Dear members? what the story about paid surveys & to be honest with you it sounds too go to be true?

A friend of mine has introduced me to the online paid survey world. but the thing is I am a little hesitated to pay money for someone that I have no background about money on the allegation that I will get paid for taking surveys, if any one has already gone through that path and can help I am all ears. Is it true that you will get paid for your opinion, is there legitimate sites, is the whole thing a reality?





Thanking you in advance.

Dear members? what the story about paid surveys %26amp; to be honest with you it sounds too go to be true?
One of my friends made only $55. He mostly got paid by referring people, spamming on MySpace and other sites, than by taking actual surveys. Afterward $190 was taken out of his c.c., apparently unbeknownst to him. Was it worth it? Obviously not.

yes I have tried them but it didn't work out for me.


I suggest that you take on board my cautionary words regarding on line jobs :-


Get onto a Search Engine eg. http://yahoo.com and type in the search text box (Note use double quotes) “is (such and such URL) a scam”. If you get some results, click on a few of them to see what people are saying about the business. If a lot of the comments are bad then it is a warning sign to stay away from that work at home site.


Remember


1. Some people are very petty, so you must consider the statements made before listing the company as bad.


2. Some do not read the fine print when signing up or do not fully understand the concept therefore when a problem arises they complain loud and long.


3. Many of these companies have hundred of thousands of clients but have only a few complaints.


4. Make considered judgements.





Always check on line jobs with these URLs and any other data bases of this type or Home Business forums before even considering any on line job:-


The first data base has the basic information that any prospective employee or entrepreneur should know

Lots of people have had success with these two URLs…..I believe it did not cost them anything to look. …. I wish you every success

They basically lie and tell you that you get paid '5 bucks a survey' when in fact 99% of survey companies pay you nothing. Most survey companies say 'fill out this survey and you will entered in a drawing to win XXX amount of money.' While these sites are legitimate, they simply wont pay you money the vast majority of the time. In theory, you could take hundreds of surveys a day, and win a drawing or two on occasion. But I wouldn't bet on it.





Also, most of the surveys are directed at certain people in certain age groups and you will not even be able to participate in most of them.





And on top of that - anyone who tries to charge you money for free information is supicious. I would not do this if I were you.
Reply:Honestly there are only a few I chose to use. Some actually do pay you but you are not going to get rich from them. It's good if you have downtime at work etc. I have seen some that only pay you a dollar, others $5. There are websites that use point systems then pay when you accumulate a few points. I made a personal yahoo webpage showing a few I use and why. I try to update as I find more, but just started it so only about 4 listed.

There are thousands of people making a pretty significant income from the Internet every day. Some people want to make just a little extra money online, while others want to turn it into a full-time career.Now obviously, the catch to it is that your earnings will depend--%26gt;entirely on your own efforts. But that's a pretty good trade-off in my opinion, especially for the beginner who is looking to just earn some extra money online. You may have some idea on how to make money online here,
Reply:Yes I belong to several legit sites that pay me for doing surveys. I have never given anyone money for this. The service should always be free to you.
