(UPDATE - May 2017: Sadly, the proofreading company's closing down this month. For those who applied and were successful, I hope it was a good source of income for you.) Do you feel you have a good grasp of English grammar/flow with an eye for spotting typos? Do you tend to be on the computer/internet quite a lot? Well, hello there! *waves* *schmiles* I've been doing … [Read more...]
Proofreading: $20-a-day Aim (Update)
. So, my idea a couple of weeks ago was to see if I could make $20 a day on the proofreading site I use. I did OK the first couple of days, but lost the focus/enthusiasm to make that amount per day. However, I've been able to manage $10 days easily. I wouldn't have been able to do that had I not aimed to make $20 a day, so that's cool. I now know I can go at a steady but … [Read more...]

Proofreading: I Want to Make $50 a Week. (Week 3)
. I'm not doing too bad this week. Not doing bad at all. I've made $32.56 so far. Getting close to another $10.00 cashout (I get $9.26). After that, I just need to work up to another $10.00 (and receive it by Sunday) to reach my $50 target. The way things have been going, I think I might reach it with a few days to spare. :) I think it helps that I'm a night owl as there … [Read more...]
