Get Paid to Read Email, Play Games or Shop

posted by Leave a Comment

What would you say if I told you you could be getting paid to read those junk emails? Yeah I thought it was a joke at first too but when my mom told me how she was making over $50 a month by reading emails I started to listen more closely. See, my mom is really into all these survey sites but I only use a few. So I decided to try inbox dollars and I’ve already made $2 in a couple minutes. The emails come in a couple times  a day and they are sandwiched between your normal emails anyway so you won’t be bothered by them. They take about 1 minute or less to read and you can even choose to ignore the ones you wish not to read.

You can earn additional money by doing things you normally do anyway, things like playing games online, by taking surveys,  by trying name brand products, and by shopping online.

Attention Bloggers – Coupon Plugin!

posted by 2 Comments

Have you thought about purchasing  Shoppers Haul Coupon Plugin but wondering if it actually does what it claims to do? I have been using the Gold plugin for several weeks now and can say I absolutely love it. When I am at the beach I do not need to worry about trying to get coupons posted because my plugin the posted them automatically. I really love that I don’t need to worry about keeping up with the coupons so this plugin is so great. I especially love  when it’s the end of the month and I know there is going to be an influx of coupons coming through I just set my plugin to draft, then I look through the coupons and choose the ones I want to post manually. Of course, I also have the option to just let them all auto post but I like having that extra bit of control over which coupons post to my site at the end of each month. The best part is I am able to give my readers a consistent flow of new coupons even when I am not at the computer.

Marianne  has worked hard to bring us new updates when requested so there has been a few updated plugins that cost an additional $5-10 but you do not need to purchase the updates it’s there if you want it but absolutely not required. 

A couple days ago she released the latest upgrade and here are the features for it

  •  Option to choose DO NOT SWAP AFFILIATE – This lets you use Brandcaster without swapping to another affiliate.

 

  •  Option to auto-rotate affiliates automatically – This will let you check a box that says Multiple Affiliates. By putting a checkmark in the “Multiple Affiliate” box – the plugin will automatically rotate through your affiliate links listed and start over again for each coupon it pulls. (i.e. 1 coupon, 1 affiliate; 2nd coupon, 2nd affiliate; 3rd coupon, 3rd affiliate till it hits the last affiliate – then it starts over) NOW make even more money from the same readers who print multiple coupons each day!!

 

  • Adjustable Coupon Recap Time – you can adjust your coupon recap time to be the time you want. If you set it for 10:00 a.m. today – it will pull at 10:00 a.m. – 24 hours from now.

 

  •  No COUPONS Released – No Coupon Roundup.

 

  • All the original features of the GOLD plugin are still included so that hasn’t changed – you just get more!!   

With the coupon plugin you can swap affiliates so if you don’t want to use Brandcaster you can swap it for MySavings, Escalate Network or even Logical if you want to. there’s even a brand new upgrade that offers even more affiliates and auto swap. There’s also different levels of the plugin so if you don’t want the Gold version you can downgrade to Bronze or Silver and if you have multiple sites you can purchase a multi site license. You have the option to auto post 10 all the way up to 100 coupons at a time depending on the package you decide to purchase.

Prices for the plugin vary between $15 and $70 for the multi license one. In my opinion it has been worth every penny. Of course you need to decide that for yourself but frankly speaking,  the plugin has been a lifesaver for me. I’ve had it for about a month and I’ve already made my money back, actually I’ve made a little over what I paid for the plugin!

If you’d like to purchase the plugin or simply want more information you can purchase it from Shoppers Haul .

Pinecone Research is Recruiting!

posted by 1 Comment

If you want to get paid to test name brand products then this is the opportunity for you. They are currently recruiting in our area also so this is even better.  There is a high need for Spanish speaking panelists. My mom is a member as well as my husband. Mom gets to try lots of cool stuff. One time she got to try a new set of markers yet to be released and another time a tv dinner company. My husband has gotten to review shampoo and shavings cream plus a razor one time.  You also get paid for each survey that you take and they pay quickly.

 

Click the picture and it will take you to the short screener page where it will ask a few demographic questions to see if you qualify. If you qualify they will send approval usually by the next day.

Great Work at Home Tips

Options For Working From Home


There are so many people out there who believe you can’t really work from home, but in reality there is all kinds of home-based work available. Some are just good for extra cash but others supply an income that would be comparable to a job outside the home, minus the cost of commuting, lunches out, and all those other added expenses that go along with working a brick and mortar job. If you’re interested in working at home, here are just a few ideas of things you can do:

Answer Text Messages
ChaCha & KGB regularly hire text operators to answer random questions people send via text with their phones.The pay is pretty low at either company, but many people choose to do it anyway because not only is it fun, but it’s also a great way to sit around in your PJ’s and earn a little money for doing something relatively easy.  

Data Entry From Home
The first thing to be aware of regarding data entry from home is that most of the opportunities you come across are scams. Fortunately though, you can find legit data entry work to do from home if you know exactly where to look for it. I recommend checking sites like ODesk, Elance, and Freelancer for available data entry jobs. It’s also occasionally possible to find it on sites like Amazon mTurk or Cloud Crowd. A few legit data entry companies include Great American Opportunites, Dion Data, Axion Data, and Key for Cash. The first three of these almost never hire new workers, but Key for Cash does. The pay at Key for Cash is very low, but they do send checks out every week if you’ve made at least $30 in that week.

Forum Posting
People who have just started forums often hire workers to get the conversation going and attract visitors. You can sign up with sites like Post Loop, Kickstart My Forums, and Wired Flame as a paid forum poster. The rate of pay varies and you generally earn more for starting threads than you do for replying to existing posts. 

Tutoring
Do you have your teaching degree? If so, you might want to look into tutoring students from your home online. Two of the more popular sites hiring for this are Brainfuse and Tutor.com. If you don’t have a teaching degree — or any degree — ESL tutoring is also an option. Idapted and Tutor ABC are two reputable sites that hire for ESL tutoring. 

Search Engine Evaluation
A great option for non-phone work is search engine evaluation. Basically what you’re doing here is looking at the landing pages for search engine results and determining if they match the search phrase or not. Work Force Logic, Leapforce, Lionbridge, and Butler Hill all hire search engine evaluators regularly. Although the work sounds easy, it can actually be very challenging. 

Task Sites
Short task sites are usually just good for extra money, but there are some people that are able to turn them into an income. With these sites, the possibilities for work to do is endless. Clients post human intelligence tasks they need done and workers sign in and complete whatever tasks they feel they can do. Some types of jobs/tasks that often get posted on sites like these include data entry, transcription, article writing, commenting on blogs, and more. 

Flexible Offline Work
If you don’t necessarily have to work inside your home and really just need flexible hours, you might want to think about doing some mystery shopping, court research, or merchandising. All three of these jobs let you work whenever you want, provided that the locations you are visiting are open during the time you go. 

Transcription
There are several different types of transcription and the most popular include general, legal, and medical. With all three, you are basically just listening to an audio file and typing out the words you hear as accurately as possible. If you are a beginner, you probably will not be able to land a legal or medical transcription job without any training. However, it is possible to get in on general transcription with no experience. Quicktate, Scribie, and Appenscribe are three websites who will hire beginners to do general transcription. 

Writing
Do you have a way with words? If so, get paid for it! The options for getting paid for your writing are almost limitless. You can sign up with content sites like Textbroker, Writer Access, or Bright Hub and begin earning money for creating unique content. Don’t want to bother with the content sites? Then just market yourself! You can set up a website offering your writing services and then start getting the word out. There are always people who need writing work done.
