Over time, though, many of the sites that offer these types of remote jobs, also known as crowdsourcing, have proven to be reliable and offer easy, above-board ways to earn extra money.

Amazon Mechanical Turk

One of the original micro job employers, Amazon’s Mechanical Turk lists human intelligence tasks (HITs) that remote workers choose and complete for a fee that's set by the requester. Available tasks include image and video processing, data verification and cleanup, information gathering, data processing, and more.
