If you have been online for any amount of time, you have likely seen the ads or received emails telling you how much money you can easily make by taking online paid surveys. It is particularly attractive to beginning web marketers because it seems so simple. Just sign up for online surveys and watch the money roll in. How simple is it really and how much can you make?
If you start your search for online paid survey companies, you will find some that will charge you $30 to $60 to get a list of companies that are running surveys. Then you have to contact these companies and register before actually taking a survey. This can be tedious, and not all the companies on the list will have a survey that you qualify for. So this approach not only costs you money, but it can take time before you see a paycheck.
We have found that these lists only contain a small percent of really useful companies. In addition, you can find many of these companies on your own with just a little searching. So for beginners and those who do not want to spend money, we recommend not buying the list. There are less expensive ways.
Some survey companies pay in cash, while others give you points that you can redeem. Survey sites like Ciao Survey or American Consumer Opinion Panel are places you can start. With these companies you can get from 1 to 4 surveys every month. You may not qualify for every survey, but you should consistently get surveys to take.
If you don't mind a points system, check out companies like Global Test Market, Mysurvey and Opinion Post. Check their conversion rate of points to reward and make sure they have items that you would like. You don't want to spend a lot of time earning points when you cannot find anything you want to redeem them for.
Some companies let their customers enter sweepstakes or lucky draws for completing their surveys. You may not prefer this type of reward but there are good chances of winning the prize. Synovate, NOP World, Nielsen Netratings are some of the companies who follow this system of reward for their customers.
People in the US and Canada have more opportunity to earn money with paid online surveys. That's because there are more companies doing surveys in those countries, so there are more surveys available.
People do earn some real money by taking online paid surveys and you can too. Just don't expect to replace your full time job doing it. But you can earn yourself some extra cash each month from online surveys.
