Any freelancer who wants to be good at data entry and web scraping only requires three things :- 2)Typing speed - This one is quite obvious. If you want someone to finish the work on time, they will really need to be fast with their fingers. I have a typing speed of 80 wpm. 3)Knowledge of the web and excel - I have worked in both sales and product management for web based companies and have a strong command of both the web and Microsoft excel.
