Finding the paid survey sites is both easy and difficult to do. While you can certainly do a search for “paid surveys” or “online surveys” through Google or another search engine, the results you get back may not always be as helpful as you would hope. It’s likely that many of the results you get back are membership sites that require a payment to join. Otherwise, you need to go through hundreds of results to find all the good paid survey sites that you should be joining to be successful as a survey taker. While this works, it is a long and time consuming process.
In all honesty, the membership sites in most cases have done a very good job finding the relevant survey sites for you and they are worth considering if you want to get a fast start in getting paid to take surveys. If possible you may even find a free paid survey directory although these are getting harder and harder to locate.
Whether you decide to pay for membership to a survey directory or try to find a free survey directory or even take the time to locate all of the good survey sites yourself one thing is always going to be true. The majority of your earnings in paid surveys will come from a small set of the total survey companies. This has also been called the 80/20 rule which means that 80% of your survey earnings will come from just 20% of the survey companies you join.
While you might now wonder if you should avoid joining all the survey companies you can find I suggest you still register for all of them because you never know which are the 20% that are going to pay YOU. Different people will have different results with each company simply because each company is often looking for people with a different profile. Young people may do good with company A while older married folks will do best with company B and so on. You never know for sure which survey site will be best for you, so you need to join them all and find out for yourself.
To have the best chance to make money with paid surveys try to find a survey directory, free or paid, that will give you links to hundreds of paid survey sites you can register with. If this means you need to pay $30 to access a quality database of survey sites then so be it. You’re likely to make that money back within the first few days anyway as long as you take action after joining.
Paid surveys can be a great way to make some extra money, especially for those with lots of free times. If you could use some extra cash then I think it’s time you looked into paid surveys for making money online.
