Paid Surveys & Market Research

This involves giving your own honest opinions on questionnaires, or more commonly referred to as surveys, and in most cases it is about companies' products or services. Companies are trying to get customer input, and they give you compensation thru survey programs. But finding legit survey jobs site is not as easy as pie. Before coming here, you may have found.....

-programs that charge for a list or database of nonexistent programs, or other programs that may charge you again
-Programs that pay as low as $0.20 per survey, and even less
-The ones promising "free computer" or "$100 gift card". Those are "offers", and are more appropriate for a "GPT" Site, which you will learn about as you continue reading.

So, in that case, I've hand picked not only Real survey programs, but the highest paying free survey programs. I've also included market research programs, also known as product evaluation, and they are generally the highest paying. Some send survey invitations to your email inbox, so I would recommend a seperate email address to ensure you don't miss any. But to maximize your income, you need to join anywhere from 5-10 programs. And do take advantage of their referral programs, it will leverage your income.


1. Panda Research


This is a survey and market research site, which allows you to earn money by taking surveys but mostly, evaluating products. I myself like to be paid to evaluate the products I buy, which puts me in quite some profits, and I can sell the physical products on EBay and maximize my profits even more. Heck, sometimes I even show off my personal reviews to my EBay customers. However, you want to start off with free surveys or products. Then later, build from there and start doing the trials and other paid products.

2. SurveyHead



This one hands out a high volume of survey assignments, unlike many others, but it doesn't send them to your inbox, therefore you may not need the second address.

-$5 signup bonus
-$3 profile completion



3. Vindale Research


Another highly respected survey site and product/service evaluation site. Again, you are paid to fill out a review of the product or service you choose. Again, Most of the products and services should be free, you want to start with those first. Then you can move on to the paid products.

4. Online Customer Survey

 

Another Market research program. I thought it was interesting, so I just decided to give it a try.


5. YourFreeSurveys


This one is actually a mix between surveys and market research evaluation, and you are given a signup bonus of $4, and an extra $1 for completing your membership profile. The referral program pays you $2 per referral.



6. Ipsos Survey Panel



-This one is not salary based, but I included it here because you can receive a number of surveys to your inbox everyday, and each survey is an entry for $5,000. That is: If you took 2 surveys a day, then you get 2 daily entries, but you will most likely receive more surveys than that.

GPT Sites

Get-Paid-To (GPT), or also known as "form-filling", is another popular money making opportunity, which does include surveys but also involves reading emails, completing offers (most are free), and sometimes playing games or shopping, but you receive compensation for each of these activities. I have hand picked the highest paying "GPT" Programs, and these are all free. Again, you must join different programs to make a sustainable income. And the referral programs again, will help you earn more money with less work. In order to get the fire started, you should go for the free offers and surveys first, and then later do the free trials. The free offers generally confirm the fastest. Once you get enough money from the free offers, then you can move on to the paid offers.


1. Send Earnings



I watched this one on Good Morning America when it showed. I decided to join, and now I make close to $100 every month, or about $3 a day, with it Alone. Anyhow, it is 100% FREE to Join, just like everything on this page.

2. Inbox Dollars



This one connects with WorldWinner, an undisputed champion in the online paid gaming world. If you want to play games while filling out forms and earn money for both, then this is fit for you.

 3. Cash Crate


I've been reading a lot about this site, and I even saw someone that has made $26,000 off of it. Don't try to copy them, though. Do it at your own pace. Anyhow, it is totally FREE to Join.

-20/10 Referral Program

4. Swagbucks



This is a paid to search program. Each time you search, you earn Swagbucks digital dollars that can be converted into real cash and other prizes. It displays results from Google and other top search engines. Think of it this way. Instead of searching on Google, search on Swagbucks!


5. Fusion Cash



One day, I was helping my mother look for data entry work and I showed her this. She decided to join it and she earned her first $100 within 2 hours. Like the rest, it's also free. You can cashout Paypal, check, or DD. The BBB Report pleased me, which made me go for this site.You can view this company's BBB Report here:

6. All Solutions Network


This one was made by Bruce Castro, and is one of the original GPT programs with which the whole concept started, but works the same way as the GPTs of today. Except that nothing here is any less than $1.00, and they have a lot more free offers and surveys than sites of today. Here, you are given a free, attractive turnkey homepage with which you or your visitors can complete the offers, and your referrals are given their own webpage too. I went for it because I liked the idea of having my own turnkey site. Just click on this short paragraph to see my site.




7. Treasure Trooper


This was the first GPT I knew. In addition to multiple offers, it has a cash clicks section, which allows you to maximize your income by clicking ads, just to add to your current earnings. Usually after every cash offer, just before your account is credited, you are also given a chance to play the pearl game, which allows you to win and collect pearls to use in the trading hut.

FreeLancing

I also do Freelancing Data Entry Jobs I mentioned Earlier, but the "data entry" work here is more than just typing into forms, and it is not as short. But it isn't that difficult, most of the data entry work you'll find is copy and paste. If you have Microsoft Office or Open Office.org on your computer, 1-2 hours daily, and can upload or email assignments by deadlines (the deadlines are not tight), then this may be more profitable than the ones above.

1) GetaFreeLancer


Jobs include Data Entry, SEO (plain Search engine Submission), copywritng, and lots of other cool projects. They even have an entry contest for $10,000.
