mrherman Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Does a reputable PHP service like this exist? Something like: -- Go to Paypal. Pay a set fee (e.g., $25). -- Contact a PHP programmer via email (or by phone), or he/she contacts you. -- Review your PHP problem(s) with him/her. Resolve problem(s). -- If problem persists and takes more time, make a further payment to Paypal or make arrangements with programmer. Thanks.

oni-kun Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 You've asked for a business model that fits the criteria, and I gave you one. There's nothing stopping you from writing your own for your own needs. You want them to be physically employed to you?

mrherman Posted April 21, 2010 Author Share Posted April 21, 2010 No, no...I would be in the market to access such a model, not build one. I'm so woefully unproficient that there are times that I would be more than willing to pay a PHP professional for solid advice.

Mchl Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 That's what we have a freelancing board section here for. Post your message there and perhaps someone will be interested in working with you.
