Legitimate paid surveys list

by Coupons & Freebies Mom on November 24, 2009 · 1 comment

Legitimate paid surveys list: you can get paid to take surveys! I wanted to update our list of legitimate paid surveys since we have a lot of new readers. I have been doing paid online surveys since 2000. I can tell you there are many survey companies that are not legitimate. And I can tell you that there are many companies that ARE legitimate. These companies DO pay you cash or gift cards for taking surveys. Our survey income is a nice supplement to my husband’s income as an engineer. Taking paid surveys helps me to be able to be a stay at home mom, which I love. If you are serious about making extra money from paid surveys, you need to sign up for as many paid survey sites as you can. I recommend you create a new email address just for the paid survey sites, and check it at least once a day. We have been paid by the legitimate paid survey companies listed here, and it is FREE to sign up and use all of them:

Surveyhead – get $5 FREE just to sign up, pays via Paypal – I have received a $20 survey invitation for a 15 minute survey from this site! We have LOTS of readers earning LOTS of money from this site! This is the #1 paid survey pick of our readers.
