Are Paid Surveys Online Real Or Scam?

Most likely, you've seen many ads spread all over the internet about online surveys. The question is, are they real? Or just a scam? I've tried joining survey sites like surveysavvy and surveyspot but never cash out a single cent. Why? I've never had a survey to be answered. I have never answered one because most surveys are not available in my country, Philippines. And one more reason it doesn't fit my profile. They look for professionals and not a student like me.

Even though I've never cash out from these online survey sites I can guarantee you that there are legitimate survey sites that really pays. It does not make you rich but it will make you earn couple of hundreds. It is okay because is is free and they do not spam you. You can try these survey sites that really pays: Greenfield,brand institute, surveysavvy, Synovate, pinecone, NPD surveys, Lighspeed, Your2cents, opinion outpost, ipsos, American consumer opinion, Surveyspot and globaltestmarket.

Tips and Tricks from http://www.paidsurveys.co.in/surveytips.htm


•Signup with as many paid survey sites as possible. Be honest with your personal details while signing up.

•It may be better if you use an email address specifically for this purpose.

•Bookmark any sites that have a login section, creating a separate "Surveys" folder in your favorites. That way you can easily access all you survey panels

•Many survey sites have a "profiles" section where you can answer questions about your interests, home, job and other details. Be sure to fill out all profile surveys as this increases your odds of being selected for a survey.

•Check your email daily for survey invitations. Many surveys will remain only as long as the required number of respondents are reached. So, if you are early, you can get more surveys.

•It is better to participate in a survey, even if it for a drawing. The odds of winning the drawings are quite good as the number of participants are limited and the prizes are also good.


•Be honest while doing the surveys. Your opinions are important for the company conducting the survey and as they are paying you. They are entitled to get an honest opinion from you in return for the rewards they give you.

•Get a free personal Paypal account as many sites pay by paypal.

•Roboform is a nice program that will store information such as your name, email, address etc. and will save you lots of time while registering for paid survey sites. It will also save your login names and passwords so you need not remember them all.
