    If you get an opportunity to do for Pinecone Research, don't pass it up.
    They payed $5 for product-based surveys that take 5 minutes when I did it.
    Not enough happening through them to make a living, but there was enough happening to cover my internet bill every month.
    Perhaps the coolest thing though, was occasionally having products mailed to me to try & review before they hit the market. :D

    Paid Online Surveys are a modern version of market research that has been around long before the internet. There are many schemes out there that have databases and contacts with vendors who want to get your opinion on new products or even on marketing materials to find out if the advertising would intice you to buy.
    Check out my signature for reviews of the top schemes.

    I have compiled a listing of the most reputable survey sites. There are a lot of survey scams on the net. All those listed here are legitimate - http://www.earncashforsurveys.com

    I have heard so many people say they make money from surveys, but I have yet to earn a dollar. Most people will direct you to their site or referral link and I think most of them are just trying to make money through affiliate programs. I spent weeks trying to make money through surveys before I knew about other ways to make money online. The survey sites all had a minimum cash out level that ranges from $10-$50, and all of them stopped e-mailing me surveys once I came near the cash-out level. So I basically took hundreds of surveys for nothing.

    I think what most people are talking about when they say they are "making money" from them is the money thats in their account, not that has been mailed to them. I have $100's owed to me trough dozens of sites that I have never seen. Besides, even if you do get paid, most $4 surveys will take about an hour of your time.

    There arent very many legit survey sites. Some of the best are NFO, Lightspeed, Global Test Market, and Pine Cone I have received checks from all these and so do several other people I personally know. I think they are mostly for people in US

    I tried them before. Took forever. Takes lots of minutes of your life to get these points. Also you need 5k something points or more for $1 and you get little points.

    Most real survey sites give you 1 cent per point. So a 200 point survey is 2 bucks. Global Test Market gives 5 cents per point. They even give you 5 points if you arent qualified for a certain survey. Most surveys I have done are about 1 to 3 dollars, but there have been quite a few that were 5 to 10, a couple that were over 20 and one I got 85 dollars for.

    Im telling you that if you arent making any money with paid surveys you have joined the wrong ones

    I joined global test market, which is a legit survey site 2 years ago but up to now I still haven't managed to earn enough for the minimum cashout.

    So on average you have paid out $3.50 per member. If I were you I wouldn't quote those figures when trying to attract new members.
