Do those paid online surveys really work?

Do online surveys to get paid really work?

  • I need the extra money for school and i was wondering if anyone ever got paid to take online survey. And to tell me how do they work and more info.

  • Answer:

    This question is asked 20-30 times a day. The answer is still, 1. NO, most are scams, the ones that aren't pay 1 to maybe 30 cents per survey. 2. Most will ask for personally identifiable info such as a bank account. here is where the trouble gets started. If you found a scam, expect your account to get wiped out. 3. The people who make money on these "survey scams' are the spammers who post links on Y!A and other sites trying to get you to click on their link so THEY get paid a referral. 4. You will also get spammed to death when you give them your email account. 5. It is against Y!A TOS to spam post. OK? Unless you want to get sucked into a scam, risk losing your money and identity, I would not waste my time on this.

In many or most cases, you will never see any money paid to you. They take all that personal information you provided and they sell it and get money for themselves. Sometimes they use the info for identity fraud.

No, they are not worth your time.

The short answer is yes, if you actually join market research panels, and not the thousands of scam sites on the web. Market Research isn't a new thing, people having been taking surveys in exchange for incentives since the dawn of the marketing age. That's how companies get feedback on their products before they hit the store shelves. Before it was phone and mail surveys, and not the internet is just a new and more efficient way to reach a large market. Now if your definition of really work, means making a little extra money in your spare time. Then yes, they do. I take surveys online in my spare time and can usually manage to make enough money to cover a bill or two. I think if you can manage to join some legitimate market research panels you will find that they can be both rewarding and interesting.

There are a lot of scams out there, so be careful. There are a few sites that I have used for a while now and have gotten paid by. The good sites won't charge you to join and don't make you complete "special offers" but just ask you to take surveys. They will usually pay around $1-$5 and up to $15 per survey, and up to around $50 a month per site. Each survey takes between 5 and 40 minutes, and you usually get paid within a few weeks either by check or paypal. The sites that I use are SurveySavvy and Opinion Outpost, along with several others. There are a bunch of reviews at http://www.earnontheside.com/?page_id=13 , Just remember, if a site wants your credit card.... then it is a scam.

there are plenty of surveys companies out there that are legit and pay several dollars and even alot higher for surveys. What people need to remember is that there is no set price for the company to pay you. It all comes down to how much the company that needs the information is paying the surveys website to conduct the research for them. You can try these paid surveys if you like and they pay you in money and paypal cash. Its free and im using them aswell http://www.techagesite.com/Surveys%20page1.htm

Few are true, but many are scams.Well i don't know much about making money from surveys,but one of similar ways is by clicking ads. All you have to do is to register at these legit sites and click ads. They pay you for viewing the ads for 30 sec. I found these sites after doing a lot of research on line and inquiring friends.They've proofs of paying their members. You can visit and register to these websites and start making money. If you can spend half an hours time daily clicking on the ads, you could be making a lot of money. http://bux.to/?r=sandeepjain242 http://www.theclickers.net/ptc/index.php?ref=sandeepjain242 http://www.cash-harvest.com/index.php?ref=sandeepjain242 http://www.neobux.com/?r=sandeepjain242 http://www.advercash.net/signup.php?ref=sandeepjain242 http://10clix.com/?r=sandeepjain242 Hope the information was useful.

I started looking online for stuff I could do from home and found some great places. I have made a list of places that I have used (only free ones), I know they're all legit because I don’t list them until I've been paid by them. I do have survey sites listed; only the ones that I know for sure work. Nothing to lose by looking, it’s free. You can see my list and details on these places at http://tinyurl.com/homeoffice

After researching the web, I found that Cashcrate is quite a reliable online survey website. It is a website that lists various reliable online surveys. People posted good reviews about it and they also uploaded pictures of checks payments that they received. It is also international, however you will get more online surveys if you live in the States. Most surveys pays around $0.25 -$1.00, and some pays higher especially if you live in the states. Each surveys takes roughly 5-10 minutes to complete. If your surveys are verified (as in completed), you will get payment via cheques each month, so you must register to Cashcrate using a valid address (But you must earn at least $10 to get the payment each month). You can get my referal link to cashcrate by typing http:// cashcrate. com /758463 (without the space) or get the link from my profile
