Job Boards - Free Or Paid?


There are tons of online job boards out there. Some are free to use anytime you want and others you have to pay to access their database. When searching for a telecommuting position, it's sometimes hard to know whether you should stick with the free boards or go with a paid one.

Both types of job boards are beneficial. It's a matter of doing what's right for your situation. Let's talk about what each one can do for you and you can decide what fits your needs the best.

Free

There are plenty of the free online job boards for you to browse through. They have excellent search features for one who is looking for either an online position or an onsite job. They do take some time to go through and find what you want, though.

You can narrow your search options to the specific type of job you're looking for, like customer service or it can narrow it down to any type of job that can be done by telecommuting.

It's important to note that you will have to read through each job opportunity, that you're interested in, to make sure that it's a telecommuting position. If you put "telecommuting" in the search box, it will pick up on all job ads that contain that word. So, even the ads that say, "no telecommuting offered" will be in your search results.

The biggest drawback to these boards is that they don't weed through the jobs listed on their sites for scams. Even the most popular job boards contain quite a few scam jobs, so you really have to be careful when checking through the job ads.

Paid

There are a few different types of paid job boards available to you. There are ones that have monthly membership fees, annual membership fees and ones that you pay a one-time fee for life-time access.

These job boards are beneficial to those who don't have the time to search through the free boards or simply don't know how to search. The databases on these sites are updated regularly and they're oftentimes organized, so that you can easily find the type of position you're interested in applying for.

Paying for a membership to one of these kinds of boards, does not guarantee that all the positions listed on their site is scam-free. You will still have to do your research to make sure they're legit opportunities, but for the most part, these sites try their best not to let a scam job through.

Either option is fine; it's just a matter of what you have the time to do or whether you can afford the prices of the paid boards. Keep in mind, however, that the paid boards are simply a way for you to get access to some online jobs that may or may not be in the free boards.

They are not a guarantee that you will find a position right away just because you paid for a service. It will still take you time to find one, but it could simplify your online job search if you should choose to go the paid route.

Even if you decide to try a paid job board, you should also be checking the free boards as time allows, increasing your chances of finding that telecommuting position you've been hoping for.

Telecommute Job Boards


Working from home is a luxury most of us want but, not many can find. There certainly is no shortage of "working from home" opportunities but, not many "real jobs". Searching for legitimate companies with legitimate openings can be like trying to find a needle in the haystack. You can easily waste hours a day surfing the web which is where a telecommute job board might be of benefit.

There are real telecommute openings out there; it is just knowing where to find them that is the challenge. A few companies have now made this easier for the virtual job seeker with websites similar to a traditional board. They spend the time searching for legitimate telecommute openings and post them all in one place for you to view. Saving you both time and aggravation of locating the jobs yourself. Another benefit to these sites is the screening involved. Jobs posted are only those that appear to be "jobs" not business opportunities or any form of MLM. Of course many of these sites do charge membership fees (mostly monthly) but, some are also free.

One of the more "popular" sites is FlexJobs which touts the "As Seen on CNN" and monthly membership of $14.95. Virtual Vocations is also very similar with $6.99 weekly, $ 15.99 monthly, and $49.99 semi-annually subscriptions. They do provide some free job leads but, to view the majority of the openings you must subscribe. SavvyVirtualJobs is a virtual job marketplace with free services for job seekers and employers. Legitimate telecommute jobs listed are both sourced online and posted directly by employers. There is never a charge for job seekers. Employers may post jobs for free and charges only apply to "Featured" jobs and "Business Opportunities".

As with any job opening you apply to there is no guarantee you will land the job. Telecommute job boards will however save you time and let you break away from countless hours of trying to find the "needle in the haystack" online job.

Free Data Entry Openings Vs Paid Job Boards


Many people are looking for free data entry jobs on the Internet. When we say free data entry jobs we mean positions which can be applied for without the applicant having to fork out any cash. But are there any opportunities to be had online?

If you have spent any time at all searching the cyber highways and byways for these telecommuting jobs you may be feeling frustrated by now and probably asking yourself if the whole thing is just one big red herring. If this is you then read on.

The majority of companies offering data entry work which can be completed from the comfort of your own home are asking for a sign up fee. Many of them make rather outrageous claims such as promising that you will earn 5000 dollars per day! Obviously claims such as these are, more often than not, pie in the sky.

While you're searching the Internet looking for the free data entry opportunities you will, no doubt, come across these devious companies who want to charge you good money to access their databases. Don't get me wrong, some of these paid for job boards are actually very good and you can find real work there but don't expect an easy ride if you want to earn decent money. You will have to work hard, very hard if you want to replace your current income using these companies.

Many free data entry articles and 'work at home gurus' will advise you to never pay for a job. They will tell you that anybody who wants to charge you to apply for a job is a scammer. This is not strictly true and these self-proclaimed experts (who usually have an ulterior motive) have failed to see the big picture. Why?

Well, these companies have to make money too. They are not a charity, they are a business and they're operating in a free market economy. If they didn't charge a membership fee to access their databases they wouldn't exist. So don't believe the scaremongers when they authoritatively inform you that all these people are out to scam you. They couldn't be further from the truth.

So by all means search for, locate and investigate these opportunities but don't close your mind to the possibility that you may need to part with a little cash to find the best jobs. The scammers usually don't last very long and the companies which remain and have been trading for some years are obviously providing a legitimate service.

Read online forums, seek advice from industry insiders and those people who can actually prove they are making money with these opportunities. Remember as a general rule of thumb that for every free data entry opportunity you will find there are 10 more in the paid for databases out there.




Riley McBride is a professional writer and has been making a tidy living on the Internet for many years. He is available to hire for article writing and will create you high-quality content in a professional manner. He is currently sponsoring the following web site which has further information about free data entry opportunities online.

The Best Freelance Job Boards for Writers


How many times have you checked out a job board to that either it no longer exists or that there is one or two jobs listed. Out of the hundreds of job boards on the Web today, how do you find those containing projects that you are interested in and qualified for.

I have recently surveyed over 300 freelance web sites and these are the best boards for freelance writers. The benchmark that I used for judging the board was the number of legitimate projects (as opposed to “business opportunities” ) and requests for submission being posted every month. I have only included ones posting 30 projects or more a month

The very best

I picked Guru This huge all-inclusive board connects independent professionals (a.k.a. "gurus") with contract projects. If you are new to independent consulting, check out the Run Your Biz section, which includes a “Getting Started” column, where you can leave a question to be answered by experts. Lots of other useful information (e.g. tax and finance, legal, etc.) for contractors. Find a contracting job ("gig") searching by field (creative/media, finance and legal, etc.), keyword, and geography.. Recently, it acquired IT Moonlighter , another with lots of freelance jobs. Whatever, Guru is probably the largest freelance marketplace on the Web. Over 3,300 projects posted last month.

What makes Guru.com stand out from is the number and variety of projects listed and the easiness of accessing the job. Unlike the others, Guru sends daily email alerts of writing gigs that match your profile.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 207

Type of projects: Everything and anything, many articles, ghostwriting, editing, copyright, some onsite, some technical. Has the best all around listing of freelance writing gigs.

Other good freelance writing sites

AllFreelanceWork. Its sister site AllFreelance is my number one site for articles about freelancing and freelance resources.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 10

Type of projects: Technical and business writing

Contracted Work A freelance site that has grown in great leaps and bounds. You can do a search and find a great number of projects. There is a monthly fee in order to search for projects, but it might be worth checking out. I personally found that I was not finding enough leads for the type of writing I do to be worth the fee.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 50-74

Type of projects: Openings tends more to web content, copywriting, and sales and marketing

Elance. I was actively involved in bidding on this site for a year. However, I did not get my money’s worth. It is geared towards business and technical writing.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 130+

Type of projects: little bit of everything: articles, ghostwriting, e-books, web content, technical. Lots of editing and proofreading jobs too

Freelance Work Exchange Non-Auction freelance site. The Freelance Work Exchange has listings for writers, designers, consultants, programmers. Yes ... it does cost to join; however, there is $3.00 7-day trial memberships so you can test it to see if it will get you work! Highly recommended. Freelance Work Exchange is a solid, reliable freelance site, but in order to search jobs it will cost you a monthly fee.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 30-40

Type of projects: little bit of everything: calls for articles, ghostwriting, e-books, web content, technical. Geared more towards general writing markets, as opposed to corporate-style stuff.

Freelance Writing This is the ultimate job board for freelance writers. Contest, blogs, forums, resources. Everything.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 40

Type of projects: Calls for articles, copywriting, E-books, research papers, ghostwriting,

Independent Homeworkers Alliance -- touts itself as the "largest provider of legitimate home-based jobs on the Internet.” Offers a search engine for at-home jobs, as well as numerous resources. $29.95 a month Subscription

Number of writing projects posted every month: 70

Type of projects: calls for submissions of articles, scripts, e-books, some sales and marketing, not much technical writing.

Sologigs With over 20,000 projects for freelancers, Sologig has a lot to offer. You need to register to get access to all the projects, with the higher levels of membership securing you a higher profile in the exchange. Most of the freelance writing jobs were onsite technical/business writing.

Number of writing projects posted every month: Estimate 100+ projects posted every month. To see the exact number, you have to register. A Bronze membership with $78.75 prepaid for three months

Type of projects: geared heavily towards onsite technical writing gigs

Telecommuting Jobs -- where job seekers can view several hundred telecommuting/offsite jobs posted directly by employers, as well as thousands of jobs posted to other major job sites. Searching is free, but there is a small fee to post your resume. Telecommuting Jobs Telecommute jobs for Writers, Programmers, Artists, etc. Links to additional sites to continue the search for that which is so hard to find - a good paying, mid-term telecommute contract. Good deal for the $10/yr registration fee required.

Number of writing projects posted every month: 80

Type of projects: Wide variety of projects: article wanted, research papers, journalism, copywriting, not much technical

Workhome.com Welcome to Workhome.com a resource for work at home jobs for your small office or home business. We provide job posting for work at home jobs and advertising to work at home businesses. Posting on work home jobs is free and you may contact our work at home providers by visiting the profile page and clicking email professional

Number of writing projects posted every month: 20-30

Type of projects: Wide variety of projects: articles, web content, sales and marketing, technical

A word to the wise

Be selective about what types of projects that you bid for. There is a lot of competition out there, so do not waste your time with projects that you are not qualified for or do not interest you. If you are spending more than an hour a day responding to leads from the job boards, then you may need to redefine your niche. Don’t try to be all things to all people. In addition, remember that, in order to be a successful freelance writer, you should not be using the boards as your only way of finding projects. You should also be out there networking with other writer, setting up your own website, and researching writing opportunities in your own community. In the end, these strategies will net your more work than limiting yourself to working the job boards.
