Back in the days, when I was doing transcription online, it was difficult because you would have to spend hours figuring out one line of a bad accent. Now, it is easier. There are transcription tools that can help make the work easier.

Transcription is not easy. It is a very demanding job, therefore, it is very rare to see someone working on a transcription job for a long time.

That's just it, the best way to make good money online is having professional skills that you can work with. Transcription jobs are good but it requires you having skills in this to do so.

The Job pays decently depending on the site that you work for. I have had a friend of mine on my lot that used to cash out hundreds of dollars in a week doing transcribing jobs with a better company

I agree with you. I do have a skill to be a medical transciptionist, since I am in the medical field. However, I am not good at typing. My typing speed is below the average. So, I dropped the idea of working in this kind of job.

I tried out transcription jobs when I was desperately looking for something to do and earn online. It simply didn't work for me.
I am glad that you were able to work with this kind of job. I must say that I wanted to try, but cannot find a legit one. Although I prefer to try being a medical transciptionist.

Transcription is one of the difficult tasks to earn online. I think it is the most difficult for me. Some accents can be really very hard to discern talkless of master.

Transcription is actually a very good way to make money online but you need to find a good website to maximize profit. The level of competition on some websites is high.

I agree with you. There are some audio files that are not clear. It means it will take a lot of time to figure it out the complete transciption of them.

With the use of apps like otter, one can easily set up and run an online transcription job. Don't let anyone fool you into thinking it is an easy job. It is very tasking.

I agree that you can earn much more doing transcription than surveys and post on forums. However, you need to have certain skills to do the job. I prefer to work on translation which I have done for many years.
