If you’ve been looking on the internet for a work from home job, then I am sure you have noticed the slew of data entry work from home opportunities. Are they a scam? Or the real deal? Truth is, the majority of them is just one big scam.
What they are truly offering you is not a job. It is an opportunity to advertise with AdWords, which is free to join, but costs money to advertise on Adwords.
The “data entry from home” scams became more and more prevalent until Google find had enough with it and banned all data entry related advertisements on their network!
Now there are real, legitimate data entry jobs, you just need to know where to look. Truth be told, they don’t pay out $500 a day, like many of the old advertisements claimed, but they do provide you an opportunity to make a realistic amount of money by working from home.
In most cases, data entry jobs will require you to take a typing test, or at least provide your typing speed in your applications. If you do not know what your typing speed is, check out Free Typing Test to find this information.
Below is a list of resources you can use to find some real work from home data entry jobs. Although I’ve done my best to make sure this list remains up to date, I cannot keep up with all the websites here. Please use your best judgment when applying for any online job, and remember that you should never have to pay to apply for a job.
