Surveys For Cash—Truth Or Scam?
July 18th, 2008
Everyone you know nowadays is talking about making money through online cash paid surveys. Taking surveys for cash is actually becoming one of the most popular methods of making money on the Internet. While some people will tell you that you will be able to earn tens of thousands of dollars every month through cash paid surveys, others will tell you that the whole thing is a big scam. In such a situation, it is actually tough to know whom to believe.
Let us tackle first things first. And the first thing is that yes, paid surveys do exist, there are companies that will pay you hard cash if you fill out online survey forms sent by them and you can actually make a considerable amount of money by taking surveys for cash. However, the question here remains. Can you actually earn $30,000 and above simply by filling out survey forms?
The true and real answer to this is a big and real NO. I am not saying that there is no one in the whole world who is not earning $30,000 and above a month simply by taking surveys. Maybe there is. And maybe he or she is the only one out there who is actually making this kind of money simply through taking online surveys. In most cases, sites advertising such outrageous survey incomes are scams and you would do well by keeping away from them.
Talking about the rule here, rather than the exception, then the point to keep in mind is that your amount of earnings will be based on the amount of time and effort you put into your survey job. If you spend three to four hours a day completing surveys every day, then you should be able to make somewhere between $ 1500 to $ 3000 at the end of the month. Most people who earn regularly through surveys earn anywhere between $750 and $1500 if they spend only an hour or two on taking surveys.
Generally companies pay you for every survey that you take based on the amount of time that the survey takes and the company sponsoring it. On an average, you can earn $3 to $10 for a half and hour survey. Average this figure out to $5 per survey and you will be able to make $10 every day and reach a target of three thousand dollars a month.
The key to maximizing your survey cash is to take as many surveys as possible and send them back as soon as you get them. In order to get the maximum number of surveys, you will have to sign up with a number of survey sites. Sign up with as many survey sites as you can because most sites will not charge you anything fro either signing up or registration.
In the beginning especially, sign up only with sites that send you surveys for free. If you actually start liking your survey job, then you can sign up with a few paid survey sites as well because some of these sites actually have a lot of surveys which are not accessible to free survey sites.
