How Do I Know If a Data Entry Site Is Really Genuine?

There are many data entry websites out there. If you just do a basic search on the web for data entry you will find literally hundreds of thousands of websites. This makes it very difficult to know which ones are scams and which ones are legit. Especially if one is not experienced in this field or is a newbie to the internet.

Data entry can be a very lucrative business if you find the right program. A good program will have a good support team and training program along with easy to follow directions and up to date information. If one doesn't have this though, this doesn't necessarily mean it's a scam.

There are several different ways to spot a data entry scam so I have listed a few good ways below.

1. If a website does not have some type of contact form on the site, phone number or an email to where they could be contacted this is definitely not a good sign and I would look elsewhere.

2. If a website has been online for a short period of time or less then a year I wold be a little weary. A good company should be online for at least 2 years. Scam artists usually have fly by night websites that don't last too long so they can cover their tracks so this is something to think about.

3. Run a simple Google search for the company and see what comes up. If they have had a lot of complaints against them in the past it will definitely show up there.

4. If the website promises riches or fast wealth in a fast amount of time then I would be weary. Check to see if they have a disclaimer. A good disclaimer will not promise any amount of riches because it is against the law to do so that means they are following the FTC guidelines and that is a good sign.

These are just a few ways to spot a scam but these 4 things can be very helpful.
