    Oh i see what I have done. Seems to be two sites one with just surveys for one poll and another being some kind of reference site.

    Anyone recommend any where the cash out is a little quicker, this £40 will take a while to cash out I think.

    thanks

    Quickest cashout would be eBay and the like since once something is purchased you usually get the money within a few days at the most.

    What kind of skills do you have or interests etc. that you could put to use online? Have you read the stickies at the top of the forum such as the Mystery Shopping and other threads around? You can also use the Search to specify just the Up Your Income section using the bottom right box and search for any jobs/work that might interest you e.g. "surveys".

    You may find some ideas in the following threads:

    Yeah - you won't post any items out that you sell on ebay until you receive payment.
    Avon Lady since 2009 - I help on the Avon hints & tips thread to help other reps/new sales leaders as I was helped so much by it when I first started out :A

    Cool, if you have any other questions about eBay seems there is a section of the forums dedicated to it:

    Interests I have is all types of sports.

    Hmm if you can write at all you could consider doing a sports website or blog and do affiliate marketing/Google Adsense from it. But unfortunately it takes time to build up so focus on eBay first if you want quicker methods only.

    You could possibly do accountant/financial consultancy via the web on a freelance basis. Typing jobs I don't knowof any sites personally but do a search of the forums and there are lots of previous threads. DJing you could also do as a freelance basis. For the freelancer type jobs you'd have to do your own self-marketing though to get jobs so again, not quick but higher paying than surveys etc. and there are lots of sites and forums about freelancing you could look into.

    Thanks a lot for the tips.
  • hi can i please please erm 'advertise' something?? Probably been mentioned in this forum before..i have no affiliate or link or am not making anything, but i totally believe it will make me money (one day........) it is called internet marketing. Simple as that google it, or look on lots of whatever forums you want (dont want to be seen as a spammer!). BUT saying that i do want to point people to a thing called thirty day challenge. google it, youtube it i dont care, it is nothing to do with me. But it is highly addictive and fun, and what is more, looking and speaking to people it seems that it works and could work for me, or you!!

    A cool site (again NOT my own!!) is calle affiliates for you (sounds spammy i know, but ive been there for a few months and have had loads of help building sites and generally offering a hope for me!)

    Please please heckle or shout, but at least check it out. costs nothing to look. the thirty day challenge was set up by an australian guy to try prove he could show anyone how to make a dollar on line(not much but it is the principle!!)

    I havent yet but have bought a few domains and am hopeful - please AGAIN note im not offering my sites, selling anything or really trying to direct anyone anywhere other than to google internet marketing or affiliate marketing, it prob has lots of info on this here site but i havent checked, just read this thread ant thought id throw my 2 pence worth in.

    There you go, just some food for thought

    Regards

    Alan

    (by the way im not an expert so dont expect some serious advice here, just seek and find yourself, im hooked anyway..........)
  • well its a complete waste of time.. most of the things they offer are labourous work going through middle men

    Is it survey sites? or using cashback sites to get money back from shpping? Any others?
    There are a lot of opportunities available for you. You can search the forum as well for topics in earning additional income.

    Here are some ideas though: be an affiliate, sell stuff on eBay, do some freelance work online, get a second job, etc.
