Hi lilokster,
Just to add to your list in Australia the best website would have to be emailcash. Survey Savvy also has a good referral system that can earn you some extra money.

Best survey company out there is Treasure Trooper. Check their forums and you'll see millions of checks scanned and posted by their users. I myself have just started but i have faith in this company and there's a lot of other things to earn money on not only doing surveys.
Thanks

I would agree...they are not. They are one of those sites with "daily surveys" but not really a survey company. That said, I have been paid by them and more or less do like them. But do think people need to understand there is a big difference.

That's exactly it.. if people would just advertise them as an "offer" site they would get more referrals. There are tons of people who love doing those offers.. Im one of the ones who doesn't like them and prefer doing the real surveys for research companies.

Best paying cash site, well you can ask 100 different people and get 100 different answers. Because it all comes down to having the right demographics at the right time at the right site. I don't think I could say just one of any of the sites that pay me as there is an ebb and flow to who pays, how much and when...

True, lately I've been getting a LOT of surveys and product tests from Ipsos but last year I can think of maybe only one or two. Last year most of mine came from NFO, this year.. not so many but still regularly.

So far the best one I found was AWSurveys.com
They offer a $6.00 signup survey which is quick and most of there surveys pay around $5.00

Hmmm, Mark1243, I would need more information than that to go beyond the front page of that site.

Yea awsurveys is a pretty basic site. So far they offered me I think around 7 surveys probably averaging $5 for each. I just recently signed up with them, once you log in there is something saying they are new or something like that...I have gotten 0 junk mail from them so far so thats good lol

So far, everything I have heard about awsurveys is that there are $36 in surveys for everyone to start...but you have to have $75 to cash out and then there is a $25 "fee" for cashing out???
But I haven't heard of anyone getting to the $75 level without using referrals...meaning those first 6 surveys are all there are? Any insights?

I must be doing something wrong. I've joined well over half of the companies listed at the top of this page; I've tried to do MANY survey's, as they are sent to me. 90% of the time, after maybe 2 or 3 questions, I am told 'sorry, you don't qualify for this survey'.
I'm getting tired of NOT qualifying. I done quite a few surveys in the past month, but haven't received one dime yet.
I'm beginning to believe these Survey's are all SCAMS. I heard you could make a few hundred extra bucks a month. I have yet to see ANY money.
Anyone else with this experience?

Im sure Happygal knows (I know her reputation as good) and I know as well.. this just doesn't sound like a survey company...
Most survey companies don't have a standard amount of surveys.. they have a survey available when they have a contract for a study. I have never seen a survey site that can offer a survey just for signing up. They need a set demographic for whatever study they are conducting...
I would vote to skip this awsurvey thing.. use a good list (I have one and so does happygal and so does pcwork) They are good lists that don't include the junk sites.

Ok, Every survey site I have joined, says they will pay you to take surveys so I go through all the dumb questions all the way to the bottom and come to find out that before you get payed for the survey, you have to sample their product. And until you sample it and the product owner gives an ok on it, you dont get nothing. Now I have no idea what happens beyond that cuz my momma didnt raise no idiot. I just wish there was anything out there that is real! It is really not that much to ask for, is it?? Why should I have to pay out to get payed to take a survey?? Only a moron would jump on that! So ya, I dont get it! AHEM......

You didn't join a true survey company if this happened. You joined an "offer" site. There is a difference. Unfortunately a lot of the offer sites try to pass themselves off as survey companies. The sites listed on my website are NOT offer companies.. just true survey sites.

my experience is that it is indeed very difficult and tiresome to get good results doing surveys.
I started a year ago, I registered with lots of companies and I got plenty of questionnaires to fill in - BUT to get past the screeners and complete an entire questionnaire is a matter of demographics and out of your control. So I found that at the end of the day it takes up too much time to achieve a reasonable result - basically it is a waste of time.

Just popped in to ask if arc Survey is legit (I'm new to this) and if I will receive the surveys automatically in my mailbox. Also, is there one or two companies worth looking at (for a 17 year old European)?

I just started on them. I joined about 20 of them and made about $20, but that is spread out over 15 sites and half that was sign up bonus money. The best 2 so far I found are
www.inboxdollars.com and www.surveyspot.com Survey spot usually has a survey, paid me $5 for a long one and entry into sweepstakes for the other short ones. Many I don't qualify for.
If you want to try this at least go to inbox dollars first, they will pay you buck/buck and a half to join some of the others and $5 to join them and they seem legit.
Greenfield surveys I have seen good reviews for, they were horrible to me. One survey was 30-35 minutes long, I was actually on Wal Mart site, made to look for products, then they wanted me to register and said "don't use credit card unless you want to because this site is real and it will be charged". I got NOTHING for it except entry into a sweepstakes for 30 minutes of my time. It was a commercail for Wal Mart not a survey.
There is one site you pay for that gets you into 500 surveys, pick the ones you want. I forget the name, it is consistently rated no. 1 unless the rating sites are just doing cross marketing. It's $39.95 , but leave the site and they offer it to you for $29.95 lol. If you are serious it's probably a good idea to use them.
One person I know on internet makes about $400 a month. You would want to join focus groups and read emails, which is a scam for person paying emails to be read, to add income.
I got better things to do but when I get requests in email I take them. I will post more if any good happens.

I also would say you need a company that allows you to track your earnings, has a page for that. I noticed a few don't, won't be taking their surveys anymore.
www.inboxdollars.com has emails I click and get .05 everyday lol. They also have an earnings page on it. Survet spot doesn't, I earned $5 but they say it takes 6 weeks or longer to show up anywhere.

Let's see...yes, ARC survey is legit...don't send a whole lot of surveys, but they do pay for what they do send.
Second, to Robertlaf's point...I would never recommend paying for a list of sites. There are so many of us out there who are willing to share our experience for free. Even if it's "discounted" or anything like that, just don't bother...you don't need to pay a penny. You will not find any information there you won't find elsewhere for free.

I wouldn't recommend paying for a survey list either at first. I would join all the best ones and see if it works for you. But if I was making money and this list keeps coming up as being great, , I would look into it. It has 500 surveys and might have something overlooked here.
I do loss mitigation and I buy courses from ebay even though I have a great company/course. I keep learning and I got a great tip from one of them.
I wouldn't pay for it at first either though.
I have also found the best surveys are for upper mangement people, if you are there why would you be doing surveys?
