Searching for online psychic jobs? I will show you prophet-able opportunities, and how to be successful freelancing from home by phone, webcam, live chat and email. The first thing to determine is if you are best going solo or teaming up. It all depends on your platform.
Going Solo | Teaming Up
What is a platform? If you have an online audience, you have an online platform. That means social media, blogs and websites with a high number of targeted unique daily visitors. (A single visitor who looks at multiple pages or returns to your site numerous times in a day is counted as ONE unique visitor.) And you need thousands, each and every day, to say you have a platform.
Earnings in Going Solo vs Teaming Up with a Network
Let me explain the pros on cons of both avenues.
You are either a freelancer providing paid psychic readings independently (going solo - receiving full rates), as I do now, or you will freelance by providing paid psychic readings to the client base of an existing network (teaming up - receiving % rates), as I used to do.
Nobody is going to pay you a fixed wage in this industry. You are going to be a self-employed freelancer whichever way you look at it. Also see FAQ Earnings
Teamed Up Online Psychic Jobs with the Big Networks – The Pros and Cons
The downside is money. It can be a bit disheartening when you provide great psychic advice where the client is happily paying around $5 per minute, but you are only earning around $1 per minute. The best rates I’ve seen are where you earn 40% and 50% of your charge out rate. But some are as low as 20%.
When I worked for a big international phone psychic line the rate to clients was $4 per min and I would receive $1 per minute. Then you pay your taxes too! But I was very happy with those arrangements because I had been in business before and I knew the true costs of marketing. I had many happy and lucrative years working from home with just a laptop and phone line. But I’ve met some naive psychics who just cannot get their head around being paid $1 out of every $4 or $5 charged to the client. If you are new to the world of online psychic jobs, don't get hung up on that.
The upside is lots of clients. The top psychic networks are so big, so well established, and have such deep marketing pockets, that there are always plenty of clients to go around for good evidential psychics. They run affiliate marketing programs which reward other websites (like mine) very well for exposing the network to their website’s visitors.
As an example, let’s say you joined the Kasamba Psychic Reading Network. When logged on as an expert you could be exposed to millions of people across the world in a single day. All thanks to the affiliated advertising paid for by Kasamba’s corporate body.
If you are just starting out and want the quickest way to earn a home-based income as a psychic, join a good company like the ones I list below. I’m going to show you how to do that. I will also show you how to know if the network is offering you a genuine opportunity and how to weed out the fake-believe online psychic job offers with the help of Alexa's Traffic Rank tool.
The Alexa Traffic Ranking Tool
You will want to weed out the fake-believe sites, from the genuine psychic marketplaces. To do this I recommend you use the Alexa Extension for Chrome. With it you can easily see if a site offering online psychic jobs is getting a lot of traffic OR NOT!
Any site with lower than 500,000 is a good platform. Sites ranking over 2,000,000 are NOT good platforms.
It is a free extension for the Chrome browser.
You can see how I use the results to rank the world's most Famous Psychic’s websites on this page.
These are the psychic networks I would recommend you check out if you want to team up to portals with good platforms. I list them in order of most traffic detected on the Alexa Traffic Rank Tool. I occasionally change the list as and when stats change.
Lowest Number = Most Traffic = Biggest Platform = More Exposure For You.
(Site rankings last updated August 2020)
Ranking number one is Keen at 48,109.
Best for freelancing with live chat, email, and phone psychic jobs.

Then we have Kasamba with traffic ranking at 71,318.
Best for freelancing with live chat, email, and phone psychic jobs.

Next is Oranum with 132,401.
Best for freelancing with live-stream webcam psychic jobs.

While not so good on the traffic rank, Lifereader at 625,402 is worth considering.
This network is smaller but growing. Less readers means you will compete lees for exposure and if you establish yourself well here, you will be in a good position as they grow in size. I predict Lifereader to out-perform other networks in due course.
Best for freelancing with live chat, email, and phone psychic jobs.

Going Solo With Freelancing Online Psychic Jobs - Pros and Cons
The upside is money. The best thing about psychic freelancing is you get to keep all the money you charge. (Less the costs of marketing, and services such as payment processing and communication systems, and taxes of course).
The downside is you must find your own clients. If you have a good platform all you will need to look at is the most suitable ways of scheduling, connecting with, and charging your clients.
