Lunch hour income??? possible?

Options
Ok here is the Question...

I have a one hour lunch break each day at work (when i take it) and a good 10hrs free most weekends (with internet access). the minimum wage is over £5 per hour. if i could make a few quid an hour minimum i would be happy.

Ideally i would like ot use this time (boss said its fine) to create a little more income.

can anyonesuggest the best ways and most secure ways to create a little more income? i have looked athe survey idea but am a little worried i might end up being victim of a run away company (were they wont pay up)

Thankyou. (PS good company names that are good and secure would be good too)

    I do not believe that you will get anywhere near £5 per hour doing surveys as it rook me 2 years to earn £50 from Yougov.

    1. Find something you really love and use that to service a niche market. Then, sell your goods or services on the internet using SEO techniques to get eyeballs to your page(s). A 12 year old lad at school earns £50 profit per week from one such.

    2. Try internet affiliate marketing.

    3. Multi level marketing, offering products or services that you are happy to recommend to others.

    Take a look at the mystery shopping thread, very handy especially if you work in a town centre. Good Luck

    Could you make cards or bake cakes to sell at work ??
    Or maybe do Body Shop at Home - but at work ! Or Avon or whatever.

    Or maybe do dog walking? Typing ? CV Writing ?

    Create a free blog (blog spot or word press), write about something that interests you and get a high page rank (google how to increase PageRank) for your blog. Then websites with similar niches will pay you to have their link on your blog. I know people who make about 200$ a month from this.
