Any ways of making money (<£100) in an easy but time consuming way?

if you're doing that look for items that have been mis-spelled. there's a couple of sites around tat can search for stuff like that to make things easier too

Don't give all the secrets away, If they want to earn then my lead will get them there & the rest of it they will find out. Putting it all out there & everybody will do it ruining the deal for all. ;)
 
I hear YouGov is reliable, but it takes an awfully long time to get anything out of them. I think you can only cash out when you have £50 worth of 'credits', which takes probably a few months to amass if you do every survey they offer you. I was doing it, but to be honest with you it is just mind numbingly dull.

As you've first hand experience of it how does it work, can you refuse payment if you deem the work not up to scratch? How do you select who to choose? Certainly something I hadn't heard of before and will look into, thanks.

Yes the money is held in escrow until work has been signed off. I have always been happy with the work that has been done for me so have never use any of the facility’s to refuse payment or anything. You can set milestone which can release cash as each target is met. They have some work view thing that I haven’t used which I think just screen shots the desktop every 5 minutes or so of the person doing the work so that you can monitor their progress and check they are actually putting a bit of effort in.

Basically what happens is someone will put a job up and you can apply with a proposal and a price. The person who posted the job can then choose from the proposals and award the jobs.

there is all sorts on there from building websites, to writing article, email campaigns, link building and making spoof facebook accounts. Defiantly worth signing up and see what it is about, you wont make a fortune from it but its good pocket money!

is that the one where you get some free bets and pay to bet for the opposite outcome, meaning you will make some money no matter what?

That's one form of it but from experience the "free bets" companies offer come with so many conditions it's not as easy as it seems to be.

The main form of 'arbing' doesn't use free bets, but instead you analyse the odds of thousands of markets from hundreds of bookmakers looking for instances where two bookies disagree and you can make a profit by betting on either outcome with each bookmaker.

It only works where you have a close match up though, so for example lets say ladbrokes are offering decimal odds of 2.1 on Andy Murray beating Federer but Bet365 is offering 2.1 on Federer winning, you bet on each and whatever the outcome you'll come out with 0.1 profit.

You can actually get programmes that do a lot of this searching for you but arbers aren't looked on kindly by bookies, if you are discovered they may cancel you account or even refuse to pay out entirely.

survey sites are a waste of time unless your still getting pocket money from your parents.

£50 = 5000 points on YouGov, I do it as it's zero effort really and it's taken about 18 months to get to that figure doing every survey they sent out (note some are prize draw surveys you don't get points for). I have had best part of 900 points since the beginning of July though, on top of the 5000, so they're adding up nicely again.
