I have been taking surveys online for a while now and I see that the benefits come slowly as I take one survey after another. What do you think of doing these online? Are there sites that work better for the surveyed than others?

If you live in USA or UK there a lot of fun when you join survey site because you will always receive survey but if you not live in this country you just get a very little survey. For me i not like international survey site because i not always qualified for survey. I just join a survey site only for my country.

I don't like this survey type jobs cause I feel little bore with this type of jobs and also the earning is not sufficient...

I am a member of a couple of survey sites. I just hate it when you get what you think is half way through the survey and then it says...you are not applicable. That is aggravating. It has been a while and one of the survey sites would send a check as payout but I think that they have changed their payment style now. I haven't done it since then.

I enjoy doing surveys if they are not terribly long. Otherwise I get tired and there is always a problem with computer glitches. I work in market research so i am kicked out of most of the surveys. But I still have some success with mysurvey. That is the only strictly survey site that I am on. I am on swagbucks which offers surveys and I have a lot of success with their surveys. I am also on Fusion Cash which offers a lot of surveys but I have only qualified for a few. MyPoints is another site that offers many surveys. Swagbucks, Fusion Cash and MyPoints will reward you just for attempting the survey.

I'm not a fan of survey sites, as I don't believe they are 100% legit. You do surveys, just as they ask, and half the time, you never get paid for doing it.

I belong to more survey sites than I can count. It seems like after answering a few questions they end up saying I'm not qualified! Since I came back to mylot I haven't done many of them. I think if you stick to it most of them are pretty good.

surely survey sites can work better in my opinion but normally they are legit so it is true that you need time and patience before reaching the target and so the payment but if you are lucky enough you can earn sometimes decent money...so naturally hoing these sites can improves their systems and so we can earn more!!
