First of all, I must warn you that I do NOT
recommend that you search alone for data entry jobs from home. There are at least 10
scams for every single legitimate data entry job, so you can easily end up burning
yourself.
Most Trusted Online Jobs |
Not to mention that finding real data entry
jobs is extremely hard: the "market" is ultra-saturated since millions of
people (especially from countries like India) try to get these jobs
as fast as possible. Consequently, the available spots are extremely rare, and
the payment is even lower.
And even if a company does admit that
they’re genuinely looking for new personnel to hire for data entry jobs,
usually this means that they’ll put you on a waiting list with hundreds of
other people. This, of course, means that your chances of ever landing a real
data entry job from home are dismal at best.
Finally, I’d like to warn you about one
last thing: even if do manage to land
a real, legitimate, full-time or only part-time data entry job, I’d seriously
reconsider accepting it. Truth be told, there could be FAR MORE PRODUCTIVE
usages of your time, too.
Data entry jobs are so under-paid that
working one is not only not going to get help you make a decent living online,
it’s probably not even going to be enough to live off. Chances are your payment
won’t be as much as even minimum wage.
What’s an alternative solution to data entry jobs from home?
In my opinion, you could
start a freelancing career, or if you’re shooting even higher, start your
own business from home.
Both can be done relatively cheaply and
simply, and your return on investment will be higher in both cases than
working a low-paying data entry job from home.
What’s more, Business Online Guidance has
lots of free information and guides on starting both a freelancing career and
an e-business, so if I managed to convince you to leave data entry jobs to the
heck and pursue one of these much more rewarding models.
With that said, of course, now I’d like to
show you the 5 best data entry jobs from home that I found on the net...

AxionData
As its name suggests AxionData is a
full-blown data entry services company. It offers lots of data entry jobs from
home to many workers, HOWEVER, as of this writing (March 2013) they don’t have
any new open positions.
However, if you can wait then I suggest you
check out their application page over here: http://www.axiondata.com/employment.htm
If a new job opportunity appears, you’ll be
among the first few who get it.
5.
Scribie (Transcription Job from Home)
I left Scribie as the last one not because
it’s the worst option of all, but because it’s not really a data entry job opportunity.
It’s rather an online video
transcription company that’s looking for freelancer transcribers to work at a
$10/hour rate (you can receive your payment via PayPal every month).
It’s a completely legitimate and quite
famous company, so I think once you get accepted as a freelancer, you’ll always
have plenty of job opportunities to do here. Also, $10/hour is considered a
very good wage in the work-from-home and data entry industry, so if you’re
interested in this kind of work you can sign up here.
That’s it. In my experience (and based on
HOURS of extensive, tiresome research) these are the top 5 data entry job
opportunities from home.
