Types of Typing Jobs

 Typing and data entry jobs are a broad category composed of freelance writing, survey taking, audio or voice transcription, virtual assistant and simple data entry to name a few of the most common.

Some jobs, like audio transcription or medical transcription, may require special training, software or equipment. Many of the survey taking and simple data entry jobs found online, while legitimate, require you to fill out forms, commit to trial offers of products, and to give out your email address and other personal information.

The majority of home typing jobs can be found through websites like www.workhotline.com that specialize in posting typing and data entry jobs l and many others.

The jobs carry no fee.   These jobs may be easy money, but the pay is still relative to the job being performed.

The same is true for audio and medical transcription. Higher paying home jobs also generate more competition and are more scarce, so be prepared for that as well. Home typing jobs do exist, but there seem to be many more scams than actual legitimate work-from-home opportunities . Knowing what kinds of typing and data entry jobs are available, where to find them and how to separate the scams from legitimate offers is key to making an income from typing.
