If the researcher makes a fuss, the client can give them a bad rating. If I were dishonest this would be to my advantage.<BR/><BR/>If I were mainly a non-researching Tree Person, having little or no idea of the scope and depth of work required to develop genealogical evidence, I could act in ignorance to the disadvantage of the researcher.<BR/><BR/>The mailing list items you pointed to, Randy, discuss various aspects of such issues and more.

GenealogyFreelancers is a much smaller organization, is run by genealogists and we have the interests of both the seeker and the professional at its heart. Our comission rates are also a fraction of what Ancestry is offering. We ask that others take a look at what we have to offer before being swayed by branding. Small companies have been the back bone of any society and it appears that people are beginning to to demand their return. We will listen to any suggestion and implement if it's for the good of what we're trying to do. We believe in our idea. Check us out and contact us if you have even the slightest question.<BR/>Elaine Bostwick<BR/>www.genealogyfreelancers.comUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16790676968466977548noreply@blogger.com
