Earn £10/Day Marching into March

Welcome to the March thread everyone.

The idea of the thread is to earn a bit of extra cash. There are a few ways to do this. I'm sure some of our regulars can add to this. But here's some ideas.

www.connect.appen.com this is a site where you can sign up for micro projects and some longer term projects.
www. crispthinking.com social media moderation
www.lionbridge.com projects
www.utest.com user testing
www.prolific.co surveys
www.intellizom.com short one off tasks
www.clickworker.com short one off tasks

I'm sure I've forgotten loads. If you want to look over previous months, there are loads of pervious threads in this section.

For those who are on B*ne on Appen, do they generally get a new batch every month?
Just trying to work out how much to aim to earn in April!

MollysMum09 · 31/03/2021 14:18

I've been doing the surveys on Appen - the auto invoiced ones. Those are nice and easy but will take a while to hit the cash out threshold for payoneer though. Nice to have them ticking away in the background though so hope they continue for a while.

I signed up to Lionbridge today but I can't see how to access the projects or anything. Do I need to wait for them to email me? When I log in, I just get a dashboard type thing with very little on it.

No, it's not every month unless they say so but things change then sometimes. It's definitely not guaranteed work.
Frenchdoors1 · 31/03/2021 14:21

Can also go for months on end without any.

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 14:36

@Frenchdoors1 ok thanks, won't count on it then and if it comes through then that's a bonus!

Catatemyhomework · 31/03/2021 14:38

@rhij86, I think B@ne was supposed to be every month but then we had that dry spell for 6 months where we had nothing as they were making changes. According to chat they are making more changes apparently, so as @Frenchdoors1 says, it's anyone's guess. I am hoping to get work on it in April. Going to try and do as much as I possibly can, kids permitting!

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 14:46

@Catatemyhomework same, if we get more work through on it, it will definitely be my priority!

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 14:57

Another Appen question sorry Grin - is anyone else on Crscet?
How are you paid?

TwistedSisters · 31/03/2021 15:37

Hello all
Long time lurker, very inspired by the earnings on this thread. I've applied for some Appen projects and they now say application in progress. How long does it usually take for them to review an application? Do they generally accept? Sorry new to this and haven't got much clue how it all works.

I’ve been on potato for a year or so after a 9 month wait. My first few months were exactly as it is now. End of last year was crazy busy and not the norm. I like it, there’s always work, but it’s a slog to get to £10 when the queues are low. I have prolific and user testing open in the background and jump on them when they come up.

Aspen pays better, but is more much Adhoc. B* was a great earner, but I haven’t manage to get on it this year.
i think it’s important to have as many income streams as you can fit in, so I’m going to give LB a proper go this year, I always gave up when I saw the studying involved.

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 16:39

@Redcrayons I definitely agree with having multiple streams. I was accepted onto a LB project about 18months ago but was removed for non work. Don't know if I'm banned from other projects now? Or even how to check?!

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 21:18

I'm doing some last minute potato peeling tonight, trying desperately to hit that 1000 🤞🏼 it's going a little bit quiet again now though 😩

Buster27 · 31/03/2021 21:22

@TheLolaMontez same.. didn't mean to save it so late but was busy on an Appen project this month so the month slipped away Blush

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 21:23

Have you got many to peel @Buster27 ?

Buster27 · 31/03/2021 21:28

@TheLolaMontez Around 100, I should probably keep count in case dashboard doesn't update for a while! What about you?

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 21:30

Around 400 Blush I don't think I'll do it, I've had some wine too and I've got music on so I'm not sure it will happen 🙈

Buster27 · 31/03/2021 21:37

@TheLolaMontez Ah been there, wine might help Grin If the content stays up it's doable! (Well depending on how much wine you have maybe!)

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 21:40

@TheLolaMontez what's this magic figure of 1000 about? Worried I'm missing something now 😅

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 21:40

I'm in glass number 2 Grin at least I'm enjoying myself. Having a little boogie whilst waiting for it to load another item 💃

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 21:44

On potato @rhij86 - you are required to do 1,000 items per month

Buster27 · 31/03/2021 21:45

@TheLolaMontez Very tempted to join you, although I reckon I'd be pissed pretty quickly with how long I'm waiting at times Grin

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 21:47

@TheLolaMontez ohh are you? Bugger me I never knew that 😅 I think I'm ok this month but currently hiding in the bath away from the baby before I have a breakdown, so whatever I've done will have to do!

rhij86 · 31/03/2021 21:51

@TheLolaMontez just managed to check the dashboard and I'm ok, luckily the start of the month was decent for me!

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 21:53

Phew! That's good Smile I'm still clicking away.

TheLolaMontez · 31/03/2021 22:09

Go for it @Buster27 we can have a virtual potato party Grin
