Three years ago, when I was desperately looking for ways to make some money online, I found out about InboxDollars, an American based website that signs up people from all over the world to read emails and fill out surveys.
At first, I read hundreds of emails and filled out a ton of surveys, only to make a few bucks here and there. While I was making some money, it was nothing to write home about. Reading emails paid pennys, but taking surveys and getting your friends to sign up paid handsomely.
I was never any good at referring people to anything. So I never thought I could benefit from their referral program.
But then I noticed that InboxDollars had something called a “Gold Membership”. Basically what this meant was I was able to buy a set amount of referrals for my InboxDollars account.
So what did I do? Everytime I was eligible for a payout, I turned around and purchased a Gold Account.
Well, after some time I forgot about my account.
Years went buy and one day I decided to log on to my account and see what had happened. To my surprise I had a nice chunk of change waiting for me.
Unfortunately they don’t allow you to purchase Gold Memberships anymore, but now my Inboxdollars account is generating a little over a dollar a day….without me reading an email or taking a survey….all thanks to my referral base. How cool is that?
But don’t get me wrong, InboxDollars is a steady earner and I’ve had positive experiences with this program. There are a lot of things you can do to earn cash, and over time, the money really adds up. While I’m not making enough money to quite my day job, I have a little extra mad money to carry around with me.
If you have a mailing list or a lot of friends, I encourage your to join Inboxdollars . You get a $5.00 sign-up bonus, $5 for every referral you recruit and cashes out.
But remember, just as with any other paid to read/paid to take survey sites, always sign up using a separate email account…instead of your main one since you will get a ton of paid to read emails.
