Free Paid Online Surveys - Is it Worth Your Time?

By Micheal Bowler

Free paid online surveys are very plentiful these days. Do a Google search if you don't believe me. There are thousands of companies that offer huge databases of free survey offers that anyone can complete in their spare time. The problem is that internet marketers hype the survey scene up way too much.
The truth is that you aren't going to earn $5-$75 per survey completion. No company in their right mind would pay you that much for your opinion regardless of what the so called membership survey sites tell you.
This is the way it goes with online surveys these days. If you pay a membership fee to a survey site you are just throwing away you money because that kind of information is given away for free all over the net.
The problem with free paid online surveys is that most surveys take anywhere from 15 minutes to a half hour. with a payout of most likely around a dollar per survey. You can go out and get a minimum wage job and earn double if not triple of what you would make taking surveys.
Don't get me wrong here. If you spend a lot of time online and would like to earn 5 or 6 extra dollars while browsing the net by all means feel free. It just isn't possible to make a living taking free paid online surveys. Fortunately for us there are other means of creating an income from home. Most of them require a little bit more skill that simply answering questions but at least we are making progress.
