How to make money at home completing surveys

Online Surveys To Make Money

I know it seems too good to be true that you can get paid to answer a few online surveys, but it’s true! Alas, this will not make you a millionaire, but it could earn you enough to pay for your car insurance for a couple of months, or book a flight to Amsterdam for a weekend city break.

Making Money At Home

Making money at home doesn’t have to be complicated. There are numerous ways to make a bit of extra cash including: online surveys, selling your unwanted items, setting up an Etsy store, or taking on some freelance work.

How Does It Work?

First you need to choose a survey website and sign up. I have found Prolific to be the easiest and most profitable survey website. Unlike other survey websites, on Prolific you complete academic research studies as opposed to market research surveys.

After you’ve signed up you need to provide some basic demographic information to make sure you receive study invitations that you are eligible to complete. These are just basic (perhaps random) questions such as whether or not you own a car, how many hours a week you work, what your favourite brand of teabag is, or whether or not you play any sports.

You’re then ready to go and able to complete studies straight away. Easy peasy.

How Much Can I Earn Completing Online Surveys?

In total on Prolific I have earnt £84.28 and I’ve completed 84 surveys, meaning I earnt on average around £1 per survey. ‘£1 you say? That’s pointless!’. Far from pointless, a key point of Prolific is that most surveys take less than 5 minutes to complete, with some only asking 1 or 2 questions in total. As far as s ide hustles at home go, it’s easy money. Once you’ve earnt at least £5 you can cash out straight away.
