paid surveys 150x150 Paid Surveys   Can you make money?I’m sure you have all heard about people making money from Paid Surveys, but are they as good as they sound. They offer money for your time and opinion,  but can you really make some decent money? I’m here to tell you that you can, here’s how.

What to look for…

If you type “paid surveys” into Google you get millions of results, so how do you select a reputable survey company.

  1. Look for a list of reputable companies they are conducting surveys for e.g. Australia Post, ABS etc
  2. Read the “term and conditions” before signing up. They all offer it, not many people actually read it.
  3. Are they local? Australian surveys are much more profitable and honest.

Watch out for   “Con Jobs”

Not all paid surveys are what they seem, some tempt you with free money then make you fill out countless surveys for free before giving you the opportunity to complete paid surveys. Others make you sign up and never give you a survey because they have sold your information.

Can I sign up for more than one and how much can you make?

Before I wrote this article I signed up with over 15 different paid survey sites.  On average I got 3- 10 paid surveys a week from each individual survey site, therefore by having 15 I was getting around a 100 paid surveys a week. How much you make depends on the survey you are asked to fill out. The payout normally ranges from $5 - $50, doesn’t sound like much but it sure adds up. I found that I averaged about $90 - $120 a day, not bad. It doesn’t sound like much but they surveys only take around 5 - 15 mins to complete.

To make life easy I have done a list of those paid survey sites I recommend and made money from. Remember there is nothing stopping you from signing up to all of these (I did, it makes sense).
