You can make money with paid online surveys when the economic outlook is steady and most agree on it. But in times like now, when things are changing and the experts are pointing in different directions, it’s really easy to make good money at it. Especially if you restrict yourself to taking legitimate paid online surveys.
There are thousands of paid opinion surveys being made every week on the Internet. From where do they recruit the tens of thousands of people they need to participate in those surveys? Easy! They make it worth their while. They pay survey participants. That is how it gets called a paid opinion survey !
So how does one get paid for surveys online? It’s easy. You just need to be a consumer, 18 or older, have access to the Internet and have enough computer skills to send and receive e-mails. That’s it!
So if you want to take paid opinion surveys and make money, what do you do?
To get invited to participate in paid opinion surveys you need to get your name and demographic info on the survey makers’ lists of potential survey participants. Find a good list and you make money. Get a bad one and you just waste your time at best.
The good lists contain survey makers that offer legitimate paid online surveys that pay well, pay on time and respect your privacy. The problem is that this describes only about 20% of listed survey makers. Another 40% are 2nd tier: O.K. but generally pay less, though they are still worthwhile to deal with.
The lower 40% consists of no-pay/low-pay survey makers and sales companies that try to act like survey makers to get a chance to sell you things. These are a nuisance and complete waste of time.
Beware of “free lists”. Actually, there is no such thing. Every list is paid for, it not by the users, then by the lower 40% of survey makers that must constantly recruit new participants. They pay recruitment fees for those that recruit new participants for them. The recruiters make money but the recruits won’t!
