Get paid to take online surveys

Paid Surveys (I HAVE NOT VERIFIED THE COMPANIES OFFERING PAID SURVEYS IN THE GOOGLE ADS ABOVE, UNLESS THEY ARE MENTIONED BELOW)
If there is one area of the GPT (Get Paid To) market place which has most negative coverage, it is that relative to the taking of online surveys.  I totally agree that this is one area where more caution is needed before you sign up for a Paid Survey Program, whether it is at a free site or one where you join as a member and pay a small fee.

Let me state at the outset that I've taken the utmost care to only promote affiliates who I believe offer genuine opportunites that have also been verified by respected GPT reviewer, Top Site Reviews.  

These affiliates offer:

But first, here's a free one!  Survey Savvy is probably the Net's leading free-to-join online survey company.  They are accredited by the Better Business Bureau and are definitely worth a look.  To do so, please click HERE.

So, let's look how to get paid taking online surveys 
There are a large number of companies who will pay you per hour or per survey anything from $5 upwards just for completing an online survey to get your perspective on whatever it is in which they are interested.  The top rate I've seen is $150, but that is harder to find, and is more common for focus group participation.  

Best of all, you can do this from the comfort of your own home.  All you need is a computer and a connection to the Internet. 

Some will also pay you to take part in phone surveys, for which the norm is payment of around $30, but payment of double that is not impossible. I've seen claims of higher, but have no evidence that this is really the case. 

Get paid to participate in focus group panels for 30 to 60 minutes and make from $50 up to $250, which is quite rare and only at the very top end.  

Some digital retailers have new products which they will send to you before they are released on the market. All you'll have to do is test them out, share your opinion, and get paid!  

OK, you won't make a fortune, but you should be able to earn reasonable additional income, certainly enough to make life just a touch more comfortable.

You need to appreciate that the affiliates I am promoting are NOT the companies who will offer you the actual surveys for completion, nor the focus groups to attend.  The three affiliates I'm promoting, provide you with up-to-date directories which give you the contacts of companies who are willing to pay you for your opinions.  These directories are maintained as up-to-date as possible, through the use of your fees, to pay staff to keep them "hot".  The free sites cannot do this.

The market is huge and you'll get paid for your opinion

Globally the survey market is massive.  Just in the US, companies spend something like $250bn annually promoting their products to consumers, after having sought the opinons of people like you.  And YOU GET PAID for your opinion.

Companies who spend this massive sum on researching opinions, are trying to ascertain what the boffins call consumer behavior, as this has a very significant effect on the development of new products, and the improvements which are made to existing products.  That new model SUV you saw yesterday, will have had millions spent on it, around the world, on researching its appeal to you, the consumer.

These companies all know very well that they won't get the best research for free, so they are very happy to pay, actually quite generously, in order to get the very best info that their market research dollars can buy.  

OK, here comes the bottom-line.....
Obviously, your potential income will be dependent upon the number, type and frequency of surveys that are offered to you.  However, it seems to be possible to spend two hours a day on this, and make up to $300 a day, or $2,100 a week, $8,400 a month and $100,800 a year. Attracted to this sort of money?  Most would be.  Please click on any of the links throughout this brief article, or on the banners below, and you too could start to earn today!  

Please remember that wherever you see earnings amounts quoted, while they might well be accurate, they cannot be guaranteed for everyone.  Just remember the maxim: "You will only get rewards that are relative to your effort."

It's worth noting that respected web site reviewer, Top Site Reviews, rates both Survey Scout and Paid for Free highly in its recommended list, and has verified the critical money back guarantee they offer.  Get Cash for Surveys has been in business since at least 2003.  That gives me the confidence to promote it as an affiliate, as a site that wasn't genuine would not be able to stay in business for five years.

If you are wondering why I haven't recommended any free-to-join survey sites, it is solely because I have not been able to find any in which I would be able to be confident that you would receive up-to-date directories.

The three companies above are professionals, running a business which Top Site Reviews has checked out through personal contact. The fees they receive enable them to employ full-time staff who are responsible for keeping the directories up to date. 

If you have had personal experience of a good free-to-join survey site, which has paid you consistently, I would love to hear from you (email: mikeATmakingdollars4u.com)
