Data entry job opportunities exist in abundance on the Internet. There are legitimate opportunities and there are also scam. How to spot a scam? If they are requiring you to pay money just to get the job! Remember, if you are looking for a job online, it's just like looking a job offline. In the offline world, when you are looking for a job, do you have to pay your prospective employer just to get hired by him? Of course not! So, apply this same principle when looking for a job online. There is an exception: Try to see whether the opportunity that is requiring you to pay something is a job opportunity or business opportunity. If an Internet-based job opportunity requires you to pay money, that's probably a scam. But if the one you are being offered is a business opportunity, it is normal to spend some start-up capital to start a business, whether online business or offline business, you both need to invest money.

There are many skills that you need to possess if you plan to work online from home. First, you must have a good grasp on your computer and its tools as well as internet research. Data entry may include administrative task or other clerical duties too. Don't be scared on a data entry job, I'm not saying that it's that real easy but if you are determine to do something with less supervision then you can finish it confidently. Data entry pays well if you are on the right site. There are lots of data entry jobs but most of them are not trusted. You can check this out, odesk.com, I'm with them for more than 2 years now.
