There are many, many online survey and consumer opinion websites out there. Then you have the many sites listing all these survey and consumer opinion websites. Some of them will ask you to pay for access to their list and some sites offer a complete directory of survey programs for free.

Survey programs are a fantastic way to earn extra cash to pay for your gas or to get some nice prizes or gifts. There are many good programs out there, you just have to find them!

However, you should NEVER have to pay for access to lists of survey programs, nor should the survey programs ever ask you to pay to join them. This is a sign of a scam or a ripoff. Don’t fall for it! Legitimate survey and consumer opinion programs will never ask for money from you, the point of their programs is to pay YOU for your time and input! Not the other way around.

Make no mistake, you CAN earn extra money and prizes taking surveys. You cannot, however, make a living taking online surveys, this is a complete myth and a come on to get you to spend money on a “list” that you can get for free elsewhere.

When you see advertisements or spam that says you can make a living, or even hundreds or thousands of dollars in cash taking paid surveys, scroll past them and don’t fall for their hype! They just want your money in exchange for a worthless list.
