Paid surveys are becoming a very popular way to make extra money
online. The sites that provide these surveys are owned or contracted
by market research companies. These companies value your opinion
and are willing to pay you for spending some time filling out
surveys about various products.
New to online surveys? Here are some tips:
After you sign up with a survey site you will be asked give some
demographic information about yourself, and possibly to take a
few unpaid surveys. These are usually called profile surveys.
Not all survey sites have profile surveys, but if they are available
you should fill them out as soon as possible. Doing so will help
you later to qualify for more paid surveys.
Once in a while you will receive a survey invitation in your
email. Some sites may send you several invitations per week, while
others may send invites once a month or less. The number of invites
you receive also depends on your demographics. If you accept the
invitation, you will first be given a screener,
which is a few short questions to see if you qualify for the full
survey. If you qualify, you can expect to spend from 5 to 20 minutes
filling out the survey.
The amount paid for a survey varies widely - $1-$5 for typical
surveys, to as much as $50 or more for highly specialized surveys.
Most survey sites do not pay you directly after completing each
survey, but instead send you a total payment after you have reached
a certain amount. This amount is known as the minimum
cashout.

sites in Paid Surveys
The sites listed below are examples of exceptional sites in this section of the directory.
Or, you can browse all 19 sites in this section.
American
Consumer Opinion sends several screeners each month.
If you qualify for the full survey, you will be paid for every single
survey you complete - there is no minimum amount you must reach
before you can cash out. Additionally, all members of American Consumer
Opinion are entered automatically into a monthly cash drawing without
having to do anything extra, which makes it very worth your while
to sign up.
Esearch is
one of the highest paying survey sites on average. However, they
send a very small number of survey invitations - typically just
one or two per month. There are no profile surveys to fill out,
so participation is easy, making Esearch a very good site to sign
up with alongside other survey sites. Besides cash, Esearch also
offers rewards such as gift certificates for completed surveys.
Global Test Market
is a long running site that compensates well for its surveys and
sends plenty of invitations. Users are rewarded for every single
survey with "MarketPoints" which are then turned in for
cash, at a rate of 20 MarketPoints = $1.00. Most surveys offer anywhere
from 50 to several hundred MarketPoints for completing, and you
will receive some points even if you do not qualify for a particular
survey. You can also refer your friends via email for more points.
If you join only one survey site, Global Test Market should be the
one.
MySurvey
(previously known as NFO MySurvey) is another survey site that rewards
its users with points that can later be redeemed for cash. On MySurvey,
100 points is equivalent to $1.00 and some surveys offer as much
as 1,000 points for completing. MySurvey features a number of different
sweepstakes as well. There is a daily 10,000 point ($100) drawing
for all members of the site - you only need to log on to their site
to qualify for the drawing - and an additional $10,000 drawing awarded
several times a year. MySurvey is also known to occasionally award
bonus points simply for good participation on their site.
Your2Cents
offers a few extra bonuses over typical survey sites. First, they
reward you just for filling out your profile surveys - $1 each.
They also have a few other types of surveys - text based surveys
that you can receive on your cell phone, and telephone based surveys.
These offer extra incentives compared to the standard web based
surveys. Note that these extra surveys are entirely optional. Your2Cents
has a minimum cashout of $10 and is available in the US and Canada
only.
