Legitimate Work at Home Jobs
Are you looking for legit work-from-home jobs?
I was in the same situation and I just wanted to know what were some legitimate work-at-home jobs that paid well.
Everything I sifted through seemed too good to be true, and it was. After months of frustration I decided to reach out to people with real work from home jobs and ask them three main questions:
What do they do?
How Can Others Get Started?
How Much Do They Earn?
I asked and they answered, so I created this website to share their stories for people like me, looking for real work-from-home jobs that pay well.
Many of the people I interviewed are moms so the options on this list are definitely working at home jobs for moms. Anyone with a desire to work from home can.

6. Start a Blog

Blogging should be #1 on this list because it’s what I do and I LOVE it, but I understand it’s not for everyone.
Blogging is one of my favorite forms of passive income. I make money just for people reading my articles from ads.
When you get a nice amount of people reading your articles, it brings in a nice income. Here’s a screenshot of my earnings from the other day.

I can assure you, I did not write this article today and yet it’s making me money. I also make money by partnering with companies and becoming an “Affiliate”. You can see how I make money blogging.
Blogging takes ‘A LOT’ of work (in the beginning anyway), but it’s so rewarding if you hang in there. I probably work 10 hours per week at the most now, it really doesn’t get much better than that…BUT that’s after you’ve done the work.
You DO NOT need to be an excellent writer to become a blogger, you just write like you talk. That’s what I do.
How much can I make? I know bloggers earning between $2,000-$100,000+ per MONTH (and I’m one of them)
