Not everyone wants to work a million hours a week and drive in rush hour traffic for more than an hour.  Some people just want to earn a little extra cash to make life easier and to fill in gaps in their scheduled with something profitable.  In looking around I found a few options you may want to consider:

Virtual Jurors

Yaw, really, being on a jury from home might sound a little scammy but these sites are used for pre-trial testing of a case to see how a jury will react to a trial.  You’re not going to make a bundle and forget signing up for the programs if you are married to or related to an attorney…guess they feel that the spouses of a lawyer are attorneys also.  But hey..how many of you are related to an attorney?

PAY: $5 to $50 depending on the complexity of the case.

SITES: www.ejury.com www.jurytest.com

Website Testers

Now here ya go..how many times have you clicked on a link to a web-site with a Flash Splash Page with a Justin Bieber track playing and you got immediate nauseated?  Well there are a couple of sites that now offer people the opportunity to let the website owner know how you feel about their design and other factors of the sites features.  Again, there are a ton of people wanting to do this, but who knows, depending on your profile and demographic there maybe a few sites wanting to hear what you think.

PAY: Typically $10 per Review

Ticket Grabbers

If you have outstanding typing skills the ticketpuller.com site may be the place for you to make a buck. The deal consist of you going online to grab tickets for popular concerts or other event.  You don’t spent your own money, you work off a company account.

Pay: $50 if you are able to grab a ticket, but no pay if you don’t.

SITE: www.ticketpuller.com

If You Know the Answer

If you are someone who Know Everything About Everything, then here is a money maker for you.  You find answers to people’s questions.  These sites have their user text in their questions and for a small fee they get an answer from a home-based agent..you.

PAY: Average $.10 to $.20 per answer but hey, it is reported that Fast agents have made $9 an hour.

Focus Group Reviews

Back in the day, a marketing company would get a few people in a room to sample a product and offer up a review on what they think.  Now days that is done online..yeah!  Here are a couple of sites that may fit your interest, but, again, don’t think you are going to be reviewing products everyday.

PAY: Depends totally on the length of the study.

Hit People

Yes, there are companies out there who hire Hit people to go around and hitting on items.  Like Amazon who realizes that computers can’t do everything online (yet) and hire people to do “Human Intelligence Tasks” like identifying things in a photo, or video, transcribing audio, giving opinions or doing research. 

PAY: Can range from a few pennies to a Few dollars.

I hope this helps and I have to remind you that I do not endorse any of these services, nor am I getting paid by any of these services to post this info.  I also cannot take any liability to these sites doing what they say they are going to do.  Each of you are big boys and girls..read the terms of Agreements to see what you are REALLY getting into before getting involved.  And as always..be safe and let me know how I can help.
