Esearch.com Company Background

Esearch.com, Inc. has been in the on-line market research arena since 1995. They collect panelists opinions on many topics ranging from food items to political scandals, and many types of products and services in-between. Esearch.com is a member of the the Market Research Association (MRA) and American Marketing Association (AMA) and fully complies with Council of American Survey Research Organizations (CASRO) guidelines for online data collection and panelist privacy.

Program Details and Our Suggestions

Getting Started. You must first complete a one-page sign up form, where you submit your name, email address, and quick 27 question demographic background form.  If you do not already have a PayPal account, be sure to sign up for an account, since this is how Esearch delivers their cash rewards.

What to expect? Esearch.com pays well, but they do not usually send out more than one survey invitation per month. They do this in an effort to discourage professional survey takers, and to ensure quality feedback for their clients. Also, Esearch.com makes every effort to ensure that you spent the proper amount of time and effort to complete their surveys correctly, and if they find that you don't you may not be compensated for taking the survey. Still, if you follow the rules, and answer the surveys honestly, Esearch.com has good earning potential, and does not require very much time.

Our Advice: You usually only get one to two survey invitations per month, so our advice is to take all of the surveys Esearch sends your way. Be sure to take your time and answer them correctly! They have a very strict policy on panel member's that just try to rush through surveys for the money. They pay well for their surveys, so if you make an effort to do them correctly, you can make a 5 to 10 dollars for less than 20 minutes time. Here is an example of a $10 PayPal payment I received for competing an IT survey.
