Paid Survey Sites for Spanish-speaking People in the U.S

{These sites have lists of survey makers that deal with surveys directed at the 41 million people in the U.S. who speak Spanish. (The U.S. now has the 5th largest Spanish-speaking population in the world!) If you speak Spanish and live in the U.S. you should check these out!]

 [If anyone wants a translation, please let me know. But the sites are in Spanish, the surveys are in Spanish, and I figured that if you can't read what they say in Spanish here then you probably would not be interested anyway ;-) ]

 "Penalty Box"

In Ice Hockey, when players break the rules and mis-behave the officials take them out of the game and put them in the penalty box. The game then goes on without their participation. They can only watch and wait until it is O.K to come out of the penalty box and get back in the game.

Some paid survey sites we have been following now have Composite Refund Indexes of over 15%! That's such a bad paid survey review that it's a bit ridiculous! Another, Paid Survey Program, has not filed their reports with ClickBank so we cannot calculate their refund rate. (Any site that hides their refund data is most likely NOT proud of it! We equate "Unknown" with "High" and don't allow any such to remain on the active list.)

So we built the "penalty box" below and put them into it, "out of play" and away from the rest, until they get their acts together. ;-)

Commentary:

At one time, size was a major factor in choosing good paid survey sites. Bigger was better. Then for a few months the refund rates of many larger sites went up and stayed up. Big paid survey sites were starting to look like dinosaurs, big, but slow to adapt to new conditions! Many of the smaller, innovative sites have got much better marks from their clients, as expressed in their refund rates.

But recently the larger sites have made a comeback, rising to the top in results according to their clients and as expressed in their refund rates.

Some sites have "gone private", using ClickBank only for a collection agent, which makes their full refund rate figures unavailable to the public (you and I!). Instead of making the changes needed to provide more client satisfaction, they took steps to hide the size of their failures to please their clients! We no longer list any sites that have gone this route.

We also brought some of the smaller paid survey sites that we have been tracking, into the top 20 list. They are smaller but have very good refund rate numbers. We prefer a small paid survey site with a 5% refund rate to a large site whose refund rate is over 10%!!

Recent Changes:

Surveys for Checks, once in the "penalty box" for having too high refund rates, has now improved and qualified to "get back in the game". It has been reinstated and added to our top 20 list, replacing Top Dollar Surveys which was dropped from the list when its gravity measure dropped below 1.5.

Legit Online Jobs, once on this list, does some things with surveys but has changed and now has more to do with grants, mystery shopping and other ways to make money on the Net. It has been dropped from the list of the top 20 paid survey sites and added to our Get Paid to Shop Etc list. It was replaced here by Top Paying Surveys, a new site that has been performing well and growing rapidly.

Two Spanish sites are also relatively new here: "Encuestas Por Dinero" (Surveys for Money) and "Encuestas Remuneradas" (Paid Surveys). These sites are set-up for Spanish-speaking people who live in the U.S. or Canada. They deal with surveys being made of/for the 41 million-person Hispanic demographic.

They both have good rankings, but were not included in or compared directly with the sites in English. Instead, we have established a separate category for them, as yet unranked, since there are only two in that category.

Refund rates are down a bit for this half-month period. The average refund rate for the latest half-month period for our top 20 paid survey sites was 6.74%.

We show the past average refund rates in a table by date, which you can see on the right-hand side of this text.

ClickBank earlier made some changes in the way it reports numbers which may cause some distortion in the absolute values this half month. It will not affect the relative positions of the sites evaluated.

When we have sites whose numbers are in transition from changes in prices or otherwise off-scale and not reliable, we indicate this by "n/a" (Not Available right now).

Note that none of our picks had either a 2 week or a Composite Index refund rate higher than 7.14% (1 client in 14). All things being equal we felt that the refund rate was the single most important measure of client satisfaction and determiner of the quality of their service. We tend to favor larger companies over smaller ones, based on the market's choice and greater stability.

We now print the refund rates of all with refund rates of 10% or higher, of our top 20 in Red above. This is to highlight their low desirability status and urge caution with these. Note that we have added a red "X" to the left of each of these, to point out that these rank at the bottom of the top 20 and their refund rates have passed our "red line" danger mark. At this time we would NOT recommend them.

The overall average refund rate this month is 7.15%.

We have looked at the numbers of survey makers on the lists of paid survey sites as a possible qualifying factor, but have generally downplayed this number. The quality of the list is much more important than the shear number of names that are on it.

We now update our analyses twice a month, at which time we review and revise our picks. Paid survey companies change and market conditions change. Our selection of recommended companies is dynamic and will change as new information comes in. We always pick the current best choices for you!

We now have twenty-eight months of history posted on this website, with the numbers and the picks from December 5, 2006 all the way up to today. We invite you to look at the past numbers in Past Rankings for comparisons.

In general, you probably won't go wrong with any of the companies listed, especially those with refund rates below the average. For the 20 companies listed above the current refund average is 7.15% (means that on average, for the top 20 companies shown here, approximately 1 new member in every 14.0 asked for a refund for one reason or another). For the top five only 1 in 17.9 to 1 in 22.6 asked for a refund.

**Remember that the services offered by each and every one of the above companies are covered by an unconditional money-back guarantee backed up by ClickBank! **
