Internet Jobs

If you are on this website, then chances are that you are looking for internet jobs, I am sorry to tell you that there are not many options available for you. I’m trying to get at is the fact that there are really no internet jobs available. If you are somebody that is hoping to find an internet job, well then I am sorry, but they just do not pay as much as a real job. The main problem is that most internet jobs can be outsourced overseas for a fraction of the price, as a result, nobody wants to hire an American (or anybody from a country with a high average wage)

That being said, the purpose of this article is to cover some of the most popular internet jobs that are available.

Graphic/Web Design

Given the nature of the internet, one can expect there to be thousands of people that are looking for graphic designers for website banners, headers and pictures. Essentially, if you can think of it, then there are graphic designers out there that can create them for you.

There is also the need for website designers, as you can imagine, people that have websites or wish to expand their current website will need designers in order to do this. For this reason, you could get a job as a web designer.

With both of these jobs there is one huge draw back and that is skill. The average person does not have the skill set require to be a graphic designer or a web designer, which means that these jobs will not be appropriate for you.

So what are the options available for somebody that has no technical skills?

Writing

You will be surprised at the number of people that want to hire a writer, there are numerous places were you can find work as a writer online. These include elance,odesk and freelancer.com (the one that I recommend the most is elance). That being said, people will often ask for you to write website content articles, such as this article. The idea is that people search the internet for articles, the website owner may not have enough time to write the articles themselves, so they out source it.

You can expect to get paid around $5-10 per 500 word article, so there really is not a great deal of money in it. However, you can make a little bit of extra cash working as an article writer.

Surveys

There are a large number of companies on the internet that offer paid surveys and for completing these surveys, they offer money. Usually on a few cents up to a dollar. Essentially, you complete the survey and get paid. It is really that simple, the bad thing about it is that you will not make that much money. In effective, surveys only pay out a small amount of cash and as a result, you would have to fill out hundreds to make any really money.

So they are only a good option if you are bored or have nothing better to do.
