The first site that I’m going to talk about is Greedyclicks.com.  They PAY!!! That is the most important thing.  There is no minimum payout to reach.  As long as you have a penny in your account you can withdraw it to your verified paypal.  considering that I make fifteen cents on ppc alone a day just by doing the one cent clicks it doesn’t seem so hard to make those pennies.

You will also get money for referring people.  There are three levels of referral’s with Greedyclicks.  You, the people you get to sign up under you, and the one’s that they get to sign up under them.

They are an international site.  This means that it does not matter if you live in another country besides the United States.

This is on of the better days on mturk in a while.

Hello again…

I want to start an entry into some of the other forms of money making that I have been involved with online.  I have been able to have some alright cash from the work that was done.  Well, it is actually more of a lack of work that I have done.  The stuff that I consider work wasn’t so kind to me for my time.  However, freebie trading was very generous in the funds that were procured from what I did. You have to find a person that is going to pay you.

There are people out there that want you to sign up for these things and never have the intention of paying you.  This is the most common scam in the industry.  The others, really deal with the scams that are hitting the advertisers.  Getting a bunch of fake referrals and then cashing out the cash from the site in question.  This is why they usually don’t allow proxy servers to do the offers.  You have a different I.P. address every time you get pinged.  These are often the people who will send out large batches of emails (You’ve won a free laptop) in hopes of getting someone to complete an offer, but not fully complete the agreement.  The payment is made for the offer to the person that got you to sign up whether or not you finish any other offers, and then he  never has to pay you, because you never finished the rest of the offers correctly.  How could you?  It’s not like you are working with a site personally.

Rule number one

Never do an offer from an email

Never do any offer from your email that say’s “You’ve won a free PS3″ or anything to the same degree.  They tell you that you have won a prize, but then you have to go to the link that they give you, and re-enter your email address.  Then you enter all your information again into the fields to advance to try to claim your prize.  You’re hit with offer after offer that you really couldn’t care less about.  You finally get to the last page and it says that if you want to claim your prize your going to have to do 2 silver offers, 2 gold offers, and 2 platinum offers.  I’m sure you have all seen them before in bulk to your email.

Rule number two

Always do your research before working with a company

You want to know as much about a company your going to work with.  Information should be readily available online about any credible freebie site.  You will be able to go to such web pages as freeluchroom.com, or one of the many other forums that are on the internet.  I am going to have more posts about these sites later, as I get back into them.

If you are not sure about a site, check Google for the site name plus scam.  See what turns up.  If the site is truly a scam it will show with gross intention.  At least if you get a review of the site before you work with it then you could know how that site works.

Rule number three

Just because the new company is paying out more for the same offer doesn’t mean that the site is paying out.

A lot of new sites will offer you higher bonuses to get you complete the offers on a particular site.  The problem is finding the one that is going to pay, not just top dollar.  I would rather have my little bit of cash in PayPal, then have a ton of cash in an account that I can’t even really touch.  I know it seems like a bad choice, but the companies that have been around longer know more about keeping out the spammers.

Rule number four

Get the opinions of others that have worked with the site before

You can usually get some info from the person that refers you about the site that you are going to work with.  Remember that the person you are likely working with is wanting to get paid too.  Others will have their opinions too and most often times explore them in the forums about freebie trading.

This is actually my first blog that isn’t on MySpace.  I can use this for a number of purposes.  I still haven’t figured out what that one is going to be.  I know that I have to use my keywords wisely.  This is the only way that blogging will workout.

I know that I have to find a good way to make money online.  Maybe, this is the time that I should actually take to build up a  decent blog about money making.  Is there really an honest way out there to make money? I have found some pretty interesting places to check out or maybe not.  I’m going to try to go through and make comments about the days events, or at least the weeks events, on this blog.  This might be: payment proofs from any of the sites that I have worked with, or just reviews about the sites.  I’ve seen it where they have each for the sites they use.  So let’s get creative.

One of the first sites I’m going to talk about is the one site that I have worked with the most.  Mturk.  I have worked with them for almost a year now.  Mturk has been a major pain in the ass, but that really isn’t the fault of Mturk.  Mturk offers a decent service that just has to be monitored better.  The site that I’m talking about is Amazon Mechanical Turk, and Amazon seemingly couldn’t care less about whether or not anyone who works with the site is treated fairly. They have minimal things in place to protect the worker, and a lot more control for those that pay.  Far unbalanced in my opinion.

Mturk, for those of you who have not worked with, or researched it, is a place that deals in the slave wage technological labor of the 21st century.  People, upload jobs that computers have yet to be able to do with accuracy.  These jobs pay out in a reward fashion, which have to be paid for before the job can be posted.  The problem is with the approval, and rejections, which falls in the hands of the requester.  I’m not saying that all requester’s do it, but the numbers are astronomical against those that don’t abuse it.  The approved hits get sent in for payment, and the rejected ones reflect on your hit approval.  If you do two, and one of them gets rejected, then you’re going to get stuck with few options to do any of the better paying hits.  If you live in the United States (which most of the turkers apparently are), and have a bank account, you can withdraw anytime after you have ten dollars in your Amazon payments account.  Amazon Mechanical Turk (Amazon) cares not any further then getting their ten percent.

Here are the two  jobs that I know can pay if you really know how to do them.

• Transcription

• Article Writing

• Photo Filtering

Transcription

These are some of the higher paying hits on Mturk.  If you have a really good ear, know how to type, and punctuate,  then you could probably make fifteen dollars a day.(with possible bonuses on top of the base rate.)  As long as you posses the right skills then this can easily be a job for you.  You will be transcribing all sorts of conversations, interviews, or seminars.  I once had one that was of a school teacher, and a mom talking, with a bunch of children playing, and making noise in the background.  The approval rate is decent, because the grading is often done by a human.  Almost all the hits involving transcription are brought to you by the requester Castingwords.

Article Writing

Article Writing can be accomplished, but at very low rates.  Ranges from fifty cents to two dollars put this in harsh territory.  The rejection rates that some of these people get are ridicules.  College educated people have a hard time understanding the ebb and flow of requesters acceptance in terms of quality.

There are formats that some requesters like that others don’t.

• Did you space it properly
• Is the word count exact
• How many times did you use the keyword
• How great was your punctuation
• Did you double space

One of the excuses I have gotten, were saying that “your article was too long for us to use”.

I cannot help you get any better on these subjects, as their flux is way to complex.

Photo Filtering

There are a lot of very low paying photo filtering hits.  Most of the time you are going to be viewing a fairly large group of photos.  Your job in most of these cases would be to either flag the pornographic photos, or choose which photos are of a certain thing.  These depend singularly on the hits themselves.  They will state if it is of adult origin.  You will most often have to have a qualification to get granted the adult type hits.  The ones that pay quick are not always on, and you might have to wait all day before you can get to do one or two.  The ones that are around a lot more don’t pay out that much for the amount of work needed to complete it.  My problem has been that some want me to go through so many pictures that it takes me forever to load the page.  Then, when I finish the hit, I would get five cents…lol.

Notice to spammers of Mturk

Some of the things I’ve noticed people doing is trying to get referrals from hits.  Spamming the board with bogus reward promises.  Who am I to say whether, or not it works for them, but they almost never payout the reward they promise.  These are disguised as hits to get email addresses, and to get people to sign up for offers that they most often times would not think to get.

This has become a problem all its own.  Not only for the workers of Mturk, but the advertisers that seek to get their product out there to a focused audience.  This sickens me to a point of despair.

To the people posting these hits you are breaking numerous agreements.  Turkers are getting wise to the scam.  Mainly the fact that you never pay.  The turkers are wise to not trust these anymore, and now most of them will submit false information on purpose.  They will enter such emails as eatmyas&@yahoo.com, or blatantly entering Spam@gmail.com into the email field.  I personally find this to be very funny.  The fact is that you want people to be honestly interested in the product.  That is what keeps the economy going.  That is what puts the money into peoples pockets.  They pay out lots of money to get people to really try their products.  To have you make them waste money is rather harsh.  I can see it if you are going to try to get someone else’s ad on Adsense to go over budget, but that is as far as I go on the use of Mturk for your means of making money.

lastly…

I know the games that are playing, and I am going to use them to my advantage, blowing the scams out of the water.  I know how they work, so check back, as I try to update as often as possible, and reveal some of the things that these people are doing.  This will make it so that you can have more control over your money from these offers, and only go for the ones that you are truly interested in.  I will get to those at a later date…

Till Later…
