Career and job tips: how to earn extra cash online

Those who are home bound, stay-at-home moms or just people who want to earn a little extra cash can find lots of resources online. Many places will pay you, although only pennies, to click on links and go visit some of their affiliates. Other places will pay you to read email, perform certain activities at web sites or sign up for newsletters. If you love surfing the web and playing trivia, bingo or lottery games, you’ll love these kinds of sites. The prizes may vary from cash, to gift certificates, to points that you can exchange for various gifts offered at the site’s redemption center. Normally what’s required of you is to register at the website, for which they usually give you points, and then each day, each week or whenever you have time, you log in and participate in various site activities. There’s usually a link that takes you to a page where you’ll see all of the available ways that you can earn points or cash at that site.

Some of these paying sites are survey sites that pay you to give your opinion on everything from going to the movies to buying diapers. Some of them pay $5 for a 20 minute survey that’s actually fun. Some of the survey sites also send you a sampling of products so you can give your opinion of their new products.

Things you normally do, like watch TV, can earn you money online, too. Some sites ask you to answer questions about your favorite TV shows, then give you points each day that you do so. After you’ve saved up a few points, you can go to their auction with your points and buy yourself something, or cash the points out for a gift certificate to a local gas station, department store or fast food place. Some of these sites may or may not have an auction, a gift store, a list of gift certificates from which to choose, or just cash. Either way, you’ll have to save the points for awhile before you’ll have enough to cash out. Usually there are different levels, like 5,000 points for a $10 gift certificate, or 10,000 for a $25 gift certificate and so on.

Although some places offer you only pennies, or a few points to perform the activities, the points add up if you do it daily, and you can get considerable points by doing a couple of activities only weekly. In one day, it’s possible to earn, at one site, 15 points for an on-site survey, 30 more for reading a couple of emails, and 25 more for visiting a couple of web sites. Add these points up over the course of a year, for each site, and you can cash out for several nice gift certificates, a few cool gifts and some cash at the end of the year. When you consider that each activity may only take a few seconds, that’s quite a nest egg you’re building.

The objective of many of these sites is to get you to shop through their links, so they’ll earn money each time you make a purchase, but most of them don’t require that you make any purchases whatsoever. Do a search for “earn money online”, “click for points”, “click for cash”, “read email for cash or points” or “paid surveys” to find listings for some of these opportunities.

Always read the FAQ at the site before joining to make sure you are of age, and further qualify. Some places will require that you earn a certain amount of points or cash before allowing you to choose your prize, and some places will erase your points if you don’t use them within a certain amount of time, so be sure that you understand their terms before signing on.
