How to Earn Money Completing Online Surveys

You'll find all you need to know here, including lists of the best survey companies and alternative opportunities available.

This is not a get rich quick opportunity, but you can put real money in your pocket every month. Surveys pay on average from $1 to $200 a survey.

Don't scoff at the $1 minimum either, most of the low paying surveys take only a few minutes to complete. Complete thirty $1 surveys in an hour and you just made $30 an hour- not too shabby.

A computer, the willingness to earn extra money, a little creativity, and about an 1/2 hour to an hour a day.

Reall, that's all!

Find the major players (meaning who will pay you the most and pay you promptly!)

This is easy as we've outlined them here on the Avoid Scams and Earn Money blog

Another way to find new survey companies is to simple run a Google search for "paid surveys" or "survey companies."

However, when running your own search, WATCH OUT FOR MOCK SURVEY SITES- these are sites that promise you thousands for signing up with them. Don't believe the hype, these are mostly scam websites harvesting your information to re-sell elsewhere.

Most importantly when running your own search, remember NEVER, EVER PAY someone for a survey list or access to taking surveys. These offers are not legit.

Money should flow to you when you participate in surveys, not away from you into someone else's pocket.

Be persistant and consistent!

Check your suvey sites daily if you want to get in on the maximum opportunities.

Be truthful and accurrate when completing surveys.

Companies watch for consistency and will often reward you with extra surveys or higher paying surveys.

Create a seperate email account just for surveys.

It's okay to use your main email, but if you create a separate email just for surveys, it will help keep things organized and help keep you in the mindset that each time you open your survey account, you will working and you will be earning!

If you don't have the ability to set up extra email accounts through your regular email service provider, you can easily sign up for free accounts at Google.com or Yahoo.com.

It takes a little setup time to establish yourself with survey companies, but it's well worth it. For a very small time investment, you can earn a nice side income.

Also- COMPLETE ALL SCREENERS! Screeners are very short surveys that survey companies send out to see if you qualify for a paid survey.

Some people don't like to complete screeners as there are typically no dollars offered for the effort BUT the screeners take seconds to complete and can be very rewarding.

For example, I just completed a screener that led me to a $35 survey. Now that's worth it!
