Things I dislike about Paid Surveys

All my past blog post were about the positive side of paid survey sites and how one can make good money using them. Though its true that you can make good money from the paid survey sites, but at the same time we must know that not all the people who want to make money from survey websites are successful. Typically there are only few percantage of people that make good money this percentage can range from 40 to 60% and about 20 tp 30% people are making money but not on regular basis and rest 10 to 20% people are those who fail.

Being sucessful making money from paid websites is not easy tasks and there are few things that I dislike about these websites. Despite being happy making money from this method I am writing this post, here comes the list of dislikes:

• Not a fixed income source: Sometimes the income from paid survets goes as high as 2000$ a month, however sometimes its down by 80% and in rare months I get not surveys to take. 
• Multiple websites registeration: I have to manage registeration with multiple websites as its nto sure which website can get you more surveys to complete. 
• Eligibility: Sometimes after filling the survey information I get the message of not being ellibigle. This is frustrating. 
• Payments Delay: Sometimes the payment is made immediately after completing the survey however the delays in some cases pisses me off. 
• Scam: Chances of being scammed are high.
• Not every survey get you cash: Sometime you are paid as points that you can redeem or gifts or gift cards. This is not I like always. 

Still getting paid for completing a 20 to 30 minutes survery is what I like about. Here is a fresh list of sites you might want to try https://www.surveypolice.com/gpt-rankings

Free paid Online surveys : Earn money from paid surveys

Taking online surveys is always said to be extremely easy and quick. Be as it may, what does it actually involve? Even though taking online surveys requires little effort, you should know what to expect if you’re considering taking online surveys regularly.

What are Online Surveys truly about?

Online surveys may ask you any kind of information – either broader, or more specific. They might ask you very general questions about your tastes and preferences – what kind of sugar you add to your coffee; whether you have it black or with milk; if you prefer decaf, etc. You find that online surveys can be really fun and pleasant, because the questions also help you think about what you really like as a consumer, and may also help you reconsider some of your purchasing decisions.

Other online surveys ask you about your purchasing history. If the survey is about electric appliances, it will inquire into your last purchases of appliances; the brands you prefer; the budget you allocated; your future plans to purchase any other appliances, etc. These types of online surveys help you account for your own purchasing habits. Also, they might give you valuable info to consider next time you purchase within the range of products that the online survey is about.

How Long Does it take to Complete Online Surveys?

There are one-page surveys and multi-screen surveys. The one-page online surveys usually ask a very general question, such as “why do you take paid surveys?” These surveys also feature a list of answer options, in a multiple choice format, that require you to select one or more of the answers.

Multi-screen online surveys are more complex; more detailed, and might have sub-categories. You may need to provide your demographic information (age group, gender), your income bracket; credit history (number and type of credit cards). Beware, the legitimate survey sites will never ask you about your credit card number or your bank account. Multi-screen surveys usually take longer – up to 30 minutes, sometimes more. They are usually well paid and incentivized – you may get up to $75 by completing a multi-screen survey. Online surveys that feature more than a few, specific questions may also be addressed to a narrower target group. For instance, a very detailed survey about lipstick is more likely to encompass the female population, rather than the male. Surveys about mortgage plans may be designed for people in higher income brackets. Therefore, you will qualify for more specific online surveys when you have provided more personal details in your user account with the survey companies you’ve registered

Should I take Online Surveys for Prizes, rather than Cash?

Some survey respondents are disappointed when they receive an invitation for an online survey that gives out prizes or enters survey takers in lottery drawings, instead of paying solid cash. Some survey takers disregard these surveys and do not complete them, but are twice as disappointed to find out that they have been deleted from the database of the survey site as “unreliable respondents”. Reputable surveys companies vary the prizes they give out – the top-level surveys may pay up to $100, but the smallest one-question surveys may enter you into drawings. However, the survey company keeps a record of your activity as a survey respondent, and if you disregard its invitations, you may end up out of its respondent pool. That way, you also lose the chance to complete the premium cash surveys. Therefore, it pays to complete the smaller surveys and build a reputation of a reliable survey respondent. Good luck!
