I have been recently laid off, just bought a house and really need to work. Problem is, I live in a town of about 2,000 people and jobs are really hard to get. Can I get my computer to help me bring in some income without any scams? By the way, I am a full charge Bookkeeper and Computer literate. Thanks ahead of time.

  1. long term steady income require some patience and dedication.. fast and easy money are mostly scams..

    I suggest you setup an online store, or start a blog and monetize it. Both these options are free to start.

    I wont spam with any links here, Check my profile for useful links if you are genuinely interested.


  2. I couldn't find a job that would pay enough to cover daycare for twins, and let me have any money leftover for bills. I started looking online for stuff I could do from home and found some great places.  I have made a list of places that I have used (only free ones), I know they're all legit because I don’t list them until I've been paid by them. I do have survey sites listed; only the ones that I know for sure work. The 2nd place I listed is totally different. You design and run your own jewelry web store. You don't buy inventory or anything; you make commission from the sales. Nothing to lose by looking, it’s free. You can see my list and details on these places at http://tinyurl.com/homeoffice  

  3. Most of them are scam.. they ask for upfront payment and guarantee that you'll cover it in days.. but then they disappear..

    elance and guru are good option you can try to explore others as well.

    List and links of some genuine surveys can be found here: http://genuine-surveys.blogspot.com/ and links for genuine data entry jobs can be found here: http://genuine-dataentry.blogspot.com/ also list of some more free writing jobs can be found here: http://freewritingjobs.blogspot.com/ they are all free to sign-up and seems legitimate so far to me.

    p.s. sign-up with a new email id, as you might receive a lot of junk mails no your email otherwise.

    most of them will send your money by paypal

  4. I can offer you a job that will make you up to about £500 a week.

    OK, I'm quite lazy and only spend about an hour each day on the work (posting adverts) but I make about £40 a day.

    There is a one off sign up fee of £12 (to cover training costs) but no more after that: I guarentee.

    email me for more info and if you decide to go for it I can offer you all the support you need

    rachel@pryces.net

  5. You can start online based outsourcing job.

  6. I tried over 15 opportunities in the course of 2 years so I have some great information for you plus a list of top 10 work at home scams!

    I am a mother of two little girls who are actually tugging on my arm as I write this so I will try to be brief. Many people are looking for work from home companies. All the scams definitely create a big problem but also, there is a problem of people misunderstanding the difference between work from home "jobs" and work from home opportunities. There really are not work from home “jobs”. To get that you have to start working for a company in their offices first, then they MAY allow you to take the job home.

    Most of the work from home opportunities that are legitimate offers are not an hourly pay type job. They are business opportunities that help you in starting your own business from your home. What you should do first is to decide if you are simply looking for an hourly rate type job or if you are looking for more of an opportunity for additional income such as what you would make in your own business being your own boss from home. Small home businesses have some small costs involved, less than $500 to start is reasonable and I would stay away from those wanting $1000-$5000. It doesn’t cost that much to start and run a home business so you shouldn’t pay it.

    If you are coming across places that say free then I would RUN don’t walk the other way! They never are. I tried them many a times and 3 weeks later I had to buy this and 6 weeks later that. After 6 months these “free businesses” had cost me over $800 on average.

    After trying 15 things I now work about 18-25 hours per week for a National Medical Healthcare Company. This is a nationally known and reputable home business which is what you need to make sure you are looking for. I have been with the company almost a year and a half now and I make over $4500 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work, I have seen people make anywhere from $500 to over $2500. And your income will increase each month because you get paid residual income as well.

    The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit, life insurance and a benefits package most of which you get from day one. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling, no home parties and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me. I absolutely love working with them and I can't believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. You have great team support and you get to know the other people on your team pretty well.

    I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce, and the National Association of Dental Plans and the owner of the company actually sits on the board of The Consumer Health Alliance to which we are also members. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” “Time Magazine” “American Medical Review” and even in the May 2008 issue of “Parents Magazine”. Even “60 Minutes” did a big special on this home based business.

    Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nationwide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, K-mart, Rite Aid, CVS, Wal-mart, Publix and more. These companies would never work with a company that was anything less than reputable.

    TOP 10 WORK AT HOME SCAMS:

    10. Craft Assembly

    9. Medical Billing

    8. Email/Rebate Processing

    7. "A List of Companies Looking for Home workers!"

    6. "Just Call This 1-900 Number For More Information..."

    5. Typing At Home / Data Entry

    4. "Turn Your Computer Into a Money-Making Machine!"

    3. Pyramid Schemes (this is NOT the same as Multi-Level Marketing MLM)

    2. Chain Letters/Emails ("Make Money Fast")

    1. Envelope Stuffing

    Please beware of these scams. There are some legit home businesses out there so be careful. Look for companies in business over 10 years. Look for companies with a needed product or service, something you would be proud to represent. Look for companies that have a national reputation and are members of the US Chamber of Commerce.

    As for those of you who say…..”I want to work from home but I don’t want to have to pay for anything”. Well, that’s great! But it will never happen. Let’s be honest, there is no such thing as a free lunch. If  it is a true honest home business you need to expect to pay. Mr. Walt Disney didn’t start the Disney empire “without paying for anything”. Neither did Mr. Sam Walton, owner of Wal-Mart.

    Good luck to you in your search. Also feel free to contac

  7. I will tell you that I work from home myself and you will not find any that don't involve enrolling.  I know this one is free right now so you could check it out and give it a shot!  Pretty cool.

    I wish you the best of luck in your search! I know that very few work at home businesses charge a fee either small or large most of the ones out there are legitimate.  I have done some at home business myself and found some good ones and some bad ones.  The one that is up there is totally leget though for sure though. I ahve done my research on this company and they are a pretty good company.  Good luck!  

  8. I also live in a small town of 4,000 people--more than you, but jobs are still hard to come by!

    I have been doing surveys on and off for awhile. I have made some money from them and have won a few sweepstakes ($1500 total) which was great! Here's the one's that I have been paid for:

    http://www.planetpanel.net/

    http://www.sendearnings.com/

    https://www.globalopinionpanels.com/

    http://inboxdollars.com/

    I have found the site listed below to be a bit more of a consistent money maker though. I did lots of research about it before deciding it was the right fit for me and I would encourage you to do the same. Unlike lots of the "work at home" scams, this one requires that you work every week to make money. Nothing comes for free and money is no exception!

    Good luck on finding something that fit's great for you!

  10. Hi,

    I think affliate marketing is not so easy, but if you i think you can try this following first.

    "Making Money Online is Easy Right? It Can Be if You Know What You're Doing"

    TheWealthyPages.com will teach you how to earn money online, and best of all, it's free. We've reviewed all of the top "making money" programs online and have created this site to help you determine which products and services will actually help you make money online!

    Lesson #1: How Does Someone Make Money Online?

    There are many ways to make money online, but the most common, and most lucrative way to make money online is to sell products for companies willing to share the profits with you. The process of marketing to people online is called "Internet Marketing" and it is a multi billion dollar industry. Hundreds of thousands of people, just like yourself, are making money online everyday by partnering with companies who pay commissions based on sales that you help generate.

    This sounds difficult but it's not because these companies have "Affiliate Programs" setup for their partners (Affiliates). You can partner with thousands of companies online and start selling their products in literally minutes. So how do you start selling a companies products as an Affiliate? Simple, all you need to do is send visitors to their websites. This sounds simple, and it is, but finding the right kind of traffic and enough of it is more difficult. Websites like WealthyAffiliate.com teach people techniques to drive traffic to Affiliate sites and earn HUGE dollars online. Making $500 a day online is quite normal and you can get started very quickly if you know the right techniques.

    Lesson #2: What If I have No Experience?

    The most common misconception about Internet Marketing is that only people with good computer knowledge and marketing skills can take part. This is NOT the case.

        * You DO NOT NEED a website

        * You DO NOT NEED your own product

        * You DO NOT NEED any previous experience (none)

    What you will need is a guide to help you learn how to get started. The top marketing website online is called the Wealthy Affiliate University, and for a few dollars a month you can learn from the pro's and work with thousands of other aspiring Internet Marketers.

    Lesson #3: Be careful who you choose to learn from

    Everyone has heard of being "Scammed" on the Internet, and although this is only somewhat true, many people have learned about making money online from companies who do not have good reputations in the Internet Marketing world.

    There are many companies out there that offer good techniques and strategies but with little support or coaching. A program like the Wealthy Affiliate University offers both great techniques and support. If you are just getting started with Internet Marketing, support is one of the first things that you need to look for when choosing a guide. Also, steer clear from anything that offers you "Overnight" success, or "Get Rich Quick" programs.

    There is no such thing as "Getting Rich Quick" on the Internet. It doesn't matter what you hear, you will never make money on the Internet overnight. Internet Marketing is a real business and it takes time to grow your business to a point where you are earning $500 / day. If you are dedicated to learning the correct techniques and are willing to put in the work, you WILL achieve your goals of making big money online.

  11. Regardless of where you live, as long as you have an internet connection at home, you can still be eligible of earning some decent residual income online with the Free Online Cash System.

    http://www.iwantfreecash.info

    It requires no form of deposits, but you will be required to "enroll" in my website, but all I mean is registration and that shouldn't intimidate you because I assure you there are no out of pocket costs to get started.

    Your computer literacy would help as well and there is also training and excellent support to help you get started.

    Feel free to drop me and e-mail or IM me if you are interested.
