I am now a stay at home mother of two younger children aged ten and eight. I became unable to work about three years ago when I became sick and could no longer keep my job. I then decided that since the internet world is becoming so big that maybe I should try to see if I could find something that I could do at home on the internet that could bring me in a little bit of money. As I got looking around I realized it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be...there were and are a lot of people out there that were and are looking to do the same thing that I was and I also realized that there are a lot of these sites that are fake scams that could really get you in trouble so I started being a lot more cautious with what I was looking into.
I have been doing work from home now for about a year and am now happy with the sites I am a member of and the extra money I am able to bring in.
I decided to start this blog because I know with everything that is going on out there are quite a bunch of people that are looking just like I was for a bit more extra money and could use a little bit of path on reaching the point that I am at and could make a bit of extra money to help get back on their feet...If you are ready to give it a try and start to make money online through freelance jobs then be sure to read on. I have included links to help you find the correct sites, just copy and paste the links into your browser.

Remember the Rules
Rule #1: Never pay to apply for a job or to show "you're serious".
Do you need to pay for a job? No.
There's a major difference between paying for a job (Not OK) and paying to access a legitimate database of job listings (OK). listed throughout the site.
Rule #2 Be cautious about calling unfamiliar area codes
Some international pay-per-call area codes look like legitimate U.S. area codes and employment scammers will use that to get you to call a number that you unwittingly get charged for.
Before you return a phone call from an employer with an unfamiliar area code, you might check it against this list of area codes...you can do this by checking your telephone directory or calling the operator.
Rule #3 Never allow a company to deposit a check into your account to "test or process the check".
In this scam, generally the scammer will tell you to deposit the check, keep a portion for your services, and then wire the rest back.
You'll soon discover they sent you a fake check, the check will bounce, and you'll be stuck responsible for the full amount, including the money you sent back to the scammer.
NEVER give a company your personal checking account information or social security number until you're comfortable with them.
