Get Paid For Surveys - Six Secrets for Making Real Money From Free Online Paid Online Surveys

Six things to keep in mind in order to succeed...

Paid online surveys are a very big business on the Internet. Every month millions of dollars are paid out to survey participants. Some of them get paid for surveys and do well, make good money. Others barely survive and never seem to make any real money. The difference is in: 1. Understanding the business, 2. Going about it in the proper way.

All surveys are NOT equal. Only about 19-25% of the surveys offered on the Net are legitimate paid online surveys that pay well, on time and pay in cash or equivalent. Perhaps another 40% or so are marginal but still worthwhile. You will still get paid for surveys and make money; you just won't get paid as much.

When you do it right and sign up with the ones you should, you will make about half your money from the first group and the other half from the second.

The remaining 40% or so of surveys are low-pay/no-pay types that will just waste your time. There is no way that you will really get paid for surveys with this type. You will want to avoid these time-wasters completely.

So the 1st secret of making money with paid surveys is to get a good list of survey makers to sign up with. A good list will have mostly the first two categories and very little of the time-wasters group.

Where do you get a good list? Start by understanding that there is no such thing as a "free list". Every list is paid for, some by the survey participants and the rest by the survey makers. Those you don't pay for are being paid for by lower quality survey makers to recruit you for their non-paying surveys.

The distributors of "free lists" live off of commissions they get for recruiting people for survey makers with high participant turnover. Their turnover is high because the surveys either don't pay or don't pay enough to be worthwhile.  Or the "survey maker" is really a sales company that only wants to sell stuff to you.

The 2nd secret is that you are not likely to get paid for surveys or make any money from a list of survey makers that you did not pay for.
