Survey Exchange

Survey Exchange no longer has a referral program, but they are still a great survey company. Cash out is as low as $5. To create an account, go to www.surveyexchange.com.

Harris Poll

For prizes, instead of money, check out www.harrispollonline.com. You can win everything from magazine subscriptions to vacuums, depending on how long you allow your points to accumulate. This is one of the few sites that I qualify for almost every single survey sent to me. The prizes occassionally change so if you don't see anything you like, simply let your points accumulate until something you want comes up. The prizes make great gifts too so start thinking about your Christmas list and see if there is something one of your friends would like.

Global Opinion Panels - Synovate

This is another great survey site. You can sign up your spouse to receive surveys too through your account. To learn more, check out www.synovate.net. If you would like a referral, email me at light52 at yahoo dot com. Global Opinion Panels is another points based survey company and cash out is as low as $5.

Global Test Market

This is one of the easiest sites to earn cash from. Cash out is at $50. Even if you do not qualify for a survey, you receive points simply for trying. I have earned cash out levels very quickly on this site compared to others. Visit www.globaltestmarket.com to learn more. For a referral, email me at light52b at hotmail dot com.

Surveys

Surveys are my favorite way to earn money because it is easy and I love to give my opinion. As with just about everything on this blog, I suggest you set up a secondary email just for surveys. I use gmail, yahoo, and hotmail for everything. I like to send my surveys to one address and split the rest between the others. I know some people who make $600 a month doing surveys alone. I work in the marketing industry so I don't qualify for many surveys, but decent money can be made from surveys.

My best tip for this category is to take all of the short surveys on each site that tell more about you. You will receive a ton more surveys just for taking the few minutes to do this. Moms and pregnant women tend to get more because this is a highly sought after demographic.
