Someone asked me how I weed out legit surveys from junk. Well, I don't do many surveys but I do a few. I like Pinecone Research and although they pay such a small amount, every bit helps.

Treasure Trooper is one I just started with but like. If you have any interest in online surveys and offers, look it over and join if you feel comfortable with it. In their surveys section is a nice list of legit survey companies.

You won't get rich doing surveys but a little here and a little there adds up and it's going to go to my $20 challenge.

I also do some keying for keyforcash.com. I don't think they're accepting new people and I know of a few people who registered in May but still haven't been put to work but it's definitely worth looking into. You just type snippets of text and they pay you for it. You have to make a minimum of $50 for them to pay but the checks go out once a week. During fairly busy times I make $60 to $100 with keyforcash.com.

I used to do inbound telemarketing for West Work at Home. I made pretty good money but the best pay was at night and it got to the point where the prank calls were so bad and so numerous I just stopped doing it. It's a reliable company, though. I always got paid and got the right amount on time.

Associated Content is a content site and I've written a few articles for them. They pay between $3 and $20 article. I've only submitted a few articles and need to write some more. It's a fun and interesting gig if you like to write.

I'll write more later about other online work opportunities I know of or have experience with.
