Wham or Scam

After the boring and long winded process of signing up for as many survey sites as possible, they have started rolling in. They vary between 5 and 35 minutes long, and the compensation reflects that. They sometimes require some thought in the answers, which I not easy when you’ve been at work all day, but its still money in the end.

I have received and participated in a number of surveys from a particular site that was not listed on the list I bought. I think I have completed about 4 surveys of about £1.30 each. I can’t be sure how much I have earned because the earnings don’t show up until about 14 days later. It’s a start and they seem to send them regularly. This could be a goodun!

Yes, it’s tedious to sign up for the damn things, and it’s tedious to wait for them to send you a survey to complete. So, sign up for paid emails while you wait.

The master site has a list of paid email sites as well. Signing up for them is easy and quick. You get the emails alright, too many to complete (and I signed up for two) but as I said, it keeps you busy until the surveys come in.

Well, surprise, surprise. Nothing has been sold on this website as of yet. I have put in place an advertising campaign on AdWords but it is too expensive at the moment (I can’t get a click price for lower than 25p per keyword). I am going to try another advertiser and see where that leads us.

I have looked a Mirago and they seem alright. I have to limit the amount of money I spend on the campaign. I have used them before and they do deliver, however, the money soon runs out.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

Well, sort of. I got an email from one of the sites. They have already given me 40 points for signing up with them (15 points = £1.00) and sent me a personal survey worth 20 points that took about 5 minutes to complete. It was a survey about me and my interest. It will allow them to see what surveys I am most suited to. So, I now have 60 points which equals about £4.00, not bad I suppose.

I really should have timed how long it took to take the surveys. That would have given me a better idea of how worth while these surveys are in terms of payment-per-hour.
