The Good Girl List - Survey sites I make money from!

You have reveiwed the bad survey list now its time to talk about how to make money with Surveys! There are many great blogs written about surveys which can help you determine your best options.

There are three simple keys to making money online with Surveys

1. Get the highest paying surveys available (look for how much is given for the survey before clicking on the link.) Know what a high paying survey looks like!
     For example, How do you take a survey? Sitting in front of the computer with your mouse in the right or left hand and you make some clicks for demographic information and then some qualifying questions and finally the meat of the what the surveyor is looking for. Right?  Time to take a survey can range from 2 - 15 minutes ( Surveys longer than 15 minutes will have larger rewards in the 20 - 75$ range but they are few and far between.)

OK so a good paying survey is Minimun 1.5 - 3.00 dollars.

A great survey will  be $3.50 - 8.50 dollars

Awesome surveys will be 9.00 or more but are fewer in number (Highest  I have completed was 75$ at Erewards which netted me 25$ which I have only recieved twice in two years.)

Know the limits.

2. Find the highest paying survey sites, in other words how much money do you have to earn before cashing out and receiving the money in your hands or bank account? For example, Fushion Cash requires you make 25$ in offers and bonuses before recieving a cash out payment.  ( Which I did in a week with only 10 minutes a day for a 5 day week, my first cash out was for 45$ and I only put in 23 days at ten minutes a day).
  Global test Market asks for 10,000 points for $50 in cash out (still havent' hit that level yet but Global Test Market is the highest paying suryvey site for points to dollars ratio).   Now Panda Research asks for 20,000 points to get $10, see the difference?

3. Know the rewards and how they are calculated before taking surveys. You may have to sign up to see the inner workings of some survey sites, like Inbox Dollars (which is a reason I don't use them.) But the best way to learn about how the company pays you (money, points, or rewards) is to check the FAQ page or click on their rewards page to see what is available.

  Great examples of this is My SoapBox, CokeRewards, and Harrispoll Surveys, their rewards consist of 5 to 50$ gift cards to places like Gap, Target, Best Buy, Olive Garden, Red Lobster and various restaraunts and retail stores. The point ratio is between 20,000 to 35,000 points to recieve the gift card. Now remember rule #1, how long does it take? For My Soapbox the rewards per survey are 1500 and up, which makes it a good place to put some time in for free gift cards. CokeRewards takes 330 points for 50$ in movie tickets and snack bar food (which incidently is about 65 cases of coke products but you can take caps from your friends and redeem them without having to buy the product).

Remember a good rule of thumb: the more points or money you get per survey the faster you recieve rewards.
