Australian Survey Sites

PTCBox

Adam — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 09:32:37 +0000

PTCBox has just recently launched but the compnay behind the site has involved in the get paid industry for over 10 years. PTCBox is not just a survey site, they have the usual daily surveys but they also have a paid to signup area, where you can get paid to signup and trial both free services and websites but also paid trials of various products, you can expect to see a number of various services to trial, such as sites like RSVP and services like Netflix and many others.

As good as the surveys and the get paid to signup sounds, they also have a PTC or Paid to Click section where you simply click on an advertisers banner and visit their website, you can get paid up to 10 cents for each ad you click and site visit.

Not only that it also has a very attractive referral system that can help boost your earnings considerably, simply invite your friends and family or if you have your own site or blog put a couple of referral links up and get paid a % commission of what your referral makes. This site is highly recommended by myself and I only have it this low in my top sites list purely because it isn’t a straight forward survey site, how ever the added earnings features, such as the paid to click, make this a very profitable site and a must join.

Email88

Adam — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 07:07:39 +0000

Email88 isn’t a survey site but I think it is quite unique and is therefore worth a mention and seems to be an interesting way to possibly earn more money whilst at home. Once you signup to Email88 they will send out the occasional email to let you know that an ad is available to be viewed, you simply click the link and view the ad, this could be going to an advertisers website or simply watching a youtube video.

Sounds easy so far huh? Well it is, that is pretty much all there is to Email88, except one small thing, the 8th, 88th, 888th and 8888th people to clcik and view the ad all win $100 each. Once you have viewed the ad you will then be able to view a counter that lets you know what posistion you are in and everybody gets 2 clicks per ad, so if you miss out the first time, you can see where you are in the queue and choose your time to click and view the ad for the second time.

If you are one of the 4 lucky people for each ad your $100 prize will be sent to you via cheque. I like this site as it is very simple and if you don’t have much time you simply click and view and ad or 2 rather then with surveys where you may have to be at your computer filling it in for 15 minutes.

Your Opinion

Adam — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 06:24:06 +0000

Let companies know exactly what you think
… and get paid for it.

At YourOpinion you will be rewarded for taking part in online market research surveys. And for every survey you complete you will be entered into our regular $1,000 cash giveaway!!

You will also get the chance to participate in Product Sampling studies and earn up to $80 for Online Communities. It’s free, fast and easy to join – so what are you waiting for…Have Your Say Now!

There is some very good things that I personally like about Your Opinion and that is the cash out option, either paypal or you can get a prepaid eftpos card loaded with your eearnings from Your Opinion. Not only do you have the usual surveys that you can make money from but they also claim that you can have the opportunity to participate in focus groups and earn up to $80 per group, that is not bad going in my book. Another great way to earn some extra money is with Your Opinion’s referral program, invite your friends and family to join and you get $5.00 for each referral that joins the site and completes one survey, get 20 people to join and that’s an easy $100 extra in your pocket.

On top of all this just for joining Your Opinion you go into the quarterly draw to win either $1,000 or a MacBook Air, so even if you never do a single survey you still go into the draw just for joining up which I think is a pretty good deal.

My Survey

Adam — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 08:48:46 +0000

Formerly known as Lightspeed surveys, Mysurveys is one of the leaders in market research and paid online surveys in Australia. Numerous survey opportunities and from time to time, invites to focus groups and or product sampling. Very easy to earn money from and the reward per survey isn’t too bad, surveys pay points and you can generally expect the equivilant of $1 to $2 per survey and sometimes up to $5. You can choose to either redeem your points for a paypal payment or for gift vouchers from some major retailers, such as JB HiFi, Woolworths, Myer, Eb Games and more.

Just by joining you go into the quarterly prize draw valued at $2500, so even if you join and decide that doing surveys online is not for you, you still have a chance at taking out the prize draw, with a prize in value of up to $2,500 or simply go for the cash of $2,000.

It’s your choice if you win.
•$2,500 JB Hi Fi voucher;
•$2,500 Dan Murphy’s voucher (NB: please note this option is NOT available to residents of NT or NSW);
•$2,500 adrenalin.com.au voucher;
•$2,500 BBQ Galore voucher;
•$2,500 Baby’s Galore voucher;
•$2,500 Flight Centre voucher;
•$2,500 Harvey Norman voucher; or
•$2,000 cash.

Mysurvey is one of those sites that seems to always have a survey available and whilst they will send you an email to let you know that there is an online survey waiting for you, I find it is preferable and more profitable to login to the site yourself and see what they have waiting to be completed.

Rewards Central

Adam — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:39:11 +0000

Rewards Central, up until recently was known as Email Cash, since the name change, they have split into 2 sites, My Opinions and Rewards Central, My Opinions handles all the surveys and Rewards Central offers cash back shopping, get paid to visit advertisers websites, quick questions that pay a couple of points and a few other features that help you to generate points quickly. The good thing about Rewards Central is that you can transfer your points from My Opinions into your Rewards Central account and bank them, which will pay you an interest bonus.

This may sound a bit involved but you will soon find out just how quickly and easy it is to reach payment particularly if you are a member of both sites, so if you haven’t already, join My Opinions first and then come back and join Rewards Central, trust me when I say you will be very pleased that you did.

Paid Surveys – Why They Exist and How You Can Benefit From Them

coder — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 03:02:42 +0000

Paid surveys have existed for many years, even before the internet existed. Today, they are very popular. There are literally thousands of companies who simply produce and distribute paid surveys for clients, and there are millions of people who take said surveys. You too can benefit from paid surveys, regardless of your age, gender, race, etc.

If you’re wondering why someone would ever pay you to take a simple survey, you should understand that for massive corporations like Pepsico, Woolworths, etc. it’s all about knowledge and demographical data. Large companies want to know how their products are seen in the eyes of the average person, so that they can make changes, market to the right crowd, etc. And while it may seem like a lot of money to spend on research, the knowledge gained by these companies is in most cases much more valuable than the actual cost.

Large corporations will also put out surveys about products or services that don’t yet exist, or that are not offered yet by said company. This allows them to gather information and feedback from people all around the world, of all different mindsets, ages, etc. about their product, before they even start full-scale production. This knowledge is priceless to these companies, because it lets them make last-minute changes to their products before the official launch.

There are a number of ways you can benefit from paid online surveys. The first and most obvious way is the monetary reward you will receive. The amount of money you are given for completing a survey will vary widely, but it’s usually in the range of $1-$5 for a short survey (they rarely take more than 30 minutes). There will be the occasional $5-$10+ survey, and every once in a while you will be invited to take a more difficult survey, or even an at-home product evaluation (they mail you a product and you review it). These more difficult surveys often pay much more, and many product tests allow you to keep the product you received, free of charge.

Besides the money, surveys will also educate you on the products of tomorrow. You will receive information about new products – including movies, electronics, cars, and virtually everything else – before they are even announced to the public. Plus, you are given the opportunity to significantly change the way a product will be made. Your opinion DOES matter – so much that many companies are willing to pay good money for it.

Global Test Market

Adam — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 23:54:35 +0000

Global Test Market is one of the long-time players in the online survey field, and is very trusted and legitimate. They have a wide variety of surveys available on a regular basis, and their payouts are fair and often generous. If you’re looking to add another survey site to your list, Global Test Market is definitely a good choice.

Surveys through GTM are given a value not in cash, but in “MarketPoints”. These points are awarded whenever a paid survey is completed, or a profile is filled out. Each point is worth $0.05 USD, and there is a minimum payout of 1000 MarketPoints, or $50. Every survey is different, but most award you with 20-50 MarketPoints. One unique thing about GTM is that you will be paid whether you actually qualify for a survey or not. If a survey is begun and not finished due to disqualification, you will still be given points. You won’t get as much, obviously, but it’s nice to get something for your efforts.

While there is generally a fair amount of surveys available through GTM on a regular basis, it can be hard to qualify for a lot of them. There is a lot of surveys looking for very specific people, so don’t expect to qualify for the majority of surveys you start. Thankfully you will still be compensated for your time.

The GTM interface is simple and functional. There’s no “fluff” or unnecessary information, and everything is where it should be. The site is very easy to navigate, even for those who are inexperienced with computers.

Many survey sites have sweepstakes or special raffles, but GTM is unique in that they offer both monthly and daily sweepstakes, so there is a much better chance of winning. There is a $300 daily prize and a $5,000 monthly prize.Every time you complete a survey you will recieve 3 sweepstakes entries, and every time you start a survey but don’t finish you will be rewared with 1 entry, so there are plenty of chances to win!

How to Find Legitimate Online Survey Sites

coder — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 22:24:34 +0000

Like nearly every other industry in the world, there are scams in the survey industry. Usually these scams are easy to detect, but sometimes a good paying site will take a turn for the worse and stop paying. This article will help you find legitimate online survey sites and avoid scams.

First of all, you should watch out for any site that offers rediculous rewards. Generally speaking, online surveys will not make you rich, and any company that claims otherwise is most likely a scam. Legitimate online survey sites generally offer $1-$20 per survey, though there will occasionally be a $50+ one. However, if a company consistantly offers very large rewards for easy surveys, you should take note and perhaps stop taking surveys until you have confirmed that they do indeed pay.

A good way to find legitimate online survey sites is to ask around, or to look on websites such as this one. All the survey sites listed on this website are completely legitimate and have been paying for many years, so this is a good place to start. If you’re hungry for more, ask your friends, or head to a popular make money online forum and ask. You can also use sites such as Yahoo! Answers to gain more knowledge.

Keep in mind that there are several different types of scams on survey sites. There are the sites that make you do surveys and then never pay you, and there are sites that actually require you to pay just for the opportunity to take the surveys! I strongly advice that you never, ever pay for a survey opportunity. You should be MAKING money, not spending it!

Other than that, simply use your better judgment. Keep an eye out for flaws/unprofessionalism on the websites themselves, and don’t assume you will be paid by a company that’s not well known. There are plenty of completely legitimate online survey sites out there, it’s just a matter of finding them!
