Reply:I don't know of a site that gives you free products, but I am a part of Treasuretrooper.com which actually pays you money. It pays kinda cheap-extra pocket money...but all you do is fill out those stupid surveys. You get a check once a month and its free to do. Something to check out if you want to. www.treasuretrooper.com/249672
Reply:Don't do it, what you'll get is several tons of spam. If you must try, use Google to look for "survey". They will want you to sign up then send you surveys at least every week as well as selling your e-mail address. There are a whole bunch of sites that claim to do this, usually it's just a bunch of advertising.

I can tell you've already been doing some research on paid survey sites because you've already found that most are scams.
I don't even know how many sites I signed up for before I started making some REAL MONEY online completing surveys. Probably hundreds or more.
I even blew a few hundred bucks signing up at those membership sites that promise the world and deliver just about NOTHING. Usually just some outdated list of survey sites or worse!
Remember, a survey site should never be asking you for money. Your information is VALUABLE to them and they should be paying YOU for it.
Infact, your personal information is so valuable that a lot of so called paid survey sites are just a cover for collecting your personal information to resell to other companies!
I know how frustrating it can be to try to make money online. The fact is, most people make money online by RIPPING OFF other people! That's why when you try to find information on making money online everyone's got their hands out.
It's a very lucrative industry because of how desperate people can be to make money online and how few free resources actually exist.
That's why at http://www.surveysthatpaid.com I've setup a list of 100% FREE to join legitimate paid survey sites. I have ONLY included the sites I have personally received a payment from.
Some pay by check or PayPal with varying minimum payouts, but all have paid me as promised for my time. I also setup a FAQ outlining some of the common questions regarding paid survey sites online.
Well, hopefully that's enough to get you started, but if you have any questions at all feel free to email me and I can help you out.
Have a good one!
Reply:Hey there!
There are definately a bunch out there that are not scams. I've been using them for a little over 2 years now, and I have been paid (have pics of the checks and paypal to prove it). If you'd like a list of the sites I use, send me a message and I'll get them to you. One thing to remember with paid surveys is the more sites you join, the more invites you get and the more money you will make. If you'd like a list of the sites that are working for me, send me a message :)
Reply:I remember those days when i almost get mad to find one free survey site that really pay us without charging a fee. The fact is that there are so many survey sites in internet who actually charges a registration fee. I tell you what, run as far as you can, if they ask you money to join their survey site. Any legimate survey site, will not ask you money to join them They actually have to pay us if we join them%26lt;!--some people do not understand this, and they pay and later they suffer and get frustrated. So is there really any Survey site that pays us? The Answer is, Yes. I am personally getting paid by a Survey site and please find the below website and register yourself for free,

The best part is that, after you register and confirm the email sent, you will have a chance to win a car. The fun part is that they pay you money for playing games. And you get sometimes $50 for completing offers. Check out the offers area when you log in, you earn more. I personally get paid and you could trust them--%26gt;since they dont ask you any money, you could give a try, there is nothing to lose. I am sure you will be happy at the end of the week seeing money in your account. Have a great day ahead...!

Does anyone know about paid to do online surveys?
Yes I receive a lot of emails about online surveys and getting paid for each one and I would like to know if they are safe and do they really pay you? Thanks!
Does anyone know about paid to do online surveys?
Survey's are not what you think. They require a lot of time, and you won't make what they claim you will. A couple of my friends did a six month test on several different survey sites like Survey Savvy, Harris Poll, Greenfield, Opinion Outpost, Survey Sport, Buzzback, NPD online, Lightspeed Panel, African American, Your2Cents, Project Payday, Inboxdollar, SnapDollars,Send Earnings, Creation, mycoke rewards, E-poll etc. Each did some the same sites and some different sites. Totaling at least 15 - 20 a piece. They're not what people say they are. Yes they are easy to do and you can receive money and prizes, compensating you for your time and effort. So they're not a scam. They're very time consuming though. When you add the time together, It's more time then you think! If you do decide to get into surveying, you better plan on spending 8 to 10 hours a day and make minimum wage. Sometimes you will hit good surveys that will pay you a lot, but what's required to get that is amount, the calculations of the time involved, and what you got paid in these "higher" paying surveys, still only averages out to minimum wage. It's a psychological thing because the time is spread out on these, so it doesn't seem to be as long as it really is. But we did the documentation's and figured the time vs money factor. We found that there was more time with little money to be made.
Here's how the survey's work. You spend approximately 10 to 15 minutes per each site to register and set up a profile to qualify for surveys. (this is non paid). To make anything really work, you need to register for at least 14 different ones, and make sure non are related to each other. Then you'll start receiving emails for surveys. Each survey you have to complete a 15 to 20 minute "pre-qualifying" survey, after you were already told you qualified based on your profile (you don't get paid for this) Then if you do qualify for a survey (which majority of the ones you don't qualify for. so you've wasted this 15 to 20 minutes and sometimes longer of non paid time.) Then if you don't qualify for one, they offer another and you have to do the same thing, and the same thing happens.) You waste approximately 45 minutes to an hour until you finally qualify for a survey. You take a 30 to 45 minute survey and make normally $1 to $3 a survey that they claim takes 15 minutes. Or instead of money, you earn "points" which later on can be exchanged for money or prizes. You have to earn enough points to make $10. That's not including the 15 minute pre qualifying survey, that you had to repeatedly do prior to land this survey. So you've now spent thirty minutes to an hour and made $3 or a few points. And the process between each of the survey sites is the same. So you can pretty much do the math. It averages out to be between $2 to $6 an hour. Sometimes you do come across a survey that will pay you $25 to $75 a survey, BUT there's A LOT more to it then what meets the eye on that as well.
Here's how the larger pay out survey's work. It could be a telephone survey or a Internet survey. You get the pre qualifying part of 10 to 20 minutes then if you qualify for it another 15 to 30 minute survey or a telephone survey about the product your about to try to see if you qualify to try it. Even though you took a 10 to 20 minute "pre qualifying survey" that said you qualify for. When you qualify for it, they send you a product out to try for 7 to 10 days and you do some daily documentation's on it. Depending on what the product is and the documentation's it's usually 5 - 15 minutes each daily documentation. (you got a free product to use around the house, this is a good part of it) after trying the product out you have to complete another survey that takes between 15 to 30 minutes to do. Now you do the calculations on that. You don't get as many of these types of survey's. They use the hype on getting paid $25 to $75 dollars for 15 minute surveys. NOTICE THE PLURAL IN "SURVEYS" What they don't tell you is that there is more then one survey involved in these. Now calculate from your pre-qualifying survey to the next pre-qualifying survey from the company carrying the product, to the trial and documentation's, to the last survey on these products. Then you receive a check four weeks to six weeks later. Do the math, that's less then minimum wage!
Another way to earn money on survey sites, is to refer people over to the sites. Some survey sites will give you a percentage on what the people do after they've reached a curtain amount of points or obtained their first check (refer back to the top of what's involved) You either get a lot of points for this, and only one time and when you reach a curtain amount of points you can exchange it for cash or prizes. (Cash amount is usually $30 before you can cash out- do the math on how many pre-qualifying surveys and the surveys you get, the time involved etc this is what it takes to earn the $30) Other survey sites you complete shorter surveys (5 to 15 minutes) and your entered into sweepstakes or lottery things for prizes or money. "Lottery"-one winner out of all the people doing survey's. If you don't win, you lose your points.
Okay, I'm starting to write a book. I can go on about all the other types of survey's available and what was
involved in that if you'd like me to elaborate on it.
I do survey's because it does help the marketing on different products and they do use the opinions of what things look like and what not. So I do it for the principle of the matter. Don't do it for money, because you won't make a sufficient amount of money with this.
If you'd like some links to various survey's, feel free to email me and I'll send them over to you. You really have to register for a lot of different sites. The paid survey sites offer the same survey's as the non paying ones. You get the same type of prizes and some pay a little more money. Again calculation time. Calculate how much you "paid" into these sites and the time you put into it, (refer back to how the survey's work) and it calculates back to minimum wage. If your doing this to make a living off of, you will be disappointed. But just for some extra cash, it's a good source and like I said, the companies do document the feedback and use it to better advertise their products and in some cases come out with new products based on the input of the surveyors. If you still want to do the survey's your more then welcome to email me and I'll send you the links.
If you want to work from home, (assuming this is why you want to do survey's) I suggest you start your own home based business. Not a home "job", they only pay minimum wage as well. I better not write a book on that right now on that as I' did on surveys LOL! There are so many different home based business to start up. Most home based business cost under $500 to start. They have the same income opportunity as traditional businesses without a lot of over head expenses and they are easier to run and manage.
Not knowing what you like to do, I'm not sure who to refer you over to and get information from. I can tell you what my husband and I have for the past 6 years and refer you over to my blog that I created on Home Based Businesses on my 360 page. Your more then welcome to go and take a look for some more ideas. We have our own home based business and it supports our entire family of 6 (we have 4 children ages 10, 6, 3 and 1)
We got involved in the Telecommunications industry, like I said a little over 6 years ago. We picked this one because the income opportunity is just incredible, as it is in most home based businesses. But in this, it seemed more practical. We partnered up with a 15 year old world wide company that offers services that people use every day and pay for anyway. Services like Local and Long distance telephone services, Internet, digital, video, VOIP, Satellite TV, and all the major cellular phone providers as well. Wireless Phones and services from Verizon, T-mobile, AT%26amp;T, Spring, Alltel, Nextell etc.
How many people do you know, or know of around the world that uses one or more of these services? We save people money on services that they are already using and paying for, and offer them services that they don't have. Every single month these people pay these bills that they are going to every month anyway, we make a percentage. You get paid every single month for these services over and over again. This is a very profitable business to get involved in.

Reply:You need to ignore those emails - they are likely scams.
However, there ARE real legitimate paid survey sites and they pay- those are legit market research and paid survey companies who pay consumer's opinion.
To find out those legit paid survey sites, check out one of the free paid survey directory sites, such as http://www.mysurvey123.com which has FREE lists of legit paid survey sites with reviews and ratings, as well as paid survey guide and advice. good luck!
Reply:Yes, I know One.
My favorite is http://www.freesurveysdir.com which is in my opinion the best free paid survey database on the net today.
There is a huge database of more than 400 legit survey companies. I’ve tried most of them and they really pay.
The membership is completely Free and the registration takes only 1 minute.
Freesurveysdir is a “must have” if you are serious in this game ;-)
Good luck!
Reply:When I started earning money online, I started with online surveys. Yes, they're safe and yes, they really work. They don't make a lot of money, though, just a little extra here and there. Every site that I received surveys from was free to join. Some paid cash and others paid with points that were redeemable for cash and other gifts. I never tried the sites that you had to pay for, so I can't tell you whether or not those are reliable. If you want a list of the sites that I used, just let me know.
Reply:There are many survey websites that are legit, but there are even moe that are just scam. If they keep sending you e-mails about it, I would think that they are scams.
Another piece of advice, don't pay for those survey websites that offer you hundreds of survey websites. They are more concerned with quantity than quality. So naturally, there are bound to be quite a few scam surveys there.
I highly recommend that you create a new e-mail address when registering with any survey website. That way your main e-mail will not be effected if they really do sen you spam. Being someone who do surveys as well, I believe that it is a great way to make some extra money.
But do not get fooled into believing that you will get rich from it. It will make you some nice extra pocket money, but you are not going to live in luxury because of it. I will recommend the website I use. The website is free and it lists out the survey websites that are applicable according to your area.
Oh, and they don't all pay cash. Some pay by gifts and sweepstakes. It is not attractive as cash, but it is free and I believe that it is still worth the effort you are putting into it. Best of luck!
Reply:Hi Judy,
Some are scams, some are legitimate. If they are approaching you mostly likely a scam..
I would check out the definitive list of all legitimate paying survey comanies at http://www.makesomemoney365.com.

Some survey sites will give you a percentage on what the people do after they've reached a curtain amount of points or obtained their first check (refer back to the top of what's involved) You either get a lot of points for this, and only one time and when you reach a curtain amount of points you can exchange it for cash or prizes. (Cash amount is usually $30 before you can cash out- do the math on how many pre-qualifying surveys and the surveys you get, the time involved etc this is what it takes to earn the $30) Other survey sites you complete shorter surveys (5 to 15 minutes) and your entered into sweepstakes or lottery things for prizes or money. "Lottery"-one winner out of all the people doing survey's. If you don't win, you lose your points.
Okay, I'm starting to write a book. I can go on about all the other types of survey's available and what was
involved in that if you'd like me to elaborate on it.
I do survey's because it does help the marketing on different products and they do use the opinions of what things look like and what not. So I do it for the principle of the matter. Don't do it for money, because you won't make a sufficient amount of money with this.
If you'd like some links to various survey's, feel free to email me and I'll send them over to you. You really have to register for a lot of different sites. The paid survey sites offer the same survey's as the non paying ones. You get the same type of prizes and some pay a little more money. Again calculation time. Calculate how much you "paid" into these sites and the time you put into it, (refer back to how the survey's work) and it calculates back to minimum wage. If your doing this to make a living off of, you will be disappointed. But just for some extra cash, it's a good source and like I said, the companies do document the feedback and use it to better advertise their products and in some cases come out with new products based on the input of the surveyors. If you still want to do the survey's your more then welcome to email me and I'll send you the links.
If you want to work from home, (assuming this is why you want to do survey's) I suggest you start your own home based business. Not a home "job", they only pay minimum wage as well. I better not write a book on that right now on that as I' did on surveys LOL! There are so many different home based business to start up. Most home based business cost under $500 to start. They have the same income opportunity as traditional businesses without a lot of over head expenses and they are easier to run and manage.
Not knowing what you like to do, I'm not sure who to refer you over to and get information from. I can tell you what my husband and I have for the past 6 years and refer you over to my blog that I created on Home Based Businesses on my 360 page. Your more then welcome to go and take a look for some more ideas. We have our own home based business and it supports our entire family of 6 (we have 4 children ages 10, 6, 3 and 1)
We got involved in the Telecommunications industry, like I said a little over 6 years ago. We picked this one because the income opportunity is just incredible, as it is in most home based businesses. But in this, it seemed more practical. We partnered up with a 15 year old world wide company that offers services that people use every day and pay for anyway. Services like Local and Long distance telephone services, Internet, digital, video, VOIP, Satellite TV, and all the major cellular phone providers as well. Wireless Phones and services from Verizon, T-mobile, AT%26amp;T, Spring, Alltel, Nextell etc.
How many people do you know, or know of around the world that uses one or more of these services? We save people money on services that they are already using and paying for, and offer them services that they don't have. Every single month these people pay these bills that they are going to every month anyway, we make a percentage. You get paid every single month for these services over and over again. This is a very profitable business to get involved in.

Reply:You need to ignore those emails - they are likely scams.
However, there ARE real legitimate paid survey sites and they pay- those are legit market research and paid survey companies who pay consumer's opinion.
To find out those legit paid survey sites, check out one of the free paid survey directory sites, such as http://www.mysurvey123.com which has FREE lists of legit paid survey sites with reviews and ratings, as well as paid survey guide and advice. good luck!
Reply:Yes, I know One.
My favorite is http://www.freesurveysdir.com which is in my opinion the best free paid survey database on the net today.
There is a huge database of more than 400 legit survey companies. I’ve tried most of them and they really pay.
The membership is completely Free and the registration takes only 1 minute.
Freesurveysdir is a “must have” if you are serious in this game ;-)
Good luck!
Reply:When I started earning money online, I started with online surveys. Yes, they're safe and yes, they really work. They don't make a lot of money, though, just a little extra here and there. Every site that I received surveys from was free to join. Some paid cash and others paid with points that were redeemable for cash and other gifts. I never tried the sites that you had to pay for, so I can't tell you whether or not those are reliable. If you want a list of the sites that I used, just let me know.
Reply:There are many survey websites that are legit, but there are even moe that are just scam. If they keep sending you e-mails about it, I would think that they are scams.
Another piece of advice, don't pay for those survey websites that offer you hundreds of survey websites. They are more concerned with quantity than quality. So naturally, there are bound to be quite a few scam surveys there.
I highly recommend that you create a new e-mail address when registering with any survey website. That way your main e-mail will not be effected if they really do sen you spam. Being someone who do surveys as well, I believe that it is a great way to make some extra money.
But do not get fooled into believing that you will get rich from it. It will make you some nice extra pocket money, but you are not going to live in luxury because of it. I will recommend the website I use. The website is free and it lists out the survey websites that are applicable according to your area.
Oh, and they don't all pay cash. Some pay by gifts and sweepstakes. It is not attractive as cash, but it is free and I believe that it is still worth the effort you are putting into it. Best of luck!
Reply:Hi Judy,
Some are scams, some are legitimate. If they are approaching you mostly likely a scam..
I would check out the definitive list of all legitimate paying survey comanies at http://www.makesomemoney365.com.
They have a list of all the paying survey companies, SCAM FREE!! all companies are reviewed.
Also, don't pay for any list of survey firms, or to do surveys, that is always a sure sign of a scam
Reply:Click on the link in my profile. Legitimate company, no scams, very affordable start up cost, no obligation. You can definitely make money from doing this and never leave your home.

Reply:My guess, scam. They want some fee to get you set up. Then you never get paid.
Why would a company want a paid survey anyway? They know anyone would say they were a customer just to make dollar.

Do people really get paid for doing online surveys?
I have seen so much hype about getting "paid for your opinions" and blah, blah, blah. Is there really a website out there that pays people to fill out surveys? If so, how do you get your money?
Do people really get paid for doing online surveys?
Yes it is true. I have been paid a few dollars. Most companies just give you a chance at a draw or sweepstakes. Don't plan on making a career out of it as the paying surveys are few and far between. Also, don't pay for to join survey sites as all of the info you need is free on the net. Also watch out as I believe that some are scams trying to get your info to fill your in box. Anytime I have been paid - the company mailed me a check.
Reply:Yes - I was invited by an online polling outfit called Yougov to join their panel, and every time I get asked by them to complete a particular survey 50p gets paid into my account. When the amount paid in reaches £50 they send me a cheque in the post. It takes a long time and a lot of surveys to reach that magic moment, but so far I've received one cheque. I'm about a a third of the way to my next one.
Reply:I've done a lot of paid surveys and am currently owed at least 30 bucks. Never got paid. The legitimate ones are 10 cents a piece. RIP OFF!
Reply:I make 5-10$ here and there filling out surveys. No, it's not a full-time job. I doubt anyone lives off this. It's a fun quick and easy way to make a couple bucks here and there though :)
And yes, I've gotten checks for all of them. The company I use is called "Web Perspectives" and I only do the surveys that pay me - not the ones with a 1 in a 1000 chance of winning something (those are waste of time, unless you win, haha)
Reply:Yeaaaaaah, but theres always a catch
Reply:Yes, there are. http://consumeropinions.info
You can pick which ones you want to take, and they tell you in advance how much each survey pays before you start.
How do you get your money? They mail you a check. :)
Good luck!
Reply:I've been doing surveys for 6 months and haven't seen a dime.
Reply:I use one that gives you "virtual money" you can use for discounts on real products from their selected partners. For example, I redeemed $25 in "virtual money" for a $25 coupon at ftd.com a couple of weeks ago. Almost as good as cash, but it won't put food on the table. :-)
Reply:Nope - just a rip off - watch out!

How do you feel about those personality surveys that can determine the fate of your career?
We have all done it. You see a job that you feel you would be perfect for. You submit your resume. You get past the initial screening. Next you receive the dreaded personality survey with the misleading, repetitive questions that will probably knock you out of the running for being among the remaining qualified candidates. We have to summarize complex answers into the confines of "strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree and strongly disagree"
Do you really think this is an accurate method for screening job candidate?
Also, does anyone have any particular techniques that they use when faced with these questions?
Juuust wondering.
How do you feel about those personality surveys that can determine the fate of your career?
I don't think that they really help because they say one thing but what you can do is another... It is really what your heart says not what a piece of paper does...
Reply:I think a lot of people lie, but those surveys are just too long. I usually end up screwing up some of the questions because I am sick of reading them and don't read the question right.
Reply:Most of the time, you can predict the answer they want. You'd be surprised how many people answer "agree" to a question like "I have taken small items in the past, but would not take anything now." That alone shows you may lack integrity and might, if tempted, take something from your boss. You go in the "High Risk" or "RED FLAG" category and you'll not be hired.
Other questions are like "I tried drugs once, but I don't use them now." An honest Strongly Agree or Agree will tag you as a Potential Drug User and there you go again HIGH RISK.
The questionaires are a fairly accurate prediction of the way you will behave once you're an employee. While they may not seem so to you (that's the way they're designed to seem), they are very scientific questions based on past performance by individuals.
I was told that you should answer EVERYTHING either STRONGLY AGREE or esle STRONGLY DISAGREE.......there should not be any middle of the road. If you read the question and "think" they are looking for an agree answer, don't say "slightly agree" or "neither agree or disagree", you need to STRONGLY AGREE. Same thing if you think they are looking for a disagree answer.
Some examples of tests I have administered to job applicants:
I believe that low wages and poor living conditions can make an honest person take things sometimes. --Correct answer: strongly disagree. [Indicates if you would be inclined to steal if times got hard or if the opportunity was great enough]
There is no difference between smoking marajuana and drinking alcohol. --Correct answer: strongly disagree [Because marajuana is ILLEGAL and alcohol isn't--looking for your permissive attitude toward using drugs].
You should not publicaly expose a person who is caught stealing. --Correct answer: strongly disagree. [Seeing if you would be sympathetic to a thief and perhaps not tell on him]
I have been late to work in the past, but that is behind me now. --Correct answer: strongly disagree. [Looking for tardiness or attendance prone people]
Some workers know more than their supervisors. --Correct answer: strongly disagree. [Looking for how well you respect authority]
Each question is looking for a trait you possess. They are pretty reliable. If you always answer truthfully, you may not get the job. You have to play the game.

Has anyone found an online survey taking site that ACTUALLY pays money for the surveys you take?
I joined a few and the only surveys I get are sweepstakes entries that I doubt are legit. I want to take the surveys that pay out cash. Has anyone found those?
Has anyone found an online survey taking site that ACTUALLY pays money for the surveys you take?
I have earned arond $500 from Pinecone Research in the last 4 years ($5 per survey). They are very prompt in sending the checks. No point system, no raffles - just a $5 each and every survey
The rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys.
Legitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group. Pinecone Research, however, pays only $5 per survey -- you're definitely not going to be rich with that. They can give you anywhere from 1-5 at most surveys in a month.
Other companies simply ask you to answer as many research as possible, and you don't earn anything just the chance to win at a raffle (which I find lame).
The article "Earning Money from Surveys" provide a short list of legitimate market research firms and contains explanations of what to look for when joining surveys (and weeding out the fraudulent ones)

Reply:I am joined a survey panel called Global Test Market. Go to www.globaltestmarket.com. The way it works is you take surveys and receive between 5-100 points. Once you accumulate 1,000 points, they send you a $50.00 check. I just received my first one this week.
Reply:Hi M,
I´ve tried alot of different ways to make money online over the past "painful" 2 years and theres alot of crap out there that just doesn´t work, it´s amazing how they can keep getting awy with it! Now after soooo many disappointments I´m using Data Entry Pro and it´s now making me money (finally!) online.
Anyway, basically you sign up with them and then once your logged in you just fill in as many forms as you like in their members section and you get paid for each one. I get checks from them every 2 weeks each averaging around $250-$350. You could make more but I just use the site as an extra income stream aswell as my full time job so I only work on it for around an hour each night.
You do have to be prepared to spend a little money though if you want to do anything online like this but it´s already been worth it for me.
Here`s the link you can get them at anyway -%26gt; www.protry.com
Hope this helps!
