What’s peopleperhour?

Peopleperhour is a website where buyers can post projects and providers can bid to win the work.

Register as a buyer or a provider or both (but you will require different email addresses)

Post projects:

• Add in title
• Can work be carried out remotely or will both parties need to meet up, etc?
• Description of the work required (it is possible to attach up to three files)
• Enter bidding end date and project start date
• Enter budget range
• Post project and wait for bids to come in or invite people to bid for your project
• Choose provider (PPH operates on a ‘sealed bids’ basis. The winning bid amount is revealed in “Recently Awarded” projects, anonymously)
• Proposals will come in for the work – choose service provider
• Release payment to service provider when work complete (through secure Escrow system)
• Leave feedback

Service Providers:

Register as a service provider by entering:

• Name, email and a chosen password.
• Job title
• Your services
• Photo (if required)
• Account type – freelancer or name of company you work for
• Skills, experience, qualifications
• References (these are hidden from your profile, however these will be sent with every bid for work you place
• Choose whether to make your profile can be made available to search engines or not.

PPH makes money by charging a small commission fee to providers who complete projects. This is £15 for projects £150 and under 8.51% + VAT for projects over £150.
