List of transcription sites

This list of transcription sites is your key to the transcription world. Get your self busy by applying to many sites to increase chances of better output and of course more money.
Try to get familiar with different accents of the languages you know and also, expand your vocabulary and knowledge.
Take an example; you can be told to transcribe sound where people are speaking about space. If one man talks about "the corona", "AU", "Odyssey" etc. You should be able to grip the context of the conversation to be able to easily transcribe the content.
Requirements by some companies
Most companies will ask for proof of your skill by letting you transcribe a 60 second sample of sound. 
Your performance in that transcription will determine where you'll be positioned among the scribes or whether you'll be kicked out.
If you are kicked out, try learning what you did wrong. Correct your mistake, create another email and hit back.
One thing I like about the web is the fact that you can apply any number of times because there's no limit to the number of emails you can create.
The monster list of transcription sites
1. REV
A great site paying around $0.3-$1.2 for each audio minute.
Apply for rev to get your piece of cash.
2. TranscribeMe
Paying around $15-$23 for each sound hour. 
In actual sense, that's around $0.4 for each minute.
3. QA world
Also paying $0.3 per minute of sound. 
It also offers bonuses for transcribing 100 minutes in one week.
That's pretty good for a youth.
4. Go Transcript
Another great site offering $0.6 per audio minute. This is a great opportunity for you though some preliminary exam has to be taken.
5. Up work
This is a freelancing site. The rates vary extensively according to clients.
No test is offered here.
6. Freelancer
Also a freelancing site. Just like Upwork. It offers no limit to how much you can earn per minute of sound.
7. Allegis
Great for beginners and a good option for you to start your journey.
8. Scribie
Another superb options for beginners and paying around $10-$16 per audio hour.
Warning!!
I know you're ready to jump into the mud, but you should consider the fact that transcription has dirty facts. Frankly speaking, you won't succeed if you ain't serious.
