I just found out that there are several copycats to Fiverr out there. Real knock-offs. Same look and feel. I'm not sure why people would join a copycat when they can join the original. The income is practically the...

cluelle From the seller's point of view, it's definitely about casting a wider net. You never know who will find one of those knockoffs before Fiverr, or be halfway through researching Fiverr but decide to click on a link to a knock-off. I've gained a few extra...

This is more of a life thing than a Fiverr thing, so it's not in the money discussions:). So, last year I finally got Paypal, tried out Mturk, learned about transcription. This was wonderful since, because of very stupid and...

cluelle Heh, thank you. I'm not sure I'd use the term "passive" income, since you certainly need to put in the work, but MTurk is basically a task site run by the Amazon.com company. You can do a variety of tasks, but need to exercise good judgment to avoid scammers....

So a long time ago I signed up for a whole bunch of different survey sites intending on doing surveys on-line to make some extra money. I never got to that point. But I recently logged back into a couple of them and I now have...

cluelle I signed up for Toluna and Ipsos-Isay: I dropped Toluna and still receive surveys and payments from I-say. Toluna seemed promising and straight-forward. All I wanted were Paypal payments, and of course they offered extra drawings in contests and such. I'm not...

Thankyou to everyone who offered kind words for my little goat kid that I helped to deliver the other day. He was in a fairly bad way at first and I was quite seriously worried about him as his mum wasn't really interested in him...

cluelle I know how you feel - I have one goat kid in my kitchen right now who nearly died from hypothermia. We brought her in, loosely wrapped two towels around her, laid her over an active heating vent in our floor, rubbed her legs for about half an hour... left to...

Now that Microworkers uses PayPal again I will start back with it again. I will try to put in a couple of hours a day to get my earnings up. I like having PayPal as a payment processor. I didn't like Alertpay at all. It takes a...

cluelle I checked them out again because of this post, but I'm wondering why they still want an address and PIN if they will pay with PayPal. I've never heard of this with any other company I've researched.

cluelle I did see that one, but as the last first-hand account was from 2010, perhaps I should ask if there are workers now who are STILL happy with Appenscribe :). I've noticed many online companies can change character in a short time.

cluelle I always like it when you talk about running your business, and wish you well for the New Year, too :) Tim Hortons franchises are *the* place to go around the holidays over here; a friend of mine gets a huge bonus just in tips when working there.

I've mentioned that I use Fiverr before, and one aspect of the site that drives me crazy is the number of people offering "natural, attractive, bilingual" testimonies. I know times are hard and we all want to make (four) bucks as...

cluelle Most of us in Western countries are actually in the service industry, and the relative value of our money is much less than it sounds like. Even medium-salaried professionals making around $15 per *hour* struggle to stretch that out after taxes, transportation...
