One of the most common questions I get on this
website is "Peter, how do I make the most money with these
online survey opportunities?" There are a couple of
extremely easy ways to add to your bottom line in the
survey-taking world.
1) Apply to as many survey and market research
sites as possible. When you join a Survey database, you
will be given anywhere between 350 to 550 different survey
companies. This may sound insane, but at some point, you
will want to have had applied to ALL of them on the list.
Don't try to knock them out all in one day, but go for 10-20 a
day. The more survey companies you join, the more people
who will want your opinion at some point and will come looking
to pay you for it.
2) Decrease the amount of repetitive work that
you have to do. When you're joining survey sites, they
all ask basically the same information when first getting
started. You don't need to put in the same info manually
every time. Instead, use a tool like
RoboForm. Using
RoboForm you can fill in your information once, and when
prompted on subsequent sites, fill in ALL your personal
information with the press of a single button. This is a
HUGE time saver. Saving time means having more time to
fill out surveys for cash.
3) Many survey sites will offer you
opportunities to complete sections that reflect your own
personal information. There may be a section on your
finances, what kind of car you drive, your travel habits, etc.
Whenever you see these, FILL THEM OUT. This will give
you access to surveys that the other 99% of the people who
don't fill them out won't ever get to see.
4) Cash is good, but points aren't bad either.
Many survey sites pay you in "points" and when you accumulate
enough of them you get to use them to purchase items.
Don't avoid the sites that pay in points. I don't know
about you, but a $250 Wal-Mart gift certificate is as good as
cash to me because it will definitely get used.
5) Don't avoid the drawings either. A
lot of times, particularly on short surveys, market research
companies will offer an entry into a cash drawing for your
participation. There's no reason not to take the time to
fill out a 3 minute survey for a chance to win $1,000 in
addition to many other smaller cash prizes. Your chances
of winning something are actually not bad because a LOT of
people do not complete these surveys at all! They just
wait until the cash surveys fill their box.
So basically the name of the game is to
maximize your exposure. Join as many companies as
possible, give them as much information about you as possible,
and take as many surveys as possible. Those are some of
the ways you can maximize your online survey profits!
