- Hey, Angie Nelson from theworkathomewife.com.
Today we're going to be talking about
one of the most favorite work at home jobs
among the members of my community,
and that is search engine evaluation.
Now, many of my followers have told me
just how much they love these positions,
and how it meets the requirements
that many of them are looking for.
And that is what we're going to be
talking about in today's video.
Make sure you stay to the end of the video
to find out how you can learn more about
the companies that we're speaking about today,
in addition to some others.
Now, your first question may obviously be
what is a search engine evaluator and what do they do?
Well, if you've done any kind of
extensive research on the internet,
you have probably found out
that Google doesn't always get it right.
Usually, when you do some kind of a search online
the results that you're given are going to be determined
by a computer, by what Google calls an algorithm.
But what's missing there is the human aspect.
Robots aren't always so good at interpreting
or determining what we're actually looking for.
And that's where these
search engine evaluators come into play.
They can actually tell Google, Google will give them a list
of the searches that they want to know about,
and these evaluators can go in
and actually tell them whether
the results that they're being provided are relevant
and whether they're quality results.
Now, there are quite a few things
that the people within my community love about these jobs.
The first one is going to be that it's really flexible.
In most cases, you are going to be able
to do the work whenever and wherever you want.
You don't need to be tied down to any specific schedule.
So this can be a great one for those of you
that need to, kind of, pick up work on the go
or as you can around your kids' schedules
or another work at home opportunity
that you already have in place.
It's also going to be non-phone work.
For most of these positions,
you are simply going to be doing the work online.
You aren't going to need any special equipment,
and you're not going to need to be on the phone
in order to complete your jobs.
So no customer service involved here.
These jobs also don't pay too bad, either.
In most cases, the reported earnings
are around $12 to $15 per hour.
Now, with all these pros,
there're obviously going to be some cons as well.
In most cases, these are going to be project-based jobs,
which means that, sooner or later,
they're going to come to an end.
You may also find, with some projects,
that your hours are limited.
We have heard stories of some projects
only allowing the evaluators to work one hour per day.
And when that contract comes to an end,
you may have a wait time until the next project starts up.
Therefore, this is not going to be one
that you can necessarily depend on for a steady paycheck
or even to pay your bills,
but it is nice side gig to have in place.
Now, another thing you are going to have to be aware of
is that most of these companies
have a non-compete clause in place.
Now, that means that you can't be working for more than
one of these search evaluation companies at one time.
And they are going to know it
because most of them are using the same software,
so they are going to be able to find out
pretty quickly if you're working for more than one of them.
And that's not something that you want to jeopardize
because once you get fired from one,
you're probably not going to be
hired by any of the others, either.
So make sure you're reading your contract
and you're following the rules.
Now, there are a handful of companies
that hire at-home workers to check search engine results.
Now, Appen usually requires a commitment
of four to five days per week,
and usually Monday through Friday.
And there's usually a lot of flexibility
in the times that are available.
Now, Leapforce and Lionbridge
are two others in this industry
that you'll want to check out to see
if any job listings are available for any of these.
As I said before, there may be
a non-compete clause in place,
so you're only going to able
to get hired for one of them at a time,
and most of these are going to pay only once a month.
So that's another thing to keep in mind
if you are someone who needs a regular, steady paycheck.
This one is going to be a little drawn than most,
so you will want to have something in between
to kind of get you through the month
if you can't really go 30 days between paychecks.
Now, iSoftStone is another one that hires
at-home evaluators, though they aren't quite hiring
as frequently as some of the others that we do see.
With this one, they are longer term positions,
and this company usually works
with Bing as opposed to Google.
Now, several of these companies do hire internationally
if you are viewing this video
and you're not based in the US,
this may still be an opportunity that's available to you.
But as for the purposes of my videos,
I'm based in the US, so most of the job positions
that I am talking about in my videos
are going to be available to US residents as well.
Now, while we are talking about
search engine evaluation in this video,
these companies usually hire
for some other positions as well.
You may be finding some positions
for ad evaluation, social media evaluation.
A couple of these may also hire
for things like transcription,
so, even if you aren't finding
the search engine positions available,
you may find some other great positions
that are available to you at the time that you're looking.
And as I said at the beginning of the video,
most of the members of my community
that are offering feedback on these positions
is that they really enjoy them.
A lot of my readers have said
that they are been with these companies
for several years now,
and they've never had any problems with pay
or with any of their work.
It's really a good gig to have in place,
even if it's not steady and available year round.
But that brings us back to one of
the most important roles in working from home,
and that's never put all of your eggs in one basket.
It is always a good idea to have
a lot of little flexible gigs in place
that can fill in the blanks when
one of your bigger gigs does go offline
or maybe work isn't available.
That is something that we run into
a lot in the work at home world.
You may run into a lot of feast
and famine cycles in your workload,
so it is good to always have
a couple of these little flexible gigs in place.
Now, I'm going to leave you a link
in the description below to a blog post
that's going to talk more about these positions,
and also some links to the gigs
that we talked about today.
