SurveysPaid.com is a new website promising to give you access to the best and highest paying market research companies online. Their sales page promises that you can “Realistically earn a full time income from home.”
Surveys Paid also says that there are so many surveys out there for people to take, that there is actually a demand for survey takers. In fact, they imply there is such a demand for survey takers, that some people can actually be hired as full time survey takers.
For a discounted price of $34.00, (50% off the regular price of $68.00) you can be on your way toward being financially independent with SurveysPaid.com.
At least that is what Surveys Paid would like you to think. In reality, there is no such thing as being “hired” as a full time survey taker. Market research companies benefit from a random sampling of a specific demographic that they are targeting. Anyone who currently earns money taking online surveys will tell you the companies are incredibly specific in what they want, and you will not always fit that criteria.
People who already make money taking surveys could also tell you that you should never have to pay for access to online surveys. The best market research companies allow you to sign up for free, and tons of places have lists of reliable, respectable market research companies you can sign up with.
Finally, the payment page for SurveysPaid.com is not a secure payment page. This means that your information is at risk of being stolen and used for credit card fraud or identity theft.
The kind that pays you money...
The kind that gives you points you can redeem for prizes like gift cards...
The kind that enters your name in like a raffle for a chance to win some cash...
In other words, not all surveys pay you money. In fact, I would say most pay you in points that you can redeem for prizes and even cash when you've accumulated enough points.
Sites like Survey Paid are sites that put together a listing of places like research companies that "pay" people to complete surveys.
In essence what you are paying for is the convenience of what Survey Paid has done - put together the lists of survey sites. Survey Paid is NOT a survey site, or a research company.
If you do the "leg" work yourself, you can find the actual research companies that pay people to do surveys, participate in focus groups, etc... and work directly with them instead of relying on a third-party site to sell you the names - which is really what you paid for.
FYI: Many years ago, I did mystery shopping, focus groups, and surveys to pay the bills, so I have some experience in this area.
Good luck to all!

and not all surveys are scams,and clickbank is a place for those who want to promote other peoples products,and get paid for it, atleast they are trying something and not moaning about people who get scammed,we all get burnt, but there are some really good products that do help others out for all kinds of health issues and so forth.
Thats the best converting products from clickbank! things that will help others! no question about it!
The scam survey sites all look exactly the same, because they all use the same almost never-ending sales letter method with lots of promises of big money, fake testimonials and "limited period bonuses" to get you to sign up. They will always get you to enter your email before continuing with the sales pitch. If you don't buy, at least they have your email address. Expect to get spammed to death.
A tip: Always have an extra Yahoo. AOL, Hotmail or Gmail address handy that you wouldn't mind closing and use it if you aren't sure about giving out your email.
Legitimate companies look completely different, but even if you decide to join a number of them, the chances of actually making a living from them are minimal.
