Six Things You Should Know About Paid Surveys
1) It pays to apply the “grain of salt” attitude. Just as anything in life, not everything is as it seems, and that goes doubly for online offers. If you come upon a site that offers $100 for every survey you complete, with an unlimited earning potential, you should probably translate that into “we want anyone and everyone to try our service.” Whereas the legitimate sites offer a more believable line, as well as less of a push to get you to try their service. It doesn’t hurt to question every site you come upon—trust me, there is no shortage of survey sites and there will be others available for you to try. If your gut instinct is telling you that a site is illegitimate, then waste no time in scramming. The more you look, the better your chances of discovering a site that pays exactly what they offer.
2) Think Smaller. Mercedes Benz and caviar? Well, not exactly. Think smaller. For instance, a good number to remember is five: usually, a respectable rate to get paid for completing surveys is about five dollars an hour. Here’s what those numbers look like: 15 hours a week equals $75 weekly and $3900 annually. So if you can dedicate fifteen hours a week to completing surveys, then you can expect almost $4000 of extra income a year. That may not get you a condo in the Bahamas, but it certainly can go a long way in any number of things: shopping, traveling, home repair, etc.
3) Don’t have an extra email account? Now’s the time. One of the best ways to safeguard yourself as you search for the best survey sites is having an extra email account. Consider it your spam mail account: every time you sign up for a new survey site, use your spam mail address instead of your main address. That way, you’re both keeping your main email account clean and uncluttered, and keeping it from being compromised by any illegitimate survey sites that may be out there.
4) Don’t have a P.O. box? Now’s the time. If you are seriously considering making extra money by getting paid to take online surveys, then investing in a P.O. box may be exactly what you need. Just as having a spam email account is crucial, keeping your actual home address secure is just as important. That way, with each sign up you can be sure that you aren’t giving away personal information that you need to keep confidential.
5) At first, more is better. When you first start the process of completing surveys for pay, it’s important that you don’t skip too many offers. Consider this time your introductory period: the more surveys that you complete, the more you prove that you are serious. In other words, the more surveys you tackle, the more that will be sent your way—but the less you complete, the fewer that will show up in your inbox.
6) Is money good? Yes it is! Then don’t be timid in taking advantage of making extra money online—if you have spare time, then fill it with wisely with thses moneymaking opportunities. Take these tips into consideration, and have a blast!
