Can You Really Make Money From Surveys?
Another popular way of making money at home is by taking surveys. I personally do not enjoy this job, but I know of many work at homers who love it.
The reason that I do not enjoy paid survey sites is that truthfully, there just isn’t that much money in it. Sure, there are always stories of those few people who are making 30,000 and more on it, but the average person is lucky to get paid even $5 a survey. That said, it can be enjoyable to make money just by giving your opinion, so below I am going to give you some tips on how you can make money taking surveys. Who knows? You may be able to do great in it!
The first thing to do is sign up with legitimate survey companies. You NEVER should have to pay to sign up. Additionally, do not pay a subscription to sites in order to get a list of survey companies. I have tried it, and truthfully they aren’t giving you anything that you don’t already know.
Here are some companies I enjoy:
SurveySavvy- https://www.surveysavvy.com/ss/ss_index.php?id=3199849&action=join
Greenfield Online- http://www.greenfieldonline.com/TrafficUI/mscui/page.aspx?cid=1&ptid=4&utcoffset=4
SurveySpot- http://www.surveyspot.com/
Global Opinion Panels- https://www.globalopinionpanels.com
NPD Online Research- http://www.npdor.com/
American Consumer Opinion- http://www.acop.com/Default.aspx
Lightspeed Panel- http://www.lightspeedpanel.com/
One final thing is to only take surveys that promise a given amount. Do NOT waste your time with one’s that offer “Sweepstakes Entries” as there are many other surveys out there which will give you a more reliable payment.
Good Luck!

I’ve never had any luck with survey sites. I never qualify for the surveys.I guess I’m not in the demographic. Also they take too much time out of your day. It’s not worth it in my opinion.
Mrsz06- I agree completely with you on this & that is the main reason I stopped taking surveys, still, I believe that some people are able to do well with surveys, so I’m just going to leave it out there for them.
I tried surveys when I first started working from home. I never really made money with them. They were fun at first, but fun doesn’t help to pay the bills or even give you a little bit of extra spending money.
