Online Data Entry & Transcription Jobs Directory

Data Entry jobs are arguably some of the most controversial jobs we’ve reviewed thus far. It’s safe to say that nearly all of them are scams, but here is a compiled list of legitimate jobs. Be warned: it’s short.

Now tracking 18 legitimate data entry and transcription companies.

Data Entry Background Information

No two words make me cringe more than ‘data entry.’ When I hear the words data entry, I instantly think scam. That is because there are a lot of data entry jobs that are mislabeled in order to deceive you of money. This is nothing new. In fact, we blog about it on a weekly basis. However. Amidst the muck and grime lay a few legitimate companies offering online data entry jobs.

Now, before you think you’ve struck gold with this post, realize you haven’t. These jobs are highly competitive. More often than not, you’ll be put on a waiting list for 6-12 months just to be told you don’t meet the job requirements. Even if you do get hired, you’ll be working for minimal wage, if not less. Listen to me, data entry jobs ARE NOT going to make you rich. This may sound harsh, but it is the truth.

If you’re still interested in doing data entry work, the following list would be a good place to start. I’ve included transcription jobs in the list as well.

Thanks for the information about Data Entry Portal. I was about to get scammed.

However, can you let me know if really there is a genuine work at home website/ideas that we people in Africa would benefit from. It seems most of the genuine websites and ideas are for those who live either in USA or Canada and not Africa.

Keep up the good work.

[...] Data Entry Work Data entry positions are incredibly rare. Even if you do happen to land a data entry job, the pay will be so little it will be worthless. Combine that with the incalculable number of data entry scams out there, and you have quite possibly the worst thing to ever happen to working at home. Still interested? You can’t say I didn’t warn you. View 12 available data entry positions. [...]

For those considering the “Working Solutions” company, they basically work with phone sales. They said there are some positions available for non-phone/typing jobs, but the majority of their work is done through phone sales.

Also, please note… If you have an XP operating system, then you’re fine. If you have Visa, as I have, then their software won’t work with your OS. Below, taken from their site:

Additionally, our client systems are not yet Windows Vista compatible, so agents will need to have access to a computer with Windows XP, or be willing to install XP on any computer currently running Vista.

This is not a good thing since the Microsoft site has already said that come April of next year it will no longer send out Security Updates for XP operating systems. I’ve personally checked with several computer experts who have said that installing Vista on a XP system will fry it. The driver’s for each OS are different. This will only leave most people with two options: purchase a Vista tower or wait for the new operating system, Windows 7, to come out. That’s expected in early 2009, though I suggest waiting at least six months for Microsoft to “get out the bugs” first. At least wait for the first SP1 to become available for download.

It seems that “Working Solutions” will need to update their software programs for their clients, or they may be running into a security mess within the next seven months or so.

Just FYI for anyone looking into “Working Solutions.” Otherwise, it looked very reputable.

Hi, I’m just if a website called, “Makemoneywithsurveys.net” is a scam. I would say so! You are suppose to make $10 to $20 per survey, however you have to pay them $68 to sign up for their list of potential companies. Their is a coupon for 1/2 off of the original price which makes it $34 to sign up. Could you check this place out and let me know your opinion?
Thank you

Hi! I am looking for online jobs that I can do from my home by spending 5-8 hours per day. Unfortunately every site is promising lot of money that can be earned but with an advance registration fee. I am not sure if I pay them and in return I will get what they are promising. Is there any directory which gives me a direct contact with the companies offering jobs.

It’s not real. Nobody anywhere makes $50-60 per hour for data entry. And it’s spam. And it’s full of errors.

03.08.09

hello I live in mauritius tiny island in the indian ocean. Just browsing the internet about data entry job. I would just like to know if superprofits.biz and homeprofits.biz are scams? And if they are why are their website still operating freely and the usa government is doing nothing . thanks

05.30.09

Why do you have a link (Axion) to a work from home company that says on the site they are not hiring, they do not advertize (sic), and if you saw an ad for them it is not authorized? Whazzz up, fellas?

06.15.09

Hi! I’ve been looking at this site for quite awhile now, and it seems some what legit. Unfortunately every site is promising lot of money that can be earned but with an advance registration fee as well. Does anywon know about this site at all (My-data-team.com)
If so please, respond back to me and let me know if this site is true or not?

Thank you!

I read your comment about these jobs paying minimum wage or less and I’m wondering how are people working for them at those rates?

I have real clerical and customer service call center skills and am not going to work for that. My lowest pay in California doing data entry for a Pharmaceutical company was $11.00 and that was years ago. lol.

Are there no online jobs that pay the standard market rate?

I’m only looking online because I live in a rural area right now.

08.21.09

So there is a website entry on this website for a 6 figure income under the 12hour work income, is tis one legit or is it a scam!! please advise i would loive to know.

08.24.09

Still no response, mmmmmm, makes me wonder if this site is legit

08.24.09

Hi Sarah: I can’t speak for anyone else, but I didn’t answer your question because it didn’t make any sense. The ads on this site are automatically generated by Google and sometimes some junk sneaks through. A program’s appearance here does not mean we endorse it. You have to use the same BS detectors when checking them out as you would use on sites that are known scams.

03.10.10

what’s up with this site? it says you get paid to take surveys and you get paid on a monthly billing cycle? it says registering is free at cashcrate.com? possible scam?

07.19.10

Hello, I was checking this website and got interested in the ‘work from home jobs’ being offered. How genuine is the site?
