Learn How to make Money with Online Surveys.

Are you looking to make some extra money? Yes, you can really make a few extra dollars with taking FREE Online Surveys. I Have. I have received paypal payments, checks in the mail, and free products to try. However, you will not get rich quick, be able to retire or quit your day job. But you CAN make some extra money for your time and opinion taking surveys.

Here you will find a FREE list of my favorite online survey sites, a bit of helpful information on each site, how to get started, and some helpful hints and tips. I have spent hours on the internet researching different online survey websites, reviews of them and I have taken the surveys myself. Let some of my hard work pay off for you. I, too have been there, trying to make some extra money and not sure where to start. Been frustrated over survey sites that don't pay for surveys. Are scams, or that were only for entries into drawings, to sites that were basically "Get Paid To" sites requiring a credit card and so forth. I generally do not like the get paid to sites. They often times require a credit card for participation. I will not list a site here if it charges for participation or in any way requires you to pay. A legitimate survey company will never ask you for money.

Ok, by now you probably have a few questions:

So you ask, what is a survey?
Surveys are a widely used method for companies seeking consumer information. They will pay a survey company to compile statistics and for market research, usually in the form of a questionnaire. And in turn, the survey company pays you the consumer for your time and input. That simple. Also, some companies do offer focus groups and product testing.

How does one get started taking surveys?
Pretty simple in fact. Just sign up with the survey companies listed here. You'll fill out a registration form on the Survey Company website. On some sites you'll also fill out a personal or member profile. When they have a survey that fits you they will send an email to you with the details of a survey they have. The email usually has the length of time of the survey, a link to the actual survey and compensation details. Also, some of the sites you will want to log into daily to check for surveys.

How will I get compensated?
Depends on the company and their individual policy. Some have points you redeem for cash, some pay by check or pay pal. Also, some companies require a minimum pay out and others pay by survey. I will not list if it is a drawing or prize only website.

How many surveys will I receive?
Demographics do play a part in how many survey invitations you receive, but generally a few a month from each company. Don't get discouraged if you don't receive any surveys right away. The more sites you sign up with, the more online surveys you will receive.

How do I get started?
Easy, just go to the free list of the legitimate Survey companies below and start signing up now with as many survey companies as you can. Be sure to read my Helpful Hints section as well.
