Re: How do I hire a Sharepoint consultant?

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

We need to use an external search engine, not the internal one. The built-in one isn't adequate to the task.

And no, no one has posted yet -- just you.

So I am sure you will get dozens of consultants to respond (if I were

I would send you my information), but why are you trying to use a web
service to crawl
content, maybe it is not clear to me what you are tying to do. If it
is just to get the crawl
of sharepoint sites going so the search features will work, there is
no need to access any
web services, just some (typically) straight forward configuration
steps.

Read one of the installation documents on the microsoft site on
setting up search,
there should be plenty of help, it is pretty straight forward in most
cases. (Please note
the use of the words typically and most cases).

We need to crawl the content on our Sharepoint server. We're struggling
with the webservices APIs. It looks like the PortalCrawl web service is
what we want, but it's totally undocumented (so far as I know). I'm
getting ready to give up and hire an outside consultant for a short-term
gig to get this done.

Where do I find a person who can solve this specific problem?

If you're the guy, please post a link here. Obviously my email address
above is non-working, but I'll try to contact folks who look right for
the job. We're located in Chicago, though I suppose this could be done
offsite.
