Service Review
Last week I
put up a post asking for someone that does social bookmarking to contact me for a small project. I was frustrated sending out PMs, so i figured I'd let those that wanted my business come to me.
Mars was one of the few that responded, so that was a good start. I promised him an honest detailed review so here it is.
Good
I ordered 100 bookmarks, I got 109 bookmarks. Turn around time was great.
The way Mars goes about bookmarking is he submits urls to the major SB sites (Digg, Stumble, Reddit, Mixx, Propeller, Buzz) and then a bunch of others. Most are dofollow. A small portion are pliggs (maybe 1/5?)
He also took 3 titles, 3 descriptions and a bunch of tags and randomized them pretty well, so the submissions all look pretty real.
He normally uses fresh accounts, but I asked him to use aged accounts for this particular project, so that's good.
He's also very responsive and actively communicates.
Not so good
There's definitely a language barier with Mars. I found myself having to explain things quite a few times. It also didn't help that my project didn't fit his base package, because it took a while for us to get clear on what I was asking for.
If your project is straightforward and fits the the criteria in his OP, you shouldn't have any issues.
The other less-than-great aspect of this service is that I had to supply all of the descriptions and tags. On one hand, this IS "great" because it 100% customized, but if you just want to outsource and not think about it, you're going to have to take a couple of minutes to provide the inputs for the social bookmarks.
Again, these aren't "bad" things, but I figured some people may be legitimately concerned.
Conclusion
Mars is definitely a hardworking guy who gets the job done. If you have a straightforward, no B.S. social bookmarking order, I would have no problem vouching for his competence and reliability based on this one order.
