Hello dear readers. Today we’ll talk about working on the Internet without investment. I had never asked myself this question before, and then I realized that the topic is really relevant and many people want to find work on the Internet. Moreover, I myself once looked for it and found it.
In this article, I will tell you all the possible options for finding a job or part-time job, so that almost any Internet user can find a paid activity to their liking and without investment. I will provide the necessary links, tell you where and how much they pay, etc. And most importantly, I will tell you about working ways to earn normal money, and not pennies for clicks!
So, let's begin!
There are many benefits of working on the Internet. I personally am glad that all my activities are conducted online, which allows me to work from home. This is not only freedom, but also a good income.
How much you can earn and how, read below!
Now I’ll tell you something banal, but everyone who knows this, don’t spit in my direction, because for many it’s not clear!
On the Internet, as in real life, money comes either from the sale of goods, or from the provision of services, or from advertising!
Accordingly, you must at least understand that when working for someone on the Internet, you will help sell goods, services and participate in the creation or sale of advertising. Even writing a custom article is work to attract traffic, which will be monetized by selling advertising, a product or service. You must know and understand this in order to successfully work on the Internet. If you read the article to the end, you will understand me.
You can earn both a lot and a little, and it all depends on what kind of work you do, and most importantly HOW. There are few good specialists and responsible workers, and therefore they are worth their weight in gold. Everyone who works on the Internet is essentially a freelancer or remote worker. If you are not registered with the company, then you are a freelancer; if you are, then you are a remote employee. We will talk about both.
On average, a good freelancer earns from 50,000 rubles per month. The amount is not large for Moscow and Moscow Region, but not small for the regions either. There are, of course, those who earn less, but this won’t last long. A freelancer is a free person who strives for self-education, self-improvement, etc. Therefore, as his knowledge and skills grow, his income also grows. I have met many freelancers with an income of more than RUB 100,000. per month, which is also not a lot for this area. It all depends on what you do (I’ll talk about this below).
A remote worker or a company employee (you can easily become one too) can earn money in different ways. It all depends on the company you are joining. These amounts, as a rule, rarely exceed 100,000 rubles. But there are also small companies that are looking for workers in the regions to save money and pay 20-30 thousand rubles. per month, which is the average salary for the region.
Everything couldn't be simpler here. I'm used to always using logic. If the work is carried out on the Internet, then the MOST important thing you need to be able to do is to be on the Internet like a duck to water. You must be an advanced Internet user. I cannot tell you the degree of advancement, but I think that you will understand me further. If it is difficult for you to even register on a website, then working on the Internet is not for you. You also need to read the first paragraph of this article and understand where money comes from on the Internet. It is important. And of course, you need to have a good understanding of the activity you are engaged in.
He's not hiding anywhere. There are many places to find a variety of work! Below I will talk about where to find work on the Internet and will also give examples of the work that you can do.
Tinkoff Bank offers work on the Internet from home with official employment. The vacancy is called "Sales Specialist of Banking Services at Home". The bank provides free training and you get to work. You don’t need to look for any clients, the bank provides the database. The requirements for candidates are simple, so almost anyone can cope with this type of work. You need access to the Internet, devote at least 30 hours a week to work, and maintain silence during conversations.
In order to start working, you must first fill out an application for bank website. You will also find more detailed information there.
The easiest way to find work is on freelancing sites, where customers need performers. We will divide the exchanges by areas.
Exchanges where everyone can make money!
Work-zilla- this is the simplest and most profitable option for everyone to make money. There are tasks on the exchange that do not require special knowledge and skills, and the pay for tasks is quite generous. In general, it must be said that the “Simple Help” category on this site is the most popular (29% of all tasks, that is, actually a third). This group includes such basic tasks that do not require special skills, such as “download files”, “register accounts”, “fill the site with content”, “find information on the Internet”, “check table data”, “translate audio into text” and etc. Also, without special training, you can easily get used to such a niche as “placing advertisements on boards.” If you have a good tongue, then you can go for cold calling.
There are also cool (not ordinary) tasks. Such as: helping to choose a car or a house, helping to cope with depression, writing congratulations to a father on his daughter’s wedding, congratulating over the phone, photographing the streets of your city, waking up at a certain time, etc. And people are willing to pay for this.
On average, performers earn 20-30 thousand rubles. on this exchange. Not much, but just right for part-time work or small errands. I also wrote about a designer friend of mine. So it’s also at least 30-40 thousand rubles. makes money in Workzilla, and without overworking.
Forumok is an exchange for those who have their own blogs, pages on social networks and accounts on forums. For 1 post on a good forum you can get 100 rubles. and more.
Qcomment— you can earn money by posting on social networks, joining groups, writing comments on websites, etc. This is a very popular exchange.
General exchanges:
Here you can find orders for programming, website development, text writing, advertising setup, etc.
Freelance exchanges for copywriters:
Freelance exchanges for lawyers:
Legal And 9111 – a question and answer exchange for lawyers and advocates. Register in the services and get paid for answering questions on jurisprudence, as well as for legal advice.
Freelance exchanges for designers:
Freelance exchanges for students:
Freelance exchanges for creatives:
I'm sure every city has job search sites. So on these sites there are vacancies for remote work. Look for them and perhaps you will find something interesting for yourself. For example:
There you will basically need to look for work in your city, but in the “Remote work” section. The only place you will need to go is for an interview.
There are also sites for finding remote specialists. For example, there is such a section on the website Zuckerberg will call. You can find others if you try.
You can simply search for Internet companies in your area of interest or skills and look for the “Vacancies” section on their websites. It is usually located in the footer (at the very bottom of the site) or in the top menu. In general, search and you will find many such companies, and therefore jobs on the Internet. Checked! Internet companies mainly require permanent remote employees. Most often: programmers, layout designers, designers, testers, SEO specialists, SMM specialists, copywriters, project managers, sales managers, advertising specialists, specialists in the recruitment department, editor or site administrator, etc. The main thing is to look. And you will definitely find it!
Just look for companies based on your preferences and interests. If you hate books, then you don’t need to get a job at a publishing house.
By the way, such a section will soon appear on my website, but it will require temporary workers or partners, not employees.
I very often found freelancers through VKontakte. Some who need a permanent or temporary remote employee write about it on their VK wall. And you can find this message in the search. Enter the phrase “Remote work” or “Looking for a remote employee” or something like that in the search bar of the social network VKontakte and select the “News” tab. And look for messages from VK users in your feed.
There are many spam offers in the search results, you will immediately notice them, but there are also many useful ones. The main thing is to want!
There are also many groups on VK that provide vacancies on the Internet. Look for such groups.
Above you have already seen a huge list of sites where you can work via the Internet without investment. Moreover, all sites work without deception, so you can safely register and work. But here’s what I also wanted to advise you:
In order to work on the Internet, or more precisely, in order to receive money for it, you need electronic wallets and a bank card for withdrawing money. Be sure to register the following payment instruments:
Most often, you will receive payment using electronic money, and then withdraw it to a bank card. This applies to freelance exchanges. If you find a job with an employer, then he already has his own rules. I’ve had all these wallets and cards for a long time, so it’s not without reason that I recommend them.
As you can see, finding a job on the Internet without investment is as easy as shelling pears. The main thing is to just get off your butt and start searching. Yes, you will have to write a resume, make a list of your skills, pass interviews, tests and register on freelance exchanges. But all this will pay off in the fact that you will find your job, your orders and you will easily earn good money while sitting at home on the Internet. Luck with searching!
If you have any questions or disagree with something, I’ll be glad to chat in the comments!
Best regards, Schmidt Nikolay
Hello, dear visitors of my Internet resource! Every day, more and more users are joining and appreciating its clear advantages. If you also want to work online without risks and much effort, then this article is for you! Today I will tell you about various simple ways to earn extra money, advise you on how and where to start your business, and what nuances should be taken into account. You will learn about the main advantages and disadvantages of working on the Internet, and understand what requirements are put forward for beginners. Also in this article you will get access to a list of common projects that can bring you both additional and main profit. With the right approach, you can reach your desired level of income in the shortest possible time.
First of all, it is worth saying that this type of activity is suitable for absolutely everyone, regardless of gender, age and social status. Those who already have a main job will be able to earn extra money online and earn additional income. Others may find a type of employment that will bring them a good full-time income.
The requirements for users are minimal. So, you will need:
If you have the time and desire, registered an E-mail and created a virtual wallet, then all you have to do is choose your field of activity. There are many ways to earn extra money on the Internet, so you need to choose one or more options that you will devote time to.
It is worth noting that many methods of online work can be very successfully combined. So, for example, filling out surveys is an activity that will only take you 15-20 minutes. And since these surveys do not arrive every day, you can do other activities in your free time.
Having chosen your preferred type of employment, all you have to do is get acquainted with the most. Next you will need:
This is one of the simplest methods of earning additional income online. Users are only required to be at least 18 years of age (and in some cases, persons under 18 but over 14 years of age are also allowed to work) and provide honest answers to all questions.
All questions in surveys usually relate to consumer products and services that are used by a large number of people. Such tests are ordered by manufacturers of certain products to find out the opinions of their potential customers.
This will help them improve the quality of their products in the future. This is an excellent opportunity for you to express your opinion online, influence the production process of goods and receive a small reward for the work done.
Pay levels may vary here. from 20 to 150 rubles per study. The number of questions in the questionnaires always varies; the topics can also be different (from food and hygiene products, to pet products, airline services, etc.). You will spend from 10 to 30 minutes completing the test, and the reward in many projects is accrued instantly.
However, such work requires performers to comply with certain rules, among which:
Today we will talk about remote work on the Internet, its types and vacancies that are relevant in 2019, as well as how to find a job on the Internet without investment or deception and receive above the average salary in your city.
Greetings, dear reader! With you are the founders of the business magazine HiterBober.ru Alexander Berezhnov and Vitaly Tsyganok.
For more than 7 years we have been making money online, now we have our own team, we have a free schedule and work from home.
But it was not always so.
We didn’t have rich parents, at the very beginning we barely made ends meet and more than once faced deception.
From the article you will learn:
Sit back and close all additional windows on your screen! You will not regret reading the article to the end!
Working on the Internet from home gives a person the opportunity to forget about schedules, waking up at 7 am and scheduled vacations. By starting to earn income through the World Wide Web, you will gain financial stability, and most importantly, you will work only for yourself.
In recent years, the remote work and freelancing market has been growing by an average of 30% per year.
According to leading Russian analytical agencies, in 2015 the total amount of funds earned by freelancers and remote employees amounted to about 1 billion dollars!
Even if your profits are low at first, you will gradually improve your skills and soon you will definitely achieve a level of income that satisfies you.
However, many people have concerns when it comes to working on the Internet, because for most it is fiction. It seems to them that working from home is impossible to earn money without their own investments and deception on the part of employers. People who have encountered scammers more than once are wary of new opportunities.
We assert that Internet activity is a real prospect, accessible to almost everyone.
To earn income using a computer, you don’t have to be a cool IT specialist or programmer. It is enough to have constant access to the network, free time, an electronic wallet, for example, WebMoney or Yandex.Money and a desire to work.
Let's look at the main advantages that working on the Internet gives us:
Beginners should be immediately warned that high profits in the first weeks and even months of working online are unlikely to be expected, especially if you are looking for income without investment or risk. Working on the Internet for beginners is usually a painstaking and monotonous activity: making money by performing various kinds of cheap tasks.
This type of work is more suitable for those who want to earn some money during the holidays or in their free time from studying.
This also includes making money from games and paid surveys on the Internet. There is even such a type of earnings as typing: it is proposed to simply translate audio or video content into a text file. Such work is paid, it must be said, meagerly.
The main thing is not to stop at this level for a long time, otherwise stagnation awaits you financially and personally. When starting to work in the electronic space, always think about the prospects: if your income is constantly increasing, and the time spent on work, on the contrary, is decreasing, then you are on the right path.
We invite you to visually compare the advantages and disadvantages of remote work on the Internet with standard office work in production.
Please study the table below carefully:
№ | Comparison criterion | Standard office and industrial work | Distant work and freelancing |
1 | Flexible schedule | No
(almost always) | Eat |
2 | Income amount | Limited
(In most cases) | Unlimited
(progressive) |
3 | Income growth dynamics | Low | High |
4 | Official employment | Yes
(in case of official registration under the labor code) | Yes
(if officially registered as an individual entrepreneur or LLC) |
5 | Dependence on the customer (boss) | Eat
(to a greater extent) | Eat
(less) |
6 | Nature of income | Projected
(stable) | Floating
(unstable at the beginning) |
7 | Degree of responsibility | Average | High |
8 | Form of remuneration | For the process
(in most cases salary) | For the result
(Always) |
9 | Labor costs before the first money | High | High |
10 | Geographical reference to the place | Eat | No |
So we figured out the concept of “Working on the Internet” and clearly saw its advantages and disadvantages.
Before moving on to the next information block, I would like to note that working on the Internet in most cases is impossible without your own website, on which you can, for example, place your portfolio, or at least without knowledge of how websites are created and function in general, therefore It’s a good idea to undergo special training before switching to freelancing. A resource where you can learn all these subtleties for free and online and which we personally trust -
Freelancing and remote work are almost similar concepts.
"Freelancer" means, translated from English, “freelance employee,” that is, a person who works remotely without a strict schedule.
If you choose this path, then you will have to look for clients yourself. Having found a customer, you do the work and receive a fee for it. Freelancing can be considered as ).
Distant work- this is practically the same work in its classical sense, only in this case you are not geographically located in the same office or premises with the employer. For example, you are an accountant who works from home and keeps records of finances and document flow for a certain company.
Remote work can be found online for representatives of hundreds of professions - journalists, designers, programmers, teachers, translators, managers, engineers. Any skills and abilities that do not require your direct presence at the place of work can be implemented via the Internet.
Today, through the Internet, you can write articles, teach people English and yoga, draw pictures, create business projects and bet on football matches taking place in New Zealand. Any type of activity that you master perfectly can, with a reasonable approach, bring you a stable profit.
Working from home on the Internet is a chance to express yourself and turn your talent into money.
Today, both representatives of creative professions and narrow technical specialists are becoming freelancers.
According to statistics, people who work remotely earn 1.5-2 times more than their office colleagues, while spending less time on work (this also includes the time spent commuting to work).
The average salary of a specialist working online is approximately from 30 to 100 thousand rubles monthly.
In classic remote work, the customer and the contractor do not meet each other in person, but communicate exclusively through means of communication - the Internet, telephone, Skype or email.
However, some freelancers can find clients in their hometown and communicate with them personally, in which case the work will not be remote.
For remote work, it doesn’t matter where you live - in a village with a population of 2,000 people or in a metropolis. The Internet will give you the opportunity to instantly connect with anywhere in the world.
Working as a copywriter, translator, or IT specialist, you can communicate with clients from different countries: the main condition for successful cooperation is mutual understanding and fair wages.
Let's now consider the main advantages of remote work and freelancing:
Some types of freelancing require payment for work every day: this is more convenient than receiving a salary once a month or once every 2 weeks;
But don’t think that becoming a freelancer means getting money for next to nothing. This type of work also has certain disadvantages. The main one is the lack of a social package. If you have not registered your activity as, or not, you do not have the benefits that officially employed people have.
For example, you will have to pay for hospital services yourself if you get sick. Vacations will also have to be paid for out of your own pocket.
On forums, blogs and special websites for freelancers you can find reviews about working on the Internet from those who have actually tried this type of activity or are still practicing it. Below, you will also find our reviews and reviews of our friends about working on the Internet.
There are also those who are categorically not satisfied with “complete freedom”: no one tells you how and what to do, you have to figure everything out with your own mind. But, if you joined this business very successfully, then most likely you will no longer wish for any other job other than freelancing.
If you are interested in the prospect of working on the Internet without investment, we invite you to familiarize yourself with the most in-demand and popular vacancies.
We would like to warn you right away that working online is work that requires discipline, responsibility and time investment. If you are a lazy, dispensable and irresponsible person, then you are unlikely to have many customers.
However, if you love what you do, have a goal, know exactly what you are worth and what you are capable of, then the Internet will provide you with many opportunities to realize your potential in the best possible way.
Designer is a very popular profession online, but competition in this area is quite high. To join this industry, you will need a lot of time and effort: at first you will have to work for pennies, but gradually your pay will increase.
For any designer, the most important condition for successful work is having a portfolio. If your folder (or website) contains examples of successful author’s projects, the likelihood of receiving an order increases many times over.
It must be said that there are many different areas in this specialty, and for each of them there is its own audience of customers. The most popular specialty in this category is web designer. Essentially, this is the person who will make your website beautiful, recognizable and functional.
A designer for an Internet resource needs to be a specialist in several areas at once, but the payment can be very decent. Price per project varies from $100 to $3000 and above.
Popular design trends:
As you can see, the field of activity is more than vast, and for a person with creative abilities there are thousands of options for self-realization.
, - in fact, these are different areas of the same profession.
The essence of a copywriter’s work is the creation of unique text content for Internet resources. This is the most classic remote work via the Internet: writers almost never meet their clients in person.
The specialty of a copywriter requires patience, perseverance and, most importantly, masterful command of words. The creator of text content must be able to write technical instructions for repairing a refrigerator, make a working advertisement for a spa salon, or rewrite any article so that even the author himself does not recognize it.
The profession is not an easy one: not everyone becomes a successful text creator. Experience as a journalist, literature teacher, and philological education helps in this. If you learn to sell goods and services using words or create unique content that is interesting to readers, your services will become in demand and expensive.
A good copywriter can earn a month from 45 to 100 thousand rubles ($500 - $1500).
For talented authors with a name and fame in the network space, there is no upper ceiling. If the owner of the resource understands that the site’s income directly depends on the text content, he is ready to pay a good copywriter the price that he sets himself.
The work of a copywriter is similar to the work of a creative and talented seller - his level of income directly depends on his ability to sell a product.
A specialist in this area is engaged in creating the concept, strategy, and structure of an Internet project (site). Such a person develops technical problems, conducts marketing research, is engaged in website optimization, promotion and promotion in search engines.
Internet management specialists are not yet trained in universities, but the field of activity itself is already quite in demand.
Owners of websites, online stores and other online commercial resources are willing to pay their project managers from 30 thousand rubles ($500) per month and above.
The functions of a personal assistant to an entrepreneur on the Internet are the same as those of an assistant in real life - organizing current affairs, optimizing the “boss’” schedule, working with documentation.
The difference is that the work is carried out via the Internet. This specialty requires attentiveness, creativity, flexibility of thinking, and the ability to make non-standard decisions.
Often, a high level of communication skills is required from an entrepreneur's assistant. After all, he often interacts with his manager’s clients and partners.
A remote assistant for a businessman should:
The monthly earnings of a good specialist in this business are unlimited: it all depends on the generosity of the entrepreneur.
A call center operator is a person who helps to obtain information, talks about services, and advises on a particular issue via the Internet.
Basically, these specialists work in two areas:
One of the functions of such remote workers is communication via online chat.
The specialist is live and answers text messages, audio calls, and sometimes video calls.
Work in this area requires deep knowledge of the subject matter with which the operator works, plus the ability to communicate with people.
Everyone knows who a programmer is.
Programmer is a developer and creator of unique computer programs.
There is always a real job on the Internet for a good digital specialist. If you speak English, you can work with foreign customers, where the pay is much higher. To become a remote programmer, you must either have a higher technical education or be a talented self-taught person.
Nowadays, application development is a particularly popular area for programmers. Specialists in this field earn up to $10,000.
A specialist in any field can advise other people online - via email, chat, Skype and other electronic means of communication.
Such activities do not require renting a special room, a strict work schedule or other attributes of working in the “real world”.
All that is required of you is your knowledge and ability to communicate with people.
Hundreds of thousands of people want to learn a foreign language. This is necessary for students, schoolchildren and everyone who wants full access, for example, to the English-speaking segment of the Internet space.
If you are an expert in the field, you can teach languages to others via Skype and other video or audio communication tools.
Distances are no longer a hindrance: theoretically, while living in Voronezh, you can teach Russian to a resident of Alaska, if, of course, you have the appropriate knowledge.
Marketer– a specialist whose goal is to increase the company’s sales volume.
An Internet marketer promotes products, services and events of companies and private clients on the Internet.
The salary of such a specialist in the market ranges from 50 000 before 150 000 rubles or more if he works as a full-time employee. Data on wages are provided by the authoritative portals hh.ru and superjob.ru.
If you master this profession, you can easily work remotely from anywhere in the world, even as a full-time specialist. That is, being, for example, in the city of Voronezh or even in another country, you can easily do work for a client from Moscow or New York.
I wrote that 50-150 t.r.- this is the income of a STAFF employee, that is, if you work for some company, this will be your salary, possibly with a bonus part.
But there is another way to make money in this profession - to provide marketing services for companies and entrepreneurs on the Internet for a percentage of sales.
For example, you know how to find clients for events (concerts, trainings) via the Internet and then you can ask the organizers for your percentage of each ticket sold.
If the volume of ticket sales through you was 1500 000 rubles, then you can negotiate from 25% of your commission. What in this case will be 375 000 rubles from one project.
How to learn this profession?
To do this, I recommend that you take a training course from Skillbox. The training is conducted by marketing agency specialists with a guarantee of future employment.
The work of a network administrator is similar to the work of a website content manager. Groups in social networks are a potential consumer audience: the administrator’s task is to create advertising posts, texts, conduct competitions and other organizational work.
The site (group) administrator is also responsible for moderating comments and maintaining the proper level of work of the administered project.
We have also been engaged in Internet activities for the purpose of generating income for several years. We started with “offline” and freelancing, where we gradually reached our own online business. Now we have experience of both permanent remote employees of the company and employers. Below we will briefly talk about each direction separately.
Since this all started. Only after several years of hard work did we really understand Internet technologies, marketing, and Internet promotion.
Vitaly Tsyganok, co-founder of the business magazine HiterBober.ru:
We earned about 500,000 rubles ($7,000). At first, orders were accepted exclusively in their city, later they connected Internet channels for searching for customers. Word of mouth also played a significant role - satisfied clients recommended us to their friends and it was no longer us who were looking for orders, but the customers who wanted to work with us as quality performers.
I would like to say a special thank you to our work with Alexander at the Alex Yanovsky School of Business and Personal Development, where we dealt with promotion, marketing and positioning of the Business School brand.
At the same time, we created our own online business, and so we left our work on the Internet, and the Internet business began to bring us much more and we decided not to scatter ourselves, but to develop only our business.
In my opinion, everything happened as it should have. We went from simple to complex: training, then the first projects, then work and regular orders, and only then our Internet business, now it brings us several thousand dollars a month.
Therefore, I was convinced from my own experience that working on the Internet is not only possible, but also necessary, if you have the desire, the money will come.
Now we no longer take orders, although we can recommend our friends who will carry them out efficiently.
We are currently developing our business of creating and monetizing information sites on the Internet. You are now reading this article on one of these sites.
Now we ourselves regularly use the services of remote employees, primarily copywriters (text authors), and also occasionally collaborate with designers and programmers.
Having been in the shoes of remote workers, we have learned to correctly select specialists whose price and quality of services best meet the needs of our projects.
And if you work online as a freelancer, then know that if you wish, it will be much easier for you to open your own business than for a classic office employee.
After all, a freelancer is an entrepreneur!
Evgeniy Bobyshev | I'm growing my online business and getting ready to quit my day job.While working as a deputy director at a design institute and being involved in government procurement for several years, at the same time I opened my own website, which gradually became my home business. Now I’m already thinking about leaving my job, as I see more prospects in Internet activities. |
Greetings, dear friend! With you is Alexander Berezhnov, author and founder of the website “PAPA HELPED”. Today's practical article is dedicated to working on the Internet. For several years now, the global network has been the main source of income for me and my family.
During this time I managed to earn several apartments, buy foreign car. And this became possible thanks to the World Wide Web. From personal experience, I was convinced that earning several thousand dollars in a couple of weeks is far from the limit.
I will tell you which remote work vacancies are currently trending, how much you can earn from home, and who is suitable for this activity. You will learn what qualities and skills you need to have to succeed in an online job.
The material turned out to be detailed, interesting and quite voluminous. If you don't have time to read the entire article, bookmark it so you can return to it later.
Make yourself comfortable and let's go!
Even beginners can work on the Internet as freelancers and earn from $200 per month without having any special skillsI’ll answer right away, it is suitable for everyone who has a desire to work and a computer with the Internet.
Dear reader, I have clearly shown that working on the Internet is suitable for everyone. It doesn’t matter how old you are or what experience you have today. You can learn everything if you want.
Starting in “semi-remote” mode, you can find your first customers even in your own city, and produce the product itself on a computer.
For example, this format is suitable for novice designers or video editors.
But is “computer activity” really that good? Is it really without its drawbacks?
In the table below I have listed the pros and cons of remote work:
Comparison criterion | "Regular" work | Remote employment (freelancing) |
Official employment | Yes according to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation (+) | Yes, either according to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, or in the status of individual entrepreneur (+) |
Schedule | "Standard" (+-) | |
Financial stability and income growth | Predictable salary, slow income growth (+-) | There is no stability at first, progressive income growth (+-) |
Nature of earnings | Linear. Depends more on the time spent at work. Suitable for conservatives (+-) | Piecework. Payment is made for the value actually brought. Suitable for innovators (+) |
Form of payment | Salary or salary + percentage (+-) | By design (+-) |
Growth prospects | Career (+) | Your own business on the Internet (+) |
Degree of responsibility | Average. Limited by job responsibilities (+-) | High. You need to be responsible for the final result (+-) |
Mobility | Absent (-) | You can work from home or travel while working (+) |
As can be seen from the table, remote employment has more advantages, although there are plenty of them in a “standard” job. Here everyone chooses their own option.
I started working remotely during my college years. Since I studied computer design from the age of 13 and was proficient in Photoshop. With knowledge of this program, I got a job as a freelance designer in one of framing salons* city of Stavropol.
For reference
A framing salon is a workshop where custom frames are made for paintings, icons, embroideries, and so on. In our context, a baguette is a picture frame.
The essence of my work was editing images on a computer that were provided by clients for further printing on canvas and framing in a baguette frame. I was engaged in “substituting” the heads of real people on the computer into portraits of famous artists. I changed the backgrounds of images, restored old and damaged photos, scanning them first.
My profession was called photo artist. I worked from home and went into the salon every few days to take new orders and receive payment for the work done. I emailed the finished files to the owner of the framing salon, and he and his assistant created a material version of the painting from them.
This is how my journey began with half-remote work. At that time I was about 20 years old. This part-time job brought me 7,000 rubles before 13 000 per month. Moreover, the average salary in our city at that time was 12-15 thousand rubles . For me, design work became a part-time job that took from 30 minutes to an hour and a half a day.
That’s when I realized that if you have certain skills, you can work at home. Moreover, I really liked it and brought in a good income for a student.
Conclusion
Analyze which computer-related skills you have that you can use to make a profit.
Then I had several attempts at offline businesses that were not successful. I tried with all my might, but it didn’t work out right away. Then I met my friend Vitaly, and we decided to start creating custom websites.
The logic was simple: I understand design, and Vitalik was interested in layout and programming. Decided - done! We found our first customers in our city and offered them website creation services.
We didn’t even have a portfolio and our first clients were our friends and their acquaintances. Having successfully completed several projects, we were further recommended as good performers. Clients began to contact us from other cities.
So our activities moved completely online. We negotiated by phone and Skype. Our clients were mainly companies from Russia. However, we also managed to work with foreign customers. At first, the earnings were low, but as I gained experience, the work went faster and there was more money.
At that moment I had an insight
Through the Internet I earned money IN A DAY 3 000 , 5 000 and even 15 000! rubles (at that time 500$ ). This is my record income as a freelancer.
Then it finally hit me and I realized that working online gives me creative freedom and generates income up to 120,000 ! rubles per month, allows you to remotely meet interesting people and engage in exciting projects.
At this time, we met in absentia with various entrepreneurs in the field of information technology. Another promising direction has opened up for us - content projects*. We got excited and got to work.
However, this direction has one peculiarity. To create a high-quality and profitable business in the form of a website or blog, it takes many months of hard work. This means you must have a third-party source of income or a solid financial cushion in the form of savings. Prospects are good, but I want to “eat” today.
We solved this problem simply. Most of the time we made websites for people for a fee, covering current expenses, and in the evenings and free time we worked on a profitable “article book”.
We worked on it for more than a year without any financial return, but over time the project began to generate good profits from advertising. So “Beaver” became our calling card and “the goose that lays the golden eggs.” To work on this project, we managed to gather an excellent team of like-minded people and create a truly worthy website.
We sold it in mid-2018 and the site now has a new owner.
Shortly before the sale of the project, my friend met in Dubai with a well-known businessman in this direction - Roman Puzat. For those interested, you can watch the history of the creation of “Beaver” in video format:
Conclusion
You can find your first customers through friends and it’s better to start offline, that is, in real life. Finding clients through social networks is also a great option to start with. Only then can you create profiles on special sites and exchanges for employees to work remotely (we’ll talk about them later).
Having acquired the necessary skills, you will be able to create your own business and hire freelancers - get a step higher and move from contractor to customer.

Multiple definition
Webmaster is a person who develops websites. He creates custom websites, improves existing ones, and so on. Just like a master in ceilings, interior decoration or wood carving and other “earthly” areas.
However, in the Internet space there is another, more narrow meaning of this profession. A webmaster is also called the owner of a website who makes money from it. For example, our website “PAPA HELPED” is such a project, and I am called the webmaster. Such a specialist can work both in the company’s staff and for himself, earning good money.
Professional knowledge and skills (qualification requirements):
Responsibilities:
How much does he earn? How can a website developer receive from 500 dollars per month or more. Working for himself and launching profitable websites, the profit of such an entrepreneur is calculated tens of thousands of rubles per month and can reach several million .
How to become. Complete online webmaster training courses or get a basic education at a university in the field of marketing or programming (it will help in this profession).
Description of the profession. This is a relatively new online profession and you will not find such a vacancy on popular job search portals. An information producer finds clients on the Internet for business trainers, teachers, coaches. Helps organize the work process, set up payment acceptance, and administers the educational project of a specific person or company.
This is the same Internet marketer only with an emphasis on promoting consulting and educational services. Like music producers who promote budding pop stars, an Internet producer is dedicated to creating and hosting performances by stars of the training business on the global Internet.
Professional knowledge and skills (qualification requirements):
Responsibilities:
How much does he earn? An information producer usually works for a percentage of the turnover of the educational project that he promotes.
This can be clearly understood in numbers using a simple example:
You attracted 50 clients in a month to study at an online school for website creation. Each of them paid 20,000 rubles per course. Then you can claim 50% of the proceeds. In our case 50 students multiply by 20,000 rubles, it turns out 1,000,000 rubles (turnover), half, that is 500 000 - yours!
How to become. This profession is not taught in institutions. The best information producers are experienced salespeople with excellent knowledge of marketing and Internet technologies. Therefore, if you decide to become such a specialist, work in the field of Internet marketing for at least a few months. Study the inner workings of all processes, and then find yourself a client - a professional in your field. You will promote it for a percentage. First, practice on simple projects, earn your first money, and only then take on more expensive and large-scale ones.
Description of the profession. Nowadays, the engineer no longer works with drawings, but performs all design activities on the computer. This means that he can create the fruits of his intellectual labor (projects) at home and interact with customers remotely.

Description of the profession. In the modern world, financial exchanges have existed for decades, and speculators - traders - make money on them. Now you can make money by buying and selling cryptocurrency, shares and other financial instruments.
The idea is simple - buy a stock or currency cheaper and sell it more expensive. The difference in the purchase and sale prices will be your profit.
I personally know one crypto trader (cryptocurrency speculator) who earns hundreds of thousands, and sometimes millions of rubles per month.
Professional knowledge and skills (qualification requirements):
Responsibilities:
How much does he earn? Most often, a trader receives a percentage of the client’s portfolio profit if he works with borrowed funds. If a stock speculator works with his own money, then the difference between the purchase price and the sale price will be his “salary”.
How to become. Among financial speculators there are a lot of self-taught people. Higher economic education is welcome here, but is not decisive. You can start with a symbolic amount of a few thousand rubles to simply practice or “play” on a demo account.
Description of the profession. If you already have substantial savings and you want to invest them wisely, do not rush to take them to the bank or give them to friends at interest. The World Wide Web provides ample opportunities for increasing capital. Investment funds, startups, IT projects - they all need money.
However, the risk of losing savings is very high here. On the Internet, a huge number of financial pyramids and other fraudulent projects are disguised as trustworthy financial instruments.
Real investors are very careful when choosing directions and are in no hurry to part with their money.
This profession is fundamentally different from all those described above. She is the most profitable, but also the most responsible.
Professional knowledge and skills (qualification requirements):
Responsibilities:
How much does he earn? An investor’s profit directly depends on his professionalism and starting capital. The larger they are, the higher his income. Here, the profitability of investments is expressed not in a monthly amount, but in capital gains expressed in percent per annum. The smaller the amount, the more aggressive investments the investor can afford.
How to become. Not a single university trains specialists called “investors.” And this is not even a profession, but a legal concept. Every person invests their money to one degree or another, the only difference is in the scale and approach. Self-education and communication with gurus from the world of finance is the best path for the “future Wolf of Wall Street.”

A very popular remote work exchange. This is where professionals mostly “live” and find “fat” clients. There are very expensive orders for 50 000 , 100,000 rubles and more. Once, my friend and I also ordered layout and programming services here for the amount of about $1,500 . | |
Classic and popular exchange. He has been working in the market for many years. As the service administration states, we are ready to welcome responsible, professional people, free fighters and creative “artists.” Thus emphasizing that they are happy to work with professionals in their field. | |
A popular “shop” of freelance services in all popular areas: traffic, design, marketing, website creation. The “lifestyle” section also caught my attention here. Where you can get advice on nutrition, interior design, and even ready-made answers for a test or exam. | |
This is an entire portal dedicated to remote work. Here you will find many articles on the topic of freelancing, news and other useful goodies. All this is harmoniously combined with the exchange, where you, as a novice “businessman”, can find your first customers. |
There are especially many narrow-profile freelance exchanges for copywriters.
If you are passionate about the idea of making money by writing texts, here are popular and reliable exchanges for “scribblers”:
On this exchange I found copywriters for a previous project. An excellent option for both beginners and pros. To start working here, you need to pass a test for knowledge of the Russian language. | |
A good service that combines a platform for copywriters and the ability to check text for uniqueness. Some of my friends started with it and are now successfully working with text. | |
Exchange for professionals. Here you can earn money 100, 200 rubles for 1,000 characters of text. It has a powerful built-in service for checking the uniqueness of texts. If you are just starting out, it is better to practice writing texts on other sites, and after gaining experience, come here. | |
Good for beginners. First your earnings will be from 10 to 20 rubles for 1,000 characters (rewriting), and then you can apply for more expensive copyright orders. You can write texts here not to order, but for sale. The demand for them will indirectly indicate your level of “pen” proficiency. | |
Here, too, the price for 1,000 characters is high - 80-100 rubles, it is possible to sell ready-made texts, as in a store window. The exchange has been around for a long time and has proven itself to be reliable and convenient. |
So, you learned a certain profession, found an order through an exchange or another way, completed it, making the client happy. The best part left is to get paid.
I will tell you what is needed for this in the next section.
This section will be especially useful for beginning freelancers.
There are two fundamentally different ways:
I personally recommend that you study at the University of Internet Professions “Netology”. This educational institution has a state license and has been successfully operating in the online education market for many years.
This is an excellent project where you will be given the most up-to-date knowledge on professions in demand today in the digital industry.
I have known this school for a long time; I know the quality of its teaching materials and the approach of its teachers to their work.
Company experts teach here Google, Mail.ru And Alfa-Bank.
Moreover, along with training, there is the opportunity to undergo an internship and get a job in popular Internet projects.
Netology has a number of free programs. For example, you will learn website layout thanks to course on the basics of HTML and CSS.
Main areas of study:
I have been following this project for several years now and often watch its training lessons myself.
Be sure to watch the video - a virtual walk around the Netology Group office:
Become a Netology student, get training and join the number of free freelancers.
Evgeniy Bobyshev, consultant in the field of public procurement, co-founder of the ABC of Tenders school
He worked in the field of industrial design for about 10 years as a technical director. For the last 5 years, in parallel with my main work, I have been developing two online projects on the Internet. In August 2016, I decided to finally quit my hired job and devote myself entirely to Internet projects. More than 2 years of working for yourself – the flight is normal! As Bill Gates once said, if you are not on the Internet, you are not in business!
Denis Kuderin, editor-in-chief of popular Internet sites, copywriter
I have been earning money as a freelancer for more than 5 years. I started as an author of articles, and now I hold the position of editor-in-chief in several Internet projects. I don’t go to the office, I don’t get up on an alarm clock, I decide for myself how long my working day will be and when I have a day off.
The Internet provides hundreds of options for those who decide to independently manage their time and intellectual resources. At the same time, there are no upper limits for earnings - only you determine how much your services cost and choose those with whom you want to work. Same with self-development - if you want to be more in demand, develop new skills, learn to do better, more and more interesting things than others. And then clients will find you themselves.
Eduard Stembolsky, TOP manager of the HeatherBober.ru project from 2016 to 2018, co-founder of the PAPA HELP project
My career started in 2005. Eight years of my career were spent in one of the city management companies as an accountant. Then for two years I was an IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) specialist in a large international company.
During all the time of offline activity I realized - “I no longer want to be a “mercenary” and work for pennies!” But I didn’t know what to do next. When there is a deep request, fate sends an answer - friends offered to work in the online project “HeatBober.ru”. After which, Alexander (the author of this article) and I opened a joint online project “PAPA HELPED”.
Dmitry Shaposhnikov, TOP manager of the HiterBober.ru project from 2016 to 2018, entrepreneur
Worked for more than 2 years in a management position in a popular Internet project. I noticed that the principles of online and offline business are very similar. Hired and fired employees, coordinated the work of the team, and handled sales remotely. I am attracted here by the flexible work schedule, creative growth and good earnings. Now I’m opening my own business, and the experience I’ve gained will definitely come in handy.
Alex Baihou, foreign language teacher, author of the website baihou.ru and a number of online educational projects for learning languages
I left my paid job several years ago. I teach languages professionally via the Internet and develop several websites to generate passive income. After leaving work, one incident happened to me. One day in the summer, in the middle of the day, I went out for a walk in the park and sat on a bench to eat ice cream.
It was about 12 o'clock in the afternoon, at this time all the people are working, and I felt ashamed that I was “idling.” In fact, before lunch, I had already earned money for several days ahead. This is how the realization came that you can earn decent money without leaving home, have a free schedule and freely manage your life.
Olesya Zaitseva, customer support center specialist at VimpelCom (Beeline)
I work as a call center employee on a bi-free project. Bi free means to be free. Integration of hiring and freedom from the office. Comfort, convenience, and time saving are the main advantages of remote work. But be that as it may, I really want to switch from hiring to self-employment at a minimum, and then become a full-fledged entrepreneur.
Over the years of my work on the Internet, I have been asked these exact questions dozens of times. Here I answered them “in bulk” and I am sure that now you, dear reader, will receive complete and reliable information.
Anna to work in 99% of cases no investment is required. This also applies to remote employment. If they ask you for money under various pretexts so that you just start doing certain tasks, run away from such would-be employers as quickly as possible.
Honest customers will never ask for advance payment or any other type of compensation for providing you with work.
On the contrary, it is you who will receive money for investing your creative, physical and intellectual efforts in solving the problem. Therefore, never transfer money to anyone under any pretext.
Now let’s figure out what is included in that rare 1% of cases when you still have to pay money to “get” a job.
The only time you may be asked to spend money is on improving the technical equipment of your workplace (buying a more powerful computer or new software).
The employer may also tell you that they cannot hire you yet because your qualification level is insufficient. You may be asked to undergo training to improve your professional skills.
Under no circumstances can the customer (employer) himself be involved in your expenses. That is, you can purchase any software or a new, more powerful computer anywhere, or take any courses of your choice.
Roman, you can work remotely without any special skills, just by owning a computer. But then your income level will be significantly lower. Also, the range of tasks that you can take on will be greatly reduced.
For comparison, if you professionally “draw” on a computer or write texts, you will be able to receive from 100 to 500 rubles per hour. Having “general computer” skills (without qualifications), your income will not exceed 50-100 rubles for the same time.
Conclusion: to earn more and be in demand as a specialist, you must take one direction and choose a specialization in it.
Then more valuable clients will come to you. And since you don’t spread yourself thin, you will know your business perfectly well. At the same time, the image of your specialization will work for you. All your friends, acquaintances and satisfied customers will know that “Vasya” is a good specialist in such and such a field.
Ivan, in order to receive payment every day on the Internet, you will have to fulfill inexpensive “last minute” orders. You can receive payment the very next day for the following types of tasks:
After completing such tasks, you will receive payment almost immediately: from a few minutes to several hours (up to a maximum of 2-3 days). This is very reminiscent of doing unskilled work in real life: washing someone’s car, unloading a carriage, working a shift as a waiter in a cafe with an hourly daily pay. They don't pay very much for this, but they pay quickly.
Daria, the first rule is not to send your money to anyone under any pretext.
Golden Rule
YOU are paid for the work, not you are paid for the opportunity to get it.
The Internet scam has already set teeth on edge, offering job seekers a job collecting fountain pens. You buy parts: rods, bodies, caps, plugs, and so on, at a price of, for example, 5 rubles per set, and they promise to buy ready-made pens for 10-15 rubles.
Naturally, after purchasing a set for 3, 5, 10 thousand rubles, enterprising “employers” disappear without a trace, and the naive applicant is left “without a trace.”
In the best case, they will actually send you the parts and may even buy a trial batch of the assembled product in order to cheat you into a larger investment.
Second rule
Find out everything about the future customer, especially if you plan to work with him constantly.
If this is a company, collect information about it from open sources, read reviews on the Internet of its former employees. Only after a thorough check should you begin to cooperate.
How to protect yourself as much as possible - it is best to work with clients through a secure transaction on popular exchanges for remote workers, for example on fl.ru
The essence of a secure transaction is that the customer and the contractor are guaranteed a successful outcome of their cooperation. The customer enters money into the system on the website, and it is “frozen” there until the contractor fulfills his obligations. If you, as an employee, have completed the order in full, then the contractor’s “frozen” money will be transferred to you, and he will definitely not cheat you.
And if you, as a contractor, did not fulfill your obligations or placed an order of poor quality, the money will be unfrozen and returned to the customer. This way the latter insures himself against dishonesty on your part.
Inna, right after college you can apply for any online job if your professional skills and knowledge are suitable for it.
It doesn’t even depend so much on the specialty you received, but on the real value (skills) for which you will be paid here and now.
For example
If you studied to become a psychologist and during your studies acquired real skills in your specialty, engage in psychological counseling on Skype.
Perhaps you graduated from a university with a degree in design or journalism. Then becoming a designer or copywriter remotely will not be difficult for you.
Whatever Internet profession you choose, there are certain universal requirements:
Ruslan, first, create accounts on popular copywriting exchanges, for example, text ru or contentmonster. Offer your services on these exchanges as a rewriter, practice. Along the way, find several texts on the Internet and make 2-3 rewrites for each. This is how you get your first experience.
Notify your friends and acquaintances that you have decided to start writing texts. At first, complete several free orders for reviews and recommendations.
Once you hone your skills as a rewriter, take up copywriting. It costs several times more.
Inna, first, you need to decide on the direction of your activity. This can be understood based on 3 main criteria:
Vladimir, yes, working on the Internet has its disadvantages, or rather, its peculiarities. The first feature is you need to be able to motivate yourself . At a regular job, the system does this for you: the employer, a clear schedule, clear tasks for the day.
At home, there is a temptation to relax, be lazy and perform tasks chaotically, without planning anything. This will sooner or later lead you to collapse.
Another feature is multitasking . You must be a jack of all trades, combining the responsibilities of a salesperson, marketer, executive, director, accountant, and system administrator.
Most people are accustomed to performing only one function at work and getting paid for it.
And the third feature - lack of live communication . Often a person goes to work not only to earn income, but also to communicate. This is especially true for women. The “home office” mode is not suitable for pronounced extroverts and those who are used to being visible most of the time or participating in events.
Anton, if you work in a large company under an employment contract, then there are practically no differences. You undergo an interview, sign documents and are enrolled in the company’s staff as an official remote employee. You provide your payment details and receive wages, bonuses and other payments in accordance with the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.
The money comes to your card, the purpose of the payment indicates that this is a salary from such and such an employer.
Things are a little different if you work for yourself as a self-employed professional. First, you will need to register several electronic wallets to accept payments, necessarily WebMoney and Yandex.Money. It is also good to have 2-3 plastic cards from different banks.
As your income increases, you will need a current account and registration as an individual entrepreneur. Then you will completely calmly enter into an agreement and accept money. Yes, you will now have to pay taxes as an entrepreneur. But don't be afraid, they make up only 6% from your income under a simplified taxation system.
When working with individuals (accepting payments from them to your electronic wallets), you will need a cash register (online cash register).
This applies to formalizing relationships with customers and accepting payments.
You will also need a marketing strategy to attract customers. It’s good to use all advertising channels here: personal connections, accounts on remote work exchanges. Over time, you can create your own promotional website.
The more actively you declare yourself, the faster clients will contact you based on recommendations from past satisfied customers.
Inga, by law you can enter into an official employment contract with your employer and work remotely from your home or from anywhere in the world.
In 2013, amendments were adopted to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, according to which remote employees received official status on an equal basis with regular employees. That is, you retain all the usual social guarantees: pension, length of service, vacation, sick leave, and so on.
Talk to your employer, and if he doesn’t mind, then you will join the community of remote workers in the very near future.
Working on the Internet is available to anyone whose activities are related to information. The main thing is desire, because you can learn any Internet profession in a few months at most, and start earning money comparable to the salary in your city, without leaving home.
If you devote several years to this direction and awaken healthy ambitions in yourself, you can radically change your life. Tested for yourself!
It doesn't matter how old you are or what you did before. The Internet and new technologies are changing the world, new professions are appearing, old ones are dying.
According to recent studies, those specialties that were taught in universities a few years ago are either becoming obsolete or are being transformed into new ones. But the fact is that now not a single specialist is considered such if he is not comfortable with the computer, the Internet, marketing and other modern areas of business communication.
It doesn’t matter whether you plan to work for hire, become a self-employed specialist or open your own business. Without knowledge and skills in the IT industry, you will not advance far.
Now even experienced craftsmen who are far from computer technologies need to actively study them. After all, competition in all areas is only growing. And the more competent you are in different areas, the more valuable you are in the market and the higher your income.
In addition, working on the Internet is very prestigious, convenient and, most importantly, promising. This direction will only develop in the coming decades. It is worth looking at the leading and most valuable companies in the world: Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple. Their activities are related to information technology and Internet marketing. These companies earn billions of dollars a year, and their founders are the richest people in the world.
Moreover, now many successful companies are willing to cooperate with freelancers.
Take the first step, and I assure you, you will not regret it! Who knows, maybe in a few years you are destined to become an Internet millionaire, whose name will be known throughout the world.
PS. Dear friend, have you ever wanted to work on the Internet, maybe someone you know is making progress in this direction? Share your opinions in the comments under the articles, ask questions, and I will definitely answer them.
With respect and faith in your success,
founder of the online business magazine “PAPA HELPED”, (5 ratings, average: 5,00 out of 5)
