What are the best online paying surveys sites and are reliable and not spam?

I want websites that are free to register, have a average pay, and is easy to use.

I forgot to put one more thing that is also payout using paypal. Like they give you money and you can transfer it to paypal.

Survey's are not what you think. They require a lot of time, and you won't make what they claim you will. A couple of my friends did a six month test on several different survey sites like Survey Savvy, Harris Poll, Greenfield, Opinion Outpost, Survey Sport, Buzzback, NPD online, Lightspeed Panel, African American, Your2Cents, Project Payday, Inboxdollar, SnapDollars,Send Earnings, Creation, mycoke rewards, E-poll etc. Each did some the same sites and some different sites. Totaling at least 15 - 20 a piece. They're not what people say they are. Yes they are easy to do and you can receive money and prizes, compensating you for your time and effort. So they're not a scam. They're very time consuming though. When you add the time together, It's more time then you think! If you do decide to get into surveying, you better plan on spending 8 to 10 hours a day and make minimum wage. Sometimes you will hit good surveys that will pay you a lot, but what's required to get that is amount, the calculations of the time involved, and what you got paid in these "higher" paying surveys, still only averages out to minimum wage. It's a psychological thing because the time is spread out on these, so it doesn't seem to be as long as it really is. But we did the documentation's and figured the time vs money factor. We found that there was more time with little money to be made.
Here's how the survey's work. You spend approximately 10 to 15 minutes per each site to register and set up a profile to qualify for surveys. (this is non paid). To make anything really work, you need to register for at least 14 different ones, and make sure non are related to each other. Then you'll start receiving emails for surveys. Each survey you have to complete a 15 to 20 minute "pre-qualifying" survey, after you were already told you qualified based on your profile (you don't get paid for this) Then if you do qualify for a survey (which majority of the ones you don't qualify for. so you've wasted this 15 to 20 minutes and sometimes longer of non paid time.) Then if you don't qualify for one, they offer another and you have to do the same thing, and the same thing happens.) You waste approximately 45 minutes to an hour until you finally qualify for a survey. You take a 30 to 45 minute survey and make normally $1 to $3 a survey that they claim takes 15 minutes. Or instead of money, you earn "points" which later on can be exchanged for money or prizes. You have to earn enough points to make $10. That's not including the 15 minute pre qualifying survey, that you had to repeatedly do prior to land this survey. So you've now spent thirty minutes to an hour and made $3 or a few points. And the process between each of the survey sites is the same. So you can pretty much do the math. It averages out to be between $2 to $6 an hour. Sometimes you do come across a survey that will pay you $25 to $75 a survey, BUT there's A LOT more to it then what meets the eye on that as well.
Here's how the larger pay out survey's work. It could be a telephone survey or a Internet survey. You get the pre qualifying part of 10 to 20 minutes then if you qualify for it another 15 to 30 minute survey or a telephone survey about the product your about to try to see if you qualify to try it. Even though you took a 10 to 20 minute "pre qualifying survey" that said you qualify for. When you qualify for it, they send you a product out to try for 7 to 10 days and you do some daily documentation's on it. Depending on what the product is and the documentation's it's usually 5 - 15 minutes each daily documentation. (you got a free product to use around the house, this is a good part of it) after trying the product out you have to complete another survey that takes between 15 to 30 minutes to do. Now you do the calculations on that. You don't get as many of these types of survey's. They use the hype on getting paid $25 to $75 dollars for 15 minute surveys. NOTICE THE PLURAL IN "SURVEYS" What they don't tell you is that there is more then one survey involved in these. Now calculate from your pre-qualifying survey to the next pre-qualifying survey from the company carrying the product, to the trial and documentation's, to the last survey on these products. Then you receive a check four weeks to six weeks later. Do the math, that's less then minimum wage!
Another way to earn money on survey sites, is to refer people over to the sites. Some survey sites will give you a percentage on what the people do after they've reached a curtain amount of points or obtained their first check (refer back to the top of what's involved) You either get a lot of points for this, and only one time and when you reach a curtain amount of points you can exchange it for cash or prizes. (Cash amount is usually $30 before you can cash out- do the math on how many pre-qualifying surveys and the surveys you get, the time involved etc this is what it takes to earn the $30) Other survey sites you complete shorter surveys (5 to 15 minutes) and your entered into sweepstakes or lottery things for prizes or money. "Lottery"-one winner out of all the people doing survey's. If you don't win, you lose your points.
Okay, I'm starting to write a book. I can go on about all the other types of survey's available and what was
involved in that if you'd like me to elaborate on it.
I do survey's because it does help the marketing on different products and they do use the opinions of what things look like and what not. So I do it for the principle of the matter. Don't do it for money, because you won't make a sufficient amount of money with this.
You really have to register for a lot of different sites. The paid survey sites offer the same survey's as the non paying ones. You get the same type of prizes and some pay a little more money. Again calculation time. Calculate how much you "paid" into these sites and the time you put into it, (refer back to how the survey's work) and it calculates back to minimum wage. If your doing this to make a living off of, you will be disappointed. But just for some extra cash, it's a good source and like I said, the companies do document the feedback and use it to better advertise their products and in some cases come out with new products based on the input of the surveyors.
If you want to work from home, (assuming this is why you want to do survey's) There are a lot of different things you can do from home. You have a few options to look into. a home job which pays minimum wage. But understand that after taxes your looking at your take home as below minimum wage. If this is sufficient amount of income, here's a couple websites that you can take a look at and apply for the job. I can't guarantee that you will receive the job. but you can apply for it.

www.apply.westathome.com/

Your other option, based on experience is the best option is to look into having a home based business in an industry that you like. You have the same income opportunity as a traditional business, without all the over head expenses. Most home based businesses cost under $500 to start. A huge income opportunity for you there working from home. I created a blog on my 360 yahoo page on home based business opportunities. Over half a dozen different ones to choose from in several different industries. Also a lot of information on scams, what to look for the BBB, and a few other things you should be educated on.

Hi,

I found a site called SideMoney.org which has a few of the more legitimate sites listed on its page along with a bit of a tiny review for each as well.

These paid surveys pay in paypal and i trust them as ive been using them for many years. Once you earn enough paypal you just transfer it to your account. They are free and you should never pay for paid surveys as you can see there are many free ones http://www.techagesite.com/Surveys%20page1.htm

Unfortunately most of the opportunities you will find from some people, does only good to those people and nothing to you, maybe does bad to you if you paid something, which i do recommend not to do if you are not sure !

There aren't any that i have ever found.they all claim to have huge payouts and don't the free ones that claim 150 a day your lucky to make 1.50 a week! The ones you pay 39.95 and 49.95 claim hundreds a day?you'll make 5 to 10 MAYBE!!Good luck in your search,but BE CAREFUL!!!Most online claims in ads are scams,Rebate processors $ example really Sucks!!Sincerly,Aldo D.

Although many of the survey sites are scams, their are still plenty of them that are legit.
Never join any sites that require a sign up fee as they are almost always scams.

I have been taking paid surveys for nearly a year now, it takes me around 10 minutes every second day, and I make about $80 - $100 a month which isn't bad for the amount of time it takes me.
My favourite sites are: Nielson Net Ratings, NPD, Ipsos and Cashcrate.

Check out this site I found which have reviews for each of the sites and more info on them:
http://topsurveysites.org/

Here is the site that use to make some extra cash filling out surveys.

However you should try focus groups if you get a chance. It may take you a half hour or so to do them but they pay out big time. I have got up to $150 an hour from them!

The site I visit is http://www.funpaidonlinesurveys.com . They have quite a few offers posted on there that will actually pay you. There are also quite a few surveys that you can fill out for gifts as well.

Have Fun :)

Paid survey site:

good luck!

I haven't been doing surveys for very long but, I have read several site's -- (Annika's is a good one for information) -- about them.

It seems that the biggest money is from referrals ... people use a link you provide to sign up, they get paid, you get registered for surveys.

The sites I've read that review surveys make it pretty clear that you've got to be on several survey sites ... by the time you do that, and spend your time answering the surveys, it gets time-consuming. But, if you have the time, have internet hookup, and want to earn some money sitting in your jammies, why not!

Read the Terms and Conditions at each site ... see how they pay -- points, sweepstakes, money, paypal, check, etc. -- and what your responsibilities are. Some of them can be strict.

Some of them are only for certain countries -- you gotta do your homework!

I'm on 6 survey sites. In the last 2-1/2 months, I've earned a $3 check, gotten a meal-sized box of food to test and review, and a sack of dog food to test and review (cash value, probably $20 in 2-1/2 months). -- I ain't getting rich or even making a living. Then, again, the reliable survey sites won't make any such promises ... they'll tell you that the "pay" is (I forget the exact wording, but it means) kinda like a tip you'd leave at a restaurant.

But, if you get on a site and have enough links to it that others click-through and sign up for the survey, then I can see how you'd make a lot more.

Check out Annika's (you do not have to join MSN groups to read and click-through on the information). I don't know her. I've just read on her site, and she seems to be pretty straight-forward. And, like many of us, she sees no need for someone to pay for free information and reviews on survey and other "paid to" sites!

Good luck and have fun!

I am a stay at home mom with 2 small kids and live with jobless husband. I have registered with the survey sites and getting regular survey work, for which I have not paid any fee for registration. If interested you can also take up that one.

The source lists a wide variety of great survey sites. Even gives you video tutorials to show how to use them.
