Those “Top 10 Work at Home Job Lists”: most are BUNK
I thought it would be useful to find the statistical consensus of the best 10 lists available. It turns out that the majority of web pages titles Top 10 Work at Home Jobs don’t actually have a list, rather they mention the 3 or so programs they are pushing.The marketers know that phrase is frequently searched for, so they use it as a title, just to bring in more traffic.
Of the 50+ sites examined about 5 had legitamate lists, not laden with commercials were found. They are listed below, note the lack of any real Consensus among them.

A scam report site mentioned a page we omitted, that declared “we have investigated ‘over 278 online jobs’ ” and picked the best 10, apparently the first listed there is a known scam.
