GPT sites or get paid to sites are actually growing in popularity. These sites are surveys and e-mail sites that anyone can do to make a few extra bucks. But is this really a way to make a full time living? The answer to that is most likely NO! But you could pay your car payment every month or chip in on the cell phone bill, or just go shopping. So if you are looking for a job that has no start up fees and you have some extra time because you are nocturnal or your kids are taking a nap or are at school then check out some GPT sites.

If you are a private person then this may not be for you because they do ask you for some of your personal information. Not your social security number or anything but your address and phone number and you do not know if they are selling that information or not. So if you want possible solicitation calls all day everyday then be careful who you give your information to.

There are lots of ways to make legitimate money from GPT sites such as free offers and surveys, these are the best by far because they don't take that much time to do and you get paid for every survey or offer you complete.

When taking surveys sometimes you have to complete an offer such as buying a subscription to a magazine or buying something and then you get free points or a gift card, so this is an added benefit for you and you get paid to do it.

Reading e-mail is another GPT idea that is getting more and more popular. A company sends you e-mails and you are paid to click on the link in the e-mail and browse around the site for a while. You get paid anywhere from .40 to .90 cents for each e-mail you do this on. You can see how if you had a lot of time on your hands you could make some decent money.

Like any online business out there there are people just waiting to take your money. These sites are free and usually don't want any money upfront to have you join. Usually the only money that you are asked to pay but certainly don't have to is offers to get a free gift card or something similar to this. If a site is asking you to pay to join make sure it is a legitimate business first. Do some research and make sure that they are just not trying to take your money.
