It has been a year that i am trying to get some data entry jobs. But all site need some upfront fees that has to be paid. I have tried PTC sites but it takes months to get even a dollar. So if you know any site with no registration fee please do reply.

I also would say try pixprofit.. I just got paid yesterday. I started there last saturday, so it took me 4 days to get the 3 usd, you could get it faster if you just give it more time.

Unfortunely, there are not alot of legit data entry job out there,but everyone wants one. So the scammers come out and create websites to prey on people's emotion. www.guru.com like www.odesk.com is a place where you can big on some small data entry jobs and then work up a reputation in their system. livework.com and crowdclowd.com are new ones. I do understand your need to make some extra money at home. I have been working for several call centers for a few years now at home. Mostly early morning and while the kids at school because I need to keep the house somewhat quiet when doing it. It is legit work and there is decent money to be made. http://wahjobs.blogspot.com has a listing of some of those companies.

hi suji,i don't want to say this,but, i have to say i really fedup with data entry, i have joined before in one company, i don't want to mention the name. i have paid 3,500 as a deposit. they gave me two profit, i just completed very well i am thinking about that. but there is no use of pay from there. they say simply that you got mistakes in data entry so, we can't pay you. i heared like the same answer from my friends also. so, i don't want to try again in data entry. if any thing new let me know. thanks, have a nice day.
