Let's Round it All Up!
Okay I have now spent at least the past 3 years trying out various so-called money-making websites and let's be honest I haven't had a great deal of success. I would estimate I now make approximately £150 per month from my online actives and the majority of this income comes from cashback deals.
Now cashback is a great way of making money in the short term but as offers dried up so does the cashflow. However, I highly reccommend the following 3 sites from which I have made approximately £500 in cashback. Also the best deals I find are the gambling ones as through these you stand a chance of earning your investment back - always try to stick to safe bets or find slot machines that have high payout percentages - whilst still keeping the cashback - i.e. you earn the cashback at no cost.
1.
2. Cashback Kings
3.
I have also had some success with gambling but this is more down to luck than anything else as any system I have tried to adopt has been an abject failure. I once tried the very well known roulette betting system of Martingale / Fibonacci, which seemed on paper brillant - double your bets on black until black comes up and then switch to red. However, this system is massively flawed as roulette is a betting game with no memory - i.e. the outcome of the last spin does not affect the current one - and therefore all you really are doing is placing a continually doubling bet - which grows dramatically very quickly - on an almost 50 / 50 outcome. Silly when you think about it and very risky.
So what else I have I learnt over the years? Well surveys are useful and do make money - though NEVER sign-up to a site that requires you to pay for the privilage of taking surveys as these are all scams - albeit very slowly. I would say I have made approximately £100 over the years from survey sites and I am quite close to another big pay out from quite a few of the sites I use. Again I have a top 3 sites to reccommend.
1. Harris Poll Online - a very good site for which I have qualified for every single survey they have sent me
2. Lightspeed Consumer Panel - an exceptionally professional site that provides regular surveys of which at least 1/2 you should qualify for and trustworthy, reliable payments via Paypal. However, this site is currently UK residents only
3. mySurvey.com - a very trustworthy site who reguarly send surveys of which a high percentage you will qualify for.
Recently due to an impending reduction in my disposal income and the news of another baby on the way :D I have taken even more steps to find an steady secondary income online and in doing have discovered some interesting prospects, which I would like to share with you
1. Slice the Pie - this is a very interesting site that allows you to listen and rate new music, and for each review you earn points that can then be used to invest into bands - or you can use your own money. By investing into bands you were receive a percentage of their sales if they are successful in achieving certain goals first - such as 1000 record sales to break even. Personally I think this is a fantastic opportunity as you would only need 1 of the bands you invest in to take off for pretty impressive returns
2. PickJack - an interesting site where you slowly accumulate money through 2 simple activites - answering and posing questions. However, as it stands I have submitted 6 questions and answered 120 but only made $0.05c so I doubt this is going to be a very high earner. Good fun though and an interesting concept
3. Vinefire - this is an awesome site with very high earning potential as you get $50 for every referral, as well as for joining; $0.45c for every link you click on; $0.55c for every vote you place; and $0.12c for every link you add. It is all completely free and very quickly you can earn $100 plus. There are a few things to be aware of though and that is there is a $50 daily earning limit - can be raised to $100 with a $5 donation - and the site is currently in beta testing and no payments will be made until Jan 31 2010. Now this may sound like another scam and I suspose there is a good chance they will never pay but hey as it is free to join you have nothing to lose and you might just make $1000's
Anyway this is all I have for now but everyday I am still finding new sites and coming up with new ideas, and though I have not made much money I have definitely learnt a thing or two over the years about using the internet to your advantage :D
