By Katrina Cole 

There are so many people looking for work they can do at home to make a decent living that work from home typing jobs are in big demand. If you have been searching the Internet lately for opportunities to work from home than you have no doubt come across some major claims of big money for simple work. Let's take a closer look at work from home typing jobs.
What They Are: Work from home typing jobs could have you doing a multitude of different things like writing articles, blog posts, sales copy or ebooks. You could find yourself doing data entry (which more often than not ends up being affiliate marketing) or typing classified sales ads. With the right training you could also get involved in medical transcription.
Do I Need Experience: Technically, no. Realistically, yes. As long as you have a computer and Internet access you technically can do work from home typing jobs. Depending on what you want to get involved in you can also get training for these jobs. For example, data entry and medical transcription jobs will often require a fee to learn how to perform the task first. If you plan on freelancing, you really should have some credentials since you will be competing for the jobs with others, although this is not required.
How To Find The Jobs: Many people who want to do work from home typing jobs use freelancing websites such as Elance, Scriptlance and Getafreelancer. These sites are free to use but you will need to "bid" on jobs. Pay is not always great since everyone tries to underbid everyone else. You can also look for data entry companies and medical transcription companies that offer training at a cost to you. Do your research...make sure they are reputable before handing over any money.
What I Should Know Before Starting: Before getting your heart set on having a work from home typing job that will make you a fortune for a small amount of work know this; That is not going to happen. First, work from home typing jobs are usually "affiliate marketing" which has you write promotional material for certain companies and you post that material to the sites they suggest. You make your money when a customer clicks on your link and purchases a product. The most common form of this is "data entry". Second, the real work from home typing jobs like writing articles, blog posts or ebooks for business owners are hard to get. You will end up bidding against hundreds of others, lots of whom are from third world countries and can work for far, far less than you can.
What Other Options Do I Have? If you are willing to put in hard work and are committed to having a job that keeps you home with your family, offers you flexible hours and can make you a decent living you should look into a home based business in Online Marketing. This is a more viable long term solution than work from home typing jobs, and the earning potential is much greater. You will need to learn the basics first through training and mentoring, but the great thing is that you can earn money while you are learning; putting into effect what you gain knowledge of each day. Your hard work is required, but the payoff is far greater than any work from home typing job can offer.
