First you need to have realistic expectations. If you think you are going to make 5,000 every month just sitting in your chair filling sometimes pointless surveys, then you might be disappointed.
There is money to be made, you just need to find it. Several sites would pay you from $5 to $10 for a simple survey (or so they say) but that’s probably the only one they have available. Usually the company’s advertiser is only concentrated in one product at the time, so the only opinion they are willing to pay for is obviously the one about their product.
There is also websites who will also pay you for giving out your personal info, that they will later sell to other companies resulting in tons of junk emails. That’s why you never give the email you personally use, instead, create one at either Yahoo or Hotmail and use it just for that. Some people recommend to create about 5 different email and use a different one every offer, I will explain why later.
Very popular sites are out there who constantly add offers and surveys in the weekly bases. I found a site that lists and rates the best ones: (www.givethat.info), here you can choose from about 5 different companies that are pretty well known to some and new ones as they come up.
There is also “credit card offers” where you don’t really need a credit card, just a Visa or Mastercard gift card that you can purchase in almost any bank or mall. You could possibly make a good amount of profit doing those.
Tips to make profit without spending all day long looking for reliable sites
Choose a well know company, don’t trust those sites that come up on Google.
Create around five different email addresses that you will use when filling survey or completing an offer. You should alternate email addresses per offer because sometimes the advertiser would have a few paid surveys out at one time, and if you use the same email address for every survey, they might not pay you for some of them.
Clear your Cookies(Internet Explorer:Tools/Internet Options/Delete Cookies. Firefox: Tools/Clear Private Data/Check “Cookies”/click on “Clear Private Data”.) This will delete any info that might had been saved when completing an offer or survey.
Buy a Visa or MC gift card. If you buy a card with $20 in it, you could use it to complete offers that cost $1, but pays you $20. This would be the easiest way to make money without spending hours of your time.
Find fresh sites and companies. Stay away from Google; all you will ever find is people selling you crap that you don’t need. The best way is to join popular forums about this subject, so you get an individual’s opinion instead of an advertiser’s.I hope this helps you getting the info that you need and a more realistic goal. You can expect to get anywhere from $300 to 800 working a few hours a week.
