Question

Are there any legitimate data entry work from home jobs?

Answer 1

No there isnt. Ive been making money online for about 5 years now and I type 90 wpm, so if there was, I would know about it. If you want to make money online, you have to do it yourself. Nobody is going to pay you to work for them unless its affiliate marketing...meaning, you sign up for an affiliate program (which is free) and then promote other peoples products. For example, google the phrase "yahoo affiliate" and you will see yahoos affiliate program, or google the phrase "amazon affiliate" and you will find amazons affiliate program. They will pay you for referring people to their services/products. Thats the closest thing to an employer that you will find online.

I've been doing some work with www.elance.com the past week, all the work is home based, data entry, transcription etc. The only thing is you're competing against people from countries where the hourly rate of pay is a lot lower, so not sure if it would be worth it for you.

Also have a look at the jobs listed here, most are applicable to us,canada,europe, its quite good, thats where I found the elance link.

Its been updated today to include some Craft type jobs which can be done from home, mainly re-distribution, but it possible to make good money from it if you work hard.

So many online jobs are out there. In fact, to do any online job, you need not want to invest anything. Make sure, you dont pay anything to get jobs online. It is just that need to pick the one that suits you the best. I hope this helps you and I believe you will find the online job that you love the most. Thanks

Answer 4

Would you be interested in writing?

You could setup a blog or website, this is completely free. Once you have added some good content, you can start to earn money from advertising. I know you wont make a huge income from this, but it would get you started working from home.

Pick a topic which you are very interested in, and write a piece on that everyday.

I've given step by step instructions on how to create a website for free, and then add adverts to it so you can start generating income.

Any questions please leave a comment on this blog.

I've also found some useful information on these blogs, it helps you to earn small amounts of money from data entry, surveys, receiving telephone calls, reading adverts in emails and online selling.
