One of the most profitable work-from-home opportunities (especially for stay at home moms) is actually in high demand right now: online proofreading jobs.
Why? Well, I believe there are two primary reasons.
First, we’re living in a digital world and tons of high-profile bloggers and web site managers are looking for editing and proofreading help. They’re publishing articles constantly, along with managing their web site, learning new kinds of marketing, and trying to get their content out there in front of more people. Having an extra set of eyes pouring over their articles and fixing their grammar, punctuation, and so on is quite valuable in today’s day and age.
Second, there’s been a HUGE surge in self-publishing. Authors aren’t as apt to wait for a book deal from some large publishing company anymore, and they often choose to write a book themselves and self-publish it to Amazon. Amazon has made the process quite easy, with many authors making a decent bit of money selling their books online this way.
How Much Can You Make?
What’s great about doing online proofreading jobs is that you can earn a full-time income from home, doing what you love. I just read a story about a stay-at-home mom who is making $40,000/yr as a freelance proofreader. This is very possible! You can do this as a part-time side hustle or really focus your effort and make a full-time income. It’s up to you!
Let’s take a closer look at how this works.
