Top Sites For Making Money From Home

1) Elance
Elance is the best freelancing website without
a doubt. It is a U.K based website that started
in 1998. Not only is it the oldest and most
popular, but is also the most highly paying
website. Contractors are looking for their
work to be done professionally, and they'll
pay good money for it. No matter what sort
of freelance work you're looking for, you'll
most probably find it here. There are more
than 1.5 million contractors registered with
Elance! And they post more than 60k jobs per
month!
So many job options, and Elance's reliability
and surety of payment via various methods
verily make it the best freelancing website in
the world! Elance does not charge you
anything for signing up. But there is a paid
package that unlocks many privileges for you.
But my advice is, get a free membership, and
work your way into the premium one.

2) oDesk
oDesk is number two only because it isn't just
as well known as Elance. But I don't think
that's fair to the site. Quality-wise, it is one
of the best websites. You can look for any
sort of work at oDesk. I personally have some
writing job experience at oDesk, and it was
amazing. I was a beginner, and I didn't know
my way around. oDesk made it so easy for
me. And I got picked for the job so easily
that I was amazed.
oDesk has all the features that Elance has.
But there's got to be a reason why it isn't
number one itself, right? Well, there is one.
oDesk is slightly lower paid than Elance.
Average rates for the same kind of jobs are
lower on oDesk than on Elance, but still
higher than many other websites. It's a slight
difference though. Apart from that, oDesk is
great. Indeed a must try for beginners.

3) Freelancer
Like Elance, Freelancer is also one of the
oldest freelancing platforms. It is very
popular, and has more than 3.6 million users!
And it has a total job count of more than 1.6
million! It is a good paying website, with
most of the Elance and oDesk features. It has
some of the best payment options, which is
useful for people who don't have PayPal
access in their country.

4) ScriptLance
Now here's an underdog that's made its way
into the top 5. And rightly so! Compared to
Elance, it's a very small platform. But it is
dedicated to the Programming and IT field. So
if you are looking for coding or other
computer-related jobs, then this might be the
thing for you! The fact that this is a small
website makes it easier for you to get a job!
ScriptLance charge only a 5% on all your
earnings, which is the lowest by far! Plus,
there's no sign up or registration fee. Better
yet, it has an affiliate program that gives you
bonuses whenever one of your friends join
the site through you.

5) Fiverr (Details)
Fiverr is a different sort of Freelancing
website. For one, it's the workers who post
jobs they are willing to do, and not the hirers
posting what they want done. For another,
jobs can only cost $5, one dollar from which
goes to Fiverr.. Be that as it may, Fiverr is a
very unique website, probably one of its kind.
It is a micro-freelancing site, which has mini-
jobs called gigs. Workers post gigs they are
willing to do. Contractors then order that gig.
It is best for getting your freelancing career
started. Not only will you find professional
jobs here, you will also find some of the most
ridiculous jobs and skids you ever saw in your
life! It's a must try website, especially for
beginners. So get ready to be amazed by
Fiverr!

6) Guru
I think the name speaks for itself here. Guru
really is a freelancing platform guru. It is also
one of the most popular freelancing websites
like Elance or oDesk. And it has many similar
features. The only downside though, is that if
you have a free account with them, then you
get a very limited number of bids you can use
per month. Kind of a mood killer for such a
big website. But overall, it is a very good
website. You can always try out other sites
while working on this one. So sign up now
and utilize your bids!

7) vWorker
vWorker is another very reputable freelancing
website. It is best known for its highly
scrutinized screening process, which ensures
that you only get jobs relevant to your own
skills. This saves a lot of time and effort, and
if you want to hire, it will provide you with
highly relevant people who can do the job
well. A must try for all freelancers.

8) 99designs
This is a design-oriented freelancing website.
Contractors post design contests of various
types, such as logo designing, page designing
etc. Freelancers need to submit their designs.
The best design wins the contest, and bags a
lot of money. This is sort of time consuming,
and a bit risky especially for new freelancers.
But if you are a good artist, and if you have
the potential, then you can walk off with lots
of money in your pocket. Interested?

9) GetAcoder
As the name suggests, this website is related
to programming, web development, and other
IT related jobs. This is one of the oldest such
websites. It has thousands of active
contractors. So if you are into programming
and such stuff, then this might be the thing
for you. It pays really well too.

10) crowdSPRING
This website is very similar to 99 Designs. It
works in a similar way too. But it pays more!
Only problem though, is it is somewhat hard
to get selected because there is a lot of
competition. Still, it made it to out top 10
list.
