All you have to do is search the words home work jobs in your favorite search engine to realize how hard it is to find them. What you end up finding are websites that say avoid scams, earn $200 a day, earn $50-$75 an hour, and so on.

So what does it all mean? Where are all the work at home jobs?

2 websites I have come across that are legitimate are:

1. Tjobs.com

2. Wahm.com/jobs.html

I would venture to say that 90% of the work at home job websites are just websites trying to sell you information. What happens is people in desperate situations will break down and spend their last $50 to buy a book that shows them how to do data entry at home, or type at home.

What you end up with is a book that sends you on a wild goose chase producing very little results that you can actually use to work at home.

Realistically there are all kinds of home work jobs that you can do. Here’s a short list: website design, ghost writer, graphic design, customer service, sales, software design, telemarketing, and so on. It’s not that there are not jobs you can do from home. It is just that finding the employers is difficult.

If you possess specific skills, you are better off to put together a resume and start e-mailing it to every company within 30 miles of your front door. Then get on the phone and start calling the ones that appeal to you.

It is becoming more commonplace for companies to ask their employees to work at home. Many times this is on a commission basis. You get to stay at home and work, the companies pay you for the work that you do, and it is a win-win situation.

The real savings to many businesses are that they no longer have to pay for your benefits like vacation days, retirement plan, and so on. Your real benefit is you do not have to commute back and forth to work everyday.

One other home work job you should not discount is starting your own home business combining the Internet with affiliate marketing and blogging. This is a great way for you to control your own time and start your own business.

Although you are not guaranteed any specific income at first, you can develop this into the most desirable and profitable work you will ever do at home.

In summary, do not pay any for a list of employers looking to hirer workers. Contact businesses in your area by picking up the phone and calling them. Or better yet, start your own home business, combining blogging and affiliate marketing online to create more money than you have ever made in your life.
