Does anyone really make money from taking online surveys?

I have signed up for several online survey sites that are to pay generously, supposedly. Yet when I take these surveys, at the end I am to sign up for all of these "free" trials to receive anything. Does anyone actually do this to get paid and if so, how much have you been paid?

I started all the online moneymaking mess just a little more than a month ago. So far, surveys are the best money drivers for me. The best sites: ACOP and Your2cents (each one more than $20). Just yesterday I got PayPal payment from Surveys.com for $1. In TestSpin account I have $24, but it can be redeemed by Amazone cetificates, not cash. Still, not bad. Good Luck.

when you do the online surveys, you do not have to sign up with the free trials at the end. in fact must of the sites tell you what you have to do to get credit. like must of the time you only have to fill out the first two pages. at least thats all i have to do on my sites. you should come take a look at them. they are all free to join free to earn. i got a few tips on their to help you get started if you need them. also if you need any help just contact me and ill help you the best i can. good luck and happy earnings! www.waterworld96.blogspot.com

I am a member of some survey sites and those which have actually paid me include acop, myview, globtestmarket,ciao-surveys. The only difference is the method of payment. Acop is sending american express cheques, myview in the paypal, global in local currency cheque and ciao is giving coupons to be encashed by buying things at indiatimes.

I don't think those are actual survey sites that you signed up for, it sounds more like a Gpt Or Ptsu site. I am a member of those also. When you do those "surveys" on these types of sites you never have to sign up for the things at the end. I have a list of legit survey sites that pay you for the surveys you complete, how much you get determines on the survey and the survey company of course. You can view this list at: http://www.blogcharm.com/Surveys By the way what sites are you a member of? Good Luck. :)
