Paid Survey Sites

Most paid survey sites are scams. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT pay to become a member of a paid survey site. Even ones that are reputable, like surveyscout.com, aren't worth it. Why? Because it will take you months to earn back the money you invest, and that's only if you are diligent about doing surveys. If you lose interest quickly (which I have been known to do) you lost money instead of making it. Here are a list of free survey sites that I have used and profited from, in order of preference:

1. SurveySavvy.com
2. globaltestmarket.com
3. greenfieldonline.com
4. fusioncash.com
5. cashcrate.com
6. mysurvey.com
7. harrispoleonline.com
8. e-rewards.com (in conjunction with Delta Skymiles or Blockbuster)

It depends on what you're looking for, of course, because each site is different in the way they dole out payments or rewards. E-rewards, for example, doesn't pay in cash...this means that they can offer $5-$25 per survey that you will never see, but will be able to use for rewards. Others, like greenfieldonline.com, lean heavily on Sweepstake entries, but also offer cold hard cash as a reward. The rule of thumb is generally that if a reward sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
