Hi,
I have been trying for a year to find a job to work from home but all I have found is scams.Is there anyone that can point me in the right direction. I have no money to invest in a home business and most of the typing jobs that I have found from home require mone to get their list.
Thanks

Have you tried customer service or phone work? There are work from home jobs out there that do not require a fee, and are legitimate....
You should never pay for a job, and if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.. Keep your chin up and keep looking. They are out there!!

I did get lucky that when I called a place that he needed some address labels set up and he paid me on time,but I need to be able to make more then I am. Cause the pay isn't all that great.

Awesome! See, you can find legit work!
Something else to keep in mind.. When you are working from home, you really need to have your eggs in more than one basket.. So, having more than one job to do from home is a plus.
Have you applied for any phone work? Also, I sold things on Ebay when I first started working from home. Have you tried that? Can you write? There is a huge need for web content lately and writing articles is a great way to make money from home as well.
Let me know if you need more ideas.. I am full of them ;)

Hi Nina,
Philip here, I just joined this forum. I'll try to make this as simple as possible for you. You expressed that you have no money to invest. Unfortunately, it takes money to make money whether its over the Internet or not. There are plenty companies advertising free work at home opportunities which primarily relates to marketing. You can even receive free websites and products to sell and get commissions. But you have to get customers. So you must spend money for advertising.
I believe the problem with most people is they tend to think of the Internet as providing a job. The same type of jobs that you and others have some familiarity. The Internet is full of opportunities more so than legit companies hiring home workers, right now. There are not enough of these companies available to serve millions of peopls worldwide who want data entry, typing and some other jobs. So stay away from them right now. I believe this will change in the next couple of years, since the Internet is rapidly changing as more real companies are taking an interest.
The Internet is full of marketing opportunities. Since this is probably something you are not interested in, then I'll narrow this down for you. This is what you can do.
Went I first started exploring the Internet I knew nothing of course. I never got scammed because I did an aweful lot of research first. If you are able to pay $49.97, then you should get Mintjobs. This is how I got started and learned a great deal from the Internet, and actually made money.
So let me tell you more . . .
First this is an one time fee. Mintjobs gives you a great resource of money-making opportunities to work from home. In other words, MultiStreams of income monthly. This is what you will learn and choose . . .
(All of this is FREE)
Paid surveys from real marketing research companies and other types of survey vendors, paid email--get paid to read advertits, mystery (secret) shoppers, home assembly workers, affiliate marketing--selling free products on Google and Yahoo, and much more. You learn how open free accounts where your money will be sent, free automated software that completes forms automatically, and much needed information will educate you about the Internet. Mintjobs is a great tool for newbies. Many doors will open up for you.
I certainly made money with Mintjobs but now I'm an affiliate marketer. I would not have known about marketing without Mintjobs I believe. There are millions of products to be sold over the Internet. And many of these product are free to sell. You also learn advertising and where to go to place free advertising.
So if you can somehow manage to order Mintjobs, you will make money the easy way but you must put some time into it.
I certainly hope this helps you. Here's Mintjobs link:
You probably will have to copy it then paste it to your URL bar at the very top of your screen.

Take care!

Sorry but I have tried mintjobs and it was a big joke. I could go and research the to do surveys and the such without paying for it. On top of that it isn't hard to research how to post for free. I'm sorry if I sound a little hateful, but when I get an email from them and the say quote what did you expect unqoute. That does not sit well with me when I get treated like that. Sorry to say I will not be trying mintjobs. I don't need to pay for a list of surveys that I can research for free. But thanks for the reply though I do know that you are trying to help. :)

Nina,
That is right, you should never pay anyone for a job. Nor should you ever pay for a list of jobs! :D That post looks like he is spamming and just trying to get free advertising out of it anyways.

01-17-2007, 07:30 PM
I agree. I can do the research for free and not pay anything at all. Just takes a little work and research. I got a part time job doing labels that is legit just by accident because I called about something else. It doesn't pay great but it is something. :)

That is awesome!
You know, I would rather research myself anyways, that way you really and truly know whether or not to be cautious going into something.

Hi Nina,
This is Philip once again. Sorry to hear what happened with Mintjobs. It worked for me and led me into affiliate marketing, which is where the real money is made. Don't get too discourage, if there is a will there is a way.
Have you considered affiliate marketing, selling free products on the Internet? There's something new that I found over the Internet recently. It's something for beginners to consider.
I've recently discovered this new software tool that automatically creates a super store to sell products on eBay. You have access to over 28,000 products to select and sale from one location. You simply follow a few steps and your super store will be automatically created with your affiliate code attached to each product. What this means is when a customer buys your product, eBay will pay you a commission.
The company that developed this software tool made everything easy. They cut out much of the work dealing with design, learning HTML, and copying/pasting affiliate links to products. Its fully automated and a professional looking store. You should take a look. You can do your own demo to see how you can create a super store. May be this is something you may want to think serious about in the near future. I'm going to send you to my blog. Have a look around. Its for newbies.
Posted in the right sidebar, you might want to get the ebook called "No Thanks Rich Jerk", written by a young mother now making $10,000 to $20,000 per month. She tells you how she did it and will guide you in the right direction. Its all about affiliate and niche marketing on the Internet today. This field is booming like crazy. The idea is to start learning now and don't wait until this field becomes too competitive. Once new home based workers figure this out worldwide, things will get toughter. By 2010, it was already forcasted what's going to happen over the Internet.

Take Care and Good Luck!

Hi Nina. Yes, there are work at home jobs out there. I have my own business at home, paid $14.50 for it! I did see that you said you do not have any money to start your own so what I wanted to tell you about is http://www.workathomeagent.com It does not cost anything to start up. You have to do some training and it is all on the computer. After the training is done and all of that, you will be receiving phone calls and taking orders over the phone. They pay buy a certain cents per minute you are on the phone with customers. I do it in my spare time as well. You can chose your own hours, make your own schedule, etc. If you have any questions you can give me a call at 281-748-0629. Hope I helped!

Hi Nina!
I agree with everyone try to stay poisitve! I try to live by, "Thinking positive gets you Positive results!"
I tired doing surveys when I first started out, doing all the free ones. I didn't make any money off of them...I got submitions into daily draws and such but nothing ever came of that.
I'm trying a new system but it costs a bit of money...I've only been at it for a 2 weeks but I havent made any real money....yet. I'm hoping it works out becasue we need some extra income at home and I don't want to get a job! I live in a small town and everthing pays min wage. By the time I pay for daycare and gas I'd be bring home $100 a week....it's not even worth it.
Hopefully you find something that is right for you! Try not to get discouraged...I know it can be hard but keep your chin up!

Too be honest with you, as a work at home mom I tried EVERYTHING out there that was free to start working and nothing made me bring in enough money to pay the bills. sure there was some things that gave me $100 a week or so but it was just way to time consuming. then my husband heard about a energy company that gives away free trips as well as pays big when you get people to sign up. All I'm going to say is... sometimes you have to spend money to MAKE money! and now I work only one EASY job rather then 10 easy ones and make 10times more money doing so.. Since I wont Advertise here about my business you can just click my SIG and if you have any questions then Email me! :D

Yes, now a days it is very much troublesome to find out real free home based jobs. Though google adsense is scam free jobs but right now it is hard to earn money easily. If you are interested, it is required to prepare original content and start blog and prepare the site with SEO rules. Otherwise, you will not get traffic, No earnings if you have no traffic of your website. Article marketing is also another process for getting traffic and then you can start also affiliate marketing and earn more money by selling affilaite products. To success in affiliate marketing, you should creating landing pages for profitable products and use the link in your signature column and target to US taffic and you can earn $100 per day by selling products.

Affiliate programs can be good and I have found a very good one that is free to join. I like it because you can work it off-line as well as on-line.
You could hold seminars at your local Chamber Of Commerce, at Internet Cafes, with groups of friends or with local Business Merchants in your area. It is only limited by your imagination.
This program is taught by major Colleges and Universities worldwide and you are paid a minimum of $75 up to $250 per sale. My first sale was $95!
I have been involved in a lot of different affiliate programs and I am so impressed with this business opportunity because it is so versatile and you are supplied all of the free tools like e-courses, videos, websites, banners, ads, flyers, brochures, etc.
And if you want to work off-line there are separate tools for that including a PowerPoint Presentation and Offline Action Guide all free!
It's been a long time since an affiliate program actually created excitement for me and this one definitely has because of it's possibilities. I have decided to work this program exclusively and nothing else!:)

There are so many opportunities out here. We all have to find a way to make ends meet. I hope you had an opportunity to look at Free online Cash System which you do with No Out Of Pocket Cost that could create you an Residual Income Monthly
Take a look and learn another way to make Free Money!

Have you tried looking for data entry jobs? I found mine with bestjobs. http://www.bestjobs.ph/international.htm. If you have a hobby like crafts maybe you can sell them on Ebay. You can also check out freelancing opportunities at odesk.com. Good luck! :)

Friend try affiliate marketing programs to earn money. You don't have to pay for joining affiliate programs,just you have to promote products.

If you want to earn without investment then you may try free paid survey, paid to surf programs, or you may promote other products as affiliate. My blog is all about free money making system.

I have 3 I'm looking at, the one I'm looking at first though is My Online Income System. I know you want something that's free, this one's under $50 though, not free. I did a lot of research before signing up for anything, and I think this one's definitely worth the money because you learn a whole lot, kind of like taking a college course but easier.

After may attempts of finding some smart and serious initiative, that would not be a scam and would possibly work, I came across this new initiative the other day, it's called "my power mall" and it seems to work and be truly profitable. I joined few days ago since is completely free, no investment or registration fee is required, you choose your own online mall and start making money easily in matter of few days or even hours...There is nothing to lose after all, if i were you i'd give it a try, it's fun and a realistic way of earning money on internet, certainly more realistic and fast than surveys or other very subtle form of scams! This is a wonderful initiative, if anything, once you have joined, they offer you technical support and lots of cool marketing ideas for your own mall (The website contains training manuals, free business card templates, banners etc. )
Here below you can find a brief description on what it is.
Hope this helps!

while i hate to see hidden referral links in sites, i do have to agree with the bryon1955. internet is not a place that is providing you a job. it's is like real life, you have to find a site and get work from it. ( just like you would search for a job in a real life.)
however saying that, i would like to really clarify that just like real life jobs, with every new invention or a work, you always start new types of work and jobs.
only the ones who can adapt to the situations can survive, rest are always at the bottom of social and economic standing.
