Can anyone do paid surveys? Any country?
Most paid online surveys require that you are at least 18 years of age, but other than that there are no specific requirements. You do not need any special qualifications or skills.

Paid online surveys are NOT limited to U.S. residents – Companies like PaidSurveysOnline and SurveyScout offer paid survey opportunities worldwide.

What do online paid surveys look like?
Paid online surveys are generally made up of anywhere from 20-50 questions. Sometimes the paid surveys are multiple-choice and sometimes the surveys have space for you to add your personal comments, etc. In general, the more time it is expected to take to complete the survey, the more you get paid.

Is there a fee to do paid surveys?
Reputable surveys companies charge a small “once only” registration fee, and there is a very good reason for this. The hardest part with surveys is finding and sorting through all the research programs out there. A good survey company will do this for you as part of the registration fee. They will also scrutinizes for "scams", because some surveys don't pay as promised. Whereas, less reputable companies may bombard you with advertising and their telemarketers start calling you. The small "once only" registration fee is a small price to pay for a reputable survey company to scrutinize and recommend surveys online. Besides, it will save you hours of ongoing work.

After registration, a good survey company will give you instant access to their private "members-only" area. As an example, with Survey Scout you get unlimited access to their database of 450+ of the very best paid survey opportunities... and they update it regularly.

How do paid survey companies compare?
What should you look for?
Pick only online survey companies that use ClickBank and/or PayPal to process their orders. These two processors are, quite possibly, the Internet's largest and most prestigious payment processors.

These huge companies (PayPal is owned by eBay!) only process orders for legitimate websites - not fly-by-night companies and rip-off artists.

What other online jobs are available?
Explain how paid focus groups work.
Online jobs are many and varied. Some online jobs, like paid opinion surveys, can be done from home on the Internet. Other online jobs simply originate online and involve outside activities like mystery shopping, paid focus groups and even driving a vehicle covered with advertising. You’ll see some of these online jobs featured in the left-hand column.

Paid focus groups are among the online jobs on offer. A "Focus Group" is a group of individuals selected and assembled by researchers to discuss and comment on, from personal experience, the topic that is the subject of the research. Just like with paid opinion surveys, you simply share your opinions and discuss them with others.

Paid focus groups are often held online via special communication or chat systems, but they take place in the "real" world too. Most paid survey sites offer opportunities to participate in focus groups paying as much as $150 per hour.
