Want a Real Home Business? Try Telecommuting

By Josiah Anthony

Anyone who has looked into starting a real home business has likely come across some scams---even when the jobs sound legitimate. If you are committed to the idea of working from home and want to come as close as possible to a guaranteed income, one solution could be to telecommute for a legitimate company. But how do you find these jobs?

You won't find many in the local newspaper, so the best way to find such positions is from people who amass them for you. It is important to find an organization that screens these telecommuting job postings for you. It can be difficult even for the seasoned job hunter to weed out the good stuff from the bad. Thankfully, there are people out there doing it for you.

One such site is freelanceplus.com. The site mostly features jobs revolving around writing and graphic arts. It's a sort of one-stop shop for ads found all over the country giving leads to positions that you can do anywhere. The site takes classifieds from Craigslist.org from all over the country, making life a lot easier for the jobseeker. The site also attempts to weed out the bad apples before they get to you and rarely puts up postings of jobs that are not legitimate. The site, which is one of a few that does not charge a fee, promises nothing but job leads and it's up to the job-hunter to do the rest.

Another site for finding real work at home positions is Tjobs.com, which offers another place where you can find telecommuting jobs and apply directly to the company. Tjobs.com does charge a $15 fee to access its list, but it prominently displays the Better Business Bureau seal of approval and has hundreds of telecommuting listings for jobs as diverse as photographers to sales to web design.

Another site, also with the BBB's approval, is flexjobs.com, which promises to, "give you peace of mind that every job is hand-screened by our trained staff - no scams, only legitimate work from home and telecommuting jobs." Flexjobs, like Tjobs, charges a monthly fee of $14.95 for its services and justifies this cost because it does not take advertising for its site. The site has a wide variety of telecommuting jobs, as well as an easy-on-the-eyes website. Flexjobs was nominating by Divine Caroline, a lifestyle website, as the best career and money website on the web.

Another place to check out is Telecommute-jobs.com, which also gives leads for a fee of $39 for three months. The site says, "For every job that you see posted on our site, there are five other jobs that we have rejected. That's because we do not allow MLM scams, jobs that require a start-up fee, or any of the job types listed on the Federal Trade Commission's "work at home schemes" warning list."

None of these sites guarantee you'll get a telecommuting job---and be wary of any site that does---but they do make it easier to find the position that will work for you.
