I was just wondering if anyone here has a real online like data entry. Most sites I come across are scams but I'd like to find out about ones that are legitimate. In all my searching I haven't found a thing. I'm looking for a way that doesn't involve blogging or paid to click or anything like that. I just want to know if there is an actually pay per hour type job out there.

If what you are actually asking is manual online assignment based jobs. Then you can check odesk.com out if you want.
If you like to bid for projects on a very competitively battled environment for work like copywriting, programming, scripting then you can give www.getafreelancer.com a try.
I hope the above information may be of some assistance to you. Cheers.

I have an online job now. I got it from craiglist, maybe you can try that one. I have sent about 10 applications and 9 did not respond. I got hired by the last one and it was a really good monday to friday online job. Odesk is alright but you have to bid for a job, I didn't find it very useful for me as there were many others ahead of you who tend to be hired because of their reputation. I don't know if it will work for you, though. Maybe you should try it.

I'll try craiglist out. I don't think I'll get a bid accepted because I don't have a ton of experience. I'm just a really fast typer.

Almost all of the data entry type of programs are just scams pretending to be legitimate. Usually they are asking for membership fees (ranging from $20 - $50) even before you are given informations on the program. And once you decide not to pursue and ask for refunds, that is where the problem is -- the admin could not be contacted anymore.
Yes, you can search many sites on the internet...where you can apply for jobs. But I understand this is only for people who have some expertise.
If you are in USA or Canada, I am inviting you to be part of my current program called the Free Online Cash System. Just go to my profile for my website.

hi there. my friend too, once was looking for a data entry job. but i wonder why most of them require payments before you do the work. i really think that method is a scam. why would they require payment in the first place..
