For any person who is interested in getting started with a work from home position, this is a wonderful opportunity. There are so many different things you can do right at home and still bring in an income for the household each month. Especially if you are a parent who has children at home and you do not want to put them in daycare, this is a great opportunity. The number ten spot goes to the position of a franchise owner.

While this opportunity can certainly be financially rewarding, the problem is that many of these jobs listed online are scams. They will be nothing more than a waste of your time and you could even end up putting yourself out money. There are some legit franchise owner opportunities so just use common sense and keep your scam-detection radar on high. The number nine position is given to the writer/editor position.

Companies are always looking to hire writers and editors whether it is for web content, recipe writing, children’s book editing or any other purpose. That leads us into number eight which is the teacher position.  Never before would we have imagined a teacher being able to teach a class full of students completely over the computer and now it is true. Or you may want to get into the travel and tourism field and become a travel agent as this falls into the seventh spot on the list.

Technical support specialists come in at number six, and these are people called when someone is experiencing technical difficulty with something. This is someone that is called when a person needs technical support on something like their cable TV or cell phone. The number four spot easily goes to the web designer position as these are much sought after and often lucrative positions that can be held entirely online. Being a translator is a sought after stay at home these days.

If you are a translator working from home you may be asked to do anything from translate different audio files to give language lessons to children in China.  The medical transcriptionist job is one that is one of the most challenging to do at home but one which can also be one of the most successful and financially rewarding.  Topping the list is the virtual assistant position. If you are a virtual assistant you will do all the same secretarial work only it will all be done online.
