If you’re looking to make money in your spare time but don’t exactly want to work the graveyard shift down at the local gas station, you should join SurfBounty.com.
You’re not going to be able to quit your job with the money you make. But it’s a great way to get paid for doing all the things you love to do online anyway. Think of it this way. Instead of wasting a bunch of time on Facebook or texting aimlessly to friends, you could get paid in your downtime.
This is how SurfBounty.com works: you sign up for a FREE membership, read emails, shop online, complete offers, and take surveys. Once you do these things, you will get paid through Paypal – you get your cash fast.
As far as payment goes, it varies. You can expect anywhere from $20 to $1.50 depending on what offer you complete. The offers come from SurfBounty.com’s partner companies, which include a wide range of online and offline businesses producing products and services. During a recent scan of the site there were offers from Gevalia Coffee ($10), Tassimo Brewbot ($20), Web2Carz ($1), and DealPal ($4.50).
You can also get samples of products in the mail. It’s always cool to get free stuff, right?
Some of the offers do require you to be a certain age or gender, or live in a certain location. It’s just the nature of products. A man, for example, couldn’t complete a survey on a new type of lipstick – at least not most of the time.
There is no limit to the amount of offers you can take on. Like many of these work-at-home in your spare time jobs, your level of income is dependent entirely upon you. But you could make a couple hundred bucks a month if you put in a reasonable amount of time.
If you think about it… you could pay for your home’s high-speed Internet connection by surfing on the Internet. Ironic, huh?
If you have a day off, why not spend it surfing the web and making cash – real cash – rather than sitting on the sofa watching Matlock? There’s money out there, folks, just waiting for you to pick it up.
Maximizing Your SurfBounty.com Profits
While it may seem obvious to you that you should take on the highest-paying tasks on SurfBounty.com, you should realize that the reason they pay so much is they require more work from you. So experiment. Maybe you can finish a bunch of $1 tasks quickly and make more money than spending more time on a task that pays out $20.
The call is yours, and like I said, experiment. See what works for you. If you have a short attention-span, short surveys and emails might be the perfect fit for you. If you can sit still for an hour, on the other hand, and focus on one particular task, those higher-paying, more labor-intensive tasks might suit you better.
Some Tips For Working in SurfBounty.com
*Set up a separate email account devoted to SurfBounty
* Don’t believe all the hype… you’ll see lots of offers of free iPads, but keep your eye on what counts: money.
* Devote a set time each day to complete these offers; one hour a day is good
The Bounty That Is Waiting for You
So let me be honest here: making serious money from SurfBounty.com is not a walk in the park. It takes time. It takes patience. It takes concentration. It’s not exactly work, but it’s not the same as surfing Wikipedia for fun.
If you’re interested in making money, you need to adopt a serious mind-set. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun work and the payoffs can be great and delightfully unexpected.
I’ve been a member of SurfBounty.com for about a month and already I’ve received five dollars cash in the mail, a sample of Pledge cleaner, and a freeze dried pack of Seattle’s Best Coffee (and not some single-serve pouch of coffee, either; I’m talking enough to make two pots of premium coffee).
And I got all this 100% free. It took a little time on my part; I had to fill out a few surveys I found redundant. But hey, that’s the name of the game. And really, in the end, you’re getting paid to surf the web. If you can handle that much, who knows what treasures will show up in your mailbox?
By the way, SurfBounty also offers an affiliate program. Get others to sign up for the service and you get paid… again!
One last thing…
Over the past couple of months, I’ve highlighted several similar money-making opportunities, including Mechanical Turk, Fiverr, and CashCrate. Each allows you to make a decent amount of cash for a couple of hours of work at a time. Why not consider tackling several of these opportunities at once to really maximize your spare-time income?
Something to consider.
I wish you the best of luck!
