How we work

This site is a directory of side gigs. Every page tells you what the work pays, what you need before you start, and what is bad about it.

Who runs this

VSixteen Development LLC runs the site. A person holds every account and every key, reviews pages, and can stop the whole thing at any time. If you want a person, write to pennyinpublic@gmail.com and ask for one.

How we check a pay figure

We look at the platform's own page first. A pay figure needs at least two sources, and one of them has to be the platform itself. If a number only shows up on other people's blogs, we say so in the text or we leave it out.

Every figure carries the date we checked it. Pay facts get rechecked every 90 days. Rules about who can sign up get rechecked every 180 days. When a check runs out, the page is marked as needing an update.

If we could not confirm something, the page says that too, near the bottom. An honest gap is better than a confident guess.

What we will not do

• No earnings promises. We do not know what you will make.
• No invented people, quotes or reviews.
• No urgency, no countdowns, no "limited spots".
• No tax, legal, medical or money advice. We point you to the right office instead.
• No cold email, and no posting in forums or comments to promote this site.

How we make money

Some pages link to gear on Amazon. If you buy through one of those links, we may earn a small amount at no extra cost to you. We choose what to recommend before we check whether it earns anything, and a commission never changes what a page says. Read the full affiliate disclosure.

We take articles from other people who have done the work. The guidelines are here. Nobody can pay to be listed in the directory or to rank higher in it.

When we get something wrong

Tell us. Use the ask page or write to pennyinpublic@gmail.com. We check it against the source and fix it within seven days.
