Defining a paid survey site

One way of making extra money online or getting paid on line is by completing on-line surveys, or participating in focus group discussions. This online earning opportunity draws traffic from people aiming to earn money from home.

Why should one get paid for completing survey questionnaires?

“Product” companies engage and pay research firms/institutes (owning paid survey sites) to solicit opinions of
● current consumers on products,
● potential consumers on the new products, or
● potential consumers on the products that are yet to be developed.

The paid survey site owners collect the consumer data through on-line surveys. Therefore, these paid survey site owners are middlemen between product companies and consumers. The product companies pay the paid survey site owners for collecting and analyzing consumers’ opinions on products and services.

The paid survey site owners pay you --- the current consumer or potential consumer --- for answering the on-line survey questionnaires.

The rates for completing the survey questionnaire differ from each paid survey site owners.
