Companies that are regularly looking for online researchers

1 – study.com – Remote articles of study are regularly open to researchers. Open to multiple countries! It is a contract position.

Essay researchers use SEO research to determine the best information to include in a full article that outlines topics such as teacher certification exams.

Work when you want, flexible schedule. The salary range for this role is offered on a per project basis which may fluctuate slightly based on the type of preparation required.

2 – 10EQS – This company is occasionally open to online researchers. They prefer to hire people who have a business degree or business experience. Also other remote jobs are regularly available.

3 – RWS – With RWS, “experienced researchers who demonstrate consistent, quality performance in their research can earn the designation of “Study Specialist” and qualify for other schemes including fixed fee, fixed fee + award and hourly fee arrangements.”

4 – hobby jam – I’ve seen this posted frequently in groups. Doing research here and there can be good for extra cash. Work your own schedule, part-time. Payment is made through PayPal.

5 – First Quarter Finance – This company occasionally has a “Research Analyst” position open that is 100 percent remote. It is ideal for those who like to use Excel software and are good at academic level research. You can work as many hours a week as you want (with a minimum of 10).

How to find more companies looking for online researchers

There are many companies that do not have an ongoing need for online researchers, but occasionally there are such openings. If you want to search for these jobs on your own so you don’t miss them when they go live, I recommend doing so via Indeed and more Flex Jobs.

Another option is Upwork, a popular platform for freelancers where companies post many types of jobs/projects.

In fact, just make sure you put “research” or “researcher” into the search form, using the term remote for your location to find a home-based job.

Flexjobs has a complete section for research jobs, all guaranteed legitimate companies. There is a $14.95 per month fee to access FlexJobs listings, but I’ve seen no scams posted and many reputable companies choose to list their leads exclusively with FlexJobs.

You can use promo code AFFILPROMO to get 30 percent off a one-month membership to FlexJobs.

It’s also possible to set up your account on FlexJobs so it doesn’t automatically bill you after you log in if you want to try it for a month under “Account Settings”.

Work at home industries where online research is a big part of what you do

1 – Freelance Writing – For most freelance writers, research is half the work! If you are a good researcher and you are also a good writer, this is definitely an industry you might want to look into.

Some popular companies that are always looking for freelance writers are:

2 – Transcription – Since transcription is technically listening to audio files and typing what you hear, it doesn’t seem like it would cause online research, but it does.

Transcribers often have to listen to audio of people discussing topics they know nothing about, and online research is important to ensure transcriptions are typed correctly.

If you’re good at online research and you’re also a fast typist with a good ear, transcription might be something to consider.

Some popular companies that are always looking for transcribers are:

3 – Search Engine Evaluators – Search engine evaluators should be very comfortable using Google and generally very internet savvy. Being a good online researcher lends itself very well to this type of work.

Some popular companies often hire search engine evaluators:

4 – Online “Experts” – There are many sites that pay experts in specific industries to answer questions for those who need answers. And even though you may be an expert on some subject, you may still need to do research to answer questions.

Keep in mind that while many of these sites let you work when you want, they’re often good for a little extra money here and there.

Some popular companies often hire online experts:

5 – Court Research – There are several legitimate companies that pay researchers to go out and visit courts in or near their local area and find documents for research purposes.

While this work isn’t technically done from your home and most of the research may not be conducted online, it can be a very flexible way to freelance and make money.

Some popular companies often seek out forensic researchers:
