Micro jobs- New Trend in online industry
by SMITA VIBHUTE Home based job providerThe basic concept of a micro jobs--receiving a small fee for a small task--runs across many possible types of micro jobs. These might include:
- Online microtasks - These small tasks can be done entirely online, requiring no real-world interaction. Buyers of these services advertise on microjob websites to find someone willing to do the task.
- Real-world microtasks - Similar to online microtasks in that buyers of service advertise online for workers, the task is not completed online. Websites promoting these types of micro jobs are something of a marketplace for odd jobs.
- Crowd sourcing projects - Companies hire workers to do one small part of a larger project. Workers generally log on to a company's website and choose from available tasks. Amazon's Mechanical Turk is one of the most popular sites offering this type of micro job.
- Online services marketplace - In these microjobs, workers offer small services (usually for a set fee) and buyers browse the marketplace to find people offering the services they need.
- Reward programs - Some microjobs may not offer payment in money but in points or something else. The tasks in these often involve marketing products to the worker.
- Surveys - Completing surveys as a work-at-home job has been around for a while and is, perhaps, the original micro job.
How Are Micro Jobs Done?
Many microjobs, particularly those of crowd sourced data entry projects, are done completely online from a computer. However, some micro jobs may be done in both in the real world and online and could require a cell phone. For example, a company may want you to go to a store and photograph a display of a product or conduct a price check and submit the information online via your cell phone.

Generally, these jobs pay very small sums, but they require very little time. In order to make money, you have to work fast and take on as many tasks as you can. Since these are done on a contract (and not employee) basis, there is no guarantee that these micro jobs pay minimum wage. Most companies pay cash (usually through a PayPal account) but some pay in something other than cash, i.e. gift cards, reward points, services, bitcoins. Often the pay is calculated in US dollars but can be converted into a different currency when paid into a PayPal account.
