We tried it, here is our experience.
1/ Time zone was a problem, were told that our guy would work same time as us. That never happened and we only had contact with him for 3 hours a day.
2/ We gave instructions to build a front page tour, gave him samples of what we wanted, opened up all our content for him to select what he needed. The site niche was Euro teens which is 90% of our content. The webmaster selected the 10% Asian content we have and used that.
3/ Webmaster kept changing. One day it was all "yes sir I can do that for you sir" then the next day it was "hey dude no problem, that?s cool, will get on it now dude". Obviously we were not always talking to the same dedicated webmaster.
4/ Lot of typo errors in design, even put the wrong domain name in the logo.
The design was average, overlooking the fact all Asian girls were used. It was quick but had to go back for corrections. The guy was polite and helpful even with his split personality.
You get what you pay for I suppose.
