subject: The Key To 'making It' With Paid Online Surveys [print this page] So many people are going online these days to try to earn some extra cash. If you're one of those people, then you've probably heard about taking paid online surveys for cash a time or two. You might have asked yourself, "Can I really make money by taking surveys and participating in focus groups. The answer is simply: Yes. However, most people who try will never earn a single red cent, and there is a good reason for that.
I've been making extra money online for about seven years now. In fact, the first money I ever made online was from taking cash surveys. I got lucky and found a good cash survey site to start with, but this one site was not enough to keep my busy with survey opportunities. To make things worse, I did not qualify for many of the surveys and focus groups that became available. In spite of that, I still made some easy cash with this first site.
What I Learned From My First Attempt
I realized that I would have to find many more legitimate cash survey sites like the first one, if I wanted to make a steady extra income with surveys and focus groups. Doing so proved to be quite a bit more difficult than I had first expected. Sure there are millions of survey sites out there, but they don't all pay cash. The gems are buried by the duds.
Most consumer research sites don't pay cash for surveys. Instead they "reward" you with coupons, contest entries, gift cards, etc... Nothing of real value is ever rewarded from sites like these; however, these are the sites that are the easiest to find. These are the kind of sites that push the legitimate sites to the bottom of the pile. Not only are they worthless as a viable income source, some are nothing but sales pitches with nothing being rewarded to you for completing surveys.
I Found An Easier Way
Finding lots of good cash survey sites is the hardest part of making money with paid online surveys, which is why most successful survey takers have opted to buy a list or database of cash survey sites. The only way to make good money from surveys and focus groups is to find lots of legitimate consumer sites, and then complete your full member profile at each site.
Lots of people make money with online survey sites today, including myself and several of my friends. Everyone that I know that makes extra money from surveys and focus groups has this in common: They all are members (with completed profiles) at a long list of legitimate consumer research sites.
The reason this works is because belonging to lots of legitimate survey sites means you will receive lots of survey and focus group offers. Remember: You may not qualify for many of the offers you receive; so the more you get, the better your chances of making money. This, of course, takes some time to set up right, but the the payoff is worth the upfront legwork.
My Final Thoughts
Sites where cash is paid for surveys and focus groups do exist. They are just hard to find. Remember: The key is finding a lot of legitimate paid market research sites, and setting up your profile at as many of them as possible. You probably will not retire from taking surveys, but many people just like yourself earn an extra income or better from the real cash surveys sites.
