I have been taking paid surveys for about 2 1/2 years. It is possible to make alot of money taking surveys. But the money is not consistent. One month you may make $1000. The next month you may not make anything.

I have joined hundreds of survey panels. In the end I found that they are a great way to make extra income, but not a way to support yourself. However, I recently re-joined NFO, NPD, and Synovate. Just with those three I receive a survey almost everyday.

Personally, I use::

CashCrate
SendEarnings
A.W. Sruveys
SWATCash
Gangster Greed
and
Fairy Tale Treasures

With AW Surveys I made $75 in a single day. The only problem is that they dont predict I'll recieve my check until September. Same with SendEarnings.
Gangster Greed, on the other hand, has a PayPal option that doesn't charge you anything and the minimum payout is $10 (which is extremely simple to make).
Most surveys you don't have to 'qualify' for and there are several cash offers that are worth over 10 and even 20 dollars. They're worth a shot.
Like lilokster said, it's a great way to make some extra money - but not a way to support yourself.

You can make quite a bit in the first couple of months from joining and doing the offers avaiable on the top survey/offer sites. My first three months earnings were $290, $465 and then $310. Keep in mind that you will run out of offers, though, especially the CC offers. Doing the free trial offers is where you make the real money, but once you do them all, you can't do them again (for most). I am a member of about 30 sites. i don't do offers from all of them anymore, simply because I do not have enogh time. I still average about $250 a month, including my participation from actual survey sites like GlobalTestMarket Pinecone and Greenfield. 250 might not sound like much, but it pays off my car payment every month!

But don't you find you spend an unhealthy amount of time on the net? I started to get a little bored of the surveys - many are very similar. It was novel at first, but I've started to pick and choose which ones I do which means the level of pay will start to drop.

Must be the summer weather. Oh, hold on. I'm in the UK. There is no summer weather.

I think I'll concentrate on blogging about something other than surveys - I enjoyed writing about them more than doing the darn things. I like to keep myself amused...

Not for me. I am pretty efficient at doing surveys, while, of course, still being conscious to take the time to read, answer honestly, etc. But I have heard that before, William H...some people do get bored with it...I'm just happy that I am not one of them.

I have actually signed up for so many survey programs. I actually liked the ones that allowed you to go to a specific location to survey a product and make $100.00. I can say, I was very impatient with the amount of time I put into taking these daily surveys, and It was more for my opinion than for pay, or I would have to join several of their sponsors, which for me became annoying.
I am sure there are some very good ones out there, but I personally believe it would be best to not depend on taking surveys, to replace your job.

I have been using CashCrate for the last few months and they really do send a paycheck, although I would not consider it a replacement for a real job. It is an extra income that adds up. So far it has averaged about $30-35 a month for me with little effort. Referrals do make a big difference in your earnings. I also use Pinecone Research. They always pay right away with paypal but I do not get a lot of surveys from them. I have lots of tips for CashCrate posted on my blog. Good luck!

hey there, I would suggest doing a few survey sites that will let you get paid more. combined, I received around $150 last month by doing 3 survey sites, and it was just my first month :] here's a few that i recommend:

1). fusioncash : this site has a lot of offers to complete, they're not surveys - just offers, but you don't need a credit card for many of these (i've personally never done a credit card offer). i do recommend using an email where you don't mind getting lots of emails from offers you signed up with, etc., but this site definitely pays - i've earned around $80 for just spending maybe 2 hours browsing around and completing those offers. minimum payout of $25 and you can cash out only once a month, but you do get a $5 signup bonus. another good thing about this site is that their administration is amazing - they have the quickest responses.

2). cashlagoon : once again, many offers to complete, no surveys though - same sort of thing as fusioncash, except the minimum payout is $5 anytime you want (the quickest service i've ever had), and trust me, $5 is really easy to reach :] they have lots of bonus opportunities, such as proof of payments getting up to $4 (verified quickly), and sometimes they give out coupon codes for $2 :]

3). cashcrate : a survey, offer, and paid to shop site - surveys you can take 2 a day, for 80 cents each, and they're actually easy to qualify for (from my experiences). $10 minimum cashout, and it's once a month.

the sites listed above are all linked in my sig, and those are the ones i have proof of payment for as of now. if you want to know about some other ones that others have proof of payment for, just let me know :]

I am sticking with CashCrate right now because they are the only site that I actually receive a check from. I have never made enough money anywhere (except PineCone Research) to meet the minimum payout requirements. CashCrate is actually more of an offer site but they do have daily surveys too. I just received my second check from them last week. You can find more information posted on my blog.

A little known fact is that many surveys do not accept input from people outside of USA. Many also will make money themselves by making you go to other survey sites.

Wow.. I haven't visited in awhile but for anyone reading, this thread has went from talking about surveys to a discussion of paid offer sites. There is a HUGE difference.

True survey sites don't ask you to complete offers or read email for pennies. Real survey sites pay you for your opinion about different services and products. Some examples are bakerstreet, johnson and johnson, esearch and NFO.

So many people think they are signing up to give their opinion and then are disappointed when the site wants them to buy a product to get a gift card.

I just wanted to throw out some clarification here.
