I'm sure there are a number of people here who are doing online surveys. I was searching the net for online survey site for a little extra money on the side. However, some of these sites look like I will just ended up getting my inbox spammed. I just would like to know what kind of online surveys people on mylot are using, how they like them and if they are happy with the pay out.

I tried out multiple Survey sites before, but 98% of them might be just profitting from your efforts. I never got paid out, not even got "Points to trade in for fantastic rewards, or even PAYPAL MONEYYYY!!!!111!1!!!1!" . If ANYONE finds a survey site that does work in Europe, I'd greatly appericiate it, but all the survey sites are most likeley US-only. Just don't believe them :(

I don't think that the survey sites work in US since I'm in the US and I haven't found one. It is either you get a thank you for filling out the survey and they give you some points which you can never figure out how they work or they spam your inbox. You sign up to do one survey and the next morning you have 100 emails and since you don't want to change your email address you spend part of the morning marking the emails as spam or unsubscribe from their mailing list.

ella go to mysurveycom as they pay ten dollars for every thousand points and you will do a ton of surveys in a few weeks, they are really interesting and are about different new products that will come out some day. I have made at least ten to twenty dollars every month and am never turned down like in other surveys where they refuse to let you qualify. I really have been with mysurvey.com for years and always made some money and they pay by check and never fail you either.

I been trying to find some sites to make a little extra money as well. I haven't had any luck. I do some surveys but no luck with them and it's hard to make payout and i'm not even sure if you would actually get the money or not. So I'm sticking with mylot and hoping to reach my payout and I know they actually do give you the money in the end...

Thank you for your response. You are the third who hasn't had much luck with the online surveys. I have done some surveys at the local college and they pay between 5-25 dollars per survey. Maybe the only way to make make with surveys is to do them local. Years ago while the economy was better some of the market surveys I did in college actually paid $100.00 in case. It was really strange the first time I done one of them since they didn't say how much they would pay. I ended up in a room with a bunch of people and they wanted me to talk about the product in front of for an hour. So I did, when I left the girl at the front desk gave me a sealed envelope and in it was $100.00. That market research company is no longer around. I guess they ended up paying to much for their research.

hi ellaprice76 its mysurvey.com for me as the surveys are so much fun and the points quickly add up so for every thousand points you just won ten dollars. also what is so great about mysurvey.com is they pay in by check, and also they never refuse to qualify you for their surveys. I have always been accepted and sometimes they will give you ten points then they ask if you want to continue on a longer survey that will give you fifty points. You do not not get turned down but are always accepted and the surveys often show new products and you are asked your opinions on them. its really a lot of fun and you can make money there. some months I have made twenty dollars but always at least ten. added to mylot it is really helpful to me.
