Using online site to make some cash?

I'm not bothered about not making much, just a little extra cash will do. But do I have to claim tax or is it legal to use without being taxed?

What are the best sites to earn from - I don't want vouchers or anything just a little cash.

Thank you.

    Any incomings earned, online or offline, should be declared to the taxman. It is illegal to earn money without paying tax on it, but whether you feel they will pursue you for small amounts, or amounts where you won't be due to pay tax is up to you.

    Personally I'm registered as self employed and declare it all, even though I'm usually just under the tax threshold, and I pay voluntary national insurance contributions, it isn't worth the risk to me as my husband has a job which would be affected if I was to be prosecuted for anything related to fraud.

    Some of the good websites that I use for surveys include My Survey, GlobalTestMarket and Clixsense.

    Good luck to you.
