The data collected about the paid surveys says that only about 20% of the survey opportunities offer on the internet are legitimate. The others are there to make some quick money and then disappear. This means that if you come across 5 paid survey sites or offers, only one of them is legitimate and genuine. But you need not be scared.
This does not mean that I am trying to scare you away from getting into the online paid surveys and refraining you from availing the opportunity. I have also come across many people who are earning decent amount from these surveys. All they have to do is just open the mail box and avail the survey opportunity they are offered.
You seem to be ready to join one now. But wait! Before you join a survey site or a panel, make sure the one you chose is a legitimate paid survey company. You might find it difficult to decide if you are new to this field because there are several devious websites filled of lies. They are just trying to tempt you into paying the membership fee – and then forget it. Some of them change their web name frequently, as one can get a new domain name for only $7. Along with that, the remove previous references or reviews sent to them.
Moreover, if there is any warning sign mentioned at some other place, the link will become invalid.
Even then, there is a ray of hope. I have experienced a lot of legit survey sites and am aware of the tactics adopted by the scam ones. I would be honored if someone could benefit from my experience and earn some extra cash. All am trying to do is to help keep you from getting deceived and letting you reap the benefits of this ever-growing industry.
All you have to do is a little bit of research into the previews regarding the site you are testing. Just enter the site title into a search engine, click search, and start reading. I am sure, in a little time, you will be feeling much more confident about what to do. I have already done that and that is why I am writing these words.
