Get Paid to Surf the Internet

This is along the lines of all the money making schemes on the internet. Lump it in with the claims of Carleton Sheets to be able to make millions in real estate using someone else's money. "You can get paid to surf the internet!" If you see the previous words in an email or online banner ad, just keep on reading and do not click on any links. More than likely you will be taken to a site that promises you great payouts for reading email or surfing various sites and clicking on the banner ads.

After researching so many of the get rich quick or quit your job for this online marketing program sites I found one email reading site that sounded promising - Hits4Pay. You sign up for their program and by giving them your email address they will send you notifications that you have new Hits4Pay emails to read and get money for. Little did I know that the average email you read pays about five cents! Unless you participate in the offers in the email you would need to read 60 emails in an hour just to make three bucks!

What a waste of time just to get set up in the first place. They tell you that the way to really make money at this service you need to add affiliates under you that also read emails and you will then get a portion of the ad revenue they generate through their click thru services. To actually get paid on the emails you read you need to at least view their website while your account is being credited for your nickel.

Other ways to get paid to surf the internet include taking surveys that can pay from $0.50 to $12 each. The longer the survey the more you get paid. None of the survey websites I have seen will actually send you a check on a monthly basis. Almost all collect your earnings in an account that can be used to purchase from a set of prizes or merchandise offered by the sponsors of the website. E-Rewards seems to be the most legitimate of these kinds of companies. Based on the profile you enter when becoming a member, you will be sent survey invitations based on your preferences. Some of the surveys require prequalification questions and if you end up not qualifying they still will credit your account for a nominal amount between $.25 and $.75. Each survey tells you exactly what you can earn and that amount is generally deposited to your account within minutes of completing your survey.

Part of what makes e-Rewards so good is the type of awards you can redeem your e-Currency for. For as little as $10 you can get a year's subscription to several magazines. For larger amounts you can get gift cards or certificates for online merchants. One $25 gift certificate for FTD has no restrictions for a minimum purchase other than it has to be over $25 for the certificate to work.

Finding Good Survey Sites Can Be Easier Than You Think

Many of you are about ready to give up on finding good survey sites. I've seen so many people that think high paying places don't exist, so they just gave up on surveys all together. I hate seeing this happen, because if those people just changed how they "look" for good survey sites, they would have run into so many of the to playing places that they were missing out on before.

That's what I am about to share with you. I am going to give you the exact steps to take in oder to ensure you get directly to the absolute best paying places in existence. Better yet, there are only two very short steps to this process and it should only take you about 10 minutes to accomplish. That's nothing compared to the overwhelming amount of time you've spent looking for good survey sites in the past, right? With that said, let's start talking about the first step.

This part deals with our dear friends, search engines. They are nice, quick, helpful tools most of them time, right? Well, when it comes to getting lists of good survey sites, they are as useless as it gets. They never show up in their lists any more and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. The only thing search engines should be used for is to get a long list of places "not" to sign up to. That's not saying very much, though. Now we get to my very last tip, which will completely solve this problem: If you use the strength of a large forum, you will instantly find the most amazing places for doing surveys.

It might sound like a bold statement, but it's also true. Big forums hold onto so much honest information about surveys, which can be found in their archive section. The larger forums tend to take a lot of pride in keeping a well run ship. They delete any spam and any false info that people might leave. All you have to do is dive into those archives and go through some of the bigger topics about surveys. 100's of them should be there, so you will never be lost trying to find information about good survey sites. People are always chatting with others, sharing everything they know and everything they've learned about tons of various websites to do surveys.

You no longer have to spend days upon days just trying to find one or two good survey sites.
