I am working at two freelancing sites and I am making $3000+ per month. I am doing data entry and copywriting jobs at these freelance sites.

It is 100% free to join these sites; you will never pay anything from your pocket.

Below are few commonly seen jobs in the data entry category:

Simple Typing Jobs:

One of the most commonly seen job in data entry category is simple typing jobs. This is the easiest job of all. You simply have to type some content from a given source into word documents.

The given source can be: Scanned pages, Pictures containing text, PDF files etc. No experience is required to do this work.

The faster you can type, the more money you can make with these jobs.

Collecting Data From The Internet [Copy Paste Jobs]:

People often need to find some information on the internet. Sometimes, people need to collect this information in a file and that may require hours of searching. So people just hire service providers, at freelance site, who can do this work for them.

Example of a data collecting or copy paste job:

A buyer may need to collect information about beauty parlors in UK. This information may include: Website URL, Phone Number, Email Address etc.

The buyer can need this information if he/she is building a web directory of Beauty Parlors in UK.

So your job will be to search for the required information on the internet. This process can take hours to complete.

You will have to copy paste content from the internet into any readable file.

Online Form Filling Jobs

There are many online form filling jobs in the data entry category. The work is extremely easy to do but a lot of time is consumed.

Online form filling jobs require us to simply visit a site where we will have to fill up some forms.

Example of such work:

There are many online shopping sites where owners have to use online forms to add new items in their shopping cart. Instead of doing this work themselves, they simply hire people online to do this work.

Image Editing Jobs

This is also a very easy job to do. You just need to have some simple software that can be used to do small editing to images. For this job, you will be given a set of images where you will have to make small edits.

Example of such work:

A buyer may have a list of 2000 images and that he wants to have all the images cut in half. This work can take lot of time to complete. So the buyer simply hires someone from a freelance site to do this image editing job.

There are many other types of data entry jobs that are available at freelance sites.

If you don’t have the knowledge about online freelance sites, then I will try to explain it in few paragraphs.

There are people all around the world who need to hire data entry operators. They are willing to hire anyone who can do data entry work for them, but they face many problems.

For example, someone who needs an employee (I will call him BUYER in this article), hires a data entry operator [OFFLINE] but after gaining some experience in this field, the employee quit and joins some other company which offers more pay.

Companies all around the world face this problem. Employees quit jobs after gaining some experience.

Employees are always in search of a better paying job. Nowadays, buyers use freelancing sites to give their data entry work to online jobs seekers.

In this way, buyers pay less money for the work plus they don’t have to worry about the employee quitting the job as the buyer only hire employees on a contract base. On the other hand, people who are looking for data entry at home, can earn money on the internet via working at freelance sites.

To hire a data entry operator at freelance site, buyers simply open a project. As soon as the project is opened, data entry job seekers from all over the world, start to apply for the job. People agree to work for low rates as there are multiple service providers [people who seek online jobs] who are applying for the same project.

Register at above mentioned sites. After registration, look for data entry projects. If you find any interesting project, which you think you can do, then place a bid on that project.

Does all of this information makes any sense?

Well, for new comers, it’s difficult to understand how all this works. Therefore, I have created a free online jobs guide which you can read to learn lot of thing.
