4 Beginner-Friendly Ways to Earn $100 Online — Step-by-Step Guide & Transcript

[00:00] If you search for ways to make money online, you  will find thousands of videos. And most of them   talk about building a business, learning a new  skill, or investing money that you might not have   yet. But what if you just want to make your first  $100 online with no experience and no investment  

[00:15] just to prove to yourself that it is actually  possible? I've been testing ways to make money   online since 2016. And I can tell you there are  methods that are generally beginner friendly where   no special skills are required. And that can get  you to $100 if you approach them the right way.  

[00:31] And in this video here, I'm going to cover four  of them and explain what you can realistically   expect. So, before we get into the methods, I  just want to talk a little bit about what to   expect because $100 online is definitely doable,  but how fast you can get there depends on several  

[00:47] different things. For example, your country,  of course, how much time you put in, and also   the methods you use and which methods fits your  profile and your interest the best. Because the   reality is that in some countries, you can reach  $100 with three methods within maybe already a  

[01:03] week or two if you're consistent. And in others  it might take quite a bit longer, but no matter   where you live, it definitely is still possible.  One thing you just need to completely avoid is   to think that it will happen overnight because  that's just not how it works to make money online.  

[01:19] There will be a period where you are figuring out  what works for you. Then it gets easier and your   earnings also can become more consistent. However,  I just want to make it clear that the methods I   will show in this video here are not ways to make  a living or anything like that. It's not a way to  

[01:35] become rich or start a full-time income. What  I will show you are realistic ways to earn some   extra money on the side and they are perfect  for getting you started right away no matter   your background and no matter your experiences. So  with the expectations set, let's now jump into the  

[01:50] first of the methods I want to show you. So the  first free method I want to show you is to use   what's called GPT sites. It's also known as get  paid to sites. And these are platforms where you  

[02:02] can earn by, for example, completing offers, playing  games, downloading apps, signing up for free   trials, watching videos, answering surveys and  more. And two good options are for example Gemsloot   and Freecash. Both of them are platforms you  can join from all countries. Free ash is mainly  

[02:18] if you live in a so-called high-inccome country,  but both platforms are some that you can join from   all countries and find different payout methods  and also many different ways to earn. And I have   tested hundreds of different get-paid-to sites and  these are two of the highest-paying ones and they  

[02:34] as mentioned have flexible payout methods also  which is definitely great. So whether you want to   get paid in cash, gift cards or crypto then you  can do that on those. The key with get-paid-to   sites is not just to grab whatever offer a gaming  offer or whatever comes up first because there are  

[02:50] many offers and not all of them will be worth it.  So you need to go to the offer walls look at what   the top earners for example are completing. You  need to make sure to look at the exact conditions   for each offer because some they may look good but  then when you look at the conditions what you need  

[03:05] to do to earn and all that it might not be worth  it anyways. So just choose wisely and once you   learn which ones are worth it for you which type  of offers and all that then it definitely can be a   great way to earn some extra money on the side. I  also have a list of the best get-paid-to sites on  

[03:19] my website. These are just two examples. So I'll  leave a link to that below there. You can also   find full tutorials, full description, join links  for these platforms also and also videos with   payment improvement, all that. So I'll leave links  to that below if you choose to use this as one of  

[03:32] the methods. And just to mention also, you don't  have to just choose these two sites or just one   of them. You can join several get-paid-to sites  eventually if you want to scale up on this method.   But before deciding, let's move on to the next  method. Also, the second method I want to talk  

[03:47] about is paid surveys because paid surveys is just  one of the absolute fastest way to start earning a   bit of extra money online. Not everyone likes paid  surveys, but because it is so easy to get started   with, we definitely have to talk about it here.  Two options you can quickly get started with is  

[04:04] for example Pawns app. It has both an app for iOS  and Android devices and a website. You can find   quite a lot of surveys here from all countries.  Another one is Branded Surveys. If you live in the   US, UK or Canada, this is really great and user  friendly both also website and app. But again,  

[04:18] these are just two examples. But one thing  you need to be aware of when it comes to paid   service is that often people give up. They maybe  join survey sites, they try a few surveys, then   they get disqualified and then they just give up  and think it doesn't work. And this is the wrong  

[04:33] way to start doing paid surveys in my experience.  Because what actually happens on most survey sites   is that the more active you are the better the  platforms gets to know your profile and the more   it knows about you the better the match becomes.  So then in many cases if you just keep being  

[04:48] active you'll also start getting access to more  surveys and in many cases also even higher-paying   surveys and also qualifying for more surveys. And  when you also figure out which type of surveys you   qualify for then you will also just pick and  choose and it will all become easier. So you  

[05:04] need to have a bit of patience. It's not something  that you just figure out by just trying to take a   few surveys. So, give it a couple of weeks of  regular activity and then you will definitely   notice the difference. But how good an opportunity  paid surveys are depends a lot on your country. In  

[05:18] some countries, you can earn $100 fairly quickly  just from taking paid surveys while in others it   may take months. So, just keep that in mind. Paid  surveys is not a good option for all countries.  

[05:30] Third method is user testing. In my opinion be a  really fun and also a well- paid way to earn some   extra money because you, for example, get to test  websites or apps and then you share your feedback.   In many cases you actually need to record your  screen, not your face but just your screen and  

[05:45] then speak your thoughts out loud and it can be  actually quite interesting and it usually pays   quite a bit more per task than surveys or get  paid to sites. However, the trade-off is that   there are usually fewer tests available, so it  works best as something you combine with some of  

[06:00] the other methods I talk about in this video here.  Two platforms worth checking out can, for example,   be UserTesting.com and TestingTime. These are  some where I regularly get fairly well- paid user   tests offered, but just keep in mind that the  test availability will also vary depending on  

[06:16] your country. And just because there are tests  available, it doesn't mean you qualify for all   of them. It can be quite hard to qualify, but when  you do, it pays quite nicely. But it's a good idea   to join several options. Again, here I also do  have a list on my website of the best user test.  

[06:31] I also I forgot to mention actually I also do have  a list of the best survey sites for each country   because the best options there depends on your  country. So, I'll also leave that below as well   as a list of the best user testing platforms. So  you can check that out again with full reviews and  

[06:43] tutorial of all the platforms, not just a couple  of examples I mentioned here. So you can easily   get started with the options you want to. The last  method I want to talk about before then giving you   some extra tips about how to get the most out  of this overall that is microtask sites. And  

[07:00] these are mainly platforms where you can complete  small tasks. It can for example be image labeling,   data categorization, it can also be content  review. And two examples of this is for example   Toloka and Clickworker. And personally it's  not a type of work I use a lot. And the reason  

[07:16] for this is that the earnings per tasks are in  many cases lower than many of the other methods.   But microtask tends to be available in more  countries than for example most service sites or  

[07:28] user testing platforms. So if you are in a country  where some of the other options might not give the   best opportunities, then microtasks sites can  be something to consider where you can actually   start earning a bit of extra money without any  investment at all. So I just want to finish up  

[07:43] with a few important things to help you get the  best chances of success when you're trying to make   your first money online. Because when I first started  making money online, I did not just rely on one   method. I combined several of them. And it was  actually that combination that helped me make my  

[07:58] first real money online. And I still remember the  moment that I realized it was actually possible   to earn something online. Not just some kind of  weird promise I had seen online, but something   I had actually done myself with my own results  in front of me. Even though the first money I  

[08:13] made was not a lot, it still proved to me that it  was possible. So for me personally, that was just   the beginning. And it gave me the confidence  to keep going and eventually build something   bigger. But that's not the point for everyone,  and that's also completely fine. Of course,  

[08:28] some people just want a bit of extra money on the  side to cover some extra bills, treat themselves,   or get a little more breathing room in their  budget. And the methods I have shown here are   perfect for that. And what I suggest to do is that  you start with two or three of these methods here  

[08:43] and join a couple of platforms for each method and  then try them out. see what works for your profile   and for your country and then focus more time  on what is actually working for you and giving   you results. So, do not just put all your time  into one platform. Most people actually reach the  

[09:00] first $100 online by using more than one platform.  As mentioned, I have a full list of recommended   platforms across all these different four  categories here on my website. So, I will leave a   link below in the description so you can go there  and find the best options for you depending on  

[09:14] your preferences. And if you have any questions or  if you have experiences with any of these methods,   then please just ask in the comments.
