WAHM Opportunities: What to Watch For

You know the old adage: "If it seems to good to be true, it probably is.
" This is especially true of online money-making opportunities.
There are a few key things to watch for to avoid being taken advantage of or getting yourself into a contract that isn't positive.
Never Pay for a Job If a company asks for money in any way in order for you to work for them, walk...
no, run away.
Would you pay to be hired by a local department store? Never! You should not pay for working online.
You need to watch for these opportunities as they are a fraud or are not a job opportunity at all, but a product for you to buy.
Now, with that said if you're trying to buy into a business, there may be an investment as such with a franchise opportunity.
If this isn't what you're looking for, find a job that is exactly that and requires not investment.
Check Out the Company Before you apply to any article writing job you need to know about the company offering the job.

• What are they asking for content for?
• What is their company history?

• Are they a land based business with legitimate contact information?

You can usually answer these questions by spending time on their website.
They should have an About Us or About the Company tab with information.
There should be contact information in a variety of forms including physical address, email and phone number.
Also look toward the bottom of the landing page for certifications and other stamps of quality business from professional organizations.
Check Out the Position Make sure you understand all the details of the position before you apply.

• What does it pay? How often and through what medium? (PayPal, Direct Deposit, etc.
  )
• Will you need to sign an NDA? (Non-Disclosure Agreement)
• Will you get a byline?

All the information you need should be included in the job description or available through communication with the client/company.

This helps protect you in the event of a problem with payment or other issues.
