Make Money With Surveys- Mindfield Online

Filed under Survey Sites by Jennifer Billy on April 11, 2011 at 10:52 am {no comments}

Doing online surveys is a great way to make a little extra money from home. You will not get rich from this but I feel that if you find the right companies they can be worth your time. I have set a goal of making $250 this year from doing surveys. In order to accomplish this I will need to make around $5 a week.

Once again I have exceeded my goal- YAY! Pretty good since I did not even have time to do any surveys all week. I just did a few Friday night and Saturday. It is good to have a bit of a cushion just in case I can not keep up with as many surveys once summer comes.

Here is what I made last week:

MySurvey- 530 pts ($4.83)
Survey Savvy- $3
Consumer Village- 30 tokens ($.30)
e-poll-- 500 points ($.87)

This Weeks Total: $9 ($4 over goal)

Total For the Year: $122.17 ($52.17 over goal)

Payments Received for Year: $45
*Waiting on payment of $21.90

Go HERE if you are new to surveys and need help getting started.

Mindfield Online is another company that I am currently a member of. Their average survey pays $1-$3. I have however received surveys for $5, $8 and even $25. Unfortunately I did not qualify for those. Surveys take around 5 to 15 minutes to complete.

You can also make money with Mindfield Online by referring others. You can cash out with Mindfield Online once your account hits $5 for check or Paypal.

The only negative to Mindfield Online is that I do not receive a lot of surveys from them. I will usually get one or two e-mails a week. I have received $5 from them so far and currently have $9 in my account.

Opinion Outpost is another one of my favorite survey sites. They have made some small changes in payment since the last time I talked about them so I wanted to update things.

You will be notified of any available surveys through e-mail or by checking in the members area under “Available Surveys”. I usually receive at least one e-mail a day with an available survey from them. I have been paid anywhere from 10 to 40 points ($1-$4) for completing a survey. The highest paying survey I have received from Opinion Outpost was for 60 points, but I did not qualify.

Opinion Outpost pays in 4 different ways, Red Cross donation for 50 points ($5), $5 Amazon gift card for 50 points, $15 Citi gift card for 150 points or a check with a minimum of 200 points ($20).

Since joining in last march I have made $31.60 from Opinion Outpost. I received a check for $9.70 last year and requested another check today for $21.90.

You can sign up for free with Opinion Outpost by going HERE.

Survey Spot is another survey site that I use regularly. They seem to always have surveys available. I receive multiple e-mails from them a day. Again, I only respond to the e-mails that are for surveys that pay in points, not sweepstakes.

They have made some changes since I joined and are currently updating their site. When they switched over to a new system, they paid out all pending money. At that time I received a check for $9. Currently I have 550 points in my account ($5.50).

Once you reach the minimum threshold of 1000 points (the equivalent of $10), the points can then be converted into cash via PayPal or their NEW WebShop vouchers. However they are doing updates to the WebShop and it has been closed so I do not know much about it. But since PayPal is always my first choice I am not very concerned about it either.

I have set a goal of making $250 this year from doing surveys. In order to accomplish this I will need to make around $5 a week. I fell a little short this week, but am still ahead overall.

Here is what I have made so far this week:
Opinion Outpost- $2.50
Synovate Global Opinion Panel- 950 points ($.95)
SurveyHead- $1
e-Poll- 500 points

Payments Received for Year: $20

Global Test Market is another site that I would recommend joining. I have been a member for about a year and a half. Most surveys take about 20 minutes to complete and pay about 30-40 market points. I have made anywhere from 15 to 60 points. I currently have 585 market points or around $29.25.

Global Test Market will send you an e-mail when a survey is available for you, or you can also log into your account to check. I will normally receive a few surveys a week, however I will only complete the ones that pay in points and skip the ones that are for entries in drawings.

Global Test Market pays with a check once you hit 1,000 market points- $50. My goal is to receive a check from them once a year. I have earned 140 points so far this year.

I am writing my weekly survey post early because there is a site that has just opened up to new applicants and I want to tell you about it before if closes. So my states are only from Monday to Friday morning.

Synovate is now accepting new panelist. I am sure it will fill up fast so I wanted to let you know about this company so you could join.

Surveys take about 5-10 minutes to complete. I have been payed from 10 points to all the way up to 1400 points to complete a survey. I was even payed 250 points for completing registration and profile surveys. From time to time, they may even invite you to test a product or participate in a research project conducted by telephone.

I have been a member of Synovate for about a year. In that time I have made $5 and currently have 2110 points. Synovate pays out in checks starting at 5,000 points for $5.

I really enjoy being a part of this company. They do not take on new members too often so I would highly recommend that you sign up as soon as possible for Synovate.

Make Money With Surveys- Consumer Village

I have set a goal of making $250 this year from doing surveys. In order to accomplish this I will need to make around $5 a week. I only did surveys 2 days last week so I did not make my goal but I am still ahead. Here is last weeks stats:

Opinion Outpost- $2.60
Palm Research- $.10
MySurvey- 110 points ($1)

This Weeks Total: $3.70
Total For the Year: $53.50

* Payments Received
$20 PayPal from MySurvey

Go HERE if you are new to surveys and need help getting started.

Consumer Village is a bit different then other survey companies because not only can you earn tokens by doing surveys but you can earn tokens by joining in dialogue discussions, answering flash polls and even doing high payout in-person focus groups and product testing. Most surveys pay 100 tokens or more and dialogue/polls will pay 30 tokens.

Consumer Village pays in Amazon gift cards. Your balance is cumulative. You will earn your first $5 gift card with 500 tokens. However as your tokens increase your payout will also increase. So far I have received a $5 Amazon gift card (500 tokens). I am currently at 540 tokens and will receive another $5 for Amazon once my balance reaches 1000 tokens.

Today I am going to talk about Surveyhead. I have talked about this company before, but wanted to again because they have made some changes and I also made the most with them this past week. Go HERE if you are new to surveys and need help getting started.

A great thing about Surveyhead is that they will start you out with $5 just for signing up! Plus they pay $.10- $.50 to complete profile surveys. The surveys usually pay between $1 and $3. However, I did complete a survey last year for $7!

You can cash out once you hit $10 for magazines, gift cards, donations and Paypal. Paypal is always my first choice. You can cash out with Paypal at $25 or $50. I currently have $20.55 available and $9.50 pending.

Making Money With Surveys- Getting Started

Filed under Survey Sites by Jennifer Billy on February 21, 2011 at 1:36 pm {one comment}

Doing online surveys is a great way to make a little extra money from home. You will not get rich from this but I feel that if you find the right companies they can be worth your time.

I have made $92.70 from surveys over the last year. It has taken me a while to figure out which companies are good and which ones are a waste of time.

I try to stick with survey companies that pay in cash or gift cards. I also usually only do offers that are for actual points or money and stay away from the ones that are for an entry into a drawing. It is also important to sign up to multiple companies so that you will always have a surplus of surveys to take. I am currently signed up with and active with 15 different companies.

I am going to introduce you to all of my favorite companies. I will do a post a week with a new one that I feel is worth signing up to. These are companies that I am currently using and making money with. They are also all FREE to join. You should never be asked to pay anything to join a site. You should also never have to pay a site to provide you with a list of survey sites.

The first thing you are going to want to do is set up a separate e-mail just for surveys. That way you will not fill your regular e-mail with all the surveys you will be receiving. Plus when you are ready to complete some of the surveys they will all be in one place for you to begin going through them.

You also will need to sign up for paypal if you do not already have an account. It is the easiest way to get paid plus some of the companies will only pay through paypal.

You will now be ready to start signing up with companies. If you want you can sign up with a new one each week as I talk about them, or go ahead and sign up to them all at once from my list. I would start out slow however, because you are going to want to fill out all the profile surveys with each site. Not all sites will pay you for doing this and it can be time consuming, but it will help you to qualify for more surveys.

I have set a goal of making $250 this year from taking surveys. To accomplish this I will need to make around $5 a week. This should be pretty attainable by completing just a few surveys a week.

If you would like to join me in this journey please let me know your goal and how you are doing. Also, if you find a site that you are having success with please let me know so I can add it.

I wanted to talk about a survey site that I have already introduced, MySurvey. The reason I wanted to talk about MySurvey again is because I have been making the most money with them and they have also made some changes since I last talked about them.

MySurvey has recently combined with LightSpeed Panel. Since then I have been receiving a lot more surveys. Every time I log into my account I have several surveys waiting to take. The best part is that even if you do not qualify for the survey you will still receive 5 points for trying.

MySurvey will pay out in cash, prizes or charitable donations. You can cash out with PayPal with 1,100 points for $10. I cashed out $20 last week (2,200 points) and currently have 450 points in my account.

So if you havn’t done so already, you can go HERE to sign up with MySurvey!

Survey Savvy is a new survey site that I wanted to tell you about. As a member, you can make a difference by participating in online surveys, focus groups, as well as other interactive studies.

SurveySavvy is unique from other online panels because of its patented referral program that gives you incentives for every survey your referrals complete and additional incentives for every survey their referrals complete. This represents growth to your account balance regardless of whether or not you actually complete any surveys!

I have belonged to Survey Savvy for quite a while now. Currently I have made $3 from completing 2 surveys. You definitely want to check in with them or check for their e-mail invitations because they do have a lot of high paying surveys. I have gotten invitations offering up to $30! Unfortunately I do not always qualify or respond before the survey closes.

I have also received invitations to apply for different elite online communities. One that I am currently waiting for approval pays in Amazon gift cards for participation.

So I would highly recommend joining this site in addition to inviting others to join. It has the potential of paying good money.

You can go HERE to join Survey Savvy!
