FOW, or Filipino Online Worker

Let me coin a new term for Filipinos who work online. In contrast to OFW, or Overseas Filipino Workers, FOWs are residents of the Philippines who find work in the Internet and earn some sort of income to support their daily needs. I was once very skeptical about online work because of the many scams which are often heard of in association with working online. I was however, motivated by lack of funds in my pocket which made me open my eyes and really study what online work is all about.

Along with the large number of scams, are real and legitimate offers of jobs which one can really do online. This is not to say though, that one should just go ahead, and just apply to any jobs offered online. Research is often needed, lots of it, on what working online is all about.

There are so many helpful sites in the internet, most of them are free, which can truly help anyone who wants to learn more and earn more. With learning, comes more options on what to do next. For starters, here's a list of jobs many FOWs are engaged in:
-Blogging
-Writing
-Transcription
-Graphic Designs
-Online Selling

And many more. Watch out for detailed descriptions of each of these work opportunities in the coming posts.
