From Wikipedia:
"A Virtual Assistant (typically abbreviated to VA, also called a virtual office assistant) is an entrepreneur who provides professional administrative, technical, or creative (social) assistance to clients from a home office."
These days VA, or Online Professional, are used to describe online business owners who specialize in everything from general admin work, to web design, to social marketing specialists, to online business managers and everything in between.
The field has grown exponentially since I started my business 3 years ago.

I like to say that anything an assistant/secretary can do for someone "in" the office, I can do for them only by working remotely from home.

Working at home with your PC. It's more on telecommuting and you can save gas - that's the benefit I love most about it.

Virtual assistant are workers at home that specialized in different areas, some are working on multimedia, creating animation and graphics designing, link building for seo, article writing and submission and even take care of your online booking.
The benefits of having VA is the salary and its benefits as well like SSS, Healthcare and others. You can hire cheap VA in lower rank countries, its cost cutting for your business.

If you subscribe to the newsletter on Virtual Assistant Moms you get a free eReport that describes several VA niches to give you some ideas, but everyone is right, there are some who will say it's one defined thing, but to me a Virtual Assistant can be any job where you assist another business remotely with various tasks.
