Its has been 2 years since I started my Internet home business http://www.data-entry-work.net. Like most of new home business seekers I started out looking for a Data Entry Job online, and like most of them I ended up losing $50 on some scam site that gave me information that was available for free if I looked hard enough. The $50 may not seem to be much money, but the experience I gained from it was worth it– You know the old saying “If anything seems too good to be true, it isn't”, well it's true!.

Today the internet is full of Data Entry Scams – everywhere you look you will find an add saying “Make $500 - $1000 a day from your home working just a few minutes a day”. Experienced people will see that this is a Scam, but to online newbies like me 2 years ago it looked like a great opportunity to earn some quick money on the side. I am not saying that all these programs do not work as sometimes they do work. Here is a brief description of how they work.

What they do is they will take a one time fee from you to give a tutorial to you explaining how to post similar ads like those you responded to online. The catch is you sell on their behalf and may make money – or you may not! And also it’s quick money and not a long term security.

So now, answering the question – If there are still legitimate online data entry jobs out there – I would say yes there are! But you will have to know the right place to look for it. The best place to begin are free lance opportunities. There are places like Elance and Contracted Work which posts the requirement of people who require data entry operators on contract basis and there is always a legitimate Data Entry Job available there! Start from such places and once you get some recognition requests just come pouring in. Who knows you may also start your own successful data entry company some day!!! All you have to do is just hang in there.

My website data-entry-work.net has both the pay $49 quick start program that has all the links to these freelance websites, along with links to real companies that are offering jobs to home workers in states all over the country and the world. Additionally, I have free web stuff for the newbies who want to get started for little to no money at all. Come by and take a look for yourself. I am always available to help you get started full time or part time.
