Online Moderator Jobs

Online Moderator Jobs for Forums and Chat Rooms

I used to have a forum on this site. Before I moved it into a blog format, and even for a little while I had it up and running. It was a lot of work, and a lot of posts to moderate. I can see how even on a small scale like mine was that it would help to have someone either helping or doing the moderating.

Now, think about HUGE websites with 100's of posts every day. They certainly need help. That's where forum moderator jobs come in. You “sweep” message boards and make sure the guidelines for a particular forum are followed.

Though there aren't tons of moderator type jobs out there – they do exist, usually have flexible hours and pay “decently”.

As always, I try to keep the information on this page as current as possible, so please feel free to bookmark it so that you can come back often to see what is new. Also, please share this page with others that are looking for work at home and might enjoy this type of work.
