Now there is a wide variety of types of remote earnings on the Internet. You can earn by blogging, copywriting, web design, individual lessons via Skype, etc. All of these activities have common strengths and weaknesses.
The main and unconditional plus of remote work via the Internet is that you are absolutely independent in your work. You decide what to do, how and when to do this work. You yourself form your work schedule and equip your workplace. You don't have to wake up and spend 8 hours every day in a stuffy office.
For residents of large cities, a significant advantage of remote work is the saving of time and money spent on getting to the place of work. In small towns where the labor market is small, networking can be the only source of decent earnings.
For freelancers working remotely, there is no need to go through interviews, show diplomas or prove their qualifications with any other documents. The main thing here is to gain experience in solving problems in your field and earn a good reputation with clients for excellent quality of work.
The disadvantage of remote earnings is that you have to start from scratch and your earnings at the beginning of such a career will be minimal. It will take a lot of effort to gain experience and build your customer base. However, over time, your income will increase significantly.
Another disadvantage is the high competition among online freelancers. Lots of people are offering their services online. It is not easy to stand out from the crowd, but it is quite possible if you regularly complete tasks with high quality and on time.
Another problem with remote earnings is the insufficient prevalence of electronic payment systems in remote corners of Russia. Money from WebMoney cannot be withdrawn through any bank branch. Fortunately, this problem is gradually being solved, and electronic money systems are becoming more and more accessible to ordinary Russians.
