Online data entry is basically a manifest of data outsourcing in which companies hire firms abroad to transform their data into the electronic form. This can include various types of company records, statements, and other data that has to be typed in by the end of the line employee at the outsourcing firm. Data entry is typically an entry level job with minimal skills and almost zero experience required. Only basic typing skills, familiarity with the internet and computers are sufficient for securing a job as an entry operator. Although typically, data entry operators work a standard 40 hour week, online data entry jobs offer more flexibility in terms of workload and timings. This is invaluable for those who have a prior commitment, during the daytime be that a university course lecture, a day job or a house to manage (in case of homemakers).
The employee is typically given a username and password with which he/she has to login on to the server and complete the articles assigned within the day. These entries are then checked for accuracy and classified to the corresponding pay scale. The general working principle of these companies is that any given article is duplicated by assigning it to multiple data entry operators and cross checking them for consistency and submitting the best draft amongst them. The impact of a data entry job is not much, considering its requirement of minimal skills and experience, and it is often treated as a stepping stone for further career options.
Barring the malicious spam and fraud schemes rampant on the internet that promise easy money for data entry jobs online, a stable job with a reliable and reasonably successful outsourcing firm is a good option to make money particularly if one needs to supplement one s finances with some extra income. It has flexible timings of a work at home job, reasonable workload and a realistic pay scale. It is, no doubt, a good alternative for some one who cherishes freedom, hates bosses, and loves the net.
