That’s why we’ve come up with a list of work-at-home positions that don’t involve the phone, so you can boost your income without noise being an issue.

No-Phone Work-From-Home Jobs

Be A Moderator For Online Communities

Almost every online group or forum needs moderators or administrators to keep everything in order. You’ve probably come across these mods and admins if you’ve ever joined a Facebook group or online forum, and you probably wondered if they did it for free.

In some cases, people do volunteer for those positions. But in others, they get paid to maintain order. You can search online for community moderator jobs where you’ll be tasked with enforcing rules, answering questions, and combating spam. Examples of sites that have hired paid moderators include Badoo, Social Factor, and OkCupid.

Test Apps And Websites

Can you follow simple instructions? Do you enjoy offering your opinion and giving feedback? If so, you can become an app or website tester and get paid for your time.

Developers can’t put products out on the market without testing them first, as they need to make sure they function correctly and are bug-free. That’s where you’ll come in as a tester to ensure everything is A-okay before launch.

You don’t need technical experience or knowledge to become a tester for most sites. As long as you can follow directions and have a laptop or smartphone with a mic and camera to provide feedback, you should be good to go.

Although there are many testing websites where you can sign up, you can get your start with these:

• Ferpection
• User Interviews
• TestingTime
• Userlytics

Evaluate Search Engines

Just as apps and websites need to be tested, so do search engines. As a web search evaluator, you’ll be tasked with searching for specific items and ensuring accurate results. Companies that hire such evaluators include Appen, Leapforce, and Lionbridge.

Become Someone’s Virtual Assistant

If you’ve ever worked as a personal assistant, you can do the same from the comfort of your couch as a virtual assistant for someone who lives across the globe. Thanks to sites like Belay, InboxDone, My BLTR, and Profit Factor, virtual assistants can connect with clients to help them answer emails, data entry, proofreading, scheduling, and more.

Translate

If you know more than one language, you can work as an online translator through companies like Gengo, Unbabel, Welocalize, and Rev. You can also look for translation gigs on sites like Fiverr and Upwork.
