Need to Supplement Your Writing Income? Moonlight as a Search Engine Evaluator
March 25th 2010 17:03
If you're interested in supplementing your writing income and have a penchant for research, analysis, and Internet search, Butler Hill Group may have a job for you. The company has current openings for part-time (20 hours per week) "Search Engine Evaluators/Internet Search Gurus" in numerous countries. The position, of course, includes various requirements, which to some extent depend on the country in which you reside, though the majority of these appear to be the same for all countries.
Since many Orbleites reside in Australia, I'll provide the link to the Australian opening here. For those who live in other countries, here's a link to Butler Hill's main Job Opportunities page. (Unfortunately, these don't include openings in the United States, whether because they've already filled those or because they never had any I can't be sure.) However, if you live in the U.S. but have specific knowledge of another country, check out that listing, because it appears that at least some openings don't require residency but simply "extensive familiarity with a wide variety of online news sources published in" the target country.
Should mention that this opportunity is a limited-time project. Here's the description of the position on the Genuine Jobs website:
Search Engine Evaluators (Data Annotators) will review and evaluate internet search results based on specific search terms and provide a rating depending on the relevance of the search result to the search term. The evaluation work is done using an online automated tool.
You will work 4 hours per day (Monday-Friday) and have the flexibility to choose the hours you wish to work each day. This project requires a commitment to work part-time at 20 hours per week. Project work is expected to extend for at least two months, with a possible further extension up to June, 2010.

If this opportunity sounds like something you'd enjoy and/or be good at, take a stab at it. You may just find yourself with a regular job to supplement your freelance writing income.
Good luck!

Would this type of opportunity interest you? Why or why not? How helpful would it be to have this regular income to count on by only working part time hours while pursuing your writing the rest of the time?
