It sounds a bit too good to be true doesn’t it? That’s what i thought at first!
However, i have been working for a company called UserTesting for more than a year now and it’s one of my favourite ways of making money.
What is it?
The work is testing a website or mobile app to see how user friendly it is. It basically involves following a link to a live website or a prototype. You will then be given tasks to complete on the website. Whilst you are doing them you must ‘think out loud’, giving your opinion of the website and how easy the tasks are to complete. Your screen and voice will be recorded whilst doing this, but no images of you or a webcam is needed.
You will need to install UserTesting software onto your computer to complete the tests. If you want to take part in mobile testing as well then you also need to install their phone app.
You can also take part in live conversations which pay better at $60 but that’s not my thing (social anxiety!) so i have never tried it.
So how do i sign up?
Visit this link https://www.usertesting.com/be-a-user-tester and enter your email address. You will have to complete a test which will be reviewed and then hopefully you’re in. No interviews needed though so it’s pretty easy to get started. Sadly there is no referral program or i would be rich by now telling everyone how awesome it is!
When do i get paid?
UserTesting pay 7 days to the minute after you have completed the test. I have never had a problem with payments, they are excellent and very prompt. Sometimes the companies rate your test too but that is rare at the moment.
