Are you really making money on the internet?

I like typing too. I did a lot of work on fiverr typing, but people started not following the rules. The work was supposed to be asked if I could do their work and if I OK'ed the work they was supposed to give it to me. They just gave me work and overwhelmed me, there was no justice then some posted bad stuff about me because they never asked if I had the time to do the work anyway. Fiverr seemed to me a good place to do some typing work but they could not control the people requesting the work. Another place for typing is Mturk, they do transcription work too. You do what you want to do without any hassle from the requests.

what is mturk and what is their website address and email address please? John

Make Money by working on HITs HITs - Human Intelligence Tasks - are individual tasks that you work on. This site belongs to Amazon. People request work to be done they call them HITs. At first it can be very discouraging when you sign on because you only see HITs worth one cent or two cents. But you can sort them by most available hits or Hits with most most paying money. When the people or companies come to Amazon web site to request work done for them, they have to pay the fee for the amount of work that they requested and Amazon charge their fee too and get it off the top and it's not very much. It is guaranteed that you will get paid, that is if you do the HIT the correct way. It is not hard to do the HIT the correct way if you follow directions. There are so many HITS on this site I just type in their search window for the type of hits I want. I mainly do the writing and transcription HITs. You can work when you want and how you want. You don't even have to have a computer. You can go to the library or a computer cafe. To get paid there are two options, when you reach $10.00 you could either have The Amazon gift card or have the money sent to your bank account. I use the prepaid Netspend Debit Card and get paid the next day. The bank payments take up to 5 days. So far I have made $442.00 doing this part time. It can be a full time job if you want it to be. There is no getting people to join under you or having to get referrals to make cash. It is just your work and how much you want to work. This is the best freelancer work site I have had, where you don't have to compete against other people. The biggest job I done on there is $25.00 for some transcription work on one hit. Just type in your browser mturk.com and you will get to the web page. Good Luck

Over 60% of my work (at the moment about 90%) comes from regular clients, not sites. That said, I picked them all up from sites: My main, best, longest client has been with me for over two years. That one started on oDesk and turned into an awesome freelance client. The pay's a bit low but he always has work and has turned into a real friend as well as an employer. He's actually looking for a second, inventive writer at the moment (I can write to order for ever but I'm no good at inventing subjects) but I can't find anyone who knows enough about UK property/investment in my network of writing friends. My other regular is a US guy who I did some editing for on an Elance job. He comes back to me whenever he has stuff written or rewritten by non-native English speakers. I go through and tidy it up, make it sound American. The semi-regulars are an online gambling software company in Eastern Europe for press releases and an estate agent in the UK who I'm doing some ebooks for at the moment. The former came from Elance, the latter from Constant Content. I've also had a few client contacts in the past from my blog - one opted out (I was too expensive) but the other had me edit a (now-published) book for her. The real keys on the bidding sites are to choose sensibly from the job descriptions and over-deliver on the first jobs: that way they may come back for more, even if it's months later. That's how I've landed all my regulars (except the one from CC - that was totally unexpected and unsolicited).

Hi Spike, Glad to know that your freelance. In my area i applied for some but they never come back for writing or editing or proof reading. Could u share some genuine sites please. If we are not paid we feel upset and we don't do the follow ups.

As for not being paid, almost EVERY site has a means of claiming the pay. Dispute it, argue it, get your money. You EARNED it. If you went to work for a day and the boss didn't pay you, you'd drag him into court... do the same for the non-paying freelance employers, too. I recently had to chase a payment for two months. About $150! The guy kept promising to send it but (I think) he was asking his staff to do it and they never did. In the end, he got fed up with me asking and did the payment himself. We're still on excellent terms because I was always polite, but firm. I EARNED that money.

Yeah, that is the way most people start out, by working online part time for extra cash.

that would be a better choice.

Txgrl21, I heard of ChaCha and heard of people making great cash there. I think I will check them out and try the transcribing guide.

waa, i admire you so great, because i have not make my first fortune. maybe for I am a newcomer and have little experience on this task. I really need some confidence on it, which is my only support. however, I have learned a lot except money. and i am glad to hear that you are a ChaCha guide which i like very much. i want to talk something on ChaCha with you. hope we will be friends and chatting much.

Yeah $100 usd is a good start when making money online. but I just wonder how much work is done to make $100 usd. Some places you can only earn just a little bit at a time I mean a little bit too.

I like to do a lot of transcription work. I had found this site where you transcribe videos, you just pick out a video and you transcribe it, you get paid $0.50 a video. you had to give credit to where you found the video. It was great. Well the site played out.

Yes I do use them to promote my pictures, Actually my blog is very interesting that is why people who view it can't help to bookmark my blog and they keep coming back. That is one thing I learn from blogging create and eye catchy blogs to gain more visitors.

I like surveys too, but I only like the ones that really pay cash and not just points.

That is a good suggestion to people that is able to work off line at other jobs. But for handicap people and people that is disable working online at home would be their full job. I have talked to some people that can make pretty good money online but they never explain how they do it.

Well for beginners it is indeed not the way to make a living but for those who have been in this business for them this is their job and their source of living. Because if were just getting started in making money online it is definitely true you would not earn well just like the others but if you focused and find the strategy to increase your earnings with no limit you would say "YES" you can make a living with online jobs.
