Where to Find the Highest Paid Surveys
Many marketing companies based on the Internet claim to offer
the highest paid surveys, but only a few truly have good deals.
When searching for the highest paid surveys online, it is a good
idea to find websites that are well maintained and professional.
Some of the surveys that pay the best are focus groups.
It is a good idea for people interested in earning extra income
by taking surveys to research the companies offering the surveys
before giving them their time or money. One way to tell which
sites are legitimate is to look for survey directories that
require the sites posting the surveys to pay to be listed. If
the companies advertising their surveys must pay the directory,
then the directory has an incentive to connect them to people
willing to do the surveys in order to keep their business.
Survey companies with professional, well maintained websites are
usually pretty reputable. They are normally top marketing firms
with good reputations. Cheaply designed websites are often good
indicators of less reputable and potentially misleading
opportunities.
People looking for the highest paid surveys should look into
participating in focus groups. Focus groups require the
participants to give up several hours of their time to meet with
other consumers and marketers to discuss particular products.
Focus groups are often very long and detailed, but they tend to
pay well. People can make up to $150 an hour in some focus
groups.
It is important to be realistic when judging the promises of
Internet survey companies. Sites that offer extravagant rewards
are usually not worth the time, while sites promising modest
compensation are more likely to be honest and worthwhile.
