Online paid surveys is a great way to make some extra money online. It's always FREE to do paid surveys - legitimate market research companies and paid survey sites do NOT charge anyone to sign up their survey panels, in fact they are the one pay YOU for YOUR opinion on products, services, ads and ideas etc.
The keys to get paid for surveys are: 1. sign up with legitimate paid survey sites (the more the better, since it will increase your chance of getting more surveys) 2. Stick to it and be patient - it is very important for beginners, since it does takes a while to start getting more better paying survey opportunities.
How much you can make taking onlne surveys depends on several factors, mainly your demographic profile, how many legitimate survey sites you are with and how much time you spend on doing surveys. Generally speaking, market research companies need opinion from people from all background and demographic, so give paid surveys a try to see how it works out for you.
To get started doing online paid surveys:
First: sign up a dedicate/separate email account (you can use free email service such as Yahoo or Google email) just for paid surveys - you will receive lot of survey invite emails;
Second: open a free Paypal personal account - since some survey companies pay members cash via Paypal which is fast and secure;
Third: sign up with ALL the legitimate paid survey sites on our Free Paid Survey Directories/ (use the one of the lists that is suitable for your demographic location). Those are the real paid survey sites that I found over the years. Please note: all survey sites listed on the directories are legitimate, they are free to join and actually pay.
Finally: Be patient - you will find it is slow at the beginning, which it is normal, since it does take time to get paid and get more and better survey opportunities. As long as you stick to it, you will be able to earn stable and consistent income.
