Are you looking for home based online work on a self-employed
basis? Then you might like to sign up as an Internet Researcher and
start earning cash from home today.
This flexible home working opportunity couldn't be
more rewarding or easier to conduct.
What type of work is this and how does it work?
Here's how the system works. Someone wants to know
an answer to a question, this may be a general knowledge question, a
question asking your advice, or a question asking for specific information.
The enquirer sends the question via his/her mobile phone to the Information
Service's website. You pick up the question, find the answer, reply
to the sender online, and get paid for your answer.
What do I need to get started?
The role offers flexible working hours and an attractive
pay structure. All you need is your own computer, with a broadband internet
connection and your expertise. You must have a good command of English,
be computer literate and have the ability to find answers to questions
quickly.
How much can I earn?
So, how much can you earn? This depends on how many
hours you put in and how quickly and accurately you are able to answer
questions, but on an average you can earn between GBP6.00 - GBP10.00
per hour.
Can anyone join?
This type of work isn't suitable for everyone. You
do need certain skills to be able to perform. So before you are accepted
as an Internet Researcher you will have to undergo a test to see how
well and quickly you answer questions. The test can take up to an hour
to complete and the questions will test your knowledge on a variety
of subjects. The test is conducted at home and your answers are sent
via email. Once the test is completed, it will be checked by the Internet
Researcher company and they will contact you via email to let you know
if you have been successful or not.
Who is this suitable for?
Ideal candidates are those looking to earn extra income
through part-time work and who are prepared to work on a self-employed
basis with performance related pay. Registration is free.
