Blue Board entries
Aug 1, 2015
Since it is possible to have a Blue Board entry for an outsourcer who is not even a member of ProZ.com, I can't see any logical reason why one shouldn't be allowed for a translator who also sometimes outsources work — many existing BlueBoard entreis do indeed fall into that category.
However, I would imagine it would be only logical for them to insist that the entry be made by soemone other than the outsourcer themselves! Perhaps you could ask one of your regular service providers... See more

As our colleague has said, you do of course also have the WWA on your profile — although that isn't specificaly intended for giving feedback about an outsourcer, there doesn't seem to be anything to stop its being used in that way.
Do just be aware, though, that while only positive entries are allowed on profile WWA, having an entry on the BlueBoard does equally expose you to the risk of unfavourable comments! ▲ Collapse
