Making money from mundane tasks

Postby FuZyOn » 17 Dec 2016, 09:45

The online world can be an interesting place, especially if you're trying to earn a quick buck online. There are obvious and well-known sites like Swagbucks or Perk, but have you ever thought you could get paid for driving your car? Sending a friend request to someone on Facebook? I'll give you some pointers:

1. MileUp - The app is relatively new around the block, but the rewards you can get are really good. It esentially figures out when you're driving and gives you points for every mile you make. Those points can then be redeemed for gift cards.
You might be asking: Why would someone pay me to drive? Well, they're trying to improve their system that tracks driver accidents.
US only, I'm afraid. 500 miles equals $5.

2. Microworkers - By looking at the name you're probably thinking the site is a clone of Clickworker, but their business model is completely different. Instead of companies, Microworkers offers the opportunity to users to create tasks. Things like visiting websites, signing up with referral links, friending people on Facebook and so on are common on the site and paid with quite a bit for the task (around 10-20 cents usually).
One of the downsides is that Microworkers takes a little cut of your earnings and also needs to send a real postmail with a PayPal pin to your real address in order for you to cash out. That's a way of verifying you're a real person.

3. UserTesting - A site that looks to be basic and with not a lot of promise is actually an incredible opportunity for online moneymakers to earn a buck or two. The platform pays you for sharing your thoughts about certain services and every task is worth quite a bit ($5 upwards).
You will need a mic and/or webcam for this but the offer is still extremely good, IIRC after you've done some tests they will ship you a webcam if you want. They're legit and pay promptly.

4. SliceThePie - Probably known by a lot of you, SliceThePie pays you to rate music. They send you 90 seconds bits then demand a review of your opinions about the song they've shared. If you can talk more in-depth about the song they'll pay you extra, mentioning things like lyrics, instruments can help with that.
As of this moment I think they pay 5-25 cents per audio bit, maybe even more if there's a special offer going on. You're basically getting paid to listen to music, it's a great opportunity.

That's about it for some of the more "weird" websites you can find online. Some require no effort, some are pretty easy to get into but at the end of the day all 4 sites are an occasion for you to make extra cash online. Try them out and see if any of those works for you.

By the way, SliceThePie is limited to US and UK citizen only. If you're Asian, try somewhere else, like Microworkers.

This would be hugely fitting to US truck drivers. As well as other people who routinely drive over long distances.

That is unless there are restrictions barring commercial vehicles from the earning scheme.

There are no restrictions of that sort, I think it even works with public transportation, haha!

The article is good but the thing is most of the sites are only for US and Uk. It's really annoying.

Microworkers and User Testing are international, so give those a shot if the rest aren't available for you.

SliceThePie is a cool way to earn money by listening to music and giving your professional opinions. The more detailed you describe the instruments and lyrics of a song, the higher your star level will be and the more money you will earn for each review you make today.

While it is true that they do pay, it is important to know that it takes a long time to reach the payout level which is usually twenty dollars. It is good to use it as a side hobby when you have a break so that you do not get bored quickly with the small initial payments that can start from a few cents per song.
