Decent Indian Outsourcing Companies charge 50$/hrs. Authors friend was willing to pay 12$/hr and he got what he payed for.

Outsourcing or not, if you want cheap, you will get cheap.



The whole point of outsourcing is to get something done at lower cost. If $50/hr isn't significantly lower than what it would cost here (including factoring in the intangible costs such as communication time, etc) then outsourcing would no longer be compelling.


$50/hr is extremely cheap in the US. You can find some competent people at this level, but mostly pretty green. If you are hiring an actual agency, competency probably starts at $100.
