Reviews: Making Cash at Home in Your Spare Time

I know there are many people like me. You have a steady income, but you keep finding yourself falling short too often or you are making it alright but you just never have that little bit of extra cash to treat yourself. You wouldn't mind a second job, but with your schedule its hard to find a job that can fit into your life. You've looked on the internet for "income at home" jobs and find nothing that suits you or are just straight-up scams. I am there with you. I have been looking for legitimate online financial solutions and I have found some, though you aren't going to get rich off the sites I'm going to tell you about, they will actually pay. Let me rephrase, I'm not going to get rich off these sites, someone with a different skill set might do better than I can.

The first legit site I found was www.mturk.com. It is from Amazon.com and their slogan is "Artificial Artificial Intelligence". Basically you complete tasks online that are too tedious for computers. I worked for about 5 hours total and have made an astounding $1.97. Well to be honest I probably only worked about 3 hours and spent a couple hours deciding which tasks I wished to take. This is one site that if you have certain skill sets you can make decent cash. For instance, if you can translate from Japanese to English or Arabic to English, etc. you can make better money. $1.50 of my total was from writing a 500 word article about the history of beer in America. If you can write fairly creatively and quickly or have unique skills you may do better here that I am. You can cash out your money or have it credited to an Amazon gift card.

The second site I found was www.sidetick.com This is a site that would be great for people that are really into social networking, whereas I am not. I have a facebook account but I rarely use it anymore. But for those who do log on all the time you have the potential to make some cash. There are different ways to make money from this site. The most popular is when you post links (e.g., funny youtube videos, news stories) to your facebook, twitter, blog, etc. you embed the link with an ad and after the ad is done they continue on to the link you provided. There is also a section where you sign up for trial offers and can earn money for signing up for these offers. They gave me $1 just for signing up as a member of Side Tick. I have yet to sign up for a trial offer but I'm sure that if I do I will be bombarded with emails. Side Tick pays via Paypal.

The third site I found was www.mindfieldonline.com On this site you complete surveys for businesses and consumer groups. They pay fairly well, between $1-5 per survey. I have just signed up for this and have not completed any work, but I did loads of research on this site and found it to be legit but many people said they would only get 2-3 surveys a month while others report making an extra $30-40 per month and only working about 2 hours. I guess if you fall into the right marketing demographic then you may do well with these surveys from Mindfield Online. Mindfield pays via Paypal.

That all depends on how much you want to make and who you are. If you want guaranteed money based on work and performance or have skill sets that could be useful, I would recommend www.mturk.com. If you are a younger person or someone who frequents social networking sitesm I would recommend www.sidetick.com because you might make a little extra money to do what you are already doing. If you have very little spare time or would just like to see how making money online works I would either recommend Amazon's M-Turk or www.mindfieldonline.com. I hope this review has helped you in your quest for extra income online.
