Does it work - Day 2

Feb. 8, 2007

Two days into this project and I’ve narrowed down the field of possible (& legitimate) work-at-home jobs to the following:

http://www.online-data-entry-jobs.com/ - this site is the most professionally designed. Laura Kauth is a former business professional and her site avoids all the usual hype about making thousands of dollars a day. This site was consistently rated at the top of all the review sites.

http://www.my-data-team.com/ - again, not as big a hype-site as most but it does look a bit like their Webmaster made a fill in the blanks site.

http://www.webcolleagues.com/ - this one and my-data-team have a very similar look & text. I get the feeling from both of them (despite the many spelling & grammar mistakes) that they mean well while not telling you the whole story.

http://www.type-at-home.com/ - probably no worse than the rest but I just couldn’t get past the “aw shucks” & phony sounding story they start their site off with.

Those were the top 4 that offered money back guarantees, had programs designed with step-by-step instructions & were all backed by consumer rated reviews. Some also offer extras in the form of programs you probably don’t need, like TV on your PC, and programs you might really need, like teaching you how to type.

Something you really need to know is all these programs regularly sell for around $49.95 – when you go to their site for the first time you will most likely see a much higher price “slashed down” to the “sale” price. This is the same practice that most department stores & car dealerships use to convince the buying public to “buy now, while supplies last” or to make you think that you are getting a bargain that “won’t last long, so act now!” They may also ask you to fill out your contact information in order to send you a discount coupon that reduces the price down to, you guessed it, $49.95.
