SurveySpot Review by LapisLee

by LapisLee on October 21, 2009

Survey Spot is the absolute best survey site I have found since I started taking paid online surveys in January 2008. They rank 1st with $422.80 earned and $419.80 received. SurveySpot has a very straightforward cash system, where they send emails that clearly state how much you will earn and how long it will take [...]

by LapisLee on August 29, 2009

ELITE Opinion, the business survey division of Lightspeed research, is strictly for those who make purchasing decisions or have influence over purchasing decisions of products and services at their place of work. Since I own a small business, The Lapis Connection, I have complete control over all of these types of decisions, but since my [...]

The Socratic Forum Survey Panel Review

by LapisLee on July 12, 2009

The Socratic Forum is an excellent cash-based site that has earned me $71 since March 28, 2008 and which currently ranks 17th out of my top 25 survey sites.

Daily Survey Panel Review

by LapisLee on June 21, 2009

The Daily Survey Panel is an excellent points-based site that has earned me $95.75 since June 8, 2008 and which currently ranks 6th out of my top 25 survey sites. You can choose to have emails sent daily to your inbox, but I prefer to use a link on my browser and do these surveys [...]

Surveys that pay in gift certificates are slightly less desirable to me than either those that pay in cash or those that pay in cash for points, but as any good stockbroker will tell you, the key to investing soundly is to diversify your holdings, so I am a member of several of these sites. [...]

The second most lucrative type of survey sites are those that pay in points for cash. These sites are slightly less desirable to me because of the difficulty in determining the value of a point on different sites. In fact, this is the reason why they use a point system: to make you feel as [...]
