An Honest Review of Ways to Make Money Online There are many options for people trying to earn a few extra pounds without leaving the comfort of their computer screen, but only a few are worthwhile. On this page I review a few of the most popular methods. Slice the Pie First up is Slice the Pie, a site which pays you meagre pennies to spend minutes trying to review generic popular music, mediocre amateur music, and jumpers.
The biggest problem with Slice the Pie is that writing a review takes at least a minute, for which you are paid between $0.02 and (allegedly) $0.10, depending on the task, and your "star rating", which varies depending on the average length and quality of your past reviews. Writing short one-minute reviews will likely earn you $0.03 each, which would lead to $1.80 per hour - far beneath the goals of most internet earners, considering the amount of effort. Furthermore, you are likely to run out of things to review well before you earn even one dollar. Oh, and you have to reach $10 before you actually receive any money. Verdict: 2/10. There are far better things that you could spend your time doing.
Qmee Qmee provides a much-wanted break from the norm of having to reach a certain amount before being able to cash out. It also works: in just over three months I have earned a whopping ?3.78. Considering the amount of effort required to raise this amount somewhat justifies using Qmee; the feeling experienced after noticing the green logo appear to the side of your screen, clicking a single link, and seeing your balance increase by 7 pence, is surprisingly satisfying. Verdict: 5/10. Every little helps, right? This Chrome extension is too simple to dismiss. YouGov
