Legitimate Online Work from Home Jobs

There are so many work from home scams that searching for legitimate work from home jobs with no scam to make money online is an exhausting experience. People have started thinking that all online work from home jobs are scams and there is no REAL and Legitimate Work from Home Job available online.


The term "online job" can have several meanings - There are jobs that are done online, online business opportunities, and businesses that provide online services. But what are the differences between the three: -

A job that is done online, whether as an employee of a legitimate company or as a consultant providing an online service, is a job where an individual has negotiated with their employer, or predetermined the fact to their client, to allow the opportunity to do the assigned work online at home.

These are truly legitimate work at home jobs. As an employee, the employer takes care of any payroll issues, including employment taxes. As a consultant, you are responsible for self employment tax issues. 

Many companies who seek individuals to fulfill online jobs do not consider individuals as employees, but rather consultants.

An online business opportunity allows an individual to feel as though they own a business. However, the individual more than likely has paid a start-up, or sign-up fee. Online business opportunities are mostly in the direct sales arena, and - in my opinion - are not worth the money invested. Most of these "opportunities" consist of a company sponsored website where an individual promotes products or services. The hidden truth: many of these "opportunities" expect you to recruit other people into the "opportunity". I don't like online business opportunities; most of them are scams - no real opportunity comes out of the deal, except to those accepting the fees. People are easily lured into the lies of earning a high income.
A business that provides online services is an actual business started by an individual. The business is something in which the individual has a great deal of interest and truly enjoys the work. The individual provides the service online to clients.
Here, I am going to concentrate on legitimate online jobs and list actual companies who hire people to fulfill their work at home jobs. However, it is my finding that call center, customer service, and general bookkeeping online jobs are the most stable.
