Transcription is a very popular work at home job, but not many know what exactly it involves and how to become a transcriber.

How to work from home as a Transcriptionist,

What is Transcription and tell us about how you become a Transcriptionist?

Transcription is the process of turning audio and video files into text documents. There’s a myth that people who don’t really understand what transcription is continue to float around the internet — that anyone can be a transcriptionist and all you need to know is how to type. That’s simply not true. (more…)

Today, I have the most interesting interview with Holly Johnson on how to become a freelance writer.

She is a freelance writer who earns $200,000/ year writing online. How awesome is that!!

Let’s find out all the details about how to become a freelance writer,

Please tell us about yourself and how you started as a freelance writer.

I picked up freelance writing as a side hustle in around 2012. I had always been passionate about writing, but starting our blog helped me discover the vast opportunity for writers on the web. I started writing part-time only because I still had a traditional, 9-5 job. After writing online for a year, however, I chose to quit my job to write full-time. The rest is history.

What are the biggest challenges writers face when starting their career and what tips do you have for them? (more…)

Probably, freelance writing jobs are the most lucrative side hustle right now.

Why do I say that?

With so many websites coming up, there is a constant demand for content creation.

This is where freelance writers come in. Freelance writers can utilize their skill to write for blogs, magazines, online publications, etc.

They can also be hired by some big websites or bloggers to be a staff writer for their websites. That can become a steady stream of income.

There are many places where you can look for good paying freelance writing jobs like Problogger.net, Contena, BloggingPro.com .

One thing you would have to be sure when you are a newbie is, your grammar and English have to be good when applying for the writing gigs, this being the most important requirement.

I am not a professional writer, but something that helps me to write is Grammarly. It does an excellent job of error proof (well, almost). It can be a huge help if you are just starting out as a freelance writer. Though it might not do a proofreading job like a real person, it does pretty for an app.

Today, I have a very special and unique interview about less known work-at-home career.

Scoping.

Not many know that this is a very profitable and flexible work-at-home option. And, Internet Scoping School has one of the most reputed courses to become a Scopist.

I have Connie Chestnutt on my blog today who is a graduate of Internet Scoping School and is a very successful Scopist.

Let’s know about Scoping in her words,

What is Scoping? Can you describe in detail about the job?

A Scopist edits transcripts of official proceedings created by court reporters. Court reporters attend proceedings such as court, hearings, and depositions and transcribe the spoken word to written text, and a Scopist makes sure all the correct words and punctuation are there.

Most Scopists are trained to read steno (court reporter machine shorthand). Scoping can be done from the court reporter’s notes and transcript on its own, or they may be asked to spot check or listen to the full audio.  (more…)

Of all the work at home jobs, the most searched for jobs and popular one is Transcription.

It is also the most flexible job. Many of my readers and friends have requested for a list of companies which are in general transcription.

General transcription is most easiest and comparatively open to larger workers than medical or legal transcription. This type of transcription does not need much of expertise as opposed to legal or medical transcription. There are many companies in general transcription hiring globally. The pay varies with experience.

Though most of the transcription companies hire U.S residents, there are some which recruit worldwide.

After conducting some research, I am listing all the general transcription companies hiring worldwide with or without experience. (more…)
