We have a very short deadline approaching and we need roughly 80 hours of data entry completed. We're essentially copying content from our current site into our new site. We're looking to spread this work over 3-8 coders to get it done by Sunday afternoon at the latest. Below is a summary of the work, and outline of the work, and a tutorial video of the work to be done. We are willing to pay about .40 cents per page, which for us, amounts to about $10/hour at 25 pages per hour. However, we are pretty slow at it, on slow computers, and we're confident that people with better computers and better entry skills will be able to do it much more quickly. - Summary, Outline, Tutorial(htm file) and PDF attachment of files to copy included in attachment
## Deliverables
Deliverables include all of the data entered correctly! Exactly according to the description above. Please review the tutorial video and PDF attached. If we choose several coders, or if you have several available, we will collaborate on which pages will be done by whom. NOTE: Several of the pages have already been done on the PDF. On the first page, the entire first column is done, the second column is completed through #114, which is done in the tutorial. IMPORTANT: We have gone through them in column order, not rows. That means in the PDF that numbers 3, 4, 11, 12, etc have NOT been done, but numbers 105, 106, etc have. All files referenced in site header navigation have also been completed ([login to view URL], Menu/[login to view URL], etc.).

Note to all bidders: This project will close in 12 hours. It sounds like it will take at least three days to do, and I haven't gotten much confidence from anyone that they single-handedly will be able to do the project within the maximum 72 hours allotted for this, as that's when it MUST be completed by. I will award this project to (3) coders on the terms that each is able to get 1/3 of the project COMPLETELY finished within 72 hours, or by Tuesday evening, PST. Thank you.

Attention all bidders! I've made the following decision based on your feedback: I will be choosing (4) coders to divide the work among evenly. That means each coder will have roughly 530 pages to input. I will be choosing the coders at 8:00PM PST, that is in approximately 6 hours. I expect it to be completed no later than 12:00 PM PST Tuesday - That is roughly 64 hours from the start time. That should give each coder ample time to get their share done. I know that I would be able to do a share in about 2 working days, so this should be doable. If you have already bid on this for the entire project, please modify your bid to reflect 1/4th of the project. Thank you!
## Platform
this is a LAMP platform, just data entry, so this isn't super relevant.
