Editor’s note: This article was first published in September 2010. The pay rates it cites (from 0.30 to 6.50 euros per article), the most requested job types and the remark that Spanish-language offers were a growing minority all describe oDesk in 2010.
oDesk is a website that lists online job offers from companies looking for teleworkers. It is the first site to include some Spanish-language offers; they are still a minority, but a growing one.
oDesk says the number of companies looking to outsource services to virtual workers has grown considerably. The offers are varied, although there should be more of them.
For now, the most requested telework jobs on oDesk are programmers, translators, web design and writing articles for websites and blogs. Some companies pay €0.30 per article, while others that want a more professional piece pay up to €6.50 each.
If you speak perfect English, your chances of finding tasks to earn money multiply. Once the work is done, getting paid is no problem, and registration is free, at last.
