Common Work at Home Jobs Pay Structures


Work at home jobs vary in pay, depending on who you work for and the type of work that you do. The important thing to remember is that unlike running a business, you will get paid by someone else to work for them. This is key if you need money in the short term and cannot afford to wait until your home business grows to the point where it can sustain you and your family. Here are some payment options you can expect as you search for home jobs.

Per Task

Some companies pay virtual workers for each task they complete. These are typically freelance jobs and not telecommute jobs. The main advantage for getting paid this way is the frequency. Most jobs will pay you two or more times each week. The main disadvantage is that many companies pay a low wage, as low as 50 cents per task. Some examples of the kinds of tasks you can expect include:

• Edit 100 word articles

• Research contact information for company managers

• Write blog posts

• Evaluate search engine results based on keywords

Getting paid this way is not for everyone. You may have to meet weekly quotas or produce a large volume in order to make a living. That can become tedious, boring and lead to burnout if it doesn't fit your personality. On the other hand, you may enjoy working on many small tasks, making this type of pay a great fit.

Per Project

Work at home jobs also pay on a per project basis. It's a step up from getting paid per task because the length of the tasks tends to be much longer. A project may take days or weeks to complete, and you will be paid some or all of it up front. Some examples of the kinds of projects you can expect are:

• Set up WordPress blogs

• Develop email marketing campaigns to promote a webinar

• Create YouTube videos

One benefit of this type of arrangement is that you can complete a project and move on, which is great if you find that you don't like the company or the work. The disadvantage is that projects may dry up, and you'll find yourself looking for jobs again. It can feel as if you're running a business.

Hourly Wage

You can also land telecommute jobs and work at home jobs that pay based on an hourly rate. These are often long term and you agree to work as an independent contractor in many cases. You'll be responsible for paying your own taxes, but you're guaranteed a certain amount of work each week. You can also find virtual employment where the company pays you an hourly wage as an employee. The company will take care of withholding taxes, as well some offer health insurance and other benefits. A common hourly wage for an entry level work at home job is $10 per hour.

When you're first starting out, you may need to take on a variety of work at home jobs that offer different wage structures. Once you gain experience and your resume is more marketable, you will have more options.

Common Myths About Telecommuting


"You can make a full time living right away."

False. While it is possible to make full-time money eventually telecommuting, this usually won't happen overnight. It is sometimes possible to transfer your "in-house" job to a telecommuting position, but it takes a lot of flexibility from both parties and many employers will want to try it on a part-time basis, with part of your time still spent in-office.

Quite often, it takes working for more than one company to make enough money. After time, and you prove to them you are reliable enough for full-time work, you may be able to work exclusively for one company, instead of as a freelance worker, or as a part-time employee.

"There's nothing but scams out there."

False. There are plenty of legitimate jobs, but it takes time, research and persistence to find them. There are many reputable job search sites, where employers and employees can make connections. The simplest way to avoid a scam is remember the best advice - never pay for a job. There are sites out there that promise to get you the high paying jobs, but you have to get a membership with them first.

Most of the time the jobs that they can find, you can find, if you take the time. There are a few sites that help facilitate freelance jobs, and take a percentage of the fee after the work is done. They hold the money in escrow while the work is being completed, protecting both parties.

"Working at home is easy."

False. Telecommuting is just as difficult as working a job outside the home, if not harder. There are new challenges. You have to balance work and family, around school, activities, and sick kids. Sometimes you need to learn a new job without someone right there to show you how. You have to be flexible, organized and self-motivating. Setting up a separate office area in the house is often a good idea, as it helps cut back on distractions (as well as being a tax deduction).

"Getting a data entry job will be easy."

False. I know most moms want this kind of a job, but it is very hard to get a data entry job. They are hard to find and get and the money isn't always the best either. There is a great deal of competition for these jobs, especially with more people wanting to work from home. While not impossible, you need to be able to stand out from the crowd when applying for the jobs.

"Working on the phone is impossible with little kids."

False. It can be a challenge, but many moms make it work. Many telecommuting jobs, such as a phone customer service operator, have a variety of hours to choose from. If you can set up your schedule for times that the children are either sleeping, at a regular play date, or when your spouse can keep them in another room, it can work nicely.
