However, the world of freelancing is not as wonderful as it might seem at first sight, and it's not always that easy to make big money in it. As in any profession, in freelancing you need to find yourself, to understand which of the types of earnings you will be interested in, and which will become a daily yoke. In order to not make a mistake in your own choice, and also to know in advance about all the pluses of the minuses of various earnings through the Internet, it is worth considering the remote types of work in more detail.
Questioning or participation in Internet surveys. Unfortunately, the most highly paid kind of remote earnings, but still very simple and safe. Of course, you should not even try to master this kind of work on the same sites where there is a paid registration, as often such sites are either quickly closed or they have too small sources of financing, and here are free platforms like the Questionnaires that really work with large well-known brands. The main disadvantage of the questionnaire is the receipt of a small number of invitations to participate in surveys.
Reviews of goods and services. Recently, more and more popular not only among students and housewives, but also in the most diverse categories of people. The secret of this kind of work is simple - the money is accrued to the authors not for the text written for the site, but for the number of its views. Thus, this type of earnings is passive to some extent, it is necessary to replenish "information stocks" on the site once a month, in order for the account to be "alive" and to be able to receive cash. The positive quality of this kind of earnings is not only not limited in the time of writing articles, but also in the amount of earnings.
Sale of staging and art photos. It is impossible to say unequivocally that this kind of earnings is available only for professionals. True, the quality of photos that will be offered on photostocks and photobanks should still meet certain requirements, so using a conventional soap box, even a digital one, will not get it. It will have to be pre-and thoroughly spent on the acquisition of a good camera and special equipment, as well as to learn how to work with editors, and after that to realize their pictures. Actually, it is in the preliminary spending and long-term prospects of large earnings that the main disadvantage of this type of remote work is hidden.
Execution of test works. Excellent ability to train your mind, fingers and earnings. And if you are lucky with the customer or an intermediary firm, you can replace the usual disreputable work, such, partly creative. However, the most important of its underwater stones is not the cleanliness of employers. Some not only do not pay extra money for the performer, but they also hide from full payment. Well, while the work is remote, moreover, it is not official, it is virtually impossible to find a council for scammers and they use someone else's intellectual labor with impunity.
Content management and content sites. This is not a simple job - it's a "tidbit" in the world of freelancing. In fact, the work of the content manager is the transfer of information from one site to another. Typically, this work is not difficult even for beginners, because the options of the sites they administer are always the same - "add", "delete", "insert," the truth, with which will need to work always different - texts, pictures, photos or ready-made cards of goods. The work is paid generously, although it is not available to all comers. More often than not, sites already have high-quality content managers, or they recruit such people by acquaintance.
Translations of texts from foreign languages. Understanding people by a friend of a friend, as well as texts written in an unfamiliar language, has always been a sought-after and rare talent. Now, in the presence of various dictionaries, special programs and phrasebooks, this process is available to a much larger number of people, but the demand for good translators has not been reduced to this day. The translator's work has always been valued highly, although it is not possible to get the coveted order in time, and this, perhaps, is its only big minus.
Moderation of sites and forums . Meet the proposals of the owners of electronic resources are not often and mostly on specialized sites for freelancing. However, getting into the ranks of moderators is not so easy, as well as having time to submit an application for consideration to the employer, because the work is not only extremely beneficial, but also well paid, although not always quiet, due to the constant contact with various people.
Writing articles and texts. Authorship. The most widespread, popular and well-paid kind of work. It's pointless to tell about it in detail, since almost every second user of the Internet now knows what reray and copywriting are, and where you can sell your articles and take orders for their execution. Much more interesting is the writing of copyright works, which are valued in the market of printed products is more expensive. But selling them is much more difficult, hence their main disadvantage is the inability to find a buyer for their masterpiece.
Decoding of audio recordings. This kind of work seems to be exotic, but it will require the employee not only to have a free access to the global network, create an e-mail box, but also a lot of free time, as well as excellent hearing and ability to correctly disclose the information. Usually this kind of work is offered by practical practitioners, as well as students who always have a dictaphone, but there is absolutely no time or desire to disassemble their own recordings. Plus, this work has one - a good payment, but the disadvantages are much larger, starting from dishonest customers who simply can not pay for the work, and ending with the impossibility of decoding the record.
