Looking for some very specific types of money making sites

I'm looking for some sites I can recommend to people who are bored and want to waste some time online by playing games, etc for money or points. I need some recommendations so I can sort through and choose the best for the people on a newsletter of mine. What I am NOT looking for. PTC paid to click GPT get paid to paid to post traffic exchanges autosurfs HYIPs Survey sites Article writing sites What I am looking for. Fun sites that do not require a lot of time, etc. Sites that you play games or enter draws, etc. Those are perfect. Also, sites where you get paid to post an opinion could maybe work... but not to sure. So far I have these sites: Moola Winzy Prizetune I am not sure if Netwinner is still around, but I refuse to suggest that one. Another site I think would work well is BzzAgent, but there is no benefit to referring people to it. Please provide any sites you can suggest and description of how people can earn money. If I decide to use that program for the newsletter, I will be certain to join under you. So please, help me out Mylot!

I think FutureGame meets your requirements. It's a game in which you predict the price of currencies and/or gold (formerly stocks as well, but they could no longer afford the price of the data feeds after their provider jacked up the price!) at thirty second intervals. As a game, it IS a bit dry as you can imagine...but you make money based on your streaks of correct predictions and an iPod is given away every day and a MacBook every month to the best predictors. One thing that is cool about the site is that it's been around long enough that there are lots of winners around -- it's pretty reassuring to talk to people who've already received iPods when you're just starting out. Another possibility is GuessClosingPrice. It's a stock prediction game -- you guess what the closing price of a stock will be and get points based on how well you do (have you guessed yet that I have aspirations of being an investor?!). The top three players and five other players selected randomly get gift cards. Not as good as cash, of course, but I recently won a random draw so I like this site at the moment. Gamesville is probably the most fun games site that might also pay you, but since it just awards sweepstakes entries for playing the games you're also highly unlikely to win any money. It's a great time waster, though. These sites are all targeted towards US visitors and may not allow people from other countries to join (I know FutureGame is US only, not totally sure about the other two). Only FutureGame has a true referral program.

They all sound good, as long as their is a benefit to referring people. Also, it can be available to US only or worldwide, I'm not worried about that. If they are referral based, please send me your referral links via message. Thank you kindly.

Amigo Bingo is a fun game site and also has a referral program. Pogo is fun and you win points. Many fun games for all. Warning Addicting. benefit: relaxing. Pick Jack is a relatively new site where you answer multiple choice questions and can post questions. they pay regularly by PayPal and appears residual. IE: I haven't worked that site for some time and continue to get payments. Another site is Platinum Lounge where there are a number of ways to earn, post questions, answer and earn. All the above I have referral links to except for amigo bingo. If you are interested in signing, I'd appreciate a PM so to give you the referral links. Success to you! PS" Love a copy of your news letter when it's done ;)

I am very interested in some of those sites. Why do you not have a referral link for Amigo Bingo? Do you not benefit from it or do you not play it? I do have a pogo account, but I didn't realize I could benefit from referring people.. I thought the site was just for fun. So can I earn for referring? Can I have a link for Pick Jack? Also, I will look at Platinum lounge, so send me that one as well, although it does not sound like what I'm looking for it's worth a look. I accepted your friend request. Cheers!

I'm assuming then that the odds of earning from referrals is quite low then? Thanks heartbreaker, I appreciate you sharing your experience.

Pickjack is a huge waste of time. I joined spent 15 minutes on there and earned, wait for it a massive 1 cent lolol.

I know what you mean. That is all I am interested in really anymore expect for mylot cause I got sick of all the nonsense and just want to have fun. So for some fun there are a couple more I can add. There is Kixibox that has games and many other stuff. It is for points for prizes, it is slow but if you are bored and like the games then it is cool. There is Prizeland which is just started but it is us only and I am Canadian. There is chapmans kidsclub for Canadians, this is points for prizes for kids which is fun. There is unikd which is from kraft and I think Canadian too. Pogo is a huge one that many people like but I got frustrated with it. Prizee which is france based but still lets other countries join but only get smaller gifts for points. All these are free to join and cost nothing to earn points and get prizes. You do not need referrals for any of these sites to be able to get a cashout prize. But like anything like that, they are slow and can at times get boring. Also look into surveys cause I think you can get referrals from some sites with those and there are many in the US.

Thanks for your reply. I'm looking for only sites that help you earn if you have referrals. I do not intend on personally being active. If any of the sites you suggested (except for prizee because I already belong there) can allow me to earn for just referring, please send me your links via message. It is really appreciated. Oh, and it can be US, Canada or any country. Doesn't matter.

I have a couple listed on my website that is found in my blog. You can find that easily via my profile. It's not much earned via those types of sites. However, they require so little time. I am right there with you, SteroDiva about Netwinner. Last I heard they were under investigation by North Carolina state.

Yes, netwinner really messed up. I'm impressed that the authorities took interest. Can you list some of the sites? I posted here cuz I do not want to go through tons of various sites to see what might be the best. Just list the ones that may fit into what I'm looking for and if they look like I can use them, I'll use your link. Cheers!

If any of these allow for the person referring to earn for referring people, than I would be very interested. Please send me the links via message. I would like the trivia points one. Regardless whether it's raffles or saving points. Also, the link for the D & D one and search one... but not homepage friends please. But again, only the ones that are referral based. A huge thank you. =)

What you really want is quite tricky, and I am not sure what you really can find it or not. What about opinionpost, it is a website you can enter some opinion post to, or take on some survey. It wasn't that fun for me though. So, take a regard, it is not that easy to find a website that is really let you play game and earn money.
