17 Types of Online Work at Home Jobs that Really Pay Off

8. Website tester

Many websites lose money due to a poor user interface, lousy navigation, unclear copy or bad design. Therefore, companies search for people to test and review their site before launching it.

In most cases, you’ll need to speak your thoughts out loud and record your screen actions as you browse the website. Usually, tests take between 5-25 minutes to complete, and the pay is an average of $10 per test.

Here’s a list of platforms that unite website owners and testers and can offer good online work to do on a side.

Finding online work on freelancer platforms

If you aren’t ready to venture into your own online business, offering your services on freelancer platforms is a good place to start online work. Some of the most popular freelancer platforms include Fiverr, Upwork, and Freelancer.[7]

Generally, Upwork gathers more professional freelancers and has a broader earning potential than Fiverr. But, even if the majority of Fiverr users make under $100 a month,[8] 30% manage to earn between $100 and $499, and above. And why shouldn’t you be among the top earners?

Besides joining these platforms, there are other ways to find your first customers. For example, via your friends and professional contacts; by sharing your portfolio on your social media; or by reaching out to companies directly (e.g., offering a copywriting service to a website with poor copy).

But first, define your skill and make it your profession.
