Paid surveys online are probably the easiest way to earn extra cash from the Internet. Where else is earning possible by merely answering some marketing surveys that only take from 10 to 30 minutes to do?

Why the Need for Marketing Surveys?

Marketing surveys have been part of marketing strategies and product development of big companies in the US, Canada, and Australia, as well as some global companies. For instance, the National Family Opinion (NFO) MySurvey has been offering paid surveys to people since 1946. Survey links like NFO help people with Internet access connect with companies that offer paid surveys. This direct market research method aims to get raw information about how people find certain products and services. Then companies can decide on what to do with such products and services based on the survey results.

How it Started

Survey forms were distributed to consumer-members for filling up. These forms were actually questionnaires to get members’ comments about specific products and services. Companies needed to know what products and services were popular with the market, what needed further development, and what needed to be pulled out. Surveys did this for them. When consumers, who were members of a survey link like NFO, accomplished and submitted the forms, they were paid for their time and effort. Pays ranged from 3 or 5 cents to about 5 or 10 dollars per survey form. Some companies were willing to pay more. The pay scale depended on the length of time needed to accomplish a survey form. With the advent of computers and the Internet, paid surveys online started to flourish, even globally.

Why Paid Surveys Online?

Companies discovered that unpaid surveys, like those done through telemarketing, were inadequate to get people spending enough time to answer calls and do surveys. What data they got were insufficient to base marketing decisions on. Some people were rude the moment they heard the word “survey” over the phone. People simply didn’t want to waste time on telemarketing surveys. So what companies started doing was to have the surveys online and this time, with pay. To promote paid surveys online today, the lure was to offer ways on how to earn extra cash on the Internet. Hence, today, thousands of people from all over the world almost beg to be part of paid surveys online. And thus, too, fake paid surveys online started to pop up like mushrooms on the Internet.

What Paid Surveys Online to Choose

A lot of paid surveys online scams are so convincingly presented as legitimate schemes. But it’s simple to tell fake from real-genuine paid surveys online offer free memberships. There should be no initial or down payments online before people interested to try paid surveys can join paid survey links. There are lots of legitimate online survey links that offer access to companies that pay for such surveys.

Get Full Earning Potential from Paid Surveys Online

The key to big earnings from paid surveys online is to enlist as consumer-member in as many paid survey links as possible. Just make sure that the survey links are not just sites that will keep sending product offers or spam.

One simple and profitable way I’ve found to make money online is to get paid for doing surveys. Anyone can do this in their spare time from any computer in the world. It doesn’t matter who you are because market research companies need all kinds of people to take paid surveys. If you have an internet connection and an opinion you can get paid for doing surveys.

This article will give you 5 tips that will help you to get paid for doing surveys.

#1 - Find a good list of survey companies that pay cash for your opinion. This sounds easy I know, but it is harder than you think. When you begin searching for paid surveys or paid survey companies online the bulk of your results will be websites that want you to pay them for their list of paid survey sites. Don’t do this! It may take a little longer, but you can find sites that list paying survey sites for free. There’s no need for you to pay someone to get paid for doing surveys. Once you get that free list of survey companies you’re ready to move to step 2.

#2 - Go through your list and join every paid survey site listed on it. You don’t have to do it all at once, but try to go back to the list every day and register with 5 or 10 more paid survey sites. By the end of the month you should be through the whole list and that’s good. What you’re doing is diversifying because each site may only send 2-4 surveys a week or even a month. By joining as many survey sites as possible you increase the number of paid surveys you’ll receive and also the chances to get the highest paying surveys. And we are trying to get paid for doing surveys here.

#3 - If you haven’t already, go back to each paid survey site and complete your personal profile. The survey companies use these profiles to decide what surveys they should send you. If your profile is incomplete you could be missing out on valuable surveys or getting the wrong surveys. You don’t want to waste your time online filling out surveys you can’t get paid for so take the time to give the survey companies accurate information. One of the keys to get paid for doing surveys is to make sure you are receiving the correct surveys and you’re not wasting your time on surveys that won’t pay.

#4 - When you start receiving surveys take them all. I know it’s not possible, but for the first 30 days you should try to take every survey sent to you, even the ones that only enter you into drawings. There are two reasons for doing this. First, you will be learning about each survey company, what types of surveys they send, how they pay and which ones are the highest paying to do surveys. More importantly, you will be showing the survey companies that you are serious about taking surveys and that you will be reliable. This is important and will set the tone for the rest of your experience with paid surveys. The survey companies like reliable respondents and will reward you by sending you the highest paying surveys.

#5 - Besides taking all the surveys sent to you, you should also make sure you take them in a timely manner so make sure to check your email regularly for new surveys. Some surveys only require a set number of people so you want to get to your surveys quickly or you could miss out on a great opportunity. The highest paying surveys especially tend to fill up quickly. Don’t miss out, your goal is to get paid for doing surveys and you need to keep on top of your survey invitations.

These 5 tips will give you a great head start to get paid for doing surveys. Remember, it may take a month or two to really start to see the fruits of your labors so don’t give up. There is no easier way to start making money online than to get paid for doing surveys. You can get started in minutes so go ahead and make some money online today from paid surveys.

Internet paid surveys can pay well if you can set aside the amount of time just like you would for your day job. This may sound mind-boggling to you since many people have been saying that it is so easy to get paid for taking surveys that you can earn hundreds a week by only doing one or two simple surveys. If the internet paid surveys pay that well, the survey companies would have gone broke by now. The truth is, doing internet paid surveys can get you some good income rather easily but to replace your job, you need more than just doing a few internet paid surveys every week.

The reason why internet paid surveys are so popular among income seekers is the freedom it offers. It is true that you have the flexibility to organize your time around surveys and still get paid for taking surveys. For homemakers or students who have some spare time in between studies or household chores, this is a good opportunity to earn extra cash. Students do not need to support their families and with a few hundred dollars a month, they can spend it on a new bicycle, or buy the latest Playstation gadget. Homemakers who get paid for taking surveys can use that to pay for groceries or other home bills. In short, while internet paid surveys do let you get paid for taking surveys, they are not really designed as full-time jobs. While this is generally true, there are still folks who make it their full-time careers but that really requires more time and effort.

Basically internet paid surveys are online survey questionnaires. They are used to tell the market survey companies what you as a consumer think about certain products so that the product companies can plan their product lines and advertising campaigns. There are probably millions of companies that hire survey companies to conduct internet paid surveys so you get paid for taking surveys online. Each survey takes between 5 minutes to an hour to complete. Simple surveys pay from $5 to $30, while the more detailed ones pay more than $50. Generally, very expensive internet paid surveys are specialized and require you to have specific expertise for example medical research surveys that are more geared towards medical practitioners.

Most survey companies would accept anyone regardless of age, gender, educational background or occupation. As long as you are consuming products, you can qualify. But it helps if you are a professional or have more skill sets. Since the survey companies would profile you before they invite you for internet paid surveys, it is important that you list down every little detail about your background. This would significantly improve the chances of you qualifying for more internet paid surveys and get paid for taking surveys with them. Do also check with the survey companies if there is a minimum age requirement.

Not all market survey companies pay their survey takers in cash. Yes, you still get paid for taking surveys in cash but several companies prefer to reward their survey takers with prizes, gift vouchers and a chance to enter into their prize draws. Different market research companies have different payment policies so be sure to check with them. However, to quickly build up your portfolio with these market survey companies, do not be too picky initially about the kind of internet paid surveys. Think long term as some of these survey companies would invite you to better paying surveys as you participate in more internet paid surveys and establish a good track record.

Find out from my survey blog where to find good and established market survey companies for internet paid surveys so you can get paid for taking surveys as soon as possible.

Howard Deutsch asked:


The current economic downturn has changed the world dramatically. It’s a new ball game for every organization. Now, more than any time in the past 60+ years, current feedback from employees and customers is essential for knowing where we are, where we need to be, and for planning our organizations’ futures. Conducting effective surveys provides information and insight for making informed decisions, driving positive change and significantly increasing profit and organizational sustainability.

If your organization conducts surveys, or if you are thinking of conducting a survey, this article will help you achieve excellent results and avoid pitfalls often encountered while conducting surveys.

To receive a PDF version of the complete survey report by e-mail, including employee survey best practices, key survey findings, survey data and verbatim comments, please send an e-mail to hdeutsch@Quantisoftdotcom requesting the “Employee Survey Best Practices Report.”

Survey Best Practices - Increasing Your Survey Expertice

As a survey company we are often asked questions about survey practices: What is the best way to conduct surveys? How can we get the highest possible response rate? Should we use a survey company, or should we try to use a self-use online survey service? The questions we receive are many and varied.

While Quantisoft has extensive survey experience and expertise, we decided to conduct a survey to identify employee survey best practices at organizations we do not conduct surveys for. The findings of the survey validated our own survey experience and produced interesting and useful information and insight about employee surveys.

This article includes the key Lessons Learned and Actions for You to Consider from Quantisoft’s Survey About Employee Survey Practices. Please contact Howard Deutsch at hdeutsch@Quantisoftdotcom to receive the full Employee Survey Best Practices Report, including the survey findings, data and verbatim comments.

Lessons Learned

1. Types of Employee Surveys - Participating organizations are using a wide range of employee surveys to gather information and insight for making better decisions and making informed changes. Types of surveys they conduct include employee satisfaction/engagement, employee benefits opinion, employee turnover, sales force opinion, IT customer satisfaction, business risk assessment and other surveys. Information about types of employee, customer and specialty surveys is presented at http://www.quantisoft.com/Industries/SurveyTypes.htm.

2. Survey Frequency - The most common frequency for conducting surveys is annually.

3. Satisfaction with Survey Companies vs. Self-use Survey Services - Organizations that primarily use survey companies are significantly more satisfied with their survey process than organizations primarily using self-service online survey services. The reasons survey companies are providing greater satisfaction and value than self-service survey services include the expertise and experience provided, receiving survey reports quickly without the need to take time to generate graphs and other reports in-house, objective analysis of survey results, more focus on implementing changes, greater support and involvement from management and other factors.    

4. Effectiveness of Survey Practices - Organizations primarily using survey companies rate the effectiveness of key survey practice significantly higher than organizations using self-service online survey services. The survey practices with the largest gaps in effectiveness ratings are receiving support from managers, producing timely useful reports, communicating survey findings, developing implementation plans, analyzing survey results and achieving results from surveys.

5. Importance of Survey Practices - Survey respondents identified the “most” important survey practices as keeping responses anonymous, conducting follow-up surveys, time taken to complete survey and analysis of survey data.

6. Survey Response Period and Rate - Responding organizations strive to achieve a high survey response rate. A 2-week survey response period is most popular.  A third week typically generates a higher response rate. 60% of responding organizations typically have a survey response rate of 60% or greater.

7. Primary Survey Approach - Online/Web surveys are the most often-used approach. Organizations are learning ways to end the use of paper surveys, even for employees that do not use computers to perform their job. 70% of responding organizations use Online/Web surveys as their primary approach, 20% use paper surveys as their primary approach and 10% use Online/Web surveys supplemented with paper surveys as their primary approach.

8. Reasons for Conducting Employee Surveys - The top reasons for conducting employee surveys include identifying performance improvement opportunities, assessing employee satisfaction and engagement levels and trends, part of ongoing measurement process and identifying causes of employee turnover.

9. Surveys Achieving Their Objectives - Some organizations are achieving very strong results from surveys while others are falling short. Key factors for achieving survey objectives include management support for conducting surveys and implementing changes, using a survey company and executing well on all of the survey practices. Surveys generate significant quantitative and qualitative results when designed and executed well, followed up by effective analysis and implementation of changes identified by surveys.

10. Using Normative Benchmarking Data - Survey respondents prefer to benchmark their survey results with survey results from other organizations. However, they are not comfortable using benchmarking data unless they can be sure the data enables “apples-to-apples” comparisons. Similarity of organizations being benchmarked, similarity of survey questions/wording, common time frame for when survey data was collected and other factors are important for making valid benchmarking comparisons.

11. Survey Best Practices - Knowing and consistently following best practices is very important for successfully conducting surveys and achieving results. Organizations that fail to follow best practices for all survey practices fail to achieve the full potential results from surveys.

Actions for You to Consider - Conducting Better Surveys

1. Share the full Employee Survey Best Practices Report with people in your organization who are responsible for conducting surveys, and with managers that can benefit from conducting surveys. Send your request for the full report to hdeutsch@Quantisoftdotcom.

2. Compare your organization’s approach for conducting surveys with the best practices, lessons learned and other information and insight included in the full report available from Quantisoft. Identify and implement changes your organization can make to achieve greater results from surveys.

3. Consider conducting surveys to gather information and insight for increasing your organization’s competitiveness and bottom line in this difficult economic environment. Beyond the usual employee satisfaction/engagement surveys, other types of surveys can enable your organization to identify ways to increase sales, identify and manage risks more effectively, gather feedback for reducing costs and increasing quality and customer service levels, enhance your organization’s “going green” profile, get more value from employee benefits dollars spent and much more.

4. The world has changed dramatically during the past year. The information and insight gathered from surveys conducted just a few months ago may no longer be valid. Update previous surveys now to gather current information and adjust action plans to reflect the “new reality”.

5. Make sure to focus your organization’s surveys on gathering actionable information that will positively impact employees, customers, the environment and your bottom line.
