Undoubtedly, once you put your email address out there as looking for these sites, you will be bombarded with sites that offer $50-$75 for taking one 30 minute
survey. Does that seem to good to be true? Some of these sites, undoubtedly will be scams and there are many sites that require a fee to join. The way these
paid survey websites usually work is that you pay a small fee to be a member of their site, which gives you access to their vast data base of legitimate companies that are offering large payouts for trying products, and for voicing your opinion on a variety of issues. I must admit, that I have no personal knowledge of these sites, as I have my own data base of free sites, that suit my purpose, which is to just supplement my income. For more information on sites that charge a reasonable fee but also offer a much larger pay out for your time, click on this link, and see the paid survey websites that have been reviewed by StarReviews and listed as top in the class.
I would like to caution you about some of the other
paid survey sites that are not mentioned on StarReviews. There are many companies out there, that will charge a fee, usually a large one, for is a list of "
survey sites" that are really just "phishing" sites. With some of the other sites, you can end up in an endless, and very frustrating loop of yes and no questions, which is just another way of soliciting information from you, without your knowledge. The above link will direct you to sites that deliver what they promise.
I recently was invited to join
Hits4Pay. I am just starting to work with this site, and have not formed an opinion on the site, as of yet. The way it works is like so many of the other sites, they give you a signing bonus, in this case it is $10. This helps out as you will need to have $25 in your account in order to cash out. A very nice feature is that they automatically zero out any account that has $25 or more in it on the first of each month and your commission will be paid to you by the 15th.To get started, once you have joined of course, you log in to your internal mailbox, and read through the ads that have been sent to you. You will be credited 2-3 cents per ad that you read. You must stay on the site for 30 seconds, and wait to be credited before you go to the next ad.
Don't let any of this discourage you, use this information to save you time. There are
paid survey websites that really pay out there, you just have to watch out for the scams, the phishing ones and of course the ones that have you pay them, so that they can give you the info that is actually out there for free! Just as an aside, remember there are sites that you pay for, that do give you very valuable links, which you would not be able to get for free. There is something for everyone, and the key is to determine, what you want to get out of the options there are.
