Today we're going to take a look at 10
different online jobs that you can get
in 2023
even if you are still a high school or a
college student now you can do these
even if you aren't a student
all of the jobs that i'm going to
mention can realistically pay 15
or more an hour just really depending on
how experienced you are with these
and your attention to detail so for most
of the jobs
that i'm going to mention i would
recommend using a platform like
upwork and this is not sponsored in any
way but
with upwork you can actually look
through jobs that people have already
posted
who are actively looking for help with
their projects
you could also use something like fiverr
but i tend to find
that with fiverr it's really built more
for people looking for freelancers
rather than the other way around
upwork goes both ways and there are a
ton of different platforms out there but
that is just the one that i think is
easiest to get started with
we'll start off with the job on this
list that requires
the lowest skill level and that would be
data entry
so with the data entry this can be a
variety of different things it could be
taking someone's pdf document and
transferring it to word
it could be transferring data into an
excel spreadsheet it could even be
writing product listings or transferring
products from one online store
to another online store so typically
with data entry you don't really need
experience in anything but you will
need to have a high attention to detail
especially if you are copying over
important financial numbers or product
names things like that it usually needs
to
match exactly what the client is giving
you
so it's super important that you are
able to actually
take data and make sure that it is
exactly
the same when you are transferring it
wherever it needs to go
so even with data entry jobs i would try
to look on
somewhere like upwork first there's also
something called
amazon mechanical turk but i find that
that's really just
like a ripoff you barely make any money
off of it
people who are posting on there don't
really want to pay
for quality work so going with upwork
you're going to get a better rate and
you are going to be able to charge 15
or more it's really you set your own
rate and you charge what you want
the next job that would be good for
pretty much anyone from their early
teens to their late 20s
would be a social media manager now i
use the word
manager in the quotes because there are
a lot of courses and just
spammy looking things out there where
people are like i'll teach you to be a
social media manager for only
two thousand dollars a week and you'll
make ten thousand dollars a week no
don't do that but
you can make money managing people's
social media accounts and usually
this is going to be for an influencer
someone who's trying to become an
influencer or some sort of brand or
e-commerce store
but you could even do this for local
businesses
like different restaurants or maybe you
know like a dentist or a chiropractor
that wants to post on social media but
doesn't necessarily have time to do it
themselves
so what a social media manager does is
maybe making the post
maybe scheduling the post if there are
multiple people
involved it may be making their
schedules for when things
need to be posted and making sure that
everyone stays on track
so that the schedule is kept now this
could also be
deciding which channels they're going to
focus their attention on
like for example do they pull in the
most business through facebook or
through
instagram or maybe they're trying out
tick tock or something like that
and so you would really be the one
deciding where they're posting
what they're posting and how often
they're posting and that leads into
the third job which is social media
marketing and again
huge buzzword there are a bunch of very
questionable courses on social media
marketing
but the point is knowing how to market
is a very valuable skill and it's
something that companies are willing to
pay for
so when i'm talking about social media
marketing mostly what i'm talking about
is running ads as well as sending email
campaigns
both are huge sources of revenue for
companies
and so that is what they focus a lot of
their time and their budget on
so what you would need to learn for this
is how to run
facebook ads maybe how to run ads on
like instagram
or snapchat and then it would also be
beneficial to learn how to run
email campaigns and there are a bunch of
free platforms that you can do that on
as well as
paid platforms and once you learn one
the rest are kind of similar
so one of the free ones that you can
start out with is
mailchimp that's what a lot of companies
start out with at the very beginning or
a lot of small businesses use
and it's pretty simple it's like a drag
and drop type program
but once you learn how to send effective
emails that is something that people are
willing to pay a lot of money for
the next job is to be a freelance writer
now if you're halfway decent at writing
you for sure can make
more than 15 an hour it's really hard
to find a good writer and if you are a
good writer please
share your skills with the rest of us
this job can be especially good if you
have
any knowledge in a particular niche so
for example you could be a finance
writer you could write about online
businesses
or you could write about coaching all
three of those have picked up a lot in
popularity
so those are just the ones that came to
the top of my head with copywriting jobs
especially with the posts that you see
on upwork a lot of them are going to be
for email campaigns they'll be for
landing pages
which is like that that's the main page
that you land on when you are
going to someone's website and they're
trying to sell you a service so if
you've ever seen any of like those
coaching landing pages
or even landing pages for courses they
hire people to actually
write that sales text that is trying to
sell you
their course or their services or
whatever else they're selling
but same thing goes for that so you
don't necessarily have to have a
particular niche
but you can do copywriting specifically
for emails or specifically for landing
pages
or articles or whatever really interests
you
the next job is a virtual assistant
which if you're not
already in like kind of the online job
world you may not have heard of this
but this basically is just a general
term
for someone online that's helping you do
whatever tasks you need
virtual assistants can do a wide variety
of things
but a lot of times it will involve some
sort of customer service support
it may have to do with some of the other
jobs that i've already mentioned
like scheduling social media posts if
it's for an e-commerce brand it
may be something like keeping their
product listings up to date
uh keeping their sales pages up to date
and things like that it could also be
light data entry or really anything else
that they need help with for this one it
may be 15
an hour it may be a little bit lower and
maybe a little bit higher
it really just depends on the client and
what they need you to do
the next job is to be a video editor
which i think is a little bit more fun
than some of the others but even if you
don't have a ton
of experience editing videos if you
spend a day or two
on youtube looking up tutorials you can
definitely learn enough
to get started and this is just a really
good skill to have because so many
people
are trying to produce video content or
add that
to the content that they already produce
that there are just a ton
a ton of people who are looking for
video editors for
their youtube videos for you know their
instagram or tick tock videos
or even for their online courses so i
just think that's a good
skill in general to have but it's even
better because you can also
get paid for it and the next job kind of
down the same path
is to do graphic design so photoshop and
illustrator
are pretty much the industry standards
for what professional graphic designers
use
but there's also some free online
alternatives
like canva is one of them that lets you
make pretty good looking social media
graphics and
website graphics different size banners
and they have templates that you can
work off of too
so that's not ideal necessarily but you
can definitely get started with that the
next job that requires a little bit more
skill or at least a little bit more time
and effort on your part is a web
developer or a web designer
so for this you don't necessarily have
to know like really intense coding or
anything
if you learn how to use wordpress
squarespace
wix any of those platforms you can build
websites for people
and you can charge them for it and you
can probably make
well over 15 an hour doing it and this
is another job
where you may not currently know how to
build websites but if you
spend a week or two on youtube and just
googling things you can definitely start
out on one of those basic website
builders that's kind of a drag and drop
situation and build pretty decent
websites for people
that they will pay you more than 15 an
hour for
and then as you get more familiar with
those you can definitely move into
more complicated website builders that
people will pay you even more for
so the ninth job is to teach english
online
this has been around for a while but
especially now people are willing to pay
a little bit more to get a good online
english tutor so one popular program is
called
vip kids or vipkid through them
basically what you're doing
is you're tutoring international kids
you
are basically having basic conversations
with them in
english and teaching them simple terms
and words
and phrases and then as you move into
later levels you'll be having
full conversations with them practicing
their sentence structure and
things like that and that's something
that's pretty nice to have because it is
on your own schedule and you can open up
the time slots that you would be willing
to teach at
and if that's something that you're
interested in i think there's like a
whole
english teaching side of youtube where
people have a lot of fun making like
different props and stuff for their
classes so definitely
go search for that stuff if teaching
english online is something that you're
interested in
and the last job is translation which of
course will not be applicable to
everyone but
if you were lucky enough to grow up in a
bilingual household
or you were lucky enough to go to a
school that actually put time
into teaching you a language then
translation can be
something that people are willing to pay
actually a pretty good amount of money
for especially
if you are completely fluent in two
different languages
and you're able to translate things like
medical documents or
legal documents but it doesn't
necessarily have to be that complex
i know that a lot of people will pay to
have their ebooks or
their courses translated into other
languages
so those are options as well so
hopefully this gave you a few ideas of
jobs that you can start looking into
