The Advantages and Disadvantages of Earning Online from Home

By eileen | Nov 16, 2009 | Views: 119 | 6 Comments | Rating: 3

Like in any type of job or career there are advantages and disadvantages. Therefore you need to consider all the facts and decide before you start if this is the way to earn money for you. Earning money by working from home online is not simple.

Advantages

You will be independent and working for yourself, and hours that suit you. You choose to work while the kids are at school or late at night when the house is quiet.

No bosses, to hound you, when you missed the bus.

No more setting the alarm chasing the bus, or driving around trying to find a parking bay a mile away from the office.

Think of those savings, with no exorbitant fuel or bus fares to pay.

It takes hard work and long hours, to build your earnings.

You choose when you want to work and who for.

If you write good articles for people like: Info barrel, Hubpages, Helium and many more, you will start earning money, while you sleep. Now that’s a great advantage.

Disadvantages

No work, No Pay. That is the hardest part to accept when you first start. No sick pay.

You need to set goals and achieve them.

You will need to discourage visitors popping in for coffee, when they learn you are working from home.

There will be no company superannuation benefits to fall back on, and you have to pay your own tax.

Do not give up your day job

Before you tell your boss where to go, you need to study all the facts. Decide whether you want to be a freelance writer or write articles anywhere. Many people make good money freelancing. It takes dedication and hard work, before you start earning enough to pay the bills.

Writing Articles on the Internet

This is a good place to start, while you still have a job. Learn the ropes and gain experience from others doing the same. Learn from them. Ask questions in the forums. Pick their brains. Be courteous, read their articles and leave comments, hopefully they will do the same for you.

Very nice article. Passive income, from sites like this, or other avenues don't offer sick pay, but you continue to earn from work done on previous days.

So true! May I suggest checking other sites to write for as well. I started on eHow, and joined infobarrel at a friend's suggestion. Still learning! Since you live in Australia, check my new business website: mxi.myvoffice.com/chocolateme Xocai is already in 17 countries, and Australia is one of them. You can write to me through eHow. Hope you like some of my articles.
