Has anyone ever made any money doing online surveys? Need some advice!!

[godsservant00]

I've seen so many websites that offer money but not sure yet who to sign up with so wanted to ask around first.  I'm a stay at home mom also and need desperately to make  some extra cash even if it's just a little bit!  I'm making some money right now off of a website reading ads but just wating for a check next month to see if it really works.  So if anyone's tried it and has made some money doing it, would really love to hear where!  Thanks so much!

Jan. 12, 2007 at 10:42 AM I am signed up with a whole bunch of survey sites, but I don't make a lot of money from any of them....I do get free products, and entered in a lot of monthly drawings, and the occasional $5 or $10 check.

Jan. 12, 2007 at 12:03 PM I have tried a few websites, and quickly learned that you have to be very careful. READ EVERYTHING! I had heard about one, signed up to do it, paid the fee and when you actually are allowed in to the site, i found out that all i was paying for was for them to give me a list of OTHER sites to sign up with to take surveys or read ad's, and over half of them dont pay anything. They just enter you in to their grand prize drawings, and occasionaly i will recieve a freebe in the mail. i just found a site called http://4ourfamily.themomteam.com    i JUST filled out the form to recieve more information yesterday evening so I haven't heard anything yet. but maybe it will work. if you want, go check it out. Good Luck!!!

Jan. 12, 2007 at 12:19 PM I do several  I've never paid them anything to do it.  I do get free products and earn pints that can be redeemed for cash or items.  It's not much, but I enjoy them.

Jan. 13, 2007 at 11:15 AM I never pay for survey sites......asking for money is a sure sign they are NOT on the level, IMO.   Check out http://freepaidsurveys.net/ for a huge list of survey sites.....I am signed up on a ton of them, and got about 20 surveys in my email already today!  LOL

Jan. 15, 2007 at 7:52 PM Thanks ladies!  I will keep looking!  I've signed up already for some of the survey sites but a little afraid to sign up for too many but if I find anything I will let everyone know.  Like I said before there is one site that I'm hoping is a somewhat of a "little money maker" lol, since anykind of extra money comes in hand!  Has anyone  heard of it?  Hits4pay?  Well so far I've got 28.00 in my account.  They send out a check at the first of the month if you've got 25.00 or more.  If not they just roll it over to the next month.  I've realized though the real money maker is getting others to sign up.  So, once I realized that my account is adding up alot faster so I've got just a couple friends and family members to sign up, I've got 7 people signed up already.  So the point is, so far looks good and am waiting for a check next month and will let you all know so you can sign up too!  If you want to sign up now or just look & read around about it on the site here's where to sign up.  If not I will let you know when I get my check to see if it works!  http://hits4pay.com/members/index.cgi?godsservant00

You all sound like me 4 months ago!  Have any of you heard of Arbonne?  It's a Swiss health and wellness company with herbal and botanical philosophies - I stay at home with my two little ones and work about 10 hours per week, just having playdates and networking with other moms.  I've been doing this business since October and I've already been promoted into management - as corny as it sounds, for the first time my family and I are starting to DREAM!  You don't have to keep any inventory like so many other companies, you don't have to do parties, and our company car is a white Mercedes!  Don't get me wrong, this is NOT a 'get-rich-quick' scheme - it takes work and a commitment but the payoff is beyond my wildest dreams.

Anyway, my website is www.bodymindsoul.myarbonne.com - no pressure at all, it's just that I have been so blessed by this opportunity that I instinctively tell everyone I know about it!

First, I found chacha.com. I am now a master guide, with an awesome network, and I make between $20-40 a day!!!! It took alot of work to get everything going right, but now, I hardly search myself! My network provides most of my income! I worked on this about 4-5 hours/day 3-4 days a week to get this going...but now I search about 1-2 hours 5 days a week..the rest comes from the people that I sponsored

Second, I found some really good READ EMAILS FOR CASH sites. You need to be very careful when looking for these sites. You need to look at the minimun payout amount. That is where some of these companies get you! If there payout is really high....I dont recammend them! Also, the referrals on these programs are GOLDEN!!!! Take your referral link and post it with a brief summary or a banner on your myspace, cafe moms page, any forums that allow it! It really adds up. I make about $2/day on each of these comanies. But 10 companies, $2/day= $600/month!!!! Again, my referrals play a big part of this income. I get a percentage which is very low of what they read too, but the real money comes in when they recieve a check...then I get $/referral for EACH company! That rocks....I just started having that income about a month ago on top of the $2/day I was already making. IF you are worried about crowding your email withthe paid emails....I suggest setting up a special free email account from this...use yahoo or hotmail....That is what I did. Here are the companies I use that have small minimun payouts and GREAT referral bonuses! And I HAVE RECIEVED CHECKS FROM ALL OF THESE COMPANIES!!!!!
Links are listed in my blog.

I decided to test something out and it worked out rather well. I never tried to surveys cuz you have to invest money to make money. Well, now that I have been making a good income, I took $20 and got a Visa gift card. I used it to complete offers in the companies I already belong to...mostly mediadollars- for the $20 I spent and used to order trials and such- I got $185 in return on that $20. NOW- I will get a new card- THIS IS IMPORTANT SO THAT THE TRIALS YOU SIGNED UP FOR CANNOT BILL YOU CREDIT CARD FOR ANY SUBSCRIPTIONS you didnt cancel- That is where they get you!!!! So now....I am actually gonna pick up a $100 gift card and see what I can make with this-

Third, I post to a few forums for cash! This is really neat too! Any topics you choose! You get paid to start discussions, paid to reply to discussions, and ONCE AGAIN...the referral program is GOLDEN here too! I have recieved payment from the first two listed here, the third I have not hit the payout of $10 yet. I just started it! The first one pays the best.$5 to start off with, 5 cents per post AND replies, plus $1/referrals- WHEN THEY SIGN UP- not when they get paid!!!!!!! AND YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE from your other post to this forum!!!!
Links listed in my blog

Those are my secrets! I make good money each week! Right now I am averaging $425/week. I advertise soley on forums, myspace, and cafemoms and anywhere I see that is FREE. And my results have been FABULOUS!!!!

Let me know if you have any questions. Im always glad to help people that dont want to use those ripoff affiliate companies to scam others to make money! I dont get down like that! LOL You will find NO PAY to join links on my page!!!!
