You've probably received e-mails telling how you can make scads of money by typing a few minutes per day. You probably deleted them as fast as they popped up on your screen. But are these e-mails on the level$%: To find out, I looked at several home typing sites. They all seemed to use the same or very similar sales letter; I assumed from that fact that the service would be similar from each site. I put down my card, and subscribed to one service recommended by several work-at-home sites. Here's what I found out.
The typing offer I paid for was available as a members-only site. I logged on, and read the material. In a nutshell, the opportunity was to look for affiliate programs to promote, write AdSense ads, and use AdWords to get the word out to buyers, who would then buy the product, and fill your bank account with cash. The offer also suggested submitting ads to FFA, classified ad sites, PPC engines or using solo ezine ads to drive traffic to the affiliate sites.
So far, that rated as a scam in my book. I already knew the concepts they told about. You wouldn't make the scads of money they told you about on their website. In fact, it may even cost you to advertise with Adwords. It would definitely cost you in time spent posting ads.

However, I looked at the material a second time, and found some good points. One was a list of survey sites that would pay you for taking surveys; another list was made up of sites that would pay you for reading e-mails. A third list was for mystery shopping jobs. You sign up for free, and the companies would contact you. I signed up for several survey sites, but so far, only one company has contacted me regularly. I was contacted by one mystery shopping site, and completed a job for them.
You won't make lots of money here, either, because the offers are few. The website did say that the money would be made if you signed up with maybe 40 or 50 sites; then you can pick and choose which offers you want to pursue. I am currently signing up for sites a few at a time.
Finally, I found a gem: a list of legitimate companies that offer data entry jobs to be done by telecommuting. These companies do medical transcription or transcribing from tapes, for instance. If you want to work for an established company, this is the list for you.
This is what I thought the offer would be about: a list of companies that would use telecommuters. This was the only redeeming point about this particular home typing offer.
If you have more time than money, you can search the Internet, and come up with the companies that this offer listed. However, if you want to get started fast, buy the package, and cut out the research time.
Was this a scam or a legitimate opportunity$%: It is a legitimate opportunity if you realize that you are buying someone's research, and that you have to apply time and effort to make it pay off. It would be considered a scam if you are looking for some opportunity to make lots of money with little effort. So, it is up to you.
