Before we launch into the list, I will warn you that some of these methods will require a longer time commitment. While some methods can be implemented within a few days,with profits starting to flow soon after, other methods require weeks and months of effort to see results.
These longer methods, such as setting up a social media profile and building an online brand or blog, lead into the realm of passive online income. This is the ultimate goal – to setup a money making machine and have it working for you 24 hours a day generating income, even while you sleep or are on vacation.
The list is organised from the easiest and quickest to setup, to the ones requiring a higher commitment of time and resources.
1. Research and Test Websites

You will need to register and provide some screening information. After that, any tests or studies that you are suitable for will be presented.
A well-known site is Respondent.io. Below is a snapshot of the types of opportunities available.
