25 Bucks From Synovate - Global Opinion Panels

I like the points system of Synovate - Global Opinion Panels because even if you don't qualify for the survey, you still get to earn fifty points credit. Somehow this helps add up to your overall points. Surveys are not as much as others but they are a lot simpler to complete. I was able to redeem quite a number of checks already though not in bigger amounts but it still works for me.

Get Paid To Take Survey And Earn Money At Home

I read an interesting article titled "Get Paid To Take Survey And Earn Money At Home" written by Alan Lim which provides some very good reasons why one would want to take surveys in the first place. And for those who are in the verge of doing these surveys, the author of the article explains how to prepare yourself to make your survey experience worth while and fulfilling. I like to read it once in awhile until I fully absorb the essential points. Here I will give you my opinions and brief understanding on some of the very important items on "Get Paid To Take Survey And Earn Money At Home".

First off, I'd like to point out that the title does not do the article justice. After reading it, I discovered that a more appropriate title would be something like "Taking Surveys Helps Others" or "The Importance Of Taking Surveys". I'll let you decide.

The article describes how taking surveys contributes towards creating consumer awareness. Absolutely! Products don't think for themselves. In order for a product to excel in a competitive market, the product itself has to be efficient and likable for consumers to accept. How to companies know what to do? They probably have a general idea where to start, the rest are often taken from beta testing, polls and surveys before even thinking of releasing the product! That's where survey takers come in. By taking surveys, we (the consumers) have something to say, we give suggestions, comments, opinions and in some cases complaints about a product. Therefore giving the inventors some sort of criteria and a list of standards the consumers look for in a product. So you see, by taking surveys, we not only earn a bit from it, but we also are doing a public service!

Through the use of surveys we help organizations know their product better. To further expand on what I wrote earlier, we actually help by giving them concerns of things that they probably would have never discovered if it werent for these surveys. So surveys become a powerful tool when it comes to market research, they need us. Another important thing to point out is that through surveys, these organizations are hitting 2 birds with one stone. They not only get valuable feedback for a specific product, they also advertise it through the survey itself!

Again they need us, we are important to them. Although sometimes they don't show it. We are. It's funny how every time I read the article, I always feel that survey takers should be paid more what they are worth. But that is for another post.

Back to topic, after all of these surveys have been given out and taken the products come out to the general public, fine tuned and optimized to its best. In the end, we can be happy that we contributed to its progress and also, the nice check that comes in the mail for getting involved!

The final part of the article tells us to take all kinds of product and service surveys seriously. This can be highly justified after all that has been said. Do not think of it as a waste of time because it is intended for the progress and common good for all. So whether you are getting paid to take a survey or not, be honest, and treat it as an important thing. Their is a bigger picture to see in all this.

Neobux - PTC

I was sent a referral invitation for Neobux and Palmbux, pay to click sites. It's almost a month since I joined and so far I can assess the two sites based on comparison. So far I was told that these sites really pay.

Neobux is better in terms of click rates and the simplicity of the PTC ads. I like this site better than the other one. Palmbux isn't as simplified as Neobux. I don't like having to wait for another system to click after checking out the ads. It requires more time than Neobux but lesser click rate. Payout rate is just $2.00.

Joining these sites won't mean you'll get big money from doing PTC ads. It's just a few cent/s and it will take time before it becomes a dollar at least. The better way to earn from this is through referrals. If I don't have any works to handle I don't really mind doing the PTC even if the rate value is very small increment. In time without knowing it you'll have few bucks already.

Seeing Some Green from Greenfield Online!

I don't get to earn as much here compared to other sites because it is not easy to pre-qualify in surveys. But one thing I do like with this site is that they send me surveys continuously every day. I already received several checks, though in slow increments... its still something. It is good join the focus groups because that what really pays compared to surveys.

Casino Online

I know some blogger friends who enjoy playing online casino and what I know is that they also earn or win from those casino games. It has crossed my mind to venture on this and check the opportunity to play also during my spare time but I totally have no idea on how to play there. I have been focused with surveys and ptc since then because of my very limited time and now I am opening myself to other possible online opportunities that can fill up some spare time. Of course if I'm playing or doing something else I want to make sure I'm being productive too. But I won't get into those online casino deals until I learn how to play those or at least one game.

I checked on some online guides and came across Casino Advisor. This site helps players make informed decisions about the best licensed online casinos providing comprehensive views. Here you can find the latest casino games, news, views and reviews which can be helpful in finding the right game for you. Plus you can take advantage of free online casino tournaments before even getting to the deals.

Sounds too much of a gamble? They say gambling is fun but all to moderation. I am still 50-50 with this online gaming because I honestly don't like gambling but everytime I get to know how much my friends are enjoying and at the same time earning extra bucks I get somehow persuaded. My advice, think straight and don't get into something that you can't handle. This is just something to share for those people already inclined to this field and not to encourage risks to your finances. So be smart with your online choices =)

Golds For Cash

Have you ever heard of the gold investing? I always see it around the net but I am least informed about it. I don't really know the terms and trade where to buy gold coin or buy gold bullion and what exactly can I make out of it.

As we all know know gold is one of the most feasible investment all around the globe. We can easily buy it and also sell it when we need cash. They say including golds in stocks is a great investment but how do we exactly do that? Should we just buy bullion or purchase gold bullion and keep it or sell it? But one thing is for sure, we can definitely sell our gold online too. I saw numerous sites (be careful in choosing the legitimate and fraudulent sites) that buys your precious gold.

During this tight economic situation we have to think of ways how to survive andmake the most of everything. Oh don't get me wrong, I'm not encouraging you to sell away all your precious heirlooms but just to share some other means of getting some extra out of those things that you already have.

Extrabux?

I was browsing over other PTC sites and I came across Extrabux.com. I thought it's the same as neobux but I was surprised to see it's about shopping. I checked out the site and I'd like to share with you some findings about this site. I know this is about on-line survey opportunities but with this tight economy wouldn't you like to know about more money saving opportunity too?

When doing surveys we get to receive rewards and cash incentives, how about in online shopping? Isn't it sweet to shop in the comfort of your home, save gas and still get some cash back? I said it right, online shopping and getting some of your money back through cash back rebates.

This site is great because you can actually shop by store. All you need to do is to make sure to go to Extrabux.com and browse through the online stores of your choice. From there you'll be redirected to the store's online website and you can start your shopping spree. The best part is that for every store they have a corresponding cash back. What will you lose from buying then later on getting something back in return? You can also look for coupons available to find the best online shopping deals especially for your desired purchases. Sure this will be time consuming too but a more convenient way of comparison shopping since you can easily view products and stores just by clicking the mouse and browsing the net. Saves your feet from a day's worth of walking and shopping and the best part, getting some chunk of your hard earned dough back.

Global Opinion Panels-Synovate Pays

I got this check about 1 year ago from Synovate. By taking surveys, you can earn points which are then redeemable for cash. A proof that this survey site truly works is the attached check. You might not be impressed by the figures but you can get higher increments in the long run. They send good amount of survey invites and it's a win-win even if you don't qualify to proceed with the survey. You still get to have 50 points just by doing the pre-qualifying questions which are redeemable for cash. So your not really wasting your time with this one.

My First Survey Savvy Check

This is my first trail check for survey savvy. I was trying to give it a shot to see if this survey site is indeed legitimate, so I signed up for it. Later on I received survey invites and eventually earned some cash rewards. The survey invites are not as frequent as other sites but mostly easy to answer and gives out a good pay. After stacking up some cash, here comes the final test.... check redemption! It took more or less five to six weeks before the check arrived but I'm just so glad it did, check out the image for proof.

SurveySpot Tostitos Sample

I qualified for a survey with corresponding free sample to be shipped after finishing and processing the survey. It's indeed a nice one because I get to have this Tostitos Sample. SurveySpot's survey was about this product before it came out or same time it's being introduced to the market. If you pay close attention to the photos, you can see Tostitos Scoops and a matching queso salsa. The sample material is scoops and the salsa was just given to match the product. I'm not sharing or disclosing any specifics of the survey because it's prohibited. I just want to share this to justify the truth for those who are doubting if sample are really being delivered as said on those survey sites. I know this isn't much of a value but for me, this is something worth my effort already for that specific survey. Not only that I had a cash credit, I get to have a good freebie to complete it. A follow-up survey was necessary to assess the product sample they gave to me.

See what you might qualify for.. might be more than chips and dip! : SurveySpot

Surveyspot Review

SurveySpot has definitely got me hooked for the obvious reasons that it has really been paying off compared to other services. They have a user friendly website and offer a Spanish and French translated version of their site. I found a great review on Survey Spot that pretty much sums up what the company is all about and how you can use their service efficiently with some cool tips on how to make the most of it. The site is Online-Paid-Surveys, after reading the review you will have a better sense of what SurveySpot is all about. The same site also has a special page dedicated for SurveySpot User Reviews for those who have tried it out already! Feel free to participate and Happy Surveys!

Top Choice for Income In Free Sites to Earn Money Taking Online Surveys

Today, I will review a post titled "Get Paid to Take Surveys - Top Choice For Income in Free Sites to Earn Money Taking Online Surveys" by Alan Lim. Click here to read the full article. I honestly found the article to be quite optimistic from a point of view of someone who is actually doing surveys to some extra cash. Nevertheless, It does make an effort to discuss some of the basic advantages of earning money by taking online surveys.

The first 2 paragraphs in summary reveals that less is more. In some cases this is true. As with any work at home jobs, you don't spend for all the extra logistics it would require compared to if you were working in an office or in a similar circumstance. No worries on what to wear, gas, that lunch you would usually grab at the nearest deli or the amount of time wasted on commute. Yes indeed, you get to skip all that mumbo jumbo.

Job satisfaction? Well... it all depends on the person. Are you the type who is patient and love to express your opinions on products like the latest tech gadget soon to be released... or the latest menu item on your local burger joint? If so, then most likely you will find this job opportunity to be satisfying! Work when you want. Yes, you are your own boss but keep in mind that being your own boss could be somewhat of a challenge if you like to slack off (and don't pretend that you don't know what I'm talking about hahaha - you know exactly what I'm talking about). Discipline is key to this business.

There is no investment required for this opportunity. True. All you really need is a computer with an internet connection and you can be on your way to discovering what online surveys can do for you financially. You can take it as far as you like. Just remember to eat timely and sleep timely and I think you'll be alright. I hope you have enjoyed reading my take on the article!

Where Are The Best Free Online Survey Paying Sites

I came across this article while trying to look for more online survey opportunities that I have yet to discover and thought I'd share with you folks my opinions on it. The article can be found here. The author talks about how one does not need to spend money to make money. In most cases this is actually true! Though these opportunities do float around the internet, it can be quite a task to spot them. I suggest trying a few of the free ones first to see where you stand, before actually joining a legitimate service for a fee.

So where can you find these opportunities? The article reveals that one must search for forums whose topics are closely related to money making opportunities. If you have friends that participate in online surveys they may be one your best sources to getting off on the right foot. Trust goes a long way. For starters, I recommend some that my colleague and I have tried and tested and have actually earned quite a bit from. Click here for a list of these free online survey opportunities that can get you started on earning some extra cash. Need proof? Here are some sample checks that we have received!

Going back to the article, the author recommends contacting potential companies that may offer available surveys! The major plus side to this is that you get to choose companies that you are interested in. You will have gained more control over what type of businesses you decide to get affiliated with. Though this method may not provide the most opportunities, it does have potential to grow if you continue to take on more companies and start building a list of your own.

Some opportunities can be spawned from institutions of higher learning. They routinely conduct research projects. Look for bulletin boards! You never know what may be posted. I hope my review of the mentioned article in addition to the resources I have mentioned will prove valuable to those interested in free online survey opportunities! Have a great weekend everyone!

Discover The Most Popular Paying Online Surveys Right Here

Discover The Most Popular Paying Online Surveys Right Here
Photo Credit: hikingartist / CC BY 2.0
I read an article last week claiming that they discovered the most popular paying online survey sites. Now whether this is true or not, is a matter of trying it out yourself. The article gave us 2 sites, "Paid Surveys Etc." and "Make Money Taking Surveys". Make Money Taking Surveys is owned and operated by Lauren Mitchell and Paid Surveys Etc. by Michelle McAllister. Both were supposedly stay at home moms who later discovered the opportunity of making a living through survey taking. Eventually they made their own survey sites.

Interesting indeed. Scam? Or real? Both sites are running and look well maintained. That's all I can say at this point, and its like what I said, you have to try it to know it.

http://www.paidsurveysetc.com/

http://www.makemoneytakingsurveys.org/

Now, I have to admit that I myself have not tried the sites mentioned. Why? Well, honestly I am still in the phase of using sites where I don't have to pay a fee. The two sites above require a fee. Maybe one day I will try it. Being a mother myself, I am somewhat motivated after reading that those 2 work at home moms became successful with taking online surveys that pay. I will say that even by just sticking to free survey sites, I am earning some extra cash. So what more if I join the survey sites that have a fee for access to there resources and programs. Who knows? Maybe I could be making more! We'll see.

What caught my attention, was the article's claim that paid sites offer better customer service and that they don't give you garbage surveys that pay very little. Instead they give you high paying surveys. A tempting offer, but is it true? The only way to really find out is by reading and searching for lots and lots of reviews, or if you want a quick answer, I guess you have to cough up the extra cash and pay the fee to try it out and see if it is a true claim.

I will definitely write about it when I get to it. In the meantime, if anybody has an opinion, review or experience with the any of the 2 sites mentioned, please feel free to comment! Thanks!

Paid Online Surveys Questionnaires - The Best 4

I read an article supposedly written for Good Internet Money which enlist what may be the best 4 paid online surveys questionnaires out there. And to my excitement, I have to say that I have experience with 2 already.

The top 4 mentioned were:

  1. Survey Spot (I am happy with this!)
  2. Harris Poll Online (have not tried this yet.)
  3. ACOP (not too many offers)
  4. Global Test Market (this is a good one.)
As you can tell, I like Survey Spot and Global test Market the best. I cannot really say with Harris Poll Online as I have not been exposed to this until now. Maybe I will give it a shot.
