Paid Online Surveys - Get Paid to Take Online Surveys

You CAN make money with paid online surveys. IF you pick the right paid survey guide company, you really can get paid, and paid well, to take online surveys!

Online consumer opinion surveys are a big business. Every week there are thousands of surveys being taken, and every month, tens of thousands of survey takers are receiving checks in the mail for their participation.

A Question about Paid Online Surveys:   O.K. I understand that many people are making great money with paid online surveys, right? Then why is it so hard for some to even get paid to take online surveys or to make any money at all?   Answer: The reason is that to make any real money with paid online surveys you need to apply to the 20% or so of survey makers who actually pay in cash or equivalent and  avoid the rest, who will just waste your time! Those that do not make any money most probably used a "free list" and signed up only with some of the 80% low-pay/no pay survey makers! Of course they did not make money!!   Let us show you how to find and sign up with the 20% that PAY!!   [So who are we and why should you listen to us?

You see, big companies commission market researchers to make surveys and get the information they need. They pay well for this info. There is enough budget to pay participants too, and make legitimate paid online surveys. But many survey makers figure they can use smoke, mirrors and promises instead of cash and save money!

It's possible for them to get away with that because of the tremendous influx of new people on the Internet, looking for some way to get involved. The cheapskate survey makers pay recruitment commissions to anyone who can send these new people to them.

Promoters throw up websites, promise the moon, offer "free lists" of survey makers that you can sign up with for free, and "newbie" beginners fall into their traps. They sign up with scores of cheapskate survey makers and, of course, they make little or no money while the promoters get fat on the recruitment fees!

And the survey-taker participants spend several months of chasing that "carrot on a stick" before realizing that there is no way to catch it and make money. They have been had!

They were doomed from the get-go because there is no way to make any money with cheapscate survey makers! And, being new to the game, they did not even realize that there was a difference between one survey maker and another!

O.K. So let's say that you want to get involved with paid online surveys. But you are doing it for money and want to actually  get paid! 

So how do you find the survey makers that really pay? 

Here's the secret formula that works:

1. Beware of and avoid anyone trying to get you to sign up with their "free" list of survey makers.

2. Take your cues from the past clients of paid survey sites. Paid survey sites maintain lists of survey makers, keeping track of which are good, which pay well, which pay on time and which are good, on the rise, now. For a small one-time membership fee they will give you a copy of their list. You get your fee back with the first 2-3 surveys.

Your challenge is to pick a good paid survey site that can really help you get started. Some are good, some are bad and some are useless or worse. But we have a way to sort them out for you. Here's how it works:

A. Look for paid survey sites with a STRONG 60 to 90-day money-back guarantee, backed up by a bank or financial company like PayPal or ClickBank.

• The guarantee tells you that the site stands behind the value of their services. 
• The backing of the bank or financial company tells you that they are a responsible, reliable outfit and are not a scam. (A flaky or scam site could not get a strong financial backer!) 
• The strong guarantee also tells you that if worse comes to worst, you won't lose any money. 
• By finding these for you, we will have helped you pick the best and you can't lose! 

B. Insist on a low refund rate within that guarantee. The refund rate is the way that the past clients of that site will tell you the truth about their experiences there!

• A low refund rate means that the past clients were happy, felt that they got their money's worth. This means that they got paid to take online surveys, made money and were pleased with the results. (That's a group that you would be happy to be a member of, right?!)       
• A high refund rate means that many past clients were unhappy, felt gyped, let down, so they demanded their money back! (You don't want to be in this group!) 
• We can trust these past clients to tell us the truth of their experiences, not by what they say, but by how they act! 

So if you really want to get paid to take online surveys, look for a paid survey site that has both a strong money-back guarantee and a low refund rate, in the 3-6% range. Avoid any with refund rates that are either unknown (means high!) or are as high as 9% or more.
