Surveys: Guidelines to Paid Surveys and Survey Spot
Gibson Maseko
If you decide to join Paidsurveys.com, expect to receive up to 40 e-mails a day from a variety of online survey companies. Some of them are legitimate, others not. It will be up to you to figure out. A better way to decide which online survey companies you wish to participate in is to do a little legwork yourself.
One of the scariest things about this site is the offer to do "data work from home." Anyone with an IQ over 60 can smell this scam. It is the internet equivalent to "stuffing envelopes from home." It usually requires an upfront fee to "connect" the participant with people who are just dying to pay big bucks for someone to type all day into their computer. It's a scam and an old one, at that.
Other sites simply exist to get your information so they can sell it to telemarketers. If you are taking a survey and frequently directed to different websites where you are asked about receiving a quote for health insurance, do yourself a favor and click out immediately. In the month that I've been participating in online surveys, I have received (and I'm not exaggerating here) at least 10 calls from people who want to sell me health insurance. One afternoon I received two calls, fifteen minutes apart, from the same company. Unless you are really desperate to talk to people on the phone or get e-mail from strangers promising you riches, stay away from these type of sites.
Survey Spot
Not all surveys at Surveyspot.com offer payment. Some of them simply offer a sweepstakes entry. But you are under no obligation to do any survey in which you don't want to participate. Unlike some sites, survey offers are sent to you via e-mail. You are under no obligation to respond to the e-mail if the survey does not interest you and you will not be kicked off of the site.
If you find a survey that offers a cash reward, payment is immediate. Unlike many other online survey companies, you do not have to accumulate a certain dollar amount before receiving payment. The money is sent to you via check and generally arrives within four weeks after survey completion.
The surveys are fairly simple and generally take only 10 minutes to complete. The one drawback of this site is that you have to wait a few days to participate in surveys and you can only participate by responding to your e-mail. If you have a spam folder on your e-mail account, you may miss some e-mails, so it is wise to add the website to your general address book.
