Great Tips for Maximizing Your Online Paid Survey Income

Paid surveys are a terrific way to supplement your income and earn prizes, including gift cards, electronics, small appliances and other items. However, not everyone knows how to maximize their income from surveys.

No matter what job you select, it always helps to do the job in such a way as to make your income as large as possible. Paying surveys are a good base upon which to build your income potential. How can you complete surveys in a way that will make your income levels as high as possible? There are several methods that will improve the way you do the surveys, making them accurate and easy to complete. After all if you can complete more surveys, your income will go up. Take advantage of these tips for making the best of your time in completing surveys.

Read the Instructions


First and foremost to be successful in the business of completing paying surveys, you must make certain that you know and understand what it is that you are asking. To this end, read every word of the instructions. Don't make the assumption that because a specific survey looks very similar to another one you have taken, that you don't need to make certain you read and understand the instructions on how to complete the survey questioning points. If you don't take the time to read the instructions, you may be answering that was not asked.

Quantity

When you find a good paid survey list, sign up for every possible program that you are qualified for. The more programs you are signed up for, obviously, the more surveys you will receive! Simple as that. Also, keep an eye out for new survey programs and sign up for those too.

Pick Products You Know

When you are selecting the paying surveys that you are interested in, be sure to attempt to find questionnaires for completing that are related to products you know about or have personally used. You will be more efficient in completing the surveys than if you are choosing surveys that are about products you really don't know too much about. It is likely to take less time to document that you know if you are familiar with the color, shape, performance and other factors of the products.

Referrals

Many paid survey programs will offer you the opportunity to refer your family or friends to their program. Often, you'll get points, contest entries or some other type of reward for doing this. You may even get rewarded for any family or friends that they refer! So get referring! This is one of the best ways to increase the rewards you receive from paid surveys!

Reduce your Expenses

Another way to increase the level of income that you receive from completing paying surveys is to reduce the level of your household expenses. If you use surveys as your major method of providing additional income for your family, you can eliminate the need for transporting yourself to a second job. Perhaps you can even eliminate the need for a second automobile. When you work from your home completing surveys, you won't be required to pay for child care or expensive lunches. Your work clothing may be less expensive to acquire and maintain when you have a work at home wardrobe. You can just make more efficient use of your work time so that you get more done with less time spent on the job.

Great Tips for Maximizing Your Online Paid Survey Income - Part-2

Part-2

Find more Surveys

When you get more done in less time by the use of paying surveys, you have effectively created the ability to get paid more per hour of work effort. This is an easy and efficient way of increasing your income level. You don't have to wait for a stingy boss to recognize your efforts and agree to give you a raise. No more waiting for the Christmas bonus in order to pay for Christmas for your family. Instead, you just sign up for more surveys, complete them efficiently and wait for the payment to arrive.

Reliable Email

This is such an obvious thing, but so many email addresses, especially free email addresses from Hotmail or Yahoo, are not very reliable or have bulk or junk mail filters that may prevent you from receiving survey emails to your inbox. You'll want to be sure that you have a working, reliable email address and that you can receive emails from the survey programs without a problem. You may need to delve into your junk/spam folder to fish out those emails at first and then mark them as not spam or add the domain of the program to your white list or safe senders list. The process of doing this differs with every ISP and email account, so refer to the help or tech support area of your email provider's website.

Family & Pets

When you sign up for a program, they will likely ask you who lives in your household or if you have any children or pets. Be sure to disclose all the other members of your family, including all children, all the pets you have and even any adult friends that may live with you. For every other human or animal in your household that you have, this will further increase chances of you qualifying for, and therefore, receiving a survey. So, remember to disclose everyone in your household!

Accurate Contact Information

You'll also want to make sure that the contact information you give to the survey programs when you sign up is accurate. They need this information to send you surveys, any products for testing and, most importantly, your cash or other rewards! Keep the information up to date as well. It's such a simple thing, but so easily overlooked!

Take Every Survey They Send

Some survey programs will take note if you are taking all or most of your surveys and may increase the amount of surveys they send to you. So take every survey they send, if you can.

Be Prompt

Lots of surveys are time specific, where they may expire by a certain day or reach their quota very quickly. Check your email often, preferably once a day, and take the surveys as soon as you receive them, if at all possible. Don't assume you can save a survey until later or next week, as the survey may not be available anymore.

Computer Updates
Many surveys require a certain program to be installed on your computer to work properly. The most often required programs are Flash and Java. You should make sure your computer is updated with the latest versions of both programs, so you won't have to download and install any software later on for surveys that require them. Java should be updated when you run Windows Update on your computer, but Flash may need to be downloaded and installed if you don't have it. You can download Flash from Adobe.com.

Helpful Programs

Use auto form fillers such as the one included in the Google Toolbar and Wavget.com's TypeItIn to more quickly fill in your contact and address information when signing up for paid surveys and for surveys that require you to fill in this information again or separately. These programs can save you a lot of time.

Using these tips, you should be able to get the most out of the time you invest in survey taking! Good luck!
