ACTUAL EXAMPLES OF OUTSOURCED WORK

VIRTUAL ASSISTANT: Adrianne Yamaki, a 32-year-old management consultant in New York, travels constantly and logs 80-hour work weeks. To eke out more minutes for herself, she routinely farms out the administrative chores of her life - making travel arrangements, hair appointments, restaurant reservations and buying show tickets - to a personal-assistant service, in India.

ONLINE TUTOR: Kenneth Tham, a high school sophomore in Arcadia, California, strives to improve his grades and scores on standardized tests. Most afternoons, he is tutored remotely by an instructor speaking to him through a voice-over-Internet headset while Tham sits at his personal computer going over lessons on the screen. The tutor is in India.

Nothing wrong with it. Don't you think so?

COMMENTS PAGE

It can get a bit lonely in here. :D

GET PAID TO DRIVE

While browsing through an online forum, I stumbled upon a question about GET PAID TO DRIVE schemes that are being advertised.

Get paid to drive works in the following manner:
  1. A vehicle registers its regular route to an advertising company.
  2. The advertising company matches the route with a prospective advertiser.
  3. Once the appropriate route and vehicle is matched with the advertisers' requirements, the vehicle is then beautifully wrapped with advertisements.
  4. Whenever the wrapped vehicle is on the road, people sees it and the advertisement starts to work.
In some cases, people without drivers are provided with vehicles for such purposes. Here are some companies and listings of firms that provide such opportunities:
  1. Autocar Wraps
  2. Free Car Company
  3. Free Car Index
  4. The Free car
  5. For Free cars
  6. Ad Smart
  7. Ads on Wheels
  8. Companies that pay you to drive
  9. AutoBoards (UK)
  10. Ad Wraps

I hope to have been of help.

HOME BASED OPPORTUNITY: HOME CALL CENTER

Found this ad supposedly coming from from an Australian company: www.iprimus.com.au

The company is advertising a need for home based call center agents whose main call destination will be Australia.

Try out this page and try mailing a resume. In my opinion, for as long as you are not being asked to pay any fee (registration, membership, etc.) and there's nothing illegal/immoral in the things that they are asking you to do, it's worth a try.

The salary being advertised is PhP80,000 ++ per month.

For those who have tried/will try this opportunity, please give us a feedback through email: bpo .asia @ gmail . com

Good luck!

FREELANCE WRITING: Academia Research

We've all been thought how to write essays, term papers, thesis, etc.

Those who's been out of the academe for quite sometime will most probably have forgotten much about writing styles. However, don't let that stop you from logging in to :

http://academia-research.com/

and

earn as much as $20 per page of written reports.

Besides, you can always use the internet as a ready reference for a lot of things (like the different writing styles).

The site serves as a market place for people wanting to outsource their term papers, thesis, company research, etc.

I've read about people from the Philippines and other Asian countries who make money through the site. Visit the page and find out for yourself.

LATEST HOME BASED JOB AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES: TRANSCRIPTION (MEDICAL AND NON MEDICAL)

For those interested in transcribing audio dictations, here are some companies looking for transcribers/transcriptionists.

  1. Ace Transcription
  2. JHTS Transcription
  3. TypeTypeType
  4. Transcriptionhouse

These employers are located from different points in the world and it's really amazing how the internet can bridge the gap between continents. Companies in the US and UK are now outsourcing jobs to Asian countries through the net without any downtime.

UPDATE ONGOING

Updating this site is not as easy as I thought it would be. The intention is to make siate navigation easier for those looking for work and business opportunities.

I hope to be able to finish it within the day.

Ciao!

WEEKEND UPDATES

I will not be going to the office tomorrow and will instead be updating this blog. I realized that my posts are not properly tagged and I will be starting from there. Hopefully, finding money making opportunities from this site will be a lot easier from there.

Let's all make money online through Home based businesses and outsourced work while maintaining our own blogs that will create value for us through blog advertisements, paid posts (another form of advertisement), affiliate income, etc..

Cheers!

BACK TO BASICS: PAGE RANK EXPLAINED (2nd part)

This is in continuation of a previous article.

Since Google is the dominant search engine at this point, the competition is for websites to land on top of Google’s results. A website selling DVD’s would want to be on top whenever somebody types the following keywords: “Movies, DVD, online DVD store, and related words”. Imagine if your online store would land on top of searches for every item that you have on sale? Billions… nope, trillions of sales, even!

So the trillion dollar question is:

“How does Google determine who lands on top of its searches?“

In my amateurish mind, I strongly believe that PageRank determines your visibility on Google’s search engine. As the devil directly puts it: ”PageRank continues to play a central role in many of our web search tools.”

How will your site/blog get a high pagerank? How does Google determine a blog’s pagerank?


In am not very comfortable, but feels the need, mentioning that I am running a PR-7, two PR-6’s, one PR-4 and this blog. I initially have no idea how I got those page ranks but after reading lots of articles, Googles explanation and my own scrutiny of my sites, I now have a good idea.

Let us start... I have read from an SEO consultant's blog (forgot his name and site) that backlinks form the backbone of Google’s page rank system. Visiting Google's website in search of an explanation, this is what I found.

GOOGLE SAYS: In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B.

MY INTERPRETATION: it means that whenever a page links at your blog, Google counts it as one vote.

GOOGLE SAYS: it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves "important" weigh more heavily and help to make other pages "important."

MY INTERPRETATION: If the page that linked to your site is “important”, there is an additional point for your site. The page that contains the explanation did not define “important” but in my belief, “important” means a page that has a lot of incoming links. Another way of putting it is, “A page is important” if a lot of pages links to it. So, if a page that has a lot of incoming links (e.g. www.johnchow.com) links to you, Google will probably count it as an additional point.

My example is my PR-4 site. I initially had no idea how it got that rank but when I checked my incoming links, I noticed that my blog is linked in the sidebar of a PR-5 blog. Therefore, my blog is linked in every page of that PR-5 blog. To make things more beautiful, that blog has so many pages.

This is probably the reason why a lot of sites buy incoming links, especially from High PR sites. Buying links speeds up the process of getting promoted to a higher PR. I used to want incoming links from other blogs in the hope of getting visitors of that blog to visit my site. Now, I know better.

I have read in some reputable blogs that Google frowns upon links to pornographic and violent sites. I have also read that Google is starting to penalize, sites that sell links. Such are supposed to be counted as deductions and will adversely affect a site’s PageRank.

There are many other factors that determine pageranks. As Google explained: “we have dozens of engineers working to improve every aspect of Google on a daily basis.”

But in my experience, what I wrote above were the main reasons why my sites got their page rankings.

BACK TO BUSINESS

It's been a hectic weekend that stretched until last early today.

Anyway, I'm back and working on a few helpful posts.

catch you later!

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY: THE SPEED PITCH BOOTH


In sports like soccer, golf, baseball, tennis, squash, hockey and squash, players are most certainly interested to know how fast their balls are. They always want to be able to track their progress by measuring their ball speeds.

Furthermore, the ordinary individuals always get a kick out of being able to register a good score in a sports meter.

BLOGGING TIPS FROM THE MCT NEWS SERVICE

Before I continue with my amateurish explanation of the Google page rank, here is a simple article about blogging which I find useful.

Enjoy!

BACK TO BASICS: PAGE RANK EXPLAINED

A blog has a greater potential to make money if it has a high pagerank (Check your blogs' pagerank here). Get paid to blog programs (like payperpost) and sites that pay bloggers for advertisements and links (textlinkads), determine the rate by which a blog will be paid based largely on Google Pagerank.

WHAT IS A PAGERANK?

In my last several months of blogging and Internet surfing experience, I have read quite a lot about Google Page Ranks from a number of "Experts". Some try to be highfalutin about it and there are those who showcases their technical expertise by using too many jargons. the end result is a confused reader.

Well, in an attempt to be helpful to professional bloggers wannabe (like moi'), let me try to present the simplest explanation that I've found. And where did I find it?

.... from GOOGLE!!!!!


Here's what they have to say:

PAGE RANK EXPLAINED:

PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page's value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at considerably more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; for example, it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves "important" weigh more heavily and help to make other pages "important." Using these and other factors, Google provides its views on pages' relative importance.

Of course, important pages mean nothing to you if they don't match your query. So, Google combines PageRank with sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search. Google goes far beyond the number of times a term appears on a page and examines dozens of aspects of the page's content (and the content of the pages linking to it) to determine if it's a good match for your query.


I cannot claim expertise in this topic but I have a couple of high page rank blogs (PR 6's and 7's) and a number of low ranking sites to have an idea how its done. I will try to explain what I know in tomorrow's article. For the meantime, go and write that nice article in your blog for today.

... soooo tired!

Source of Good Home Based Jobs: OdESK

Among the many sites that advertise work, oDesk is my favorite for its administrators exert a lot of effort to make sure that the contractor (us) gets paid. oDesk will require the contractor to download a toolbar that he will sign on to whenever he is doing work for a client.

The toolbar records the activity and attest that the contractor is billing the client only the appropriate number of hours of work rendered for them. At the end of the day, the bill is computed.

The vital assurance that the contractor gets paid is done by requiring the client to deposit the contract amount in an escrow. Upon successful completion of the task, the funds are released to the contractors account.

Apply to oDesk by clicking the banner (below)

A WORD OF CAUTION

I have written about Craigslist, oDesk, CAD Ground and a few others. Honestly, it took a while before I started featuring sites that advertise work opportunities because I had to be cautious. I had to avoid getting you, dear readers duped by unscrupulous individuals who will contract you to work for them and leave you hanging after you've delivered.

MY ADVICE:

Always be careful. There are a lot of legitimate job opportunities in the net but there are also a handful of fake ones. My advise if for you to ask for a reasonable amount of down payment and partial payments as your work progresses. That way, the client will not be able to run away. By the way, make sure that all details are agreed upon before you start working. Get a detailed agreement drafted and documented by both parties before you get down and start doing the assigned task.

BEWARE:

What prompted me to write about this is a collection of articles featured in buzzfeed. They have recently posted several websites that wrote about fake advertisements posted at Craigslist.

HERE ARE SAMPLES:

Membership, job search and actual contracting of jobs is FREE! The company contracting the job pays the oDesk's commission.

MORE ABOUT BLOGGING ADS

What I thought were sponsored articles not credited to this site turned out to be a false alarm. All my blogging ads article are credited to my name, after all. In my last post, I mentioned that there are some posts that I cannot find under my account. Well, it may because I am not yet that familiar with their system or there was a temporary glitch in their software.

I was already planning to write a query to the site administrators regarding my fears but when I checked my account, all opportunities that I took have been approved and awaiting payment.

Gut!!!!

To all of you, there are plenty of work at home/home based and make money online opportunities in this site but while applying for all of those jobs, why not put up a blog and chronicle your quest? In no time, you can start making real money out of it. That's what I did.

My friends, it is well worth it.

LATEST WORK AT HOME/HOME BASED OPPORTUNITY: BLOGGING ADS

This is the latest addition to my source of online income. Blogging Ads work by getting blogs to publish company advertisements. They prepare a few blog posts and let the bloggers determine which ones they like to publish. If the bloggers want to write the ads themselves, Blogging Ads finds nothing wrong with it.

Check out the sponsored posts last week in this blog and notice that the tags say "Blogging Ads". At this point, I have been paid for some of the posts that I did for them but there are paid posts that I cannot find in my account. I will be checking the site within this week and should there be tweaks that needs to be done in order to successfully get paid, I will also be writing about it.

At this point, I have very little reason to get sad and a few dollars more in my wallet to keep me cheerful.

By the way, I have just started monetizing this blog a few weeks ago and most of my online income comes from my other blogs. Check out my old posts and there are enough online job opportunities that can make your life financially better from the comforts of your home.

I think, I should also refer to this blog as a listing of home based, work at home business opportunities or a make money online site. What do you think?

By the way, they pay weekly via Paypal.
