What is website testing?

In a lay mans language website testing is nothing but checking for bugs or errors on the website before they go live. This includes, testing the contact forms whether the data filled in the form is getting captured correctly or is there an error page on the website or it can be as simple as checking the website if it has a good UI/UX which means is the user journey throughout the website seamless?

What Does a Website Tester Do?

As a website tester once you have thoroughly checked the website as per the instructions provided to you by the client, all you need to do is share your feedback in case you found it difficult to navigate through the website or did you had to struggle to search some tab/section, did you find any glitch on the website or did the website take a lot of time to load etc.

What do you need to become a website tester?

1. Fast Internet connection

2. A desktop or laptop with Windows 7 or above

3. A microphone (you can find cheaper microphones on Amazon. (Here is one)

4. Webcam (The one I use)

5. Screen Recorder (Most of the platforms provide screen recorder software. You just need to download them)

6. You should speak fluent English (Some websites will accept your native language as well)

7. Most importantly, you must speak out your thoughts with confidence.

How much do you get paid for testing the website?

A website tester can make at least $5-$10 per test on average the time required will be 10-20 mins. However, there are some websites like Userlytics that can pay up to $90 per project. Also the time for the test depends on website to website some website may require your time beyond 20 mins and they pay will be better.

How will you get paid?

Most of the websites pay every month basis via Paypal however there are few websites which give you an option of redeeming the amount as Amazon gift cards

Now that I have answered almost all your questions lets get to the websites.

User Testing is the most popular platform to test websites, they offer design testing and user interface testing jobs for mobile applications as well as websites. The only thing required from you is your true feedback with regards to the tasks assigned to you. Once you sign up as a tester you will be given a sample task which will be of approximately 20 mins screen recording. Once you complete the task and hit the submit button. The customer will then see your feedback if they approve it you will get paid. Usertesting pays $10 for each test you complete and $60 for a live video conference call with the customer.

UserTest is a website review site where you will get paid to review the websites. Being a member you should be able to explain in detail about your likes and dislikes about the websites. You can also suggest the features which you feel would help in the UX of the website. Once you sign up using your email id you need to fill up all the details. After that you will be given a 5 minute sample review test which will be checked by the UserTest officials. Once submitted you will need to wait for 1-2 weeks to see if you got qualified this is just a 1st time wait once you are approved you can receive the tests regularly. For every test you take UserTest pays you £8 (743 INR) withing 2 days of completion via Paypal.

Userlytics is one of my favorites as this is highest paying website for testing it is a remote user testing platform where clients do the usability testing, prototype testing & Mobile apps user tests. Once you sign up for the program you will get a confirmation link on your registered email id once you confirm the account it will redirect you to the dashboard. To receive the test you will need to fill up all the details so it can suggest you the test which match your profile. Once you receive the test you need to share your thoughts about that particular website or app followed by few questions to answer. If they like your response you get paid! You can earn $5, $10, $15, $20 or more depending on the project you take.

Whatusersdo is another awesome testing job website that pays money for giving your feedback about websites that helps companies to improve them on desktop, tablet & mobile devices. The procedure to sign up is simple once you sign up you need to take a practice test using the screen recorder. Once you pass the test you are hired! you will start receiving the test through emails. You will usually receive 4-6 tests a month each test pays you $5 which will be credited to your Paypal account on the 25th of every month.

Analysia is the last one I have on my list it is usability testing website where various kids of websites are tested based on your user experience. As a partner you will asked to share your experience based on the device you have (Desktop/Tablet/Mobile phone) For each successful test you get paid. The sign up procedure here is a bit different once you sign up you dont have to give any test unlike the other ones where there is chance of getting rejected in the test. Here you just sign up and start taking test for every test they pay you $10 flat via Paypal.
