I have been surfing around the net lately looking at other sites similar to mine and personal websites that are hyping one program or another and I have come across a few sites that are discouraging people from joining paid survey sites. I think I am going to contact these webmasters and ask them what bad experience they had that would cause them to have this opinion because I have personally never had a problem with any of the paid survey programs I am in and advertise on my site. I have never had a problem reaching the payout level and have always gotten paid promptly whenever I have requested payment.
Maybe they made the mistake of joining one of the sites that make you pay for information on paid survey sites and they didn't come through, I don't know. I don't recommend anyone pay into these programs that say they will make you rich doing surveys if you only pay them $30, $50 or more for the "inside information". These sites are basically charging you for information that you can get for free if you just look for it. http://www.allwebsuccess.com/surveys.html will show you several programs you can join for free and you can email me for invitations from several more companies and they are all legitimate, free to join and they will pay you.
It's also a possibility that these "disgruntled" people actually bought into the hype that they could get rich taking surveys. You won't. You CAN make a few bucks for spending a little time now and then answering questions on your computer. Just last month I reached payout level on 3 survey companies and requested payments totaling over $45. Not a fortune by any means but it's easy money.
If any of you out there have had some sort of bad experience with paid surveys, give me a shout and let me know about it. I am always on the lookout for good information whether it be on a good program or on one to stay away from.
In the mean time, I'm going to keep taking surveys and keep cashing checks!

These types of offers involve a purchase or a shipping charge, after purchase you get a payment made to your account, most companies like this have a threshold of anywhere between $50 to $150 needed in your account before you get paid.
On My website http://www.corleysmonster.com I have catagorized all of my listings into the above types to save you some time.
2) GET ORGANIZED
Keep a notebook with lists of all companies you have applied to whether you were accepted or rejected (you may be able to reapply). Keep important information such as the site url, username and password, support email, invatation email(make sure that you add this address to your email address book so your invatations dont bounce off as spam),how you get paid (do you need a paypal acct ect), and credit card information if a purchase is required.
3) PATIENCE PATIENCE PATIENCE
It takes time to signup and get into the companies database, get invatitions and get paid. Online surveys for profit is not an overnight enterprise, be prepaired to wait 3 months to see results in your bank account.
