An Excellent Survey Broker = Excellent Survey Pay

4,480,000. No, this is not the number of Dollars, Pounds or Euros you can earn each year taking online surveys (although the odd survey broker might have you believe this!) but the number of pages Google returns with the search term "paid surveys".

This article looks into the world of paid surveys and asks "Is it possible to earn a decent income from online surveys?"

The answer to this question is certainly "yes" it is possible to earn a decent income taking paid online surveys sitting at home in front of the tele or with the radio on. I started taking paid surveys online over a year ago. I don't work 9-5 and I often don't work 5 days a week. I also get the enormous satisfaction that 99% of the population will never know in being my own boss.

How much money can you earn from online surveys?

Online surveys can pay anywhere from between $2-$75 and most can be completed in around 10-20 minutes.

How do I know which survey broker to sign up with?

As can be seen from the figure given at the start of this article, there are numerous survey providers. They all charge a small fee and in return they provide access to a whole host of companies on their database. What you need to do is make sure the survey broker offers a money back guarantee, just in case you find it's not for you. The cost varies from $20 to $80 to join these. Some have a monthly membership fee but I would go for the one time payment providers. They should give you a list of companies that offer surveys and give you instructions to help you. Also, make sure they can offer you surveys for whatever country you are in. There are more surveys for USA.

You then decide which surveys you want to do and most of the sites will ask for your likes and interests so that you are not required to complete surveys for products and services which are of no interest to you.

Survey brokers will also provide you with the opportunity to test products which will be sent to you at no cost and which you can nearly always keep. The are also focus group opportunities which can pay anything from between $50-$300 per hour and are therefore extremely lucrative.

There are many review sites that are definitely worth looking at if you are considering signing up to for paid surveys. It is also essential to consider a few different providers. The most important consideration is to find a survey provider that can list a number of legitimate companies that pay you to take these surveys. In the online survey industry it is crucial to sign up only with survey sites you can trust as there are a lot of scam sites out there.

If you are serious about earning a good income as your own boss from the comfort of your own home then your starting point must be a survey broker review site which will recommend a number of legitimate paid survey sites.
