How to Become a Freelance Typist)-
Information and advice on how to work at home or
locally doing typing jobs:
If you are good at typing, know your way round Microsoft Word and Office
and can handle spreadsheets then you have a skill that people will pay for. You
can earn cash payments for typing at home or in someone's home or office.
For example some authors, like Jeffrey Archer, still write their novel
manuscripts in longhand in notebooks. They will then pay someone to type the
manuscript out, provide a printed hard copy and several saved discs and pen
drive copies. Though a top author will most likely have their own personal
assistant there are still authors and writers who are looking for someone to
type their work. This could be on a freelance or regular basis.
There are also people like University or College students who will pay someone
to type and set out their thesis and study work. They may not have learnt the
correct way to lay out their course work and will invest some of their fees to
pay someone who knows how to do this so that they can gain valuable extra marks
for presentation.
Do look out for websites that will allow you to register your CV for free and be
viewed by prospective employees such as authors, managers and other people
looking for skilled and qualified typists and secretaries.
Another skill that you can earn money from is the ability to type from tapes or
live dictation. Some authors and writers prefer to dictate their work into a
dictaphone or out loud as someone types because they have the ability to
visualise their work and can narrate it out loud faster than they can type. They
will pay someone to type out a presentable version of their work. Some top
writers have never learnt the skills of typing or using a computer and have no
wish to learn, no matter how successful they have become. They would rather pay
someone to do the typing for them.
How Much To Charge For Typing Work
A realistic charge for normal work would be about £4 per thousand words. Some
typists charge an hourly rate of pay. You can negotiate fees with your client
and could charge a bit extra for work needed in a hurry. You may want to agree
on expenses such as paper, ink cartridges, pen drives, CDs, disks etc. If you do
not intend to charge your clients for these costs you should add these to your
income tax expense sheets along with any computer and printer equipment you have
had to purchase or replace. Any repair work should also be added to your tax
expense sheets. This should be at a percentage if any equipment or office
supplies are used in your personal life or used by other members of your family.
Income from typing at home or freelance should be declared on your self
assessment annual tax return. Typing work at home would suit a secretary
who is looking for additional work or is retired and wants to supplement a
pension. It would also suit people with typing skills who can produce excellent
work such as formal letters, essays, spreadsheets, manuscripts, etc.

of genuine freelance typists in today's business world alone, not factoring in

type like most freelance typist's are able to type, and not many others actually
enjoy it. Freelance typist jobs are open to people with plenty of expertise in
typing, of course, and computer knowledge is a definite asset.

boosting your skills as well as providing income by doing something you excel
at and find relatively easy. Finding these freelance typist jobs is
much easier than most people realize, since some companies are offering them
rather frequently, however, finding a good and reputable freelance typist job

The different types of freelance typist
jobs that are being offered most usually are firstly the temporary freelance
typist position. Most usually these jobs require the applicant to be
knowledgeable in data entry and key operations. These jobs may last from 1 - 3
months, give or take some time, since it all depends on the company's need for
the freelance typist. This freelance typist job pays either hourly or by the
job, depending on the duration if it. There are no formal contracts for becoming
an employee of the company. When this happens, you don't even need to report
your earnings for tax purposes in the US. That's a big benefit.
