  1. Whilst gathering market reserach information is something that there really is a demand for, there are plenty of unscrupulous operators in the net using this legitimate practice to con unwary internet users out of their money & giving very little in return.

    This is not to say however, that there aren't paid online survey sites which really do pay you to take online surveys for which you will make some really decent money from.

    The trick therefore is to be able to identify the scams from the legitimate survey sites - find out more about this by reading the article at the link below.......


  2. If you don't know anything about the online survey's (as you stated in your detailed message) I suggest you take a look at this article that explains in details what exactly you do, what's involved etc.  If you decide after reading and find survey's interesting to you, there are a couple places in which you can get the companies sites to do survey's for them.

  3. Hi I have done paid surveys for a while, and have been using this site http://www.mysurvey123.com which has articles of guide and advice on how to make money with paid surveys and how to avoid scams, free lists of legitimate survey sites and reviews and ratings. It should help you get a good understand and a good start.

  4. i have had both good and bad experiences... but if you sign up for online legit survey sites, you should be fine...

  5. Hi There,

    Good Post!  I love everything about business, escpecially the marketing and advertising parts.  These things make or break a business.  I've found many ways to advertise my business that might help you.  If you have a website, try SEO and PPC (pay per click from Google Adwords).

    If you advertise your business offline, try handing out flyers, printing coupons, and yellowpage advertising).

    The best method I've found yet is to buy business cards and hand them out everwhere.  I buy them from a place online that gives the cards for free and only charges for shipping and handling.  I hand these out to everyone I meet, and I leave them on cars where ever I go (I also got a free business card holder that looks really impressive)!

    Take care and good luck with your business!

  6. There are many good online paid survey sites which conduct market research surveys. Many of them give handsome rewards for your participation in online surveys. You have to join each of them individually and you get survey invitations by email. Rewards for surveys vary from $1 to $20 or more. Many pay for each survey you take or give you points which you can redeem for cash at a particular level. Some of them enter you into sweepstakes.

    All are free to join. The so called paid surveys which charge money like $35 for you to join are only databases of such free to join companies, which you have to join individually. But only 30 to 40 out of those 500 or so survey sites are really worth joining.

    I've included a list of the top 10 websites which I'm using on the above blog if you want to take a look.

  7. I can tell you from experience that none of the free surveys ever work.  The ones that are genuine end up paying you pennies for each survey and it is a waste of time.  The ones that promise thousnads of pounds per day are total rip offs and require you to buy stuff as well.

    A much better way of making some quick money is to clear out some stuff and sell on ebay.  Or trawl through some website and look for items (mobiles, electronics) that look really popular and are selling for more than you buy it from on ebay.  

    People will often not check that there are cheaper items available from shops before purchasing items on ebay so you can sell a phone for £20 more than you paid for it.  This works for me mopst of the time.

  8. every last one of the so called "surveys" were nothing more than marketing c**p! In order to get "paid" you MUST sign up for various "promotional" programs or sing up for "30 day free trials" that all end up costing you money.

  9. There are some scam sites, and some legitimate sites. I found a couple good ones. You wont make much money though, just a little extra money if you do a bunch of them. You bassicly earn points for the surveys, then cash out for a check once you reach a certain amount. You can email me (Carissa0788@yahoo.com) and I will give you the sites that I do.

  10. There are many online offers on Internet but most of them are scam! Before you join any work from home company, please check out http://quqi.org/scam-reports You will find some articles and guidelines to help you determine if a work from home opportunity is a scam or not.

  11. I know of two ways you can make money :

    1.If you are from the U.S this is a good way to make money. This site lets you receive cash for Survey offers. You sign up and get paid for giving for filling out surveys and pays around $5 to $10 per survey.The site is http://money.videowhack.com

    2.Open to all ,This is a lot of fun actually if you like music,You can get paid to review music,3pence per track and you have to listen to a track for a minute.As you improve and if you write meaningful reviews you'll get 5p,7p,9p,12p per track etc.

    You'll easily increase your pay leaving meaningful reviews.The site is http://slicethepie.com .Also read the forums for more info.Pays in pounds(sterling) to paypal.

    Both sites are free to join,just give it a shot and see what happens.

  12. I've done surveys for some time now and created a site that has everything I know about free online surveys. It has videos tutorial, legit survey sites that have paid me along with proof of payment, and contact info if you want more guidance or have questions.

    ;)
