Online Work? Work from Home? Blogging? I NEED MONEY!
Question Posted Monday August 4 2008, 6:38 pm
Ok so I'm just about as broke as you can get and I'm sick of it. Now I've applied at quite a few places (some even multiple times) and I've had no luck. Soo I'm starting to get a little desperate. I'm aware that my lack of a license and job experience (I've had one prior job - a good one but nonetheless) limits my options, so I've been wondering if anyone knows any ACTUAL and GOOD online jobs? Like, any work from home opportunities that are legit and pay (doesn't have to pay much just some $$ would be nice) or any job opportunities in blogging. And on that note, what kind of experience must one have to apply for a job professionally blogging? I tried applying for one but go no response.

I review some survey sites to make money that have worked for me at [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) What you have to do is complete surveys and offers for companies that want the public's opinion. By doing this, you are able to earn money very easily for simply giving your opinion or trying out sample products. This is a great service that allows one to work from home, on their spare time, at their leisure, and still bring in a nice sum of money every month. People have made up to $1000 easily on this site by just working on it in their spare time. It is not going to replace a real job's salary, but it is a very nice bonus. There are also many features on these web site, such as contests and special surveys, from which you can redeem extra prizes that would be sent to you with your monthly cheque, such as iPods, Xbox 360s, PSPs, digital cameras, gift certificates, and much more.
"If the site doesn't get paid from me, then why would they have this service going?" - The sites don't get paid directly from you, but when you complete an offer or survey, they also get paid a small portion of what you earned yourself. For example, if you complete a survey about computers let's say, you would earn maybe $2 and the web site itself would recieve $0.50 from the company also for getting you to complete the survey. These surveys take little time at all, most taking up less than even 1 or 2 minutes of your time.
Fraud is also a big deal on the Internet these days, and this site recognizes that. That is why they ask for ONLY three bits of information: Your name, email address and your home address. Yup, that is all. No credit card information, no banking information, nothing like that. All they require is your name and address so that your cheque can be sent to your home every month. Your email address is only required to confirm that you have done the offers and surveys. Fortunately, no spam mail or junk mail is ever sent out by this site and your information is never shared with any other company.
Personally I have been a member of these websites, along with thousands of other satisfied users, for approximately 1.5 years now and have earned well over $8600 by working in my spare time. This web site has been great to me, also the members and administrator are very friendly, and are always there to help you with a question or problem you may be having. So far, I've listed only positives about this site, because I can't think of a single negative thing about it. Earn money in your spare time, at no cost to you...Easy as that! I give you my word that they pay.

Like reselling things or requiring you to buy a "starter kit" or something like that.
Quite honestly, if you're that desperate for a job I think you just need to search harder for a more conventional job. Fast food places will hire pretty much anyone and since they're typically located in busy areas that usually means that public transportation will also be able to get you there. (Like the bus or something) Also, if there are any restaurants near you, they'll usually hire whether you have experience or not and you can make pretty good cash off the tips.
