Global Test Market: Do you read all the questions of the Survey?

Hi Friends,
I am member of Global Test Market Survey and get 1-3 survey every month. Most of the time I am not eligible to complete the survey and get only 5 points for the survey. Whenever I get a survey which I can complete, it takes only browsing time for to finish the survey and I do not read everything on the page, I read only the instruction to proceed with the completing survey.
I believe that all these reports of different survey are completed by people like me who do not even care about the option and just finish the survey to earn the point. So in this case there is no reality in the survey results.
Do you read everything on the page of any survey?
Thank You for sharing.

Globaltestmarket use to be my number one survey panel that I'll do surveys for. Don't get me wrong I still will do surveys on that panel if it came down to it. I found better survey panels that'll pay you $1.00 dollar just to take 1 survey and I'm not talking about surveydollars.net I'm talking about a panel that will give you 110 points or 120 points for a survey to earn your $1.00 dollar. I think I've made $10 or $11 dollars at the end of each week and cashed in all the points for that amount. If you will like you can check it out on my website in my profile.

Nope, I just browse them really quickly... I also am a member but I just deleted my account last week since I think waiting to receive surveys then they will tell you that you don't qualify for it is not worth it.. i think their main clients are americans so people from other countries are not a priority.... it's like waiting for forever just to complete the 100 point sigh....

Yeah, I read all the questions...after all, that's what we're being paid for. And actually I find some surveys interesting so it's easy to pay attention to them -- I like the ones about new products especially. Another reason to pay attention to surveys is that some have cheater detection questions to catch those users who aren't answering questions carefully. I'm from the US and get more surveys so perhaps that gives me more motivation to do them carefully. Americans don't get five points for not qualifying for surveys on Global Test Market any more, though...we just get entries into sweepstakes now. I'm surprised (and a little jealous) that other users still get those five points!

Hi Ajay Singh Baghel: When I took these surveys I did my best to do so but some of these tasks are too long that I just wanted to finish them and get my money to do this job, especially those that ask almost the same questions over and over again with little variuations. I think that if they'd make their surveys more simple, people would read everything but when you know the survey will be too long you want to finish it as soon as possible.

Me also. Just like most people in here said, I also earn very slow from this survey site. If you are not from US or Canada, survey site is not an advisable site to earn. Most surveys target people from those countries so expect that international members will got fewer survey. It takes forever to reach cashout!

Hmm... Well, that is sad.
I rarely do surveys, but if I did, I would answer it as truthfully as I can. I guess it would depend on what the survey is about and what it's for, but it's probably still best if people taking surveys would think this way: 'what if the result of that survey is to be used for making decisions that will eventually affect us?'

Welcome to MyLot .
Very valid point that some of the survey may be related for making some decision and that may affect us. Whatever survey I have finished till dates were related to Salary, Company, Job satisfaction and about some products. So I do not think these will affect us badly even if I complete the survey without reading.
I am happy that you read and than complete the survey .
