Hi All, I am Jenn, like most I am here to share and get inspiration on side hustle ventures. I have dabbled in the usual side income streams, including surveys, field agent and designing and selling logos.

I am hoping to take it up a gear in 2021, be more structured and record £ made and how I have invested the funds.
Hi Jenn!

Fantastic to have you on here and posting!

Good to hear you've already dipped your toes into earning online!

Am interested to hear your plans of having a more structured approach to it!

Thanks Jon! I am using the down time I have between Xmas and new year to research and come up with something which is both challenging and achievable - will happily share.

Hello, I am Simon, I was a mystery shopper working for Douglas Stafford who got royally screwed by them this time last year. Currently doing what I can to survive financially but also trying to get justice for all the other workers by exposing all of the wrongdoing, much of it actually criminal.

Hi, I'm Tommy. Joined up a while back but got busy with my studies. Anyway, I'm a Canadian living in the UK. I work in accounting and am studying for my ACCA.

I'm already into matched betting and Prolific which I've been doing pretty casually and make around £100 a month. I'm looking to hopefully double that with some new sources and inspiration from here. Unfortunately, shit London wages don't really line up with the huge London expenses so could do with the extra income.

Hi, I hope you all had a lovely new year. I'm Daryl, full time student studying Computing and I'm 36 and I have a 16 month old daughter. Really hoping to get myself in a position where I can earn £200 a month extra. So far I'm on prolific, Populus and have been using the Be My Eye App. Any pointers would be extremely welcome. I've done matched betting but it makes me a bit nervous so I'm looking to avoid that if possible.

Edit: if an admin comes across this post could they capitalise the 'd' in my username if possible?

Hi Daryl

I imagine BME is quite quiet at the moment due to all the shops now being closed ;(

£200 a month shouldn't be a problem at all, LOTS of info on the Blog and here on the forums.

If you have a question, please just ask, everyone on here wants to help you earn the absolute most you can online!

Hi all, I'm Chris, I've actually visited The Money Shed a few times over the years but never joined! I tend to avoid forums if I'm honest but this one always seems like a pleasant community! Then again I am used to mainly browsing car forums where people love to get opinionated :ROFLMAO:

Hi John, apologies for the late reply, ive been unwell recently, sinus and chest infection which I didn't get sorted out until it made me really ill, so all my available energy has been focused on my university work. I have made circa £50 since I started posting on here, mainly through prolific which I thijnk is an awesome site (albeit very quiet recently) and user-testing (I really love getting these jobs when they're around) which the bulk of my money has come from which is unsurprising given my IT background.

Any recomendations of what is paying decent at the moment?

Obvious starters would be
Risk Free Matched Betting (£500+ a month)
Web Search Evaluator work with Appen or Lionbridge (£500+ a month)
Social Media Rating with Lionbridge (£300+ a month)

Lots more on here so jump in and ask questions ;)

Thanks Jon, that's awesome, I have just signed up to Appen now. I cant seem to find Lionbridge though.

Did you have a refferel link to something to a stock trading place a while back? Im still only running about £20 so apologies if I am being forgetful or mixing you up with someone else.

The only stock trading link I have is this one
Deposit £1 and get a free share worth up to £100

Lionbridge links are here for social media rating work


and here for Web search Evaluator work

or direct

Hi all,

I'm a teacher from the West Midlands looking to make a bit extra which can supplement the income.

I would love to write an eBook, but wouldn't know where to begin or what to write about. I may also have a crack at the matched betting if I can wrap my head around how it works.

Working around my full time schedule (50hrs in work and around 5 or 6hrs on a weekend), I think realistically I could find 10 or 15hrs per week to put towards this sort of work. How much that could pull down, you guys would obviously know better than I!

Nice to meet you all,
M

If you are already doing 50+ Hours a week I would look solely into online work that pays the most for your time and requires the least commitment so I would say matched betting and social media rating with Lionbridge would be the best ones

Interesting. I've never heard of social media rating, so I will definitely look into that as well as trying to find further instruction on matches betting.

Thank you for the pointers!
