The company is headed up by Abul Kashem. Being in operation since 2008 makes BDHire one of the longer established companies in the fast-paced virtual assistant space.

Their target customers are social media and web design companies, travel, hotels and real estate businesses, as well as individual entrepreneurs and small business owners.

Looking at their in-house experts available for hire, they have a lot of services aimed at the smaller online entrepreneur. This was confirmed when I asked what their areas of specialization were, BDHire said, “full-time webmasters, link builders, SEO specialists, internet marketing experts, SBI webmasters and WordPress developers.”

Services

A lot of the company’s services are directed helping online business owners with their websites through the use of their virtual assistants. Their core services can be summarized as follows:

Link Building – They have a team of dedicated link builders, submitting articles and website URLs to directories and social bookmarking sites.

Keyword Research – They can find and provide a list of keywords in your chosen niche. As well as preparing a content creation blueprint.

On-Page SEO – They can analyze your existing content and ensure you are optimized for relevant keywords and your content is SEO friendly.

Niche Site Creation – BDHire have a team of experienced niche site builders. They can start a site for you either by choosing a niche or following your guidelines.

WordPress Services – Complete WordPress support, so you can invest your time in other areas of your business and leave the technical support to their experts.

SBI Services – Their experts will build a site from scratch or work on a site you already have. They can also move your site over to WordPress with a “smooth and successful transition.”

Plans and Pricing

Their rates vary per project and expert being hired.

Their minimum hourly rate is $17 per hour to give you a good idea of how much you will be paying and how they compare to other virtual assistant companies. BDHire representatives are happy to discuss each project’s individual needs and give you a more accurate quote.

In addition to rates that are 2-3x higher than their geographic neighbors, they also charge a one-time $250 set up fee, which is actually pretty uncommon in the industry.

BDHire Alternatives

What sets BDHire apart from general VA companies is their expertise in SEO, WordPress and niche sites. If you’re looking for support in these areas I would discuss you needs with them and get a quote.

If your needs are more varied or don’t require that type of specialization, you can probably save money by checking out competitors like My Tasker or VA Talks.

Their candidates go through a two-week training course where they cover using MS office, social media tools, and complete dummy projects to develop an understanding of their roles.

Each virtual assistant signs a Nondisclosure Agreement so you don’t need to worry about your confidentiality being breached. When you sign up for a package you are assigned a Customer Success Manager. This member of staff acts as your point of contact to ensure you’re happy with how things are going.

AcelerarTech has implemented a time-tracking tool to keep you in touch with your virtual assistant. This allows you to keep up-to-date with how your tasks are progressing. You can view screenshots of your work being completed and contact your virtual assistant with any feedback you have.

UrbanTimer is a virtual assistant company based in Kolkata, India. The company was founded in February, 2016.

Although the company is a fairly new addition to the virtual assistant space, UrbanTimer was founded by two individuals with considerable experience in the industry.

About UrbanTimer

UrbanTimer operates out of Kolkata, India. All of their virtual assistants are based in their offices and managed in-house. The company puts each of their virtual assistants though “an extensive process” to ensure they are hiring fluent English speaking workers with a wide range of skills.

The company founders are Bikash and his spouse, Rima. Bikash is a former co-founder of MyTasker, and has a wealth of experience as an entrepreneur and as a virtual assistant himself. Heading up UrbanTimer, Bikash plans to offer an unparalleled service not found with other virtual assistant providers.

The company are “committed to help people save valuable time.” Meaning, by outsourcing your business tasks to UrbanTimer you can free up your own time to focus on other areas of your business.

Their target customers are busy professionals and entrepreneurs anywhere in the world. This also includes small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as large corporate organizations. Anyone looking to outsource tasks at a cost-effective price can benefit from their services.

Services

Getting started with UrbanTimer is straightforward. You sign up via their site for one of their packages, or you can contact them to discuss your requirements first.

UrbanTimer offers a wide range of services, including the following:

• Administrative assistance
• Social Media services
• Research tasks
• Customer service
• Website design and maintenance
• Content writing
• Email management

If you have a specific virtual role in mind, they recommend contacting them to discuss your exact requirements.

Plans and Pricing

UrbanTimer currently have five different payment plans. Their plans start at $100 for 10 hours, with their largest plan being $600 for 100 hours. So, the hourly rates range from $10 an hour to as low as $6 on hour.

Full Pricing Table (correct at time of publishing):

• 10 hrs per month – $100 ($10/hr)
• 20 hrs per month – $190 ($9.5/hr)
• 30 hrs per month – $270 ($9/hr)
• 50 hrs per month – $350 ($7/hr)
• 100 hrs per month – $600 ($6/hr)

With all these plans, your Account Manager oversees the tasks you send and assigns the best fit VA to work on the tasks.

UrbanTimer also offers a dedicated full-time assistant (with backup) for $1,500 a month, and an “Infinite” plan offering you the chance to buy as many hours as want a month on-demand. You start by paying $15 an hour for the first 50 hours, then the rate drops to $10 an hour for the remaining hours you purchase.

The rates for the “planet”-named plans are definitely competitive in the industry, as is the on-demand offering. The full-time dedicated assistant rate is a little higher than what you may find at other companies.

If you are new to using VAs or want to sample their services, UrbanTime does offer a free trial. This offer includes 5 free hours of virtual assistant time over 2 days.

UrbanTimer Alternatives

As you know, there are several options for quality virtual assistant companies in India. Bikash’s last startup, MyTasker, is among the most popular and well-rated. You might also consider VA Talks or VMG BPO.

One thing I like to do is to contact two or three companies to compare services, prices, and communication before making a decision.

The company offers a wide range of services, carried out by fully-vetted, skilled assistants, and being based in India they are able to offer competitive rates.

About TaskVirtual

When I asked Task Virtual about their company directive they said, “we are committed, on time, dedicated, and shoulder all the responsibilities of our clients.” With speed and accuracy being two of the more important reasons to start outsourcing, it’s reassuring to hear this directly from a company.

Their target customers are business owners and entrepreneurs in need of additional support without employing their own staff. TaskVirtual’s staff are available to start work at short notice without any long-term contracts.

When you sign up with TaskVirtual.com you purchase a number of tasks or an amount of hours. When you send over details of the tasks you want completed they find an assistant with the best-matched skillset to carry out the work. This means you have access to a large pool of assistants to take advantage of different skills, as opposed to being tied to the same assistant as offered by some companies. You do however have the option of a dedicated assistant should you prefer to work with the same person.

All their virtual assistants are managed in-house by line-managers and they will also accommodate your working hours and timezone. On paper, Task Virtual tick all the right boxes and they appear to have plenty of flexibility.

Be as detailed as possible and give plenty of feedback to your assistant.

Task Virtual offer packages for two different types of services; Personal Assistance Services, and Business Assistance Services.

There are three different plans within their Personal Assistance Services. The packages are priced in task bundles, with tasks being classified as 10-15 minute jobs each;

• 20 tasks – $39 per month ($1.95 per task)

TaskVirtual Alternatives

On the personal / task-based side of things, your primary competitors are OkayRelax, which has plans ranging from $2.50 to $4 per task, but allows tasks up to 30 minutes (vs. 15 at TaskVirtual). OkayRelax also provides a dedicated assistant on their higher tier plans, which may or may not be appealing to you.

The other company I did a trial with a few years ago that might be worth checking out is Efficise, which runs a similar task-based model out of Pakistan.

On the business assistance side, I’d take a look at MyTasker or TaskBullet, and reach out to start a conversation and see which might be the best fit for your specific needs.

MyTasker is a well-established and fast growing firm in the virtual assistant industry. The India-based company was founded in 2012 by three veteran VAs, who brought years of experience to the table.

Since the MyTasker team spent the time in the trenches, they know how to take care of clients and were able to recruit high-performing professional virtual assistants to join their team.

They started out as a contract service on Freelancer.com, and after gaining some traction on that platform decided to launch as a standalone operation.

Services

My Tasker offers a dedicated virtual assistant service starting at 10 hours a month.

This plan, dubbed Professional Assistance, plans target entrepreneurs who need affordable help in their business.

Your dedicated MyTasker VA can handle everything from customer support (online or over the phone), transcription, social media management and online marketing, online research, website maintenance and more.

Naturally, your virtual assistant can handle general administrative tasks as well such as appointment setting, travel or restaurant reservations, or other back-office tasks that can be completed remotely.

In addition to these types of tasks, MyTasker has also added two new specialty divisions for SEO and for a virtual receptionist service. I’ll show you the details and pricing for those services below.

MyTasker Intro Video

How it Works

With My Tasker, you’re assigned a qualified VA based on the anticipated roles you need filled. You can communicate via phone, email, or Skype, and delegate tasks on a recurring or on-demand basis. For each task you delegate, they’ll either tackle it themselves, or request help from a qualified team member.

Your pre-purchased hours expire at the end of each billing cycle, but there are no long-term contracts and you can cancel at any time.

Your VA’s hours are tracked inside MyTasker’s internal dashboard so you can always log in and see how much time you have left for the month.

MyTasker Review

Since then I’ve used their service for some daily database maintenance tasks and found them to be quite reliable. At one point, my VA had moved on to a new role within the company and it was several days before I even found out because she’d taken full responsibility to train her replacement.

Plans and Pricing

The rates for Professional Assistance start at $140 for a 10-hour a month plan, and go all the way down to $7.50/hr for a massive 160-hour plan.

That means you can have a full-time 40-hour a week VA for just $1200, which is a strong value for ongoing business support. If you want to take the service for a test drive, I suggest selecting one of the smaller plans to start with, and then scaling up your engagement from there. (Use the discount code below!)

Pricing Table (accurate at press time):

• 10 hrs per month – $140 ($14/hr)
• 20 hrs per month – $250 ($12.50/hr)
• 40 hrs per month – $450 ($11.25/hr)
• 60 hrs per month – $600 ($10/hr)
• 100 hrs per month – $900 ($9/hr)
• 160 hrs per month – $1200 ($7.50/hr)

If at any time you go over your plan’s hours, additional time can be purchased at $15 an hour (assuming staff availability).

VAA Exclusive: Get 20% off your first month w/ discount code VAA20MT.

Virtual Receptionist Plans

My Tasker added a call answering service where you can have a virtual receptionist answer your business line 24 hours a day. They’ll log and record each call, and give your company a professional presence on the phone.

SEO Packages

And finally, if you need help with SEO and driving more traffic to your site from Google and other search engines, MyTasker has built up a dedicated team of SEO experts.

The service includes on-page optimization and off-page link building, and is ideal for local businesses. You pick the 10 most important pages on your site you want to rank for, and the SEO guys get to work.

Google is notoriously fickle so don’t expect results overnight, but over time you should begin to climb in the rankings.

I asked Ronny, the COO, what sets My Tasker apart from the competition, both in India and elsewhere. He explained that the team’s extensive experience in the industry, especially on the customer service side, gives them an advantage.

“We have the freedom to go that extra mile to make sure our customers are satisfied,” he says, implying that other larger VA companies don’t necessarily afford that freedom.

YourDailyTasks (formerly YourDailyTask) is a virtual assistant company based in Mumbai, India with a sales office in the UK. The firm was established in 2008 and has grown to a team of nearly 200 virtual assistants serving over 6000 clients worldwide.

They’re open 24/7, and target a more business-oriented client base, as opposed to individuals and sole proprietors.

Your Daily Tasks Services

YourDailyTasks offers a wide variety of outsourced work services, including IT support, web and graphic design, accounting, transcription, search engine and social media marketing, and more.

Of course, you’ll also find standard administrative and virtual assistant support as well.

Beyond these services, YourDailyTasks has special packages just for email marketing, 24-hour live chat support, and even a dedicated Twitter account manager.

Related: Should You Outsource Social Media? 

In this way, your VA can be an asset to your team in interacting with customers and helping answer their questions via live chat on your site, email, or even Twitter.

MBA Virtual Assistants are available for special projects like market research, competitor analysis and finance management.

YourDailyTasks have self-hosted task management tool based on ActiveCollab (they call it Portal) where you can assign tasks, track hours and communicate with your virtual assistant(s). If you prefer, you can also assign tasks via email, chat, Skype, or phone.

How it Works

Plans and Pricing

Pricing for a YourDailyTasks virtual assistant begins at $8.99 per hour for their 10-hour plan. As you might expect, the rates decrease as you buy more time.

The popular 20-hour a month plan is just $159.80, or $7.99 an hour, and a full-time dedicated VA is only $958.40, just $5.99 an hour!

All the small plans up to 40 hours are task-based and you will be only charged if you assign a task. The 80 and 160-hour plans doesn’t expire at the end of month; your hours rollover and you have up to 6 months to use them.

(Obviously try and delegate 700 hours worth of work to your dedicated assistant in month 6!)

YourDailyTasks will also quote project-based work is your needs don’t justify an ongoing virtual assistant.

YourDailyTasks is a well-established, affordable, and long-running Indian VA company, but they’re not the only game in town. If you’re shopping around, you might consider My Tasker as well, though their rates are slightly higher.

IconAssist Services is an Indian-based virtual assistant company. The company is headed up by two individuals more than 10-years experience in the outsourcing industry and they have been in business since 2015.

Their head offices are in Coimbatore, India, and they also have a sales office in Bangalore. Being based in India they are able to offer competitive rates, and their assistants provide support across a wide range of industries.

About IconAssist

IconAssist is a professional virtual assistant company based in India. They provide virtual assistants and offer a wide range of skills to help you outsource some of those time-consuming tasks within your business.
Their company directive is to “bring excellence in everything that we do”. They say they have experience supporting businesses of all sizes and across a wide range of industries.

All of the assistants working for IconoAssist.com (not a typo; was IconAssist.com taken?) have been through multiple screening processes. They go through general general analytics tests, as well as written and spoken English tests to ensure the communication between client and assistant will be fluid.

When you sign up you will be assigned an assistant based on the skills and experience you need to complete your tasks. They don’t go into much detail about their assistants and pricing on their site, you need to contact them directly to discuss your individual requirements.

Services

IconAssist’s virtual assistants provide support for a wide range of tasks. They group their skillsets into six areas, and while this is not an exhaustive list of their services it gives you an idea of some areas they specialize in:

• Administrative Services – Email management, calendar management, personal assistant duties.
• Data Entry Services – OCR services, data extraction, data input.
• Data Mining Services – Database building, LinkedIn contact searching, social media data mining, email list mining.
• eCommerce Processing – Product data entry, image editing, storefront management, order processing, inventory management.
• Remote IT and Server Support – Mail support, web hosting support, IT support.
• SharePoint Admin Services – Installation of SharePoint collaboration and content, SharePoint support.

They company lists back-office operation for small and medium businesses, lead generation, eCommerce order management, and image editing as their areas of specialization.

How Icon Assist Works

This flow chart shows how the Icon Assist process works, starting with your project requirements and seeing the task through to completion.

Plans and Pricing

What’s frustrating is that IconAssist does not currently offer any publicly available monthly plans or packages, neither do they have any flat hourly rates set. I was surprised to not even see a ballpark range of pricing on their site, and when I asked their team how much it costs, all I got back was this not-helpful chart:

To get a quote and discuss how their assistants can help you and your business you need to contact them directly to obtain an individual quote.

IconAssist Alternatives

Among other VA companies in India, AskSunday and My Tasker offer similar services and may be worth a look.

When asked what separates them from their competitors, IconAssist say their, “transparent process, innovative and customer driven approach, well-aligned processes, people and infrastructure to provide everything that our clients need, and on time.”

With no shortage of highly rated virtual assistant companies based in India it makes sense to get quotes from more than one before making a decision.

eLuminous Technologies is a professional virtual assistant company. The company is a partnership firm owned by Sandeep Aher and Hrushikesh Wakadkar, and they have been operating since 2002. 

Being in business for over 13 years makes eLuminous Technologies one of the more established virtual assistant companies in the industry.

About eLuminous Technologies

The company is based in Nashik, India, where they operate out of a huge facility with a team of over 80 staff. They work around the clock to accommodate all the timezones of their clients, offering services during EST, PST, GMT and AEST timezones.

(In the video below you’ll see a crew of VAs working the night shift to serve clients during US business hours.)

As you would expect with a company of this size, eLuminous have a large pool of skills within their 80+ staff. They have split into several different departments, and aim to match clients up with the most suitable assistant or team.

Their target customers range from small business owners, to managers and CEOs of large organizations. eLuminous Technologies find that most of their clients work in industries like web development, Internet marketing, eCommerce, eBay and Amazon sellers, and other online businesses.

eLuminous Leadership Team Interview and Office Tour

This video gives you a behind-the-scenes look at eLuminous’ virtual assistant office setup, their leadership team, and even a little glimpse into their company culture.

VAA Exclusive: Mention Virtual Assistant Assistant for 20% off your first month of service!

I thought it was a cool way to share what it’s like over there, and to see something a little different from the super-polished stock-photo-laden marketing videos you typically see.

Services

eLuminous breaks down their services into four main categories, and have a separate department for each of the following:

1. Web Development and Project Management
2. Real Estate Assistants
3. E-Commerce Support (for Amazon FBA and other e-commerce sellers)
4. Internet Marketing

So depending on the client’s type of business or requirements, they can direct them to a department specializing in that area.

Their virtual assistant services cover all the day-to-day business tasks you would expect. As I always advise, you should provide a detailed list of the tasks you’re looking to outsource and check they have experience with each task before committing to a price plan.

Their web development team specialize in maintaining and building websites. They have a dedicated mobile app development team, which is a service not offered by many virtual assistant companies. Finally they have a SEO and SMM department, ideal for outsourcing your social media accounts.

Plans and Pricing

For their virtual assistant service, eLuminous Technologies charges a flat rate of $7 per/hr, and have six fixed packages to choose from.

Their entry-level package includes 20 hours of virtual assistant time, with their other packages offering 40, 80, 120 and 160 hours.

Based on my conversation with Harshal, it sounded like their preference was to work with clients on the 160 hour engagement. He also indicated the clients that see the best results are the ones that have clearly-defined goals and outcomes in mind.

VAA Exclusive: Mention Virtual Assistant Assistant for 20% off your first month of service!

eLuminous also have a WordPress and CMS support package, aimed at businesses wanting ongoing website support.

When paying for a package you are purchasing a number of hours per month. The hours will be used up as your tasks are completed, and you can keep an eye on the progress.

eLuminous Technologies Alternatives

When I asked eLuminous what sets them apart from their competitors, they cited their 15 day money back guarantee, quality of service and flexible payment options. Sandeep also told me they really try and take a consultative approach in learning about your business so they make suggestions and become a valuable partner.

The virtual assistant marketplace is a competitive and crowded one. If you’re looking at virtual assistant companies in India, My Tasker or VA Talks might be worth a look, though neither have the 15+ year track record of eLuminous.

That said, they offer similar pricing and it probably makes sense to reach out to at least a couple different companies to see who impresses you and who seems like a good fit for your requirements.

VA Talks is a professional virtual assistant provider in India with 24/7 support. The company was formed in 2015 by two veteran virtual assistants who decided to start their own firm.

Despite the inherent “new-ness” of the VA Talks company, the founding partners bring nearly a decade of business process outsourcing experience to the table and are growing a team to serve other entrepreneurs and small businesses around the world.

About VA Talks

The goal of VA Talks is to help other companies get their most important tasks done. The team is working from the secure office in Kolkata, India.

Like other virtual assistant companies, they want to earn your trust so you have confidence in the experience and quality of VAs they provide. The target market for these services are for busy individuals, entrepreneurs, small businesses or large corporations interested in freeing up some time or getting access to skilled help for their day-to-day needs.

VA Talks virtual assistants can perform nearly any type of task you might think of online. Whether you require bookkeeping services, administrative tasks, web development, design or search engine optimization, skilled VAs are available to help you.

In addition, clients tap the VA Talks team to help design mobile apps, run marketing efforts, create presentations and proposals, and to do research.

When I spoke with one of the founders, CEO Sanjay (Sam) Gupta — no, not that Sanjay Gupta — he explained that they recruit team members with a variety of skills, but that, “Some of our most in demand VAs are proficient in WordPress, Joomla, Magento, Drupal, and many other web development platforms. Our Web team is our main focus but we do have virtual assistants capable of helping nearly any type of company or individual.”

VA Talks Founder Interview

Plans and Pricing

But don’t bite off more hours than you need just for the sake of saving money; unused hours don’t rollover month-to-month.

If you need our services for under 10 hours a month, they have a Pay As You Use plan for on-demand support at just $15/hour.

All plans except the pay-as-you-go plan come with a 2-hour free trial to test out the service.

VA Talks Alternatives

When I asked Sam what sets his team apart, he explained, “It’s fairly easy to find a workforce of VAs that are willing to work. But VA Talks goes the extra mile to find staff that will deliver quality work.”

He went on to share that all of the VAs on the team “are our friends who are hand-selected for our clients to service their needs. We work to provide not only the best quality labor in our industry but also customer experiences that will have you consistently coming back for more.”

As far as alternative choices, as you know, you have many virtual assistant companies in India to choose from. Among the top-rated at the time of this writing are 24/7 Virtual Assistant and My Tasker.

Since launching this site, 24/7 has been one of the most popular companies around. The competitive rates and diverse skill-sets of the team are a major contributing factor, but the behind-the-scenes service is important too.

My main contact there has been very responsive to  customer questions and concerns, even working to create custom solutions or handling some of the workload himself until a more permanent set-up can be established. I think an important measure is the speed at which customer issues are resolved, and it’s been my experience that Thomas (my contact) and his team genuinely care about delivering a great service and doing whatever they can to make it right for their clients.

Is that a guarantee? No, but you can learn more about my personal trial with 24/7 in the video above or in the comments down below. I had the opportunity to test out their 30-hour plan for a month.

The rate of $900 for a full-time dedicated assistant is very competitive among other VA companies in India and in the Philippines, and the other packages are straightforward and priced well too.
