How can i make money online doing surveys

[chilidog]

I would have thought this is a like a "mystery shopper" scam type, but it sounds as some have had legit experiences.

My wife actually does mystery shopping here in Costa Rica, but there's not many companies that do it. She works with one website, and the only 'job' that they've had recently was she had to go different Total gas stations around the area, get x amount of gas, buy something small, use the bathroom, etc., and report back this questionnaire, along with the scans for her receipts. She was reimbursed for the money spent, and typically paid about $40 for doing the job.

I'll ask her when she gets home which website it is, they have jobs like this all over the states.

Just found it in her paypal 'payments received' section. The company is called Corporate Research International.

ttwarrior1, Have you ever heard of Kim Komando? She's got a radio show and it's pretty damn good. She's sort of like a Consumer Advocate/Computer geek. I heard her say on her show once that https://www.surveysavvy.com is one of the few legitimate survey sites. I signed up for it a while back. I only did a couple of survey's and decided and they aren't for me. The pay isn't great either but it sounds like it might work for you. Check out Kim Komando's site as well. She might have other stuff that you might be interested in.

I have done a ton of these-now i just do a few because i do not have the time . It depends on what you are looking for overall.

If you want free products to test and points that convert to cash - NFO MY SURVEY
If you want quick points everyday that add up to gift cards - MYPOINTS
If you want points from surveys that add up quickly - OPINION OUTPOST

What about cash from doing surveys?

[robmpink]

Average survey?

Basically just answering a bunch of general related questions to whatever company is running the survey. If it is by a food company or something, they might ask you if you have tried their product, how you rate it, how you rate their packaging, how you rate their marketing, ect... Stuff like that. The cash offers "surveys" are basically just putting in your contact information, followed by saying yes or no to a bunch of sponsor advertisements until you reach the end. You will get spam emails so make a new email address specifically for these surveys if you do it.

70K, so what is the difference between your example #1 and #2? For #1 they give you products? I will check out the site. I would rather make some extra $$$$ here and there vs. shooting the shit here all of that extra time.

Yeah, a few years ago I would hear this stuff on the radio, paid ads, but you had to send in $$$ first. That is why I figured it was a scam.

Nah, she never had to pay anything.

#1 are actual surveys. #2 are called "surveys", but realistically, all you are really doing is getting paid to sign up for spam email from sponsors. I am mainly referring to the quick 0.25-0.75 cent ones. They have plenty of other stuff in there too like getting paid to sign up for free trials, signing up for netflix, stuff like that. Browse the forum over there, there are lots of good sticky threads that will help get you started. Some stuff there takes a while to get the hang of it, but once you do, you can fly right through the offers/surveys. p.s Don't use your real phone number on the surveys.

Good advice w/ the e-mail, but w/ the phone # do you just make one up? Will it neg affect you in anyway?

[robmpink]

70k, is the forum legit or there is a lot of fluff that may head you in the wrong direction? Like shills here and such? Any advice on what to look for in that forum? Thanks again.

I personally got one of those free voicemail phone numbers online to use. Wouldn't be an issue just making one up though. I have done that before, weren't any problems.

I must have been living under a rock for the past two years. What is the free online voicemail phone #'s?

Nevermind, I see. The k7 or whatever.

For the love of God. I'm already 30 minutes into a survey for high Cholesterol that will net me 75 cents. I feel like a worker in Haiti.

I usually avoid the daily surveys. A lot of them are really long. The 0.25-0.50 cent cash offer "surveys" usually take 2-4 minutes each. I can usually whip through at least 20 an hour.

[chibears]

Not worth the time. I've probably made 3-4K over the last four years from surveys and GPT sites, but I bet it's equated to about two bucks an hour.

You're better off sucking dick than doing online surveys...

tried those as well. but only got chump change so i gave up

[Jiggy Fly]

bump and how do i do this again jiggy.

Just google freelance article writing. Go to one of the sites and offer a bid. You will most likely have to submit 1 or 2 sample article. If the website owner likes your stuff, they'll give you more work. The better you are and the more you can write will make you more per article. The is one real popular site but I can't remember the name at the moment.

I like Inbox Dollars...2 cents per paid email that you read and around .50-$1 per survey..I have already gotten 1 $30 check from them. Plus they have paid shopping where you get cashback for buying stuff online, also they have coupons where each one you use at your local supermarket you get .10....so the coupon PLUS .10 from them...great deal all around



I will give you my referral link if you want via PM...I would thank you for signing up under me

[ZetaPsi808]

try inboxdollars dot com. damn bobby beat me to it lol

[will2survive]

freelance article writing--hmmm....sounds interesting

[bobbyfk]

I also like Pinecone Research by they are VERY hard to get on with as you have to find one of their URL banners somewhere

How much time did you spend on this for the $30 cheque?

[bobbyfk]

How much time did you spend on this for the $30 cheque?

only takes 3 mins a day to click on the few emails they send per day...also do some surveys for them and use the coupons so it all adds up

[OmgUrMom]

helium or associated content are both solid options.

you probably won't make a lot of money but you can make a couple dollars an hour so if you like writing it maybe worth yourtime

[chilidog]

Heh, too much work for too little pay. It'll take you forever to build up to $30. All my wife had to go do was fill up her tank at certain gas stations. $40 and reimbursement of the gas. Just create an account at that site, and put in your zip code, and you'll see all the jobs they currently need. I know it sounds scammy, but it's really not. No charge for anything, and you get paid to your paypal account within a week of completing the job.

[ttwarrior1]

googled freelance writing and see nothing

[ttwarrior1]

no idea why this is underlined, but the inbox dollars site is asking for
my phone number and home address

Im not giving my real address and gonna get junk in the mail and phone calls, so no idea what to do now

if you dont give your real address you will not get the checks in the mail. they will not call you, this is normal FOR ANY site you sign up for...give them a fake number if your worried about it

[Tree Rollins]

I just made 1,000 dollars doing surveys this morning....but I don't really feel like discussing it, too sleepy.

Why are you beating off in your avatar?

[BettingGeek]

try cashcrate or swagbucks. they are the best 2 sites out there.

[ttwarrior1]

ok i signed up for the inbox, says i have 5 bucks for signing up, did one survey that took almost 30 minutes for 50 cents, but probaly
gonna get tons of junk mail and real mail now.

I see nothing else to do on this inbox site. Looks like it wants me to spend money on products.

[ttwarrior1]

**** that shit, site says i can't use a yahoo email and it wanted my ss number. **** no and **** that site.
