subject: Surveys For Money: Make Money From Online Surveys [print this page] Most people who read about surveys for money and how to make money from online surveys believe it is simply a matter of finding a survey site, signing on and then making money by completing lists of online surveys. It is nothing like that, and my purpose here is to give some advice about to make real money from surveys and not just the odd 50c or a dollar.
It is often asked that if somebody is making money from something, why tell everybody else about it? If it really works, why sell the idea and not just carry on making a mint yourself? That is very true, and when you buy these products it's sometimes pretty obvious that nobody could have made money from it other than by selling the eBook. Not so online surveys.
The more people that take part in surveys for money online then the more surveys are going to appear online - the more viable online surveys are going to be to marketing businesses and the manufacturing companies that employ them.
These surveys offer companies extremely useful information such as demographical analysis of which area of a city tend to purchase branded goods and which prefer the supermarket's own brand. Whether most people prefer to buy two for one offers or if money off is better. They then know how to stock their supermarkets in each area and what offers will work best.
There are many reasons for businesses carrying out surveys: political, economical or simply finding out if the Beatles still sell, if Bruce Springsteen is past his sell by date or if Lady Gaga is ready for knocking down or should be promoted. This is all potentially critical information for the future marketing strategy of businesses.
The more people that undertake surveys for money online, the more businesses will use the internet for their surveys. Therefore, it is to the benefit of those involved in online surveys for more people to undertake surveys, and that is why they tend to offer you free information on them.
So what benefits do you get by carrying out such surveys? Many in fact! You can win money in hard cash, you can get free entry into sweepstakes or raffles for cash or prizes, and you can also win fabulous vacations. What does it cost you? Nothing! Why? Because the survey companies get paid to have the surveys carried out, and they do that by using part of their payment to cover the cost of the prizes and the cash paid for undertaking the survey. Either that or the expense is paid by the business seeking the survey results.
You might find some websites offering you lists of survey sites for a price, but there is no need to pay any money - there are also websites offering these lists free of charge. Why pay for something that should be free?
Finding surveys for money is not difficult, but there is just the one catch. Making money from online surveys involves using more than one survey site, and if that is all you have you will complete two or three surveys that suit you and that's it. You will make next to nothing. You need lists of survey sites so that you can choose from hundreds and not just a dozen or so. That's not so easy, but worth it if you find them.
That apart, doing surveys for money is a great way to spend a couple of free hours in the afternoon and that should pay for your night out. Do it for a few months and that's your family vacation and the holidays already paid.
