Doing Online Paid Surveys

Things you should know about surveys

If you are reading this then you are probably interested in earning some money from doing paid surveys or want to find out a little more about them.

Paid surveys are real and not all scams I can assure you of this and if you join the right ones you will make some money but how much you make will depend on lots of factors.

To start with you should understand what is required of you and what you should expect from the survey company's you join so I strongly recommend you read the FAQ's, Terms of Service and most importantly their Privacy Policy so you know exactly what they will do with your personal information, you do not what them giving it away to third parties.

All good survey sites will keep your personal information confidential and never pass it on to a third party if they do this then it is more then likely the site you joined is a scam. This is why I stress the fact you read their Privacy Policy. If you are unsure about a site your thinking of joining then I sagest you visit a few forums and see what other people are saying about them or check them out at the Better Business Bureau

Factors affecting your earnings

Demographics are the major factors that will determine how many online surveys you receive as they are generally targeted to a specific group of people. I.e.: a company wants to find out what brand and how much beer men between the ages of 20 to 40 drink on an average day. (Well they are not going to send this to female, non drinkers or people not in that age group.)

The best way to make sure you qualify for the most possible survey invites is to keep your profile up to date and with accurate information including your sex, age, location, ethnicity, and family structure. The more information they have about you the more likely you will get surveys.

Making the Most of Paid Surveys

The best way to make the most money from paid surveys is to use their referral programs by inviting friends and family to join under you in some cases you will make more money this way then by doing the surveys. Try adding referral links to your signature in your emails. Just be careful how you do it you do not want to be accused of spamming

Join lots of sites there are literally hundreds even thousands of sites you can join just be carful and do your research before you join them. This website Paid Survey Reviews has a list of what I found to be the best survey sites as well as a link to proof of payment it also contains lots more useful information that will help increase the amount you earn doing online paid surveys.
