Sure it's possible. What do you mean "it's too hard..."? And for those who say you just get points, I don't think it's fair to make macro statements lumping all surveys together. Sure, some, like mysurvey, have you accumulate points. But when you cash out, it takes, on average 2-3 weeks to get your check. I don't think it's all that bad.

The main thing I have learned about online surveys is be patient and good things will happen dont just pick and choose at the begining. Most of these compnaies are monitoring what you input and how fast you respond. The longer you stay with a company and give them good quality reviews the better the amount for each survey will be. I started awhile back and can honestly say I get around $75 - $100 per month in my opinion thats not bad it pays for lunch  .. So keep with it and read learn and sign up for alot of the surveys it does help if you have an aliment or are not the sterotipical housewife. In my case a middle aged soldier that might help me a little because most guys I know my age dont do surveys. So you are probably competing from a bigger pool of people. Again tho best of luck stick with it and let us know how it goes.

What is so hard about using a keyboard and clicking a mouse?
Maybe this is just not your thing?
Just a thought......

Pinky, it isn't easy for some of us. I am glad it is easy for you though. I find it very difficult to sit in front of a computer screen hour after hour filling out dead-end surveys. Plus all you have to "wade" through to get to actual paying surveys. This is something I am physically able to do and mentally, yes, but it is not easy for me. I have to keep trying because I have no alternative at this time.

Oregon it does get easier after about a month you should have a feel for wich company is best for you and what ones are a little easier on the eyes. If your looking for quick money tho this is not the thing this takes a long time with devotion anddedication to get a steady income rolling in. At best its good for taking thefamily out to lunch or dinner once a month. Have you thought about doing mystery shopping?

Sorry about that. I didn't want to discourage you. You just gotta keep at it and weed out the ones that don't work for you. To tell the truth, I have quit doing surveys for maybe 40 companies ( websites ). They either didn't pay, or it was all just sweepstakes. I just stick with the ones that work for me now.
I just got signed up with a new one today and made $4 allready.
I will not post it on my site until I actually see the $$. It's called buzzback. Check them out if you wish.
Keep your head up !.
Pinky.

As someone who is in market research, I was glad to see the conversation come around to it not being good to lie. It's a problem for us when we want to provide the client with the best possible data that they are paying a lot of money to get.
People don't realize how a perceived minor lie can result in skewed information. Each of you represents thousands with your opinion, and demographics really do matter.
If you think about it, lying to get into a study is stealing. It's scamming. It's getting paid for nothing - actually worse than nothing because the feedback can contribute to polluting the aggregate data.
So, thanks for not lying!
