How to Make Free and Easy Money Online: Using GPT Sites to Your Advantage

Since joining Associated Content, I've been spoiled by making money online by writing articles such as this one. But I've become more anxious to make even more money online, which is why I clicked on a link in the forums about Cash Crate. Cash Crate is one of many GPT sites on the internet. GPT stands for Get Paid To and at these sites you can make money to click on ads, fill out surveys, sign up for free trials and samples, etc.

Some of the offers cost money, but a lot of them don't cost any money at all, and personally I stick to the ones that don't. To make money online, all you need is some free time and an extra email address, and we all have about fifty of those laying around, right? If not, they're free and easy to set up. I recommend gmail because you can add the little dots in your email address and it looks like a whole new email address. A good rule of thumb for making money this way is if you want to try to the service/product anyway, sign up through a GPT site and get some money back in your GPT account. But personally, I'm not signing up for anything I don't already want or haven't had before.

You can make more money if you choose the offers which require a trial or shipping and handling costs. But you don't have to choose these offers in order to make money. To risk nothing, stick to the freebie offers. There are plenty of them, and not all of them confirm but lots do. Here's how to work these GPT sites to make some extra spending cash.

First sign up using real information, including an email that you check frequently. They'll use this email to confirm your membership, send out newsletters (if you opt for them) and email you when an offer is confirmed. Some of the sites will use your real address to send you a check for the money you've made. For those sites that use paypal, be sure to include your paypal email address.

Once you've registered, have a look around the site. Some sites list the most recent payout offers at the bottom of the page. These are the easiest money on the site, which makes them good offers to start with. Find the freebie stuff and click. Maybe you may like to try some of the higher paid offers later. Maybe not. It's completely up to you.
