Essential Equipment

Now you will need a computer and Internet access, but that really is about the only expense you will be out in order to take online surveys and get paid for your effort. Each survey takes 5-15 minutes to complete, so these are not intense surveys with essay questions or anything! You will also need a checking account or Paypal account in order for the company to transfer money to you but some do offer to send a check for your services. Even if you had to invest in a new computer and pay for some high speed Internet access, it might cost you $500-$1500 to get started, depending on the quality of computer you get.

Skills and Experience

Basically, if you have some Internet experience and know how to use search engines to find the companies offering to pay you for taking these surveys, you have all the training and experience you need! Companies need market research to know what products to make and what improvements to make on existing products and they are willing to pay for this information!

Charges and Earnings

Depending on the complexity of the survey and the fees offered by the company, you can make anywhere from $1-20 per survey. Many companies produce 2 or more surveys per month and you can definitely become a regular online survey taker. The time investment comes in to play because you have to find the companies that are paying for taking the surveys, but once you build a good database of market research companies, the income should be steady. Depending on your dedication and time investment, you can easily make $200 or more per week in the first year. As your database grows, you can weed out the low paying sites and concentrate on more profitable surveys to make even more money.

Marketing

Well, all you really need to do is use a search engine and find these companies. Keep track of the ones that are decent and pay well so you can focus on them in the future. But rest assured, you need no resume and an interview will not be required!

Now you may never get rich taking online surveys, but there are few ways to make real money sitting at home just filling out questionnaires about your favorite hair care products, cars, etc.! Some sites will give you points and you must reach a certain number in order to get paid cash, but this is about the biggest annoyance. Just stay away from companies that want you to pay to search their database of companies offering these paid surveys-you can easily build your own database because all these companies are giving you for that fee is information that is out there for free anyway.
