What is the deal with Get Paid To sites? ie Paid to Read, Click or Survey.?

I have seen several GPT sites (Get Paid To) lately. GPT Read, GPT Click, GPT Survey. If they actually come thru and pay you is it all legit?


Has anyone had any luck with these sites??


What about taxes?? They do not give 1099s.

What is the deal with Get Paid To sites? ie Paid to Read, Click or Survey.?
If they are legit and US based, they must ask for your social security number when you sign up because by law, yes, they must send out 1099. However, if you don't make enough to generate the 1099, then you are not going to get one.





Which brings me to another thought... when I sit here and read all these answers of people who have two-three-four different affiliate company links on them as recomendations, that makes me wonder.... if that person is making so much money, why do they have to join so many affiliates? And then - how on earth does that person have that much time to spend going from one program to another trying to make that money? One thing to think about also.... when you join, they receive benefit... that's pretty standard.





I recently wrote a blog, the link can be found in the second paragraph of my profile here... giving advice for people wanting to create additional income from home.... It's not a sales pitch and is all generic information. Before you go spend countless hours reading, clicking, for $.085-$20, you might want to read it as food for thought.





Been there... done most all of it.

Reply:Anything that says you can get paid for not busting your butt is a scam.





They are pyramid schemes. If you ever do make money, it will be by getting another sucker to join in the scam.





They all want you to give something first. Would you work at McDonald's if they asked you to make a deposit with them to cover your training costs?





Well, that is what these sites do, and they aren't openly traded and you don't know where the headquarters is located.





Scams, all of them.


Easy solutions are almost always lies; in business, beliefs, relationships, everything.
Reply:Some of them are scam and some really pays you. You can make difference by checking that what those sites pay you for 1 click and what they charge advertisers for 1 click. If they promise to pay you more than what they charge their advertiser, then they are scam. I am listing here some of good sites and some scams.

Taxes are paid by individuals.
Reply:I have searched the web for the last 4 yrs for the same kind of sites. Havent found one that is truly legit. Be careful.... usually you have to sign up for other sites in order to get paid for the site you are on. Causes LOTS of junk mail...... beware and good luck :)
Reply:They are B.S. I signed up with one of them and it took me 7 months to earn $10. I get paid $.01 to see an ad. You make way less than the fry guy at McDonalds. I bet he would be laughing at me if he knew me.





You're better off just getting a part-time job somewhere instead of messing with these Get Paid Sites.
Reply:They are scams.


You get paid to do X, but you need to spend money to get the "assignment."


I tried one. Total scam.





Google the GPT with the word complaint at the end, and have fun reading.
Reply:There are several survey sites that are legit, your not going to get rich doing them though. Do not give anyone your SSN there are lots of sites out there that are legit and they do not need this info from you. Nor do you have to pay to join. I am a member of several. The one I have had the most luck with is Lightspeed. They do not pay you cash you get points which can be converted into cash via pay pal. However, they send me the most surveys. And already twice now I have been asked to participate in a more extensive survey in which I was sent a palm pilot in the mail and asked to record certain daily activities. The ones I have completed offered a $50 incentive and that was in the form of a check in addition to the points I received for completing the initial survey. I have also done survey savy which has a great referral program if you know people who will join you get money for surveys they complete. I have also tried American Consumer Opinion. They pay by check in mail for all surveys, but I have not been able to complete many of their surveys. I did a lot of research before joining these. You also need to be a regular email checker because if you don't respond to the survey fast enough they have met their quota. I am pleased with these sites and looking to join some new ones.





Most pay a few dollars per survey completed so it is best to use several. If you would like to give me a referral credit use the link in my profile for survey savvy and the other websites are listed there as well. Good luck!
