Rent-A-Coder has been the leading bidding website for coding projects since immediately after its founding. Ian Ippolito is the creator of Rent-A-Coder and the CEO of a company called Exhedra Solutions, Inc. He claims the notion came to him in a fit of brilliance, after he had to turn down a number of coding projects. His very innovative idea was to create a website whereby programmers could bid on programming projects all over the world. These projects are posted by companies or individuals in need of help with programming projects. This idea would eventually become the single largest website of its kind. Of course, Rent-A-Coder isn’t confined to just supplying labor in the market of programming, they also facilitate the connection of companies with writings, translators, and graphic artists too. Rent-A-Coder and Ian Ippolito understand that an expanding company needs easy access to skilled labor quickly.

The auction house of the coding industry is how Rent-A-Coder is viewed these days. Thousands of programmers are able, and willing, to display their credentials through Rent-A-Coder, communicate with thousands of possible employers, and bid on many projects at once. This enables coders to maximize their options by bidding on several projects and allows employers to attract many times more bids than they are otherwise capable of. The future of the coding industry seems to be trending towards this hypercompetitive direction that Rent-A-Coder is paving the way for.
