Legitimate online jobs?

Hello,

I've recently been really wanting an online job, particularly data entry - but it is a known fact that most of them (I've heard 70-80%) are scams. If any of you know of any legitimate online data entry jobs, or any online jobs for that matter - I'd greatly appreciate any input. Thank you so much.

Yes, please share...

A job which is entry level, pays money, and doesn't even require leaving one's house? I find a hard time believing that any employer would ever have any difficulty filling such a position, if such a position were to ever exist, which is dubious at best.

You could apply data entry jobs at freelancing websites such as odesk and freelancer. I am sure you could find jobs there that will suit your interest. Yes, there are many scam sites but I can definitely assure you that odesk and freelancer are different. i had been working and earning there also. Additionally, I had found a useful article for you: Onlineearningplaces dot blogspot dot com.

Haha, you are a pretty obvious scammer.

I heard amazon has something like this, google search amazon mechanical turk.

Start a blog, write about subjects that interest you, and advertise for products on your blog. < The best way to make money online.

Technical fields (DBAs, developers, VMware, SharePoint) are capable of doing a lot of remote work.

Also, HR/headhunting has moved to a mostly online/working from home presence.

Don't expect something too good to be true. Most of the legitimate work from home kind of jobs require education, experience, skill, and effort.

Most jobs don't pay much, but it's a legitimate site run by Amazon. If you can plough through tedious tasks, you can legitimately earn money online. But the pay is probably only good if you live in the 3rd world, or have specialty skills that someone needs.
