I'm sure we've all been part of the standard PTC sites that you struggle to make money on, you work your butt off in exchange for a few cents every day and when you finally reach the minimum payment threshold you would be lucky to get paid. Unfortunately most of them are pyramid schemes that in the end will only waste your time, that's why you should look further ahead and see the real opportunities available online. I'll start with a few:
1. Clickworker - this site is the best for me in terms of earnings, I've made over $3k in a year and a half I've been on it and I live in Romania, a country that doesn't get as
many offers as the big ones. Imagine how much you can make if you live in a more prosperous place.
Don't be fooled though, the money isn't to be made on Clickworker itself. You'll have to pass a couple English exams (not that hard) and a decently easy information gathering test to qualify for UHRS, that's where you will make the big bucks from doing microtasks. It's more in depth than this and I'll probably write a detailed guide in another thread if people are interested.
2. Unbabel - now, this one is aimed at people that know at least 2 languages and are comfortable with their grammar and coherence skills. You'll have to translate bits sent to you by Unbabel and they pay quite nicely, a few paragraphs are worth $1-$1.5 and it doesn't take long to finish them. Languages in demand as far as I know are French, German, Portuguese and Spanish. If you speak either of those give it a shot, you could make serious money. There's also a Chrome extension that notifies you when tasks are available.
3. UsabilityHub - you'll probably not make a lot on this but the earnings are consistent, you get paid for doing $0.10 tasks that don't take more than a minute. You can leave the site open in your browser and it will automatically detect new tasks, notifying you when they pop up. I've managed to earn $20 in a month for doing 15-30 minutes worth of tasks along the way.
The tasks are really simple, you don't need to be qualified or something. You'll just give a honest opinion to what pops up.
4. UserTesting - one of the sites I've been using steadily for a while is UserTesting, it's simple to use and it pays handsomely, you get money for doing products/site reviews.You do need at least a microphone for this (don't worry, everything is confidential) and in general I've been making at least $5-10 for a 15-30 minute test. Tasks pop up here and there but you should have no problem making at least $20/month. You don't need any qualifications for the reviews, just give your honest opinion.
That's about it, these GPT sites have brought me a lot of dollars over the time I've been using them and they're easily better than your standard PTC site that pays you a tenth of a cent for watching an ad. Please chime in with your own recommendations if you have any.
