I took a moment to analyze the current 3 web development projects I have outsourced via Elance and RentACoder. Using these 3 projects, here are the bids by country breakout:

India 22
Romania 9
USA 4
Argentina 2
UK 1
Russia 1
Pakistan 1

What do we learn from these numbers? I’m not exactly sure, it’s small sample size. I find the lack of diversity interesting. In other words, I expected to see a larger population of countries participating in the web development project bidding. Also, I’m not experiencing offshore web development bids from China or Ukraine

The web development projects in question here are 1 web design, 1 oscommerce customization, 1 web design and web development with backend functionality.
