Has anyone on here ever did any paid surveys on the internet as an online job? I was wondering which sites are best to go to, and also how much a day did you make doing these surveys? I want to be able to get on a site that will pay me a good amount for my opioion. Please post a response, im planning on trying to start doing them as soon as i find a site that will acutally pay.

per mylot rules we are not allowed to place any links in responses or even in our discussion topics. I just added you as a friend and I can share at least one site that I know you could earn with. I am not sure you would be able to live off the income but to me every little bit helps us right? Take care and happy mylotting to you.

Hello, I thought you could leave links as long as they're not self-promotional (i.e., no affiliate links or links to your own blogs)? Or have the rules changed?

You can name sites you can not do any spamming. I have listed survey and mystery shopping sites. If you couldn't there would be no earning money interests on here. You are correct browneyed and the rules haven't changed.

I will give you a list that are real survey sites and not the ones that want you to do iffers and things like that. All of the ones I list are paying and legitimate! I do not make a huge amount of money but I can pay some small bills with them! You have to give honest opinions to really make money from them! 1. Survey Spot 2. Lightspeed Panel (My favorite, can make lots with this one!) 3. Opinion Outppost (Okay one, not my favorite!) 4. Pinecone Research (Hard to get into, but worth it if you can!) 5. Survey Savvy 6. My Survey All of them I listed are ones I am a part of and always get surveys from them!

I do all of these and I agree there's a small payout. At least, they're not scams. I'll add to this list Global Test Market. I just got a check for $80 from them. It took awhile to earn, but what the hey...

Well i am still doing paid surveys and trying to earn money from them but its not a lot of money, there are a few sites maybe based on your location you may get more surveys to answer hence that translated ot more money.. i have been a member of Palmresearch and ciao surveys.. they are very slow to earn with but good way to earn.. even global test market is good but the amount of surveys are very small..

I'm a big fan of Mindfield Online,Opinion OutPost, and Pine Cone Research because they pay cash only and you dont have to enter in any stupid sweeptakes. You really get paid for your time. For more opportunities, you could check out the survey ploice website to identify scams and legit opportunities.

I tried all the surveys sites I found. I don't have payment yet. As soon as I reach the minimum amount it turns up to be a scam. There are sites which give one survey per month or two so it's not worthed. I advice you to leave that kind of stuff because you'll waste your time.

Iamamommy, if you really want to replace your day job with an online job try affiliate programs (http://interworlddon.com/Affiliates.aspx). You can make some good money with paid surveys (http://interworlddon.com/PaidSurveys.aspx) but I don't think that they will make you rich. In my opinion if you spend the same amount of time that you would spend answering questions of a paid survey, you will make much more money. However, success in affiliate programs depends on your skills, especially the ability to communicate in written English. The choice is yours.

I am actually a member of paid survey head. It actually just emails you whenever there are new paid surveys available for you. So far, I haven't received a payout yet, as I am just new to this site. But hopefully, I can earn something out of it.

I've tried with local on-line agency for paid surveys and still haven't reached the minimum payout but I've heard a lot of people get no money at all...

I have been doing online surveys and yes you can make money just not a lot. You have to be patient because you are not always going to qualify. There are quite a few that give you $5.00 just for signing up. I am going to name a few that I have had succes with. Also once you start you will start getting links and other survey offers emailed directly to you. The ones I am mentioning are ligit and I have been paid. Look for the ones where you can get paid by pay pal that is a sign they are ligit. Lightspeed surveyhead Zoom Panel Harris Poll Unique Rewards surveyspot Another thing you can look into is Focus Groups which pay you for trying out products. Type in focus groups in your search engine and then you can sign up. They tell you what it is and how much you will be paid. Next you answer their questions and they will call you if you meet the quota. I haven't done one yet but I did get asked a couple of times. They only need a certain amount of people and you don't know how many they need. I have had friends do it and it worked out.

I'm doing them, I've got money from one and vouchers from two. They're Norwegian so probably not of much interest to many people here. If you're in the US there's quite a few I think, but I imagine it can be quite difficult to get it a reliable income from it as you'll never know how many surveys they send you.

My husband and I have been doing surveys through SurveyHead and have made some $250 last year from them. One thing is it takes a while to receive credit, it will appear pending for 4 weeks.
