What's so great about these sites

These days, no job seems safe. On top of that, you can't hardly get a job because work forces on shrinking in many fields, qualifications are getting tougher to meet, and pay is not going up.

With these sites, you can work part-time with multiple websites or some cases full-time at just one. You can do this while making as much as, if not more than a regular job and working from home with flexible hours.

In most cases, you don't need a degree or extensive experience either. But, you will most likely be considered an independent contractor, so you will have to keep up with your own taxes in most countries.
