When outsourcing software development, it is a common question for both vendor and supplier – do you charge/purchase by the hour or by the project? I suppose there are merits to both types of software development contracts.
In my experience, if you wish to procure offshore software development at an hourly rate, then I recommend oDesk. They have good hourly reporting tools. In addition, in order to build trust in the relationship, they will take random screenshots of the developer to verify they are working on software development and not padding hours.
If you want project based, go to rentacoder or scriptlance. I still find these sites a bit lacking in the usability and design perspective, but they get they job done. Do you know of a better site? There are few others listed in the Outsource Marketplace section of the Offshore software development review section of this site.
