Is Taking Online Surveys A Legitimate Way To Earn Extra Income?

One question that many people have is whether taking online surveys is a legitimate way to earn extra income. I'm not really sure why this question keeps coming up because people have been taking surveys and making money for years now.

One big difference is you can now do it from the comfort of your own home. You will never get rich taking surveys online; however you can supplement your income and set your own schedule which is a big benefit.

I personally have seen people earn hundreds of dollars taking surveys every month. I've also seen copies of checks of people who've earned over $1000. Generally these people are doing a combination of taking surveys and getting paid to refer new survey members.

This is a big key point that you should understand. Many survey companies you can join for free will also pay you to recruit new members.

This is an excellent way to make money without actually taking surveys. In essence you are earning your money as a survey recruiter and not a survey taker.

The one question that people do have is why should I pay for information on companies needing survey takers? Some of the best surveys available you are not going to find on the free survey sites.

These companies charge for their information because they have to spend time keeping their database up to date. It's only fair for them to charge a fee and you have to determine whether you want to pay that or not.

The amount of money you will make taking online surveys will vary from one survey to another. From an hourly rate standpoint you may not make out particularly well depending on what surveys you choose.

However the benefit here is you can do it from home on your own computer. You can also set your own schedule and work whenever you want so you don't have a boss telling you what to do.

These are just a few pieces of information on why taking online surveys is a legitimate way to earn extra income. Plenty of people do it and so can you if you want to.

Re: New Video - Should I Get A Job Or Start A Business? - Hi Evan, I was curious to know what you'd suggest and I think you gave excellent advice. Taking a year out to try and start your own business is a great idea. Taking a year out after college is a well established option so I guess it doesn't prejudice your chances of getting a job should you wish to do so later on; it probably improves your chances if you've been getting valuable experience of managing a business and of course, if all goes well, you won't need to find out. Definitely a video for my website. Thanks! David
Re: What are your success criteria? - [quote="DwayneGarrett":1igrdgib]Out of curiousity, what has to be present for you to know that your business is a success? The top three things for me are: 1. Maintaining a 6 figure income year in and year out. 2. Creating and promoting my own products. 3. Income not solely dependent upon my personal effort. How about yours?[/quote:1igrdgib] I would have to say mine were: 1. Monthly Residual Income that exceeds all expenses by 110% 2. Free time to create and promote my own products (relies on #1) 3. 5% of all revenues generated by my team going to feed starving kids Now that is "feel good work".
