Goodfellow says that many students give up after their initial search for online jobs for students. Based on my experience, many students type in search terms into search engines like “data entry jobs students”, see the maddening amount of results and give up. But students who push forward and separate the wheat from the chaff are likely to find golden opportunities that their peers miss out on” notes Goodfellow.

What online jobs for students are hot in 2011? “It’s most definitely freelance writing and editing” Goodfellow proclaims. You have to remember that literally millions of web pages are added to the Internet every single day. These pages need content for them to be useful for people. Students with even a D in high school English have what it takes to succeed as a freelance writer” Goodfellow states.

Where else should young scholars low on money look for online jobs for students? The field of freelance video making and editing is growing exponentially in 2011. All you need to make videos for corporations or small business is a small camera and some imagination. There are also freelance opportunities for students on sites like Demand Studios which pay reliably by the video.”

What should students look out for when deciding on one of the many online jobs for students? “Although somewhat rare, keep an eye out for snake oil salesmen who set out to trick you into so-called opportunities like surveys and cold calling. Also, don’t be afraid to pay a bit of money up front to land your first few gigs. Although online jobs without investment are appealing, cutting corners on your search may cause you to miss out in potential money making opportunities. Consider any investment you make for online jobs for students an investment that will pay off big time once the jobs start rolling in” Goodman notes.
