing, live link and page error checking, and ads management at the site can be delegated to someone else and leave you, the webmaster, the time to work on more crucial issues on your site.

In a world without boundaries, we can easily find someone to do those tasks for us at a price, of course. However, we may have some hesitation in turning over partial control to someone we don’t know. Will this person feel as responsible for your website? Will he or she be more proactive in making sure that you profit from the site? Will these hired guns have good work ethics that will push them to deliver results beyond what is expected? These questions may be running in your mind now as when they were bugging me when I began re-thinking how I do business online.

Outsourcing is a word we often skirt around, fearing the wrong impression when the word comes up in conversation. “So how’s it going, mate?” “I’ve been doing well. I have outsourced most of my work.” “Outsource?” This along with a look of skepticism directed at you as if they were thinking that you’re just throwing money on something not worthwhile. What more then when they find out you have been outsourcing offshore?

Finding someone to work for you online doesn’t necessarily require that the person be a resident of the same country as you. Because the web has made communication limitless, highly skilled workers from as far as the South East Asia or Western Europe can find jobs online. And if hiring talented people through the web costs much less than hiring someone locally, then why not do it? You get the same level of expertise at a lower cost.

Aside from that cultural attitudes towards work can influence the quality of results you receive. Workers who were taught to value work and to always strive for excellence in what they do will work wonders for you and your business. However, this doesn’t mean that locally hired employees are less hardworking than their offshore counterparts. All I’m saying is that mediocrity and the acceptance of it by society has shown a highly significant impact on how students perform at school and on employees’ work performance in offices and on the field.

Choosing and Managing Your Agent

The decision to hire someone to work for you online is inevitable. Your business keeps expanding and sooner or later you’d need another pair of hands to help you out. This is called “leverage.” Leveraging your workload will give you MORE time to enjoy life. Earning more by working less hasn’t been more perfect as a business model than in the World Wide Web.

So how do you manage this? Selecting an agent, checking to see if their skills fit your needs and managing their work performance may be new responsibilities for some self-made Netrepreneurs, but these are a normal part of becoming the project manager for your own site.

In any new relationship there always will be a stage of getting to know each other. At Agents of Value we encourage clients and agents to build on a foundation of friendship for their work relations to prosper. When two minds meet and synchronize, it becomes possible to achieve the business goals you have set.

Select your agent by going to the Human Resources page. The availability of agents by position is ever changing. There is no guarantee that you will immediately find the one you were looking for. However there is an option to be included in the waiting list. Just contact our Online Assistant through chat by clicking the buttons indicating the chat client you prefer - Yahoo, AIM or Skype - or you can send an email through the form below or the one found on the Contact Us page.

Site Admin Job Description

The Site Admin (as it is commonly referred to) manages a website’s popularity and growth. Unlike the webmaster which takes care of the site’s functions and database, the site admin makes sure the site works as it should be when used or navigated through by visitors. Links are checked and site processes such as signing up for membership is queued for Quality Assurance. Simply put: site admins work as assistants to Webmasters.
