paid surveys online?

Question

can you really make money doing surveys and if so which sites are the best and pay you right away and dont have you do any additional entries just the surveys

Answer 1

Although there are probably some legitimate paid to do surveys on-line programs. Finding one that isn't just an outright scam is hard. Even then if you do find one that actually pays, you have to usually buy into the pyramid scheme to generate any real money.

Answer 2

I've listed most of the sites I have taken surveys through and actually been paid (or received other rewards like gift cards or CD'S) on the following webpage.

http://www.windhavenweb.com/surveys

I list how they pay you, what I like and dislike about them, whether they have an affiliate or referral program, etc. (And yes, if I say they have an affiliate program, I'm part of it, and make a commission when someone signs up through that link...I like to be up front about that). If you want to be paid right away you will want to avoid to the ones that pay through a points system. Your2Cents also has a minimum you have to earn before you can cash out (even though they don't use a points system).

You say you don't want to do any additional entries? I'm afraid that's not going to happen. If a site doesn't make you do profiles (unpayed surveys which match you up with payed surveys) they will make you take screener questions right before the survey that ask the same thing--and if don't match up you don't get payed for these questions. I persoanlly prefer the profile method because then (usually) you don't have to answer these questions (like your gender and such) every time you answer a survey--you just do it once.

But watch out--there are also scams out there. Here are some tips to avoid them:

Don't sign up for any survey site which asks you to pay to access the surveys. Also watch for language like "get paid for taking surveys AND SIGNING UP FOR OFFERS" if you don't want to have to sign up for stuff with other companies to get paid.

Always carefully read their terms of service and privacy policy. If in their privacy policy they say they only use aggregated info, this is GOOD SIGN they are legit. Aggregated info information that is grouped together so it can't be connected with anyones personal identification like name, e-mail, phone or address. That's what survey sites SHOULD collect. Avoid sites that say they give, rent, or sell any personal information (info that is not aggregated) to third parties (unless you really don't mind getting junk mail, telemarketing calls, and spam).

Also, never sign up for a survey through an unsolicited e-mail--since these might not even be from the site they claim to be, but could be a phishing scheme to get your information and mis-use it. And never give your credit card info--there is no good reason a legitimate free site would need it.

I have tried many sites but the one that i am currently using has paid me over $150 in the last 2 weeks.It isn't a survey company ,BUT BETTER. All you have to do is leave a broswer open and you earn up to $0.75/1 hour.
So if you leave it on 24/7 based on $.75 you could be earning
$504 per month.Best part is if you tell freinds and family to join under you , you can have a % of what there earning increasing your income.I highly recommend it.Heres the link

I've had a lot of luck with SurveySavvy. It's free to join and they are a member of the better business bureau. You're not going to get rich, but if you don't mind referring other people you can start earning at least $50 a month. Anyway, i'm making about $75 a month and they are probably the most reputable free scam free survey site out there.

Internet is so crucial nowadays that it becomes a part of your day-to-day regular. You can read the newspaper, check your e-mail, upgrade your Facebook status, shop online for Christmas gifts, Skype with pals, search on Google and so on but the most essential is that you can also get a daily paid task, a job where you get paid easily without any headache.
