    Making money online...

    NO not webcams for the OH and his mates but ways to make a few pennies back from buying online or just clicking a few links a day.

    These are my referral links if you do sign up post yours too.

    E-cashback This one lets you get money back for shopping online at stores like amazon.

    archerfish This ones a pay to click site, you click on the ads and leave the window open for the specified time (about 15-30 seconds) then get credited the amount it works out at 4 pages per 1p but theres alot of sites to click and most are avaliable daily, plus emailled links (max 10 per day).

    So far had a few cheques from ecashback and am close to a paypal pay out on archerfish (£3 min, although other options are avaliable) and the friend who referred me has had a few so they are reliable.

    So anyone got any other recommendations, Im a member of a few others but dont know if theyre any good yet.

    I've signed up with 2 online market research companies, they are german ones however, I get vouchers for Karstadt from one, 5 euros per study and amazon ones from the other.
    May be worth a shot googling for uk ones

    Afew survey sites I use, all payout as they claim although the rewards you can claim are somewhat uninspiring for some of them.

    valued opinions
    Harris Poll Online
    Zoom Panel
    Global Test Market

    My favourites are valued opinions (pays out a range of vouchers) and globaltest market (pays out a cheque for $50 but converted to your local currency).

    Re: Making money online...

    Another linky to help anyone interested in earning a few extra pennies Myhomepage basically at the moment its a search engine that pays you for searching - the rate seems to be about 2p a search at the moment, the payment threshold is £20 so takes a fair while to get to the payout but I got my first payout from them a couple of weeks ago, took just under 2 months to earn it but I use it at work as well as at home.

    Must admit I joined up to YOUGOV (not sure if was you or not Scuba that mentioned it) yes, they have promised to send me £'s BUT nearly every survey takes about 20 mins (which is a lot when you come home from work and want to chill) and I have been inundated with emails from crap companies that I have no interest in.

    Please, all, bear in mind a lot of these sites just sell on your email addy.

    That's why you open up a seperate email account for them....

    Re: Making money online...

    True although the worst of the sites Ive tried out I wouldnt even think of recommending, so far these seem fairly good at not selling your details on. Although Im surprised the yougov is bad for it they generally have a fairly good rep although their surveys can take an age to complete.

    Re: Making money online...

    Hi,
    It's not quite making money online, but have you considered becoming a Kleeneze distributor?
    I presume that in married quarters you have to provide for yourself much the same as anyone not in the forces - Kitchen products, cleaning materials etc.
    Kleeneze have a fantastic range of over 2000 everyday products presented in a catalogue form which sells itself.
    As a distributor all you have to do is deliver and collect the catalogues, collate the orders and deliver the goods to your customers, there is absolutely no selling involved whatsoever.
    The pay starts at 21% of all sales and increases up to 37% with sales volume bonuses.
    You can work whatever hours suit you, increasing and decreasing the time you put in when your OH is posted as you wish.
    Typically in civilian life you can expect to earn £400 - £600 per month for working 10 - 15 hours per week.
    The Kleeneze opportunity is available anywhere in the UK, Ireland, Germany, and the Netherlands, so if you get a long term posting and move to Germany (for example) you can take your business/income with you.
    Kleeneze is a reputable company accredited by the Office of Fair Trading, and are founder members of the Direct Selling Association (like ABTA for travel agents)
    Please take the time to look at my website www.moreleisuretime.co.uk
    and if you're interested either complete the webform on the last tab "What Next" or call me on 01796458172.
    It's a fantastic company to work for, with full FREE training, support, and encouragement from all those above you in the company and I think it would be ideally suited to a forces spouse looking for a bit of spare cash from their free time.

    Re: Making money online...

    My wife and I did the kleeneze thing. It was actually okay for the first few times but then people get sick of the same old stuff, most of which you can get in Poundland and the likes. Then people started binning the catalogues which were a quid each. Not worth the bother.
    I set up simple websites for people and add a few google ads in them. I got my first cheque from google the other day for sixty squids. took about six months but minimum effort on my part.
    Beeswaxing by post is my best earner by far, though it does ruin my evenings and weekends these days.

    Welcome moreleisuretime.

    I've spent too much of my married life dodging Kleeneze-mongerers (yes I know it has a double meaning) at my door. They slap a brochure through the letter box completely unsolicited and then expect you to hang on to the catalogue of tat for x amount of days until they can bother their arrse to come back and collect it. No, I don't want a self cleaning bog roll thank you very much. The brochure hits the bin just as soon as it flops onto the doormat with the begging sticky label attached saying 'please leave for collection on Thursday'. If you want it, it'll be in amongst the kids tea scrapings. Help yourself.

    Anyway, good luck with the venture!!

    WOW £60 for six months work - move over Rockerfella

    Right from the start anyone who makes a half decent effort with Kleeneze WILL earn around £10/hour (and we're obliged to prove any incomes that we claim by the Office of Fair Trading OFT)

    I'm doing the Kleeneze thing right now and so far my best months pay check has been £2413.12
    My very first full month paid £1373.34

    Yes some people will bin the catalogues but if you work a half decent system, once someone hasn't returned the catalogue you don't give them another one - fairly simple really. And £2000 buys an awful lot of catalogues!!

    I don't know how long ago you were a distributor, but nowadays Kleeneze make a point of producing seasonal 'specialogs' and change the main catalogue every six months so there's always something new for our customers.

    But the basic products don't change because they don't need to - Anyone out there got a mankey oven? Get hold of a bottle of OvenMate it's £8.00 a bottle but if IT doesn't clean your oven NOTHING will!!

    Re: Making money online...

    I love Kleeneze!

    I've never actually bought anything from them but the look on my husband's face when I tell him we need a self-deoderizing, non-iron, super absorbant flexi-doormat that plays Jingle Bells in 12 different languages when you look at it is worth taking the catalogue out of the bag for.

    You're supposed to give the catalogues back??? Well, every day's a school day. I thought when someone puts something through MY letterbox it becomes my property? Afterall, no one forces them to do it.....

    Re: Making money online...

    Any decent system works on next day collection,
    and unless you've had rubbish distributors the catalogues should all look pristine and come in a 'zippy bag' so if you don't want it just put it on your doorstep as soon as you get it.

    If you were to add a little note saying "Please don't deliver again to this address" then you wouldn't get another one (at least from that distributor) and you could feel good about yourself for doing a fellow human being a small favour which cost you nothing.

    Perhaps if the catalogues you've received are TAT you're mistaking Kleeneze with Betterware? :lol:

    At the end of the day whether the distributors you've encountered are good, bad or indifferent, they're just trying to make a living.
