What’s The Best Free Typing or Data Entry Company?
Please for goodness sake, stop badgering me with that question already, Jeez! Just kidding folks. You know I love your questions. But seriously, despite my best effort to introduce you to the ‘finer things” in life via other non-typing and data entry work at home opportunities. You guys are still persistently asking for the least available work at home jobs on the planet, data entry and typing!
Many of my loyal subscribers know how I feel about these jobs. I don’t like them because so many of you have been scammed because you’ve limited yourself to them. Furthermore scam artist prey on work at home seekers that look for these jobs because they know people are so desperate to find them and aren’t willing to act on other opportunities that can make them more money. Finally, I hate to sound like a “Negative Nancy”, but there isn’t a lot of availability of these jobs unless you’re willing to make them for yourself like I did or to explore another version of them which I will cover below. With that said I’ve done my best to provide you with the few available typing and data entry jobs by listing them at our work at home companies page.
And recently I posted a great in depth interview from a successful work at home professional who is a Virtual Assistant that makes money at home typing and doing other things. But alas, I still don’t think that’s enough information. You know I like to over-deliver. So I tore myself away from playing the Nintendo Wii with my lovely, waddling wife (Sorry babe for beating you in bowling in your condition. lol.) and have taken the time to create a video just for you. The video provides you with my best typing work at home opportunity. Some of you may have already heard me talk about this work at home career in my comments on the articles of this blog. Either way I think you’ll find this video very helpful in finding legitimate, free and more importantly AVAILABLE typing jobs!
Now that you watched the video, what are you going to do? Are you going to continue to do what you’ve been doing which has lead to nothing or scams and job at home? Or are you going to take action?
Are Medical Transcription (Typing) Jobs Actually Available & Where Can I Find Them?
Yes they are in great numbers as I demonstrated in the video above. But take a look yourself by clicking on the following link: Medical transcription (typing) jobs
Can You Really Make Money At Home As A Medical Transcriptionist (Typist)? I understand your skepticism but you don’t need to take my word for it. Click on the links below to read from your follow loyal subscribers who took action on my advice and work at home as medical transcriptionist. They knew that chasing after generic typing and data entry jobs was a waste of time and went with a sure thing. Brenda Lynn Jacqueline
So How Do I Get Started With Medical Transcription?
Step 1: Get Training! I know that you think your current typing and data entry skills are the bomb! But trust me when I say medical transcription companies will not hire you without some form of training. So don’t even waste their time or yours applying without exploring one or more of the training options. I searched high and low to find some that were affordable for you or offered financial aid. So take advantage of them. Visit one or more of the following websites for affordable training options.
- Medical Transcription At Home
- Inside Medical Transcription
- Virtual Learning Center (Highly Recommend Because of Job Placement For Graduates!)
- Medical Training Programs
Step 2: After you’ve been trained, visit our Medical transcription (typing) jobs section at WorkAtHomeCareers.com and start applying. For those of you that train with the Virtual Learning Center they will also provide you with job placement assistance.
Questions About Medical Transcriptionist (Typist)?
1. Yes there are many available Medical Transcription work at home careers available but most want at least a year or more experience. So how can I get a job if no one will hire me without experience? That’s a great question and valid concern. I was able to find a training company that provides you all the necessary Medical Transcription training you need and provides job placement services to successful graduates. Apparently the Virtual Learning Center has relationships with certain Medical Transcription companies that are willing to hire their successful graduates without experience! So there you have it, you will have access to companies that will hire you just for being a successful graduate of the Virtual Learning Center. Their job placement center also provides assistance in terms of your resume and revealing to you how to start your own business if that’s something of interest to you. So they really go beyond what many of the distance learning companies provide.
2. I just don’t have the money it takes to invest in myself and medical transcription training. What can I do? This question really hits home because I’ve been in the same situation. Unlike college where I was able to get financial aid, many of these home based training programs don’t provide this. But to my surprise the Virtual Learning Center addresses this and provides its students financial aid & flexible payment arrangements so that whatever your budget is, they will help you get the training you need to start your work at home career as a medical transcriptionist. It’s obvious that they understand the plight of the work at home seeker and are not just some company that’s about making money. You can also go to your local community colleges to see if they offer any medical transcription courses and financial aid. Chances are if you can’t afford to buy the training on your own, you’ll qualify for financial aid.
3. I have years of experience with typing and data entry, why do i need to invest in medical transcription training? Well with all due respect, your years of generic typing and data entry skills aren’t a commodity in this job market anymore. Why? Please consider the fact that everyone uses a computer now, this means that they can probably type just as well as you. 10-30 years ago typist were an asset because it was just the opposite. Most people didn’t have computers nor the need to type. So when typing needed to be done, companies scrambled to get a highly skilled typist like yourself because it was such a specialized skill. So that’s the reality of your skill set. But with that said medical transcription is still a specialized skill so there is still a great demand for those professionals. I may know how to type well but I definitely don’t have the skills involved in medical typing. So that’s why we encourage people like yourself to get specialized in Medical Transcription. Your years of generic typing skills coupled with your newly acquired Medical transcription skills will truly make you an asset to a company.
What Are You Going To Do Now?
In any event, I hope this addresses the questions, objections and concerns that many of you have expressed or were quietly thinking. I really hope that I have brought home the point that chasing after fantasy generic typing and data entry jobs is illogical when you understand the reality of our computerized world and the fact that now nearly everyone can type pretty well. So with that said, if you’re dead set on doing nothing more than typing, then now you know how to achieve this. But don’t make the mistake of continuing to spend hours and hours searching job boards for generic typing jobs. This will lead to a number of things; frustration, desperation and possibly being scammed or mislead by info products. So save yourself the trouble and go after something that is actually available. Now if for some reason despite all the options I’ve provided to you, you’ve decided that you’re not going to pursue a career in medical transcription, than you may want to look in to a non traditional way of typing at home.
Please note that this work at home opportunity isn’t a traditional typing at home job. Furthermore, it won’t make you anywhere near the salary that Medical Transcription can provide. But it will make you some money and can be started now and with no specialized training. But don’t expect to support your family with it. So you’ve been forewarned. Check out a non traditional way to make money typing at home by clicking here. Good luck either way!

ReplyI am looking for 2nd job, that I can do at home because I am a single mother and with the cost of living going up need to find something I can do during the evening hours to suppliment current income to “make it”. I don’t need training or career counseling just need evening work.
ReplyHi Laurie,
I’m not sure if you read the article above, but that’s where a lot of people go wrong. They think they don’t need career training.
If that’s really the case, just visit our companies page www.workathomenoscams.com/work-from-home-companies/ and apply to the jobs listed there.
If you land a job right away then you’re right you don’t need any training. But if you find that you’re still waiting to be hired months or even a year later then it proves my point in the article above. The point was that it’s better to go after jobs that are actually available and if it means investing in yourself to get trained to get these jobs then ultimately you’ll be better off than wasting hours and hours per day waiting or searching for jobs that aren’t readily available.
People don’t go to college or training schools for nothing. There is a reason. The world has changed. If you have basic skills such as typing, data entry, it’s not enough to get employed especially in terms of working at home. The job market will make this very clear to you if you don’t believe me.
I’m not trying to be abrasive or anything. I’ve just been in this field since the early 90’s and what I’m teaching you guys on this blog is based on those years of experience. I hate seeing work at home seekers banging their heads against brick walls chasing false hope. So I’m just giving you the reality of the situation and various options to explore if you’re willing to succeed and get out your comfort zone.
So I really hope you understand this and actually take me up on my advice:
www.workathomenoscams.com/articles
I don’t want to see you become one of the many work at home seekers who end up getting frustrated and bitter and worse yet not making money at home.
Good luck to you.
Eddy

Hey Eddy. I have been surfing your site for some time for a typing job, and I finally found one. It’s not your typical typing job, It’s Medical Transcripiton. I LOVE IT!!!! I found the idea on your website. I thank you very much. It takes a lot of studying and typing the files, but I enjoy it. So when people say there isn’t any typing jobs out there, think again. Their just not thinking hard enough!!!!! Thanks for the opportunity. I will be on your site quite often now!!!!

ReplyHi im interested in what you’ve said in the article but how can I have training in medical transcription I live in Philippines.
ReplyHi Jenny,
The training companies I listed in the article above are online based so it doesn’t matter where you live because your training is delivered via the web.
Take care.
ReplyEddy
hi,
I have an intensive full-time job but because my ex-husband left me financially destroyed; I need a part-time job I can do late evenings and weekends. Online, at home would be ideal with my intensive work schedule. Like Laurie, I do not need extra training. (I respect what Eddy says about education where she said, “People don’t go to college or training schools for nothing. There is a reason.” I already have a degree, 2 to be precise. Granted I know people with much less education/training than I that make more money, of course I choose to help people and because of my chosen profession I get paid less. Sad but true.)
I just need an at home position that I can work around my hectic full-time schedule so I can rebuild my life after being destroyed by my scary ex-husband.
ReplyAny help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks bunches.
Hi Chelle,
I’m sorry to hear about your situation with your husband. It’s amazing how another person can make you pay for their mistakes.
In any event, let’s be solution oriented, have you read our articles section:
www.workathomenoscams.com/articles
We have a list of our recommendations listed there.
You may also want to read our ask section:
www.workathomenoscams.com/ask
Since you have a full time job already, I would strongly encourage you to look into a career as an affiliate: www.workathomenoscams.com/aff
I did this career part time before I finally freed myself from the 9-5 nonsense:
www.workathomenoscams.com/freedom
So it may be perfect for you as well.
If not then the other recommendation on my article page may be for you.
Good luck either way.

ReplyI am still skeptical. I am a sick woman I am on disabity. And i do not trust paypal are thier any legitmate jobs that pay you by check?
ReplyHi Barbara,
I’m not really sure what you’re skeptical about with this career. The numbers don’t lie, there are way more available Medical Transcriptionist jobs then there are generic typing/data entry jobs. Its really that simple.
In any event,
Have you visited the following page:
www.workathomenoscams.com/2008/01/23/work-at-home-for-disabled/
By the way, most companies pay by paypal since its convenient for most people. I’ve had a paypal account for years and never had a problem. Like any company they have had their ups and down. But since their merger with ebay.com things seemed to have improved a lot.
But with that said, many companies still offer checks. If you want our personal recommendations for work at home opportunities visit:

Good luck, either way.

P.S. It’s an easy to avoid scams by following the advice in our scam video:
Replywww.workathomenoscams.com/scams and reading about common scams listed there.
I want to do medical transcriptions and I have the education. Before my daughter was diagnosed with leukemia last year I was in school to work in the medical field and have the education in transcription. But as a single mother and being busy with my daughters care I was not able to finish my training and just have no experiance IN the field. How do I get a job when everyone want someone with at least 2 years experience????
ReplyHi Chrystal,
You may want to contact the training company I listed in the article above since they know of companies that hire folks without experience.
Hope this helps.

ReplyHi Gwen,
Thanks for the kind words.
Honestly since I’ve never been an MT. So I don’t know how long it would take. Just contact the folks at the Virtual Learning Center:
http://www.workathomenoscams.com/mt_training
I believe they have an faq.
I hope this helps.
Eddy
ReplyHi Eddy,
ReplyThank you for telling it straight and to the point of scams, and the best way to work at home is through MT.
Eddy,I became a Medical Assistant in 1980 which they taught me dictation/transcription as well and I had experience working in the Medical Fields for 10 years, and recently refresh my Medical Terminology because I was going to school for a Massage Therapist, but quit since it didn’t suit me. But then for 15 years I stop working in the medical field, and started working in business offices processing medical claims, and insurance claims.
My question is that since I had experience, and still kept my skills processing medical claims and medical terminology what should I do to get a job in Medical Transcriptions?
Veronica
Hi Veronica,
You’re quite welcome.
You seem to have a lot of relevant experience.
What I would do is update your resume and gear it towards medical transcription. Include any recent courses you’ve taken and the positions that highlight your medical terminology skills. Now with that said, most companies would still rather that you have direct experience in medical transcription for at least two years.
But considering your past, it may still be worth a shot in applying:

Good luck.
Eddy
ReplyHi Eddy, I to have just came acrossed your web site and I like it alot. Things I never knew. I use to be one of those “I want to work from home and make easy money” no such thing. I am real intrested in becoming a medical transcriptionist. Have been before I found your site. I have done some research about transcription and schools. I am also part of a forum as well. My question to you is there are two school I am thinking about one is a little bit more reasonable as payments I can afford. That one is allied business school. the other is on the AHDI site and it seems like a good one as well. Do you know anything about these school? Allied is also apart of AHDI as well. Thank you for this great site. ~Melissa~
ReplyHi Melissa,
I am happy you like the site. I am also happy you’ve realized there is no such thing as easy money from home. That’s half the battle there. In any event it’s great you’re looking into Medical Transcription. It’s a great career. I don’t really know about the schools you’ve mentioned. Just follow the steps in our scam video:
www.workathomenoscams.com/scams and it should give you some insight on these companies. Whatever company you choose, just be sure they help you with job placement.
The reason we recommend VLC www.workathomenoscams.com/mt_training is because of their job placement assistance. Most of the work at home companies that hire MT want those with experience. But with VLC www.workathomenoscams.com/mt_training they’re able to help place you with companies that hire newly trained MTs. They also have a very flexible payment plan as well. So you may want to keep that in mind as you search for training. Good luck either way. I am sure you’ll do well with this new career.
Eddy
ReplyHi Eddy,

Hi, I really dig you on this. I have been searching and spending my money on so many dead end work at home ventures till I’m ready to just arrest them all myself. LOL.
ReplyI’m glad to say though that I have been spending more time reading online training material of various fields that could lead to a person “learning what it actually takes” ; KNOWLEDGE-
You’re so right. Can you give me any info or leads on how to start a free blog. I think I’ll also need and URL for the blog too. How can I get started with my own great blog page like yours??
ReplyI have been looking for a job online that i can make some extra money that is not a scam. Do you know how much the training is, and how long for, and also how long it be till i get a decent job online?
ReplyMichelle,
Training for Medical transcription will vary depending on where you get it. The best thing to do is click on the links we mentioned in the article above or look at your local college to determine how much training may be and how long it will take.
The time it will take to land a “decent” online job will also vary. If you limit yourself to generic data entry or typing jobs chances are you won’t be landing one anytime soon. Some people spend years trying to land those. I know because I was one of them. But if you’re smart and focus on careers that are actually in demand like the ones listed on the following page:
www.workathomenoscams.com/2009/01/01/work-at-home-outlook-for-2009/
It can take a few months.
But if you’re willing to venture outside the norm and give non-traditional opportunities a try:
www.workathomenoscams.com/recommendations
You can pretty much start today.
So it all depends on you. My suggestions to folks is to get the skills that are in demand and make money with non-traditional opportunities while they do that so you have your bases covered.
Avoiding scams shouldn’t really be a concern if you absorb our scam page like a sponge:
www.workathomenoscams.com/scams
We’ve helped so many people avoid scams there and you can too if you read it and watch the video listed there.
So ultimately you have more options then you may think. Achieving work at home is about being educated about the industry so you know where to focus
your energy and where not. Hope this helps.
And by the way we have traditional jobs listed on the following pages:
www.workathomenoscams.com/companies

Good luck. If you have any other questions be sure to read our ask page top to bottom:

Hi Ranjani,
I am sorry to hear you’ve been scammed so many times. I wish you would’ve found our scam section sooner so you could have avoided this negative experience:
www.workathomenoscams.com/scams
You should be wary of investing money in work at home opportunities and you shouldn’t unless it happens to be a home based business and even then
research should be done. With that said whether you know it or not we’ve all paid for training if you went to college or any technical school. Investing in your education
is investing in yourself not some shady work at home product. So don’t fall into that generalization as it may hold you back from advancing to careers that may pay you more money.
Now with that said if you’re in a financial bind colleges offer medical transcription classes and you may qualify for financial aid. So that may be an option if you’re paranoid about spending money online. At the end of the day there are certain careers that demand training that pay well. It’s just a fact of life otherwise we’d all be doctors.
You may want try out some of the other opportunities we cover in our recommendations page that don’t involve any advanced training but don’t expect to make a huge amount of money with them:
www.workathomenoscams.com/recommendations
You can also search for traditional work at home jobs on the following page:

ReplySo basically, this site is just another involved advertisement to try to sell traiing for medical transcriptionist. What a poser. Unless the training is free, then this isnt what you advertise, is it ?
ReplyJaded36, (Appropriate name by the way. lol)
Anyone that has been on my blog for a long time is quite aware that I make my living as an affiliate of many companies & the support of sponsors listed on my site. I don’t hide this fact because I’m not ashamed of it. It’s not a dirty little secret that you’re exposing to the world. I beat you to the punch a long time ago when I wrote a very long article about it: www.workathomenoscams.com/aff The fact of the matter is 90% of websites make their living like this. Now with that said I pride myself on limiting my personal recommendations to companies that I have either personally tried or researched. I’m not in the business of pinning my established name with shady companies. I think that is evident based on the positive media coverage I’ve received over the years: www.workathomecareers.com/aboutus
With that in mind, I chose to be affiliated with the training company mentioned in the article for several reasons. One, they offer flexible payment options & aid. The other & probably biggest reason I recommended this company was that they provide job placement assistance for new MTs. As I noted in the article most companies aren’t willing to hire new MTs. But the training company I recommended has relationships with employers that will hire first time MTs. So ultimately that was my main reason for pushing this particular company & why I became an affiliate of them. If there is a company that offers free training with job placement for first time MTs, feel free to post them here. That would be great for our readers interested in this career.
The other thing to note is that I also encouraged people to check their local colleges to see if MT courses were offered and to check if they can qualify for financial aid which could make the training free as well. So as much as you would like to crucify me for earning an honest living, I do actually care about my users and try to make recommendations that will prove helpful to them. And I do my part to educate them on the real scams that are out there:
www.workathomenoscams.com/scams
Furthermore all the information I offer on this blog is free and has helped a lot of people avoid scams and find various ways of working at home:
www.workathomenoscams.com/success
www.workathomenoscams.com/workathomeguide
So I don’t think a lot of folks will object to the fact that I happen to earn a living while helping them achieve their goals without asking a dime from them in return.
In fact, I try to give back:
www.workathomenoscams.com/2008/10/28/work-at-home-500-bailout-package/
Hope this clears some of the air. I know you’ve probably visited a lot of blogs where they just recommend every little clickbank, make money, internet marketing product, scam, etc. But it’s never good to make assumption especially when you haven’t looked at the whole body of work we’ve done on this blog.
Take care.

ReplyHi Eddy:
Love your site!
As a 17-year veteran medical transcriptionist, I can tell you that being an MT involves MUCH more than just typing!!! We are medical language specialists. When I attended school (way back in the dark ages) I learned 2500 medical terms in eight weeks. That was just the beginning. Now I absolutely love the field and have been blessed to go from working in an office for 10 years to being self-employed for the past seven. But it has not been easy to work at home, even with all my training and knowledge. I am being honest here. There are so many skills that have to be developed to their highest level in order for it to pay off when working at home because pay is production based, usually a fixed amount (anywhere from $.08 to $.15) per line. That means the more you type, the more you get paid. BUT…the work must be accurate. And listening to a doctor who is talking so fast he cannot even understand what he is saying is challenging to say the least.
Anyway, that’s my two cents. I know there is a lot of hype about it on the Internet. No matter what, I always encourage those who are passionate about medical transcription to go for it; that’s what I did, and I’ve never regretted that decision.
Thank you, Eddy, for a wonderful, informative website.
Mary
ReplyHi Eddy:

Hey Mary,
Thanks for the love and providing so much in sight about a career as an MT. I think it provides a lot of value coming from someone that’s been in the trenches so long. I’m sure a lot of would be MTs will find your feedback very helpful.
I’m happy you agree with me about VLC. I really do feel their biggest value is their flexible tuition and career placement help.
Take care and thanks again for chiming in.

ReplyHi Eddy,
I just came across your site today, and I can see I have A LOT of reading to do. I just wanted to take a second to thank you for making a site like this available to all of us who are new to the work-at-home world and feeling completely overwhelmed. Now, I’ve got my cup of tea and my handy dandy notebook, and I’m looking forward to spending this rainy day taking copious notes from this incredibly valuable resource.
Thanks again, have a great day!

ReplyHi AC,
You’re welcome. I understand your concern. Visit the following pages:
www.mtjobs.com
www.workathomecareers.com/workathomejobs/index.php?cat=9
You’ll notice tons of new MT jobs listed and this happens every day. So in my opinion the field is still very much a live based on the number of jobs we see every week in that field. At the end of the day however you go about getting you training, make sure they have job placement for you. Otherwise there is no guarantee that you’ll work after getting your training especially since you’ll have no work experience. That’s a major reason why I recommend VLC in the article above. They’re very flexible with payments and provide you with job placement with companies that hire first time MTs.
So keep that in mind. You can also try Amazon, they have mechancial turk program we reviewed a while back ago that can make you money typing. Read the following article:

And finally don’t limit yourself to typing. There are so many other easier ways of making money at home. People think it is the easiest and it’s just the opposite. So I encourage you to read our recommendations page where we provide so many more options for any comfort level: www.workathomenoscams.com/recommendations
Either way you have options if you’re open minded and willing to explore all your options.
ReplyHi,
ReplyI Like the idea of medical transcription, I took 2 years of training for this at my community college,, but they do not certify and I cant afford to go to another school just to get certified. so in order to get a job I need experience, but to get experience i need the job.. I have applied to so many places I lost count. most places require at a minimum one year on the job training .
Hi Charlotte,
I totally agree with you. I find it very frustrating because it’s like a catch 22. You get the training but a lot of these companies won’t hire you because you’re a newbie. So how the hell are you suppose to get the experience they’re insisting on? The college training programs tend to be more affordable because of financial aid but if your college doesn’t provide job placement then it’s useless to take the course. It’s just unfair in these particular situations.
That’s one of the main reasons why I suggested the company in the article above; flexible payment plan and job placement assistance. But it doesn’t do you much good if you’ve already got the training elsewhere. I wish I had a particular solution for you Charlotte. Have you tried looking into the amazon work at home opportunity? They have typing “jobs” there. Visit the following article for more details: www.workathomenoscams.com/2008/07/29/work-at-home-with-amazoncom/
