Thanks to the Internet and the Internet-connecting gadgets, it is now possible for most people to access online jobs and work at home or any other venues of their choice. The virtual platform, therefore, is not just for communication or socialization for some people, but a platform to make m0ney.

Most of the people who do online jobs work for multiple clients and do different jobs. They, hence, refer to themselves as online freelancers.

Must I work for only one online company/ client in order to make money?

No. You can work for multiple companies and multiple employers.

The term ‘Freelancing’ refers to a state of existence and operation that does not confine someone to one engagement. Freelancing, therefore, allows someone to engage in as many activities/ tasks/ jobs as s/he desires without bridging any confining contracts. Online freelancers may work for clients from different part of the world as long as they can deliver completed tasks via any of the virtual platforms that the clients prefer.

Must I have an office or computer to do online jobs?

You do not have to have an office/ physical location or a computer to make money online.

Unlike with the traditional markets, where buyers and sellers had/ have to meet at a physical location/ place to trade their (in)tangible products and services, the online platform allows consumers and suppliers to meet in a virtual space, communicate, and trade their products and services. To this effect, some businesses purely run on virtual platforms, whereas some consumers/ workers acquire products or services without leaving the confines and comforts of their spaces. As long you have an internet-connecting gadget, be it a smart phone or tablet, you can do a long list of online jobs.

Is it true that I can make money if I work at home?

It is absolutely true that you can work from home and make money online

Again, unlike the traditional contractual day/night employment platforms where employees assemble at their employers’ workplaces to provide their services, online freelancing enables employees to offer their services to their employers/ clients at the comfort and convenience of their spaces.

An online freelancer can move from one virtual platform to another/ multiple platforms doing different tasks for different people/ companies. Online Freelancers, in most instances, get paid for the accomplished tasks only, and they have minimal or no additional benefits from their employers/ contractors.
