Is it worthy to use pay per survey online websites for earning money?

Scott Allen writes: "In short, yes you can make money with these programs, but not much.

I think the best one would be Mypoints because you have other methods of raising points as well as taking surveys. You need to have a tolerance for solicited and approved commercial emails. In ten years, I've earned over $3,000 in gift certificates.No really... mypoints.com.

Doing surveys can put a little extra cash in your pockets but won't provide much more than that. It's nice to have the extra money, if you have the time to devote to doing surveys. You might want to join several sites and take the first few paying surveys that come along from each, to get a feel for the company.

After that you can decide which companies and types of survey work best for you. There's more to selecting a survey company than method of payment. A good starting point is surveypolice.com/.Read through the comments of users to get an idea about the trustworthiness of the site.

For instance, the site that's currently on the bottom pays with PayPal but it's not highly rated. User comments can help you decide which survey companies to consider. Points sometimes equal cash.

Some sites, such as Greenfield, pay directly via PayPal. Others, like Lightspeed, give you points you can redeem for cash through PayPal. Your best bet is to pick some well rated sites, visit them and see what they have to offer.

Since you know your circumstances, you're best qualified to know which payment system works for you. Also, the survey companies themselves change their programs. Test Spin, for instance, plans to add PayPal, so today I could say they don't do PayPal but that information could be wrong for who someone reads this a few months down the road.

There are also programs that reward you for buying as well as surveys. Memolink, Quizpoints and MyPoints are programs like this. If you want to buy flowers from FTD, say, you click on a link on the reward program's site and shop normally, earning points for every dollar you spend.

You can redeem the points for prizes, sometimes including cash from PayPal. If you do a lot of online shopping anyway, these programs can be a good deal. The trap is you could be lured into buying more than usual, to get the points.

I have earned some easy money with surveys. I have earned money for testing products. Pinecone and ACOP are good about sending you things to try and test for.

I earned $15 in cash one day using a bottle of babywash.

Only if you find the genuine ones. There are a lot of them online, but most of them don't really pay.

I am different enough that I rarely qualify to answer the surveys, LOL, so it doesn't work for me. Mypoints, though, can work very well. A friend of mine consistently earns enough every year to pay for transportation, hotel, and registration for a convention she attends.It costs a total of about $1000 and she earns it all through Mypoints!

There are sites that do legitimately pay. Pinecone research is definitely legitimate. Some of the surveys are interesting because you get to see products before they come out, but honestly the surveys are very long sometimes.

Luckily, you can do ones available to you at your leisure and on your own time (as long as they havent expired).

There are many sites out there that really do pay. Get Paid To Try is one of the better ones. Yes, there are lots of scams -- you just have to check the sites out.

Try Get Paid - I've been a member for a long time. getpaidtotry.com.

Yes, of course you can earn some quick and easy money from the legitimate paid survey sites. However I do not think that it can be the only option of income.

In my opinion no, the base of these sites are an affiliate relationship with the main outlets: IE 1. SurveySite has a relationship with "website A" website A pays SurveySite a percentage of a 'sale' or email address, or sign up or even per visit. 2.

SurveySite says, fill out this 'survey' and usually this requires a sign up at another site. 3. That sign up ( or information and demographics) makes Survey Site money from "website A".

Multiply that by 100 "website A's". So no it isn't a great way to make money online, you will spend more time looking for 'paid' surveys to even add up the cash. Most pay in 'points' and when you get enough 'points' you are able to cash out, but truthfully it takes forever!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
