Companies are not the only institutions which takes advantage of this business strategy. There is a growing awareness of offshoring and outsourcing hence the development of P2P Offshoring.

Evaluserve confirmed the growth of this trend stating that offshoring has reached small businesses and P2P in different aspects. Some of the commonly outsourced tasks are the following:

-online tutoring
-web and software development
-writing and translation services

There seems to be only one problem though-payment. Some offshoring destinations do not recognize Paypal which could be a problem when receiving payments. Though that is the case, there are other services like moneybookers and xoom which could take care of that problem.
