Top 7 Online Jobs to earn $15/hr or More (for Students in 2021)
Hey I am Ahsan today we're going to take a look at 10
different online jobs that you can get in 2021 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 dollars or
more an hour just really depending on how experienced you are with these and
your attention to detail.
UPWORK
So, for most of the jobs that I’m going to
mention I would recommend using a platform like up work 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 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 high attention to
detail especially if you are copying over important financial numbers or
product names things like that usually need to match exactly what the client is
giving you so it's super important that you can 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 rip-off 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.
SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER
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 spam 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.
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 may be scheduling the post if there are multiple
people involved 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 deciding where
they're posting what they're posting and how often they're posting.
SOCIAL
MEDIA MARKETING
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 mail chimp that's what a lot of companies start out
with at the very beginning of 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 are something that people are willing to pay a lot of
money.
FREELANCE
WRITER
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 dollar 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'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 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 the 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.
VIRTUAL ASSISTANT
The next job is as 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 or 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.
VIDEO EDITOR
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 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.
TEACH ENGLISH
so
the seventh and the last job is to teach English online this has been around
for a while but especially now people are
willing to pay a little a 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 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 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.
Hope you will learn a lot of positive things from this article.
GOOD LUCK!
