SurveySpot Pays Good!

Good morning fellow money makers. I have been doing surveys for this site called SurveySpot and recommend them as a must for everyone. Its completely FREE and they have great cash compensation and rewards. They also have a good amount of Product testing they pay you for.

Just yesterday I did a few surveys (maybe 30 minutes worth of my time) and I was chosen for 2 Product evaluations they are paying me to perform along with $16 cash. The Product testing pays between $5-10 each study so that's about $35 in 30 minutes from them. Not bad!



SurveySpot offers three ways to earn cash and prizes:

1. Instant Win Game
Every time you take a survey (whether you qualify or not), you get to play an Instant Win Game with thousands of dollars in cash and prizes.

2. $25,000 Cash Sweepstake
Every time you take a survey, you earn an entry into SurveySpot's $25,000 cash sweepstakes, awarded to one winner every quarter! There are also smaller amount awarded to many more winners. Great chances here.

3. Cash Awards
Certain surveys offer cash awards after you qualify and complete the survey. Details will be included in the email invitation you receive, so read them carefully.

A few tips about SurveySpot.
-They will send you several emails a day. Not all surveys pay, so read the email because they tell you the compensation up front.

-If you receive an email invitation and the survey says it takes 30 minutes to complete but no money is compensated, Start the survey anyway, but for the initial screener question that determine if you qualify, just check off that you work for a marketing company. Doing this will get you in the sweepstakes as well as give you the instant win game. Personally, I don't want to do the 30 minutes survey with no cash reward, so I just spend 1 minute, choose I work in a marketing compnay (because they dont allow anyone in marketing to join in surveys). and take the Instant Win game.

Establish a Goal

Step 3: Establish a Goal & a Technique for Yourself

Establishing a Goal
What do you want to accomplish from getting paid to take surveys? For example do you want to:

A. Take surveys for Fun and Win Cash & Prizes
B. Take surveys to Create a Second Income
C. Take surveys to take a Dream Vacation or buy a New Car
D. Take surveys to Create Enough Income to do this Full Time
E. Take surveys to Pay for College Costs
F. Take surveys to Supplement Your Social Security Benefits

Take a few minutes to think about what your goal will be for completing surveys. Then, most importantly, WRITE down your Goal & make a commitment to accomplish it! People who write their goals down and focus on them, usually succeed!

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.

Understanding Online Paid Surveys

There are a lot of misconceptions about the paid survey program and the most common one is that they are all scams. This is not true there are a lot of legit sites that pay you cash or rewards for your participation (some more then others) of cause there are lots of scams but you can protect yourself if you follow a few basic rules.

Rule#1:
Never use your primary email account to join these sites there are plenty of free web based email accounts and I recommend and use Yahoo mail with address guard. This will help protect you from spam mails.

Rule#2:
Always research the company before you sign up check with the Better Business Bureau and check out what other people have to say about them at forums. This will help you protect your identity and avoid being a victim phishing or identity theft.

Rule#3:
Read their FAQ, privacy policies, terms and conditions to understand exactly what you are signing up for. This will help you avoid singing up for something you were not aware of like subscribing to 3rd party mailing list or agreeing to have your personal information sold.

If you follow these 3 rules you have gone a long way in protecting your self and avoiding the scams.

Paid surveys is market research conducted by almost all businesses this is how they determine what the consumer would want. It is a legit tool that nearly all businesses use and it helps to shape the market place with products that are wanted.
Companies are willing to pay for this information and this is where you can profit as well as have a say in the products they will release.

Survey sites are engaged by businesses wishing to find out facts and statistics about a targeted audience and the survey site will pass it on to their members that meet the requirements of the study.
A good survey site will protect your personal information you can determine this from there privacy policies so make sure you read them very carefully.

You need to understand that not all payed survey sites are the same some pay money others give you entry into competitions and at least one I know of rewards you with lollies.
Every site has there own method of rewarding your participation so it is very important to follow Rule#3 so you know exactly what to expect from them and what they expect of you.
