Constant Content


Application Process: Easy
Pay: Varies by article
Flexibility: 10 out of 10
I signed up with Constant Content and it was easy. Simply, what you do is you fill out a forum to request an account, confirm your e-mail, and then log in. It takes about five minutes in all to do. Then, you click on the Submit Content tab to submit what you would like to sell.
Here is how it works. Say you write an article “How to Clean Your Closet.” The article is about 500 words and well written. You have the option to sell your article for Full-Rights (meaning you are selling the rights and you can’t post the article anywhere else), Unique-Rights (meaning you can sell certain rights to your piece, but not full), and then just usage rights (meaning the buyer can post the content anywhere, but you still have the rights and can sell the piece over and over again).
To submit the article you will have to name the article, upload the article in a word document, write a summary of the article, categorize the article, supply keywords, and most importantly, set your prices. I’ve seen articles for hundreds of dollars sell on the site. However, it seems articles between $10 and $30 sell well for full rights. Usage rights usually go for between $7 and $15. If someone likes your article, but wants to buy it cheaper, they will send you an offer for it.
This sounds wonderful doesn’t it? Writing about what you want and selling it for as much or little as you want. What’s the catch? The catch is that your articles have to be 100% grammar and error free. They will not edit your articles at all, meaning that they will reject it for the tiniest comma problem. They will give you some editor comments on what to change, but these will rarely be specific or cover all the errors. Even if you fix what they asked for, and they find another error, it will be rejected. If you get too many rejections, you will get suspended.
I tried this site when I was still a newbie to writing, and I really wish I would have waited until I was more experienced. I wrote 20 articles or so for the site, but they weren’t very good subjects. Over a few months, I got one offer for one article. I really didn’t put much effort into the site, so I wasn’t too disappointed.
The site is free to sign up for. Another pro about the site is that you can refer people and make money that way if you don’t have luck with the writing portion of the site. I’ve read some reviews from people making a full time income with this site. However, my advice would be to get some experience with other sites before jumping in and doing this one. Your grammar, spelling, and punctuation have to be perfect to make any money here!

Panda Research

Application Process: Easy
Pay: Varies by task
Flexibility: 10 out of 10

Panda Research is a site that focuses only on surveys. The surveys and offers range anywhere from $0.25 to $100.00. The surveys that offer more usually makes you either have a credit card to try a trial or buy something. However, I have done some where all I did was fill out a form with my e-mail and then do the survey to get $3.00. It took only five minutes to do!

Sign up is very easy and you can get started right away. They usually have about twenty to thirty surveys available at a time, with more being added all the time. Let’s say you find a survey that is worth $0.50 and is about Vacation. So you click on it and get to the summary page. You read very carefully what you will need to do in order to get your $0.50. The instructions will tell you exactly what you will need to do to get the credit. In this case, it says to fill out the evaluation with your name and e-mail to receive credit. So you click on the evaluation button and do what you were instructed to do. You then go back to the summary page and click on the survey tab to fill out a couple questions about the site you visited. This is very simple and you just rate the site and process you went through with the evaluation on a scale. In all, this took about three minutes and you got $0.50!

You can also make money by reading paid e-mails. These are e-mails that are advertising current offers at Panda Research. So you not only get $0.01 to $0.25 for reading the e-mail, but you get to see other ways you get to make money. Plus, it is quick and easy!

Some of the surveys at Panda Research confirm immediately while some take a day or two to process. You will receive an e-mail when the survey goes through. Also, you can check the status of your survey on your own by going to your account status tab. This will give you a list of all of the surveys you have ever taken and what their status is.

If it has a green looking clock, it means that the survey was viewed and is pending. If you did not fill out the evaluation or survey right, then the survey will most likely stay at this status until you go back and redo it. However, the downfall is that it doesn’t say if you didn’t complete the evaluation or the survey. So you don’t know which one to redo. I recommend letting it sit for a few days to see if it will process before trying to redo the survey. I’ve had some that took a couple days to finally do through. A grey check means that it has been approved so it will be added to your approved funds. A white exclamation mark with a red background means that your survey was reversed because they suspect fraud or another issue. This can happen if you give the survey wrong information about yourself and they find out. A white X with a grey background means that you viewed the survey but it expired. This happens when the survey is no longer being offered.

PayPal is the only way to get paid with Panda Research, so make sure you get one! Payments are made on the 1st and 15th of a month and in multiples of $50. So if you make $58.99, you will receive only $50 and the left over will count towards your next payment. When you have at least $50, you can request payment. They will not automatically pay you, so you have to remember you will need to request the payment. There is also a mandatory 30 day wait after you request the payment.

Currently, only US citizens can register to get paid with Panda Research. You also have to be 18 years or older. Your email address has to be valid in order to sign up with Panda Research. You cannot use website accelerators or proxy servers. Also, only one account per household is permitted at Panda Research. If you don’t obey the rules, they say you won’t get paid.

I’ve almost made my first $20 with Panda Research. This is with very little effort too. I’ve probably only put an hour into the site to see if it was possible to actually make money. While I haven’t requested a check yet because I am not at the threshold, I have seen others post their checks to prove that it is possible to make real money here. So what do you have to lose?

Cash Crate

Application Process: Easy
Pay: Varies by task
Flexibility: 10 out of 10

Cash Crate is a great way for anyone to make a little extra income. You don’t have to have writing skills, data entry skills, or any kind of skills! You just have to be able to fill out a form to sign up, confirm your e-mail, and complete tasks for money.

There are four ways to make money at Cash Crate:
1.       Through Offers
2.       Through Surveys
3.       Through Watching Videos
4.       Through Shopping

If you want proof that you can really make money with Cash Crate, you can head on over to the site and check out the Payment Wall where real users have already posted their checks. And, just to give you an idea, Cash Crate has over 2 million members around the world.

The other nice thing about Cash Crate is that payout occurs when you reach the minimum of $20 on the 20th of the following month. Some sites make your wait until you reach higher payouts, such as $50 or ever $100. This doesn’t help when you need cash ASAP.

Another way to earn is through the referral program at Cash Crate. You can invite other people you know who want to make some extra cash and you will make 20% of what your referrals make and then 10% of what THEIR referrals make! Sounds pretty good to me! Plus, it is really easy to make money by doing the offers because they are so simple. I’ve read some reviews of people making a full time income with this program.

Anyone can join Cash Crate, however you will need to know English well to complete the offers. Also, you only need to be 13 to join! As long as you put a few hours into doing offers, you can make a great additional income!

Cashle

Application Process: Easy
Pay: Varies by task
Flexibility: 10 out of 10

For those who would like to earn a few extra bucks a month, you should really check out Cashle. There are different sites all over the web that will pay you for doing tasks, clicking on ads, doing offers, doing surveys, playing games, or researching the internet. The need thing about Cashle is you can get paid for all of these things in one place!

As of (May 29, 2011), here are the stats for what was available in ways to make money:
·         All Free Offers: 613 available
·         Marketing Research: 14 available
·         Download Offers: 103 available
·         Service Introduction: 49 available
·         Gambit Videos: Unknown available
·         Daily Tasks: Unknown available
·         Daily Surveys: 1 available
·         $1 Offers: 18 available
·         Click Offers: 0 available
·         Trials and Paid: 288 available
·         Peanut Labs: Unknown available
·         Data Collection: 217 available
·         Gambit: Unknown available
·         Trialpay Unknown available

As you can see, there is a ton of different ways to make money on Cashle. Cashle works with Points2Shop which gives you even more ways to earn. You only need to sign up for one in order to be signed up for both.

You don’t need a credit card to sign up for Cashle and it is completely free to sign up. If you do one of the trial offers or one of the offers requires you to buy something, then you will need a credit card. However, there are over six hundred free offers. So if you don’t want to use your credit card, you don’t have to!

The other cool thing about Cashle is that you can redeem points that you earn at Amazon. Don’t let this confuse you. You earn cash or change the cash to points and use the points at places like Amazon. I looked as some of the prizes that you can buy and they include some really neat electronics, such as an Xbox. You also receive your first $0.50 for simply signing up.

To sign up, you have to be 18 years or older. However, for the younger audience, you can sign up at 13 as long as you have a parent’s permission. Another way to make money on Cashle is to earn by referring other people to the site. You can make up to $1 just for having an American sign up! You can then earn a percentage of what that person will make. But no worries, the money won’t come from that persons earnings, but from Cashles. Seems like a pretty good deal! Everyone wins!

Triond

Application Process: Easy
Pay: Revenue
Flexibility: 10 out of 10

Triond is very similar to all of the other revenue sites out there. Your content has to be original, so it cannot be posted anywhere else when you submit it. However, I read some reviews from other people saying that they would first post their ‘original’ content on Triond and then post the same content elsewhere.
“Reposting” content is one of the great debates of freelance writers. I am currently on the fence on the idea because I can see both sides. “Reposting” content is taking an article and posting it on multiple sites. The negative side of this is that when someone types in a key term in Google, your same article may come up four times, not very helpful for someone looking for more information than what you article provides. I remember in high school I would run into this problem when looking for sources for a research paper. On the earning side of this, “reposting” allow you to reach different social communities. On my Hubs, many of the people who view them are from HubPages community. I’m sure this is true with other revenue sites too. Many of the visitors tend to be from that particular community. So, if you have your article posted on four sites, then you get readers and earnings from those four communities. Like I said, I am still on the fence.
Triond seems pretty simple. You will need PayPal and AdSense to earn from this site! I signed up in five minutes and submitted my first article ten minutes later. You simply follow the directions on the submit form for your content. I found the form easy, but I didn’t like it as well as HubPages layout. I submitted two articles two days ago:


It took about 24 hours to get them approved and were posted yesterday. They show up on sites other than Triond. This can be handy, because your article goes to a site with relative information. For example, click on my Cutting Calories article. You don’t go to Triond. You go to Note Cook. This is a cooking and food website. Same with the Dragon Dictation article, you go to an electronic website, Quazen.
I’m not too happy with my results. I have only gotten two views, both on the Dragon Dictation article. I know it has only been a day within posting, but my Hub articles all had at least two views after the first hour of posting.
Of course, I haven’t earned any money yet. I plan to post a few more articles here and there to see if there is anything to gain with Triond. If someone had the time to post strong-keyword articles on a popular subject, I’m sure they could earn with Triond.
Signing up is free, so you really don’t have anything to lose to join. If you have some spare articles or can easily type some up, you might as well see what luck you can have. I’ve read some reviews where people have been able to make a little spare cash on the site.

Break Studios

Application Process: Easy
Pay: $8
Flexibility: 10 out of 10

Break Studios is great for new writers. The sign up project is easy. You fill out the simple form, confirm your email, and BOOM! You’re in and ready to get started. There is no rigorous application process like other sites. You get paid $8 for every article that you publish. It is less than Demand Studios, but the articles can be as few as 250 words and are very easy to write. Your claim limit is also 10, like Demand Studios. You don’t even have to have a reference for the article like you do with Demand Studios. It sounds great right?

However, all good things must have some down sides. The main problem I have had with them is that sometimes there are zero articles available for claim. Sometimes there may be as many as one hundred articles or so, but this is usually the max. When they add new articles, they often go fast because of how easy they are to write. I’ve had articles that are as easy as “How to Break up With My Girlfriend” and can be written with just general knowledge. Also, unlike Demand Studios, you can only claim 10 and not claim more until your articles get approved. This is a big downside because they often take a week to get back to you.

I like the site because it is easy. Even though you can only do about 10 articles or so a week, that is $80 a week. Plus, it is easy to get started, and FREE! Never, ever, ever pay a single dime to make money. Many sites that ask for money, I have learned, will help you make money. However, this is often money you could have made in the first place without paying the money.
