[wp-pro] wp-pro Digest, Vol 60, Issue 14

[Ash Goodman]

@Cathy,

I think there is not / can not be a hard and fast rule of what constitutes a
pro. Like much in life its a buyer beware kind of situation. Also like much
in life there will always be varying levels of expertise and different kinds
of clients and projects for each level (and I do not mean to open the door
to trying to determine what 'level' a given pro belongs in).

I think if the buyer wants to be more careful about who they hire they can
ask for referrals, past examples of work etc.

the burden is on the buyer to vett the person they hire - its not nor should
it be the responsibility of the community.
