Can you really make money taking online surveys?

Question

Can you really make money taking online surveys?

Answer 1

There are many better ways to make money online. The real trick is sorting out the legitimate money-makers from all the scams that are out there (many of which get listed at Yahoo Answers, I'm afraid).

There's a terrific list at eHow that gives more than 25 legitimate ways to make money online.  The list covers everything from writing (articles, blogs), to selling photography, to (believe it or not) getting paid for online jury duty, surveys, and focus groups.

There's even a site for making money listening to music and rating it, and another for playing online games.

None of the sites in the article ask you for any money.  And while they won't make you rich, you can begin to build up a respectable income.

The list is updated regularly, so you may want to check it once a week or so.

I have earned a lot of money doing online surveys. Try taking a lot at the website on my profile page. It has tons of information on how to earn some extra income and they are all free to join. If you work a few hours a week on any of these sites you can make some extra cash. Some sites on the website will pay you monthly while others daily. Some will pay by check and others through your paypal account. The site has more detailed information about all the ways you can earn money online. I have received checks from all of them. I hope these helps you. Good luck

You won't even make gas money, it is a complete waste of time and anyone telling you otherwise is out to lunch or just in need of candy money. There are several great opportunities available to people looking to make a real income from home. Just do your homework and research each and everyone. If they are with and/or rated by the BBB that's a good first sign. I am always available to answer your questions and help in anyway I can.

Answer 4

Actually, survey's are not scams.  You can really make money taking online surveys.  However, there's a lot of different things about survey's that you need to know and understand how they work and how to make the most of it.  A lot of time is involved in survey's.  They won't make you wealthy, but they can make ends meet.

There's an article here on yahoo that I think you should read and learn about what's all involved in survey's.  The writer has a lot of really good information as well as survey's that do work and can make you a little bit of money.

Yes There are real websites and companies do it in a legit way.

Yes, you can.  Despite what others have said, there are some legit sites.  There are some scams too.  You just have to know what you're getting into :)  I would reccomend joining as many sites as possible, since you'll get more invites that way.  But you shouldn't have to pay to join or pay for a list of sites.  I'll send you a list of the sites I use for free if you want, just send me a message.

Working at home is usually either about working for a normal company from home or just working for yourself. Most people work for themselves.

So you know there's no easy way to get rich quick online. You'll probably have to work at least 5 hours every day online to actually make enough to live off, depending what you do. When I first started working online I was working almost all day and barely making $100 a day. But you get used to it and learn what works and what doesn't work. Probably the biggest thing is putting in the time and the research.

But if you do your research you see what works and what doesn't. Like surveys and blogging make you next to no money, and rebate processing, data entry, and mlm stuff's usually a scam, especially places offering to show you how to do it for money. That doesn't mean all programs that show you how to make money online are scams, but a lot are. It's basically like buying a book. Some books are great and some just suck lol

I've been working at home for 3 years and the biggest things to remember are to stay motivated, do research, and apply what you learned with your research. If applying it doesn't make you a lot of money, go back to square one and find another way. Email me if you ever want any help :)
