Over the past few years I have tried to make money on line. so far I have made a few bucks. I had been doing online surveys for a while, but never really got anthing to speak of. my main complaint is that many of the survey sites will do a seris of pre qulifying questions, only to tell me 15 minutes later that I didnt qulify. Why do I have to pre qualify when I filled out the profile questions. why not jsut send me the ones I qualify for since they already know my adress zip code age gender etc. I really got truned off by the nuber of sites that I spent time on to olny get to a point that I dont qualify. The other complaint I have is site that want you to sign up for stuff to take the survey. I refuse to sign up for a credit card, or insurance quote when I dont want tehm. I dod like send earnings and inbox dollars, but it take forever to get to the $30.00 pay out with out taking surveys or completing offers. I would love to hear others expierences with paid survey sites!

I really don't like paid surveys. It's either the pay is so small or they would just turn out to be scams. They are just a waste of time. At least that's my opinion about it.

The absolute best ones for me are these 2. www.toluna.com lets you cash out at 60,000 points which gets you $20. My surveys have always run between 1000 and 15000 points so it doesn't take long to cash out. You also get points for updating your profile, poll questions, etc. The second one is www.dollarsurveys.net which pays you a dollar to your paypal for each survey no matter if you do 1 or 100. I skip the offers and go straight for the surveys. Hope that helps.

I love survey sites. This is the first way that I started making money online. I didnt believe at first that I could make money online until I found a survey site and tried it. When I got a check in the mail I was so happy! My two favorite survey sites are opinionoutpost and surveyspot. I have been a member at both sites for years and love them both.
