Finding 1099 and Remote Work Online

If you work for a service like Textbroker, you are a 1099 contract worker, not an employee. It gets called that because 1099 is the name of the tax form you get if you make over $600 in a year.

This site gives you a leg up on how Textbroker works so you can hit the ground running as a freelance writer. Just check for the posts with the Textbroker Label to find that information.

Here are a couple of other online services:

Upwork is the largest and best known online service of the sort. I am not a fan, but some people do make it work.
