The Top 12 Sites for Making Easy Money Online

The following is a list of what I believe to be the top 12 sites for making easy money. All the sites listed here are extremely professional and trustworthy sites that are free to join, guaranteed to pay out and available to most worldwide locations. On average these sites will pay roughly $5 - $20 per month for basic online activity - i.e. reading emails, visiting websites, completing surveys and signing up to 100% free offers. However, this is not where the real money is at! That is why 'referrals are king' because many of these sites of a multi-tiered commission based referral scheme, which basically means you get a percentage of the activity of your referrals, and their referrals, and their referrals, and so on! Through such a scheme you could easily earn over $100 per month! Anyway I highly recommend signing up to all 12 of the following sites as they are all free and in combination have the referral earning potential of over $1000 per month! Please keep in mind though that none of these sites will get you 'rich quick' - progress is slow and at first you will be only earning cents per day. It takes time to get established with enough referrals to start making the real money but once you do, you can sit back and watch the cash roll in. It just takes effort and patience!

1. Clix Sense - Number 1 for referral earning potential and an absolute must for anyone serious about earning money online!

This is an awesome paid to read site that is not only free to join, it also pays out regularly! The other great thing about it is that if you wish to upgrade to the premium account - which immediately opens up 200+ paid emails to you, with further ones being added everyday - it only costs $10 per year and by coming a premium member you can then participate in what has to be the best referral scheme out there - 5-tiered with the earning potential of over $1,000s per year!

Pros: Very professional website, well established with a massive user base, brilliant 5-tiered referral system with massive earning potential, cheap and effective membership scheme, invaluable ad campaign packages that deliver reliable traffic quantities, low payout minimum of $10

Cons: Only two methods - viewing ads and referrals - of earning money, ads tend to only earn $0.01 per click, few new ads added daily for free subscribers, 5-tiered referral system only applies to premium members, payments via check only



2. Hits4Pay

A very easy to use site that has been in operation now for 10 years and is very trustworthy. Paid emails are stored on an internal inbox and are never directly sent to your email address - you receive an email notification of new paying emails being available and then you log into your account to read them. The site emails roughly 20 emails per week and pays on average $0.01 per email. The site also operates a 2-tiered commission based referral system that has high earning potential.

Pros: Very easy to use site, has been in operation for 10 years, $10 sign-up bonus, 2-tiered commission based referral system with high earning potential, emails sent out regularly, internal and secure email inbox, online payments via PayPal

3. Matrix Mails - Best membership schemes

Incredible, well established site that can be trusted to pay and offers lots of very simple ways to make money for no investment and an incredible 6-tiered referral system that can bring in very significant amounts. The membership upgrades cost between $5 - $60 and offer a huge variety of money making features, including free referrals. Highly recommended!

Cons: Ads earn only $0.005 for free members and up to $0.02 for gold members, takes a while to get going as referred members have to first earn $1 before you start getting their commission, weak online feedback on the status of your submitted sign-up offers - they do not appear immediately in the pending section after you have completed an sign-up offer submission, relatively few new ads added on a daily basis



4. Financial Freedom Ads

I love this site as it is so well presented and is once again free to join! Make money by visiting web sites and referring your friends. Through this site you could easily make over $10 per month through this site for very little investment of time

5. Cash Crate

A very professional site that is free to join and pays between $0.25 - $1.50 for the free offers completed and $3 - $75 for the trial offers. The site has at least 50 of the free offers to complete each month and therefore you could easily make $10 - $50 per month for absolutely nothing, and evening more if you complete some of the trial offers! The site also operates a 2-tiered commission based referral system, which if you can get the referrals could easily earn you a further $50 - $100 per month.

Cons: Payments made on the 20th of every month - you cannot request payment when you want it, free offers earn considerable less than the other offers - tend to pay a maximum of $1.50 each, payments via check only



6. Snap Dollars - Best all-rounder with what has to be the quickest cash earning offer!

Another great site for making money by signing up to 100% free offers, reading emails and referring your friends. It is an exceptionally user friendly site and completely free to join - in fact this site gives YOU $5 for signing up! You could easily make $50 - $200 dollars per month, especially as they pay $5 for each friend referred!

I have also found a method on snap dollars of making very quick money! Basically you sign up for the BingoLiner and BingoRoom offers, which pay out $60 and $30 respectively. To complete these offers you only have to deposit $20 into BingoLiner and $25 into BingoRoom, which means you quickly earn $90 for only $45 investment! Absolutely fantastic and a cash giveaway that should not be missed!

Pros: Fun site that has lots of different ways of earning money - offers, clicks, games, emails and sweepstakes, paid offers payout significant amounts and can be used to earn cash quickly, you earn $5 just for signing up, $5 per referral plus 10% of earnings, email notifications for every status change of your account such as when you get a new referral or when you get paid for a successfully completed offer

Cons: Payments via check only, relatively high payout minimum of $30, referral system is not tiered, paid emails are few and far between, $5 referral bonus is only paid when the referred member requests their first check, few 100% free offers that pay at most a few dollars, no way of telling which offers you have submitted and are pending payment



7. GpTreasure - A little know gem of a site that pays straight out to your online payment account for each offer completed!

This is an exceptionally good site, which is free to join, where you get paid for completing offers, most of them for free! Each offer pays between $0.30 - $10 and they will pay you for each offer completed within 48 hours! No minimum payout and no fuss! This is a very straightforward site through which you will definitely make some money.

Pros: Payouts within 24-48 hours of each offer successfully completed, no minimum payout, immediate feedback via the website on the status of every offer submitted, online payments via PayPal, MoneyBookers, AlertPay, E-Gold and others

Cons: Relatively low payouts for 100% free offers compared to the other offers, only two methods - offers and referrals - of earning money, referral system is neither tiered nor commission based - it pays $0.02 per referral and thats it



8. Treasure Trooper - Most enjoyable site

Awesome site that is free to join and pays you for signing up to offers, buying online and completing surveys. Very well presented and easy to use, and if you are serious about making money online you really need to check this site out - it pays roughly $0.50 to $60 per offer, a lot of them being 100% free, and through this site you can easily make an extra $50 per month

Pros: Exceptionally well presented site that is a lot of fun, Huge number of offers for you to complete and new ones are regularly added, lots of the offers are free to join, can also earn cash back from shopping, 2-tiered referral system with high earning potential, awesome treasure hunt feature that can earn you $100, good online feedback on the status of your submitted sign-up offers, online payments via PayPal, new offers regularly added

9. Cash Money Email

A good site that is well presented and features a number of useful ways to make money - clicks, emails, referrals and sign-ups. The referral is commission based and has a reasonable earning potential of $50 - $150 per month. If you become a gold member for a one-time fee of $15 cash money emails will include you in an automated referral rotation and therefore you don't have to do anything to get the referrals!

Pros: Multiple ways to earn money, gold membership scheme is cheap and has high earning potential, referral system earns $0.01 for every click, offers every day at least 6 sites to view and these each earn $0.02, interesting point system - some ads pay in points instead of cash and these points are converted to cash every 30 days, online payments via PayPal or E-gold

Cons: Member's page is poorly laid out, really need to be a gold member to get the benefits, despite site saying their referral system is multi-tiered I can find no evidence of this, paid emails are actually operated by Email Pays U, currently only 2 paid to sign-up offers, high minimum payout amount of $50



10. Email Pays U

This site is very similiar to Cash Money Email, which is no surprise as they are own by the same company! This means though that by signing up to both, you effectively double your income potential from this company and that is why both of them are in this list. There are some differences though - this site sends our regular paid emails, has a 2-tiered referral system with far greater earning potential, only pays via checks, payout minimum is reduced to $39.99 for gold members, $50 minimum only applies to first payout and is $15 afterwards, you only earn $0.005 for the daily clicks, gold membership scheme costs $18

Pros: Multiple ways to earn money, gold membership scheme is cheap and has high earning potential, 2-tiered commission based referral that earns $0.01 for every paid email in your downline and therefore has very high earning potential, paid emails sent out regularly - around 10 per week and each pay $0.02

Cons: Member's page is poorly laid out, really need to be a gold member to get the benefits, payments via check only, only earn $0.005 for the 6 daily clicks, minimum payout is still relatively high - $50 for first payout ($39.99 for gold members) and $15 afterwards, currently only 2 paid to sign-up offers




11. Neobux - Probably the best looking paid to click site around!

Brilliant site that is very professional and always has new links that pay daily, and with an impressive referral system this site has high earnings potential. Must have an alert pay account but it is free to join

Pros: Slick website that is simplicity itself to use, paid links are refreshed / added daily, rent a referral system is cheap and useful, ad campaigns are effective and competitively priced, online payments to your AlertPay account, very low payout minimum of $2

Cons: Only two methods - viewing ads and referrals - of earning money, ads tend to only earn $0.01 per click, referral system is not tiered, only supports AlertPay for payments, relatively few ads added on a daily basis



12. AlertBux

This is a highly slick website which is simplicity itself to use! You will earn money through viewing ads and referring your friends, and could easily make $5 - $20 per month with very little effort. The payout minimum is a measly $5 and via Alertpay.

Pros: Exceptionally professional site, at least 10 new ads added daily, online payments via AlertPay, relatively low payout minimum of $5, good buy referral packages that range from $10 for 10 to $89 for 100
