List of survey sites and focus groups link
 

I am not sure why this link was over in Deal Talk thread. It is a great list of focus group sites and survey sites in alphabetical order. It has been archived here on slickdeals. The OP put a lot of work into it. She has passed away this month. I know there is another list on the surveys section by another poster, but I think this one has more on it. I wish a mod could sticky this link over here as it would be very useful. Here is link.

dead (from post #39) http://www.coleman.com/coleman/Co...nsider.asp

:thanks:

Thanks for bring this back, rest in peace (op of other thread)

Thanks for the link I have never seen it before...

thanks, someone should sticky that thread so people stop searching through archives for these things.

thank you

Very resourceful, I have seen so many sites that I have never known before.

Thank you Stupified for the wonderful suggestion! Our very own Mr SD and Redsolar created the wiki that you now see in this thread of the archieved thread, and I have *stickied* it in this forum as a resource. Enjoy, everyone!!

Thanks OP and thanks Finzz

:) Thanks for putting Sweetestchana's list in the wiki and stickie for all to reference!:nod:

Prayers and peace to Chana. her contributions continue on thanks to Stupefied.

Wow what a list and am I glad I stumbled upon this thread.

Can anybody speak to their experience with either of these sites?

http://www.Epinions.com


A few individuals in the cube next to me at work mentioned these as paying sites. Do you have to have a PayPal account for Epinions.com?

Thanks for the help and again the wonderful list of links.

I remember some of the names from doing paid surveys almost half a decade ago, so are all the links listed in the Wiki paid focus groups and survey sites?

Is ECN reputable? Some of the "offers" sound so much like scams.

There's a bunch over here too.

http://two-ribbons.blogspot.com/

I didn't check to see if they're all on the list, so there are probably a couple of repeats.

thanks everyone =)

Thanks to the OP on this and Chana who did indeed put A LOT of work into this list. It is incredible! She must have been a Mom or a teacher. Maybe both. Thanks for passing all of this along. Great stuff!

Thanks. And Prayers to OP

Hi,
Anyone know how I can sign up for e-rewards?

Sorry if its a dumb question but I see on there site that it says you have to go through one of there sponsors.So those that mean I have to sign up for something else to become a member?Is it free to join these other sites?

You can find signup links via google, but this panel kind of sucks. It's easy to rack up $30 to $40 a month in rewards, but it's not real cash. You can only trade it in for prizes that they claim are valued at that amount...and all of the prizes are CRAP. The only only GC available is for Borders Books and you can only cash in $15 to Borders each year, then you need to use the credit within a month of earning it. EVERY other incentive e-rewards offers is total crap.

Thank you for the information!

E-rewards is not a favorite of mine, but my membership is thru Upromise and I have put $175.00 into my son's 529 plan so far this year. It is not all bad...

i love survey sites. thanks OP

I'll need to research this. It may be a way to actually cash out of e-rewards for real money. Upromise is not *easy* to withdraw from, but you can do it at any time with written notice. If there's a way I can direct all of my e-rewards earnings to Upromise, I'll be a happy camper.

Sucks, but better than nothing at all.

True, but by the time he actually gets to college maybe it is almost $$:lol:

Upromise can be cashed out at any time and doesn't need to be used to college. They don't readily advertise this fact. It's a pain in the butt, because you need to send a written request to cash out, but you can do it at any time.

I like Viewpoint forum. I let my points build up then cash out towards the end of the year.

Does anyone know how to join Viewpoint? I emailed them but no luck.

It's by invitation only

thanks

Great thread w/ lots of info, Thanks!

Anyone has the signup info for All Points Consumer Research Panel? Thanks in advance

Wow long lists. lol Which one sites you use most time? I love getting product tests but don't know which best one.

I've have not used many of these. I just started down the list signing up myself. I sign up for everysite I find. Then when they start sending me crap or thing that don't pay very much or give me PT, then I just block the emails and have it sent straight to the spam folder.

I've never once gotten accepted for anything from Centercode before. I'll be taking a better look at this tonight. TU for the big list, and glancing over it, I see some reputable ones.

this list is a little older list and there are a few new sites, so if anyone has site to add, then please do so. Remember these are site more towards product testing and less towards surveys and focus groups.

i have gotten 1 centercode pt.

Does anyone have like a top ten list of best survey and product testing companies? Love the lists in this thread - but would love to hear which ones are the best of best.

Is there a panel for nurses? I thought I had saw it posted once before and now I cannot find it. I wanted to pass it on to a friend. TIA

Thank you for posting this!

Has anyone tried out surveyloot.info? I signed up yesterday and am about to request my 1st GC. Just wondering if they really pay out.

-Shelly

Lightspeed is no more. They are now Mysurvey. When you click lightspeed.com it takes you to mysurvey. Can someone remove their listing and perhaps put a note under Mysurvey? I'd do it but I don't wanna mess anything up.

Sure thing :) edit: well, scratch that :lol: I am trying to edit the wiki, but I think my computer is acting up because I am getting "error on page" messages. I will try again in a bit.

Were you able to change it?

Is Consumer Behavior Lab a site that can be added?

No, I haven't been able to get into the wiki :( Something appears to be wrong.I have notified our tech mods, and hopefully they will be able to have it fixed soon! Once they do, we will be able to make the changes.

OK, thanks.

Just post a message when it gets fixed so I know.

Much of the sites only prefer residents from the US. The few ones which also cater to worldwide almost always do not send any survey.

http://www.surveypolice.com/directory



is this still considered reliable for ratings?
Havent heard it mentioned in awhile (and yes i did search) TIA

I still see it referenced from time to time, so people must still use it. I did notice, however, that afew of the sites on the main page are no longer in existance (for example, MothersKnowBest) so I wonder how frequently things are being updated over there anymore....

(alittle late))
http://slickdeals.net/forums/show...&t=2784827

Thanks! Passing it on

found this site thru GTM or OO...

http://www2.leadopinion.com/default.aspx

searched for and didn't find it listed on SD so far....

says they will pay up to 7 pounds UK per survey....

LeadOpinion is a fast growing online community of patients, their friends, relatives and carers who participate in online medical market research surveys. Panel members can opt to either donate their rewards to charity or to receive vouchers from major online retailers or high street stores.

What are some good survey sites for 14 year olds????

Is Your2Cents Legit?

Another good company for kids is http://www.kidzeyes.com/

As for Your2cents, speaking only from my personal experience, I gave up on them a long time ago. That is not to say they aren't legit, they very well could be. But I didn't like them, and stopped doing their surveys.

I need to know the very BEST survey sites. Also I need some paid review sites.....

I gave you an example of an excellent site. Do with that as you choose. There are many great sites listed in the forum. Some are stickied at the top. Have a look.

No such thing. It really depends on the person. As stated there are plenty of links to sign up and earn a little extra money. It can be trial and error for most. I would sign up with every site like I did and see what you can get. Some you will keep and others you will never go back to. The more you sign up with; the more opportunities you will get.

thank you for this! i really appreciate it! I have a bunch of survey companies that i signed up with already. And im just looking for more!

this is great! i've made over $500 in the last 6 months doing this!

Personally I like DollarySurveys.net which isn't listed yet. Been using it for a while, they deposit straight to your PayPal account and have been pretty quick with payments for me.

I hope you mean dollarsurveys.com?

nope was talking about dollarsurveys.net

Nice list, I think it is useful to me.

Anyone know the legitimacy of the Market Force: Mystery Shopping and Merchandising? I got an email from them offering me a "part time job," doing this.

Prayers and peace to Chana, i will keep these usefull info. thanks a lot.

Market Force is legit but they don't always pay the greatest.

Same site.

Always thought those in person focus groups raffles were useless. Never knew anyone that won. Yesterday won the raffle. No cash though. But a $200 Amazon gift is on the way. Now if I could only win one of those early bird ones.

I'm fresh into college, 18, female. Anyone have any suggestions for sites? Thank you much! I'm checking the wiki etc. now but just through I'd check with y'all. :)

Can anyone link me to good survey sites with cash for surveys or excellent items to try out? Part time worker with a sick mother who temporarily cannot work.Thanks just wanna make extra cash .

pinecone research

$3 per survey, paid out via PayPal and sometimes more for product testing. Pinecone is amazing.

I love Opinion Outposts. Get several surveys a day and can cash out at $20 for a check. Socratic Forum is also good--usually $3 a survey, can cash out at $5 for check.

Thank you I will try these 2 out and pinecone has me on the waitlist. Surveys are work I can see.

Is Insight Express any good?

https://www.insightexpress.com/ix...count.aspx

Nevermind...



Do I get compensated for taking surveys?
We currently do not offer incentives on every survey. Occasionally, an opportunity will arise where compensation for survey completion is offered. Email invitations will note if compensation if offered for a specific survey.

Cada Cabeza but for spanish people. Get a 20 dollar in 20 minutes just for filling your 10 profiles!
I cashed out 3 times within 5 months so they do actively send several surveys a month. Its not hard to cashout.
http://survey.confirmit.com/commu...p793012411

ThatSaid.com
I think Iposos owns this. Surveys are pretty fun and short and only need like 5 dollars for american express gift-card or 10 dollars for a check. It may take sometime for 1000pts min because most surveys are 45pts-90pts and are more rare than some of popular ones.
http://www.thatsaid.com/home

B2B voice for IT's and consumers. Pretty good panel. I just did a $3 survey and $5 survey a week ago. Takes 1-2 weeks to credit your account or when survey closes. $25 min for check or paypal. Not hard to do at all.
http://www.theb2bvoice.com/

Waw, it is so knid of you to collect them together. Thx

Have just started taking surveys. I seem to screen out a lot. If I keep going at this rate it will take forever to get the 1000 points.
I will keep trying though.

Persistence pays off with surveys...good luck.

Thank You :)

Hi, guys. Is it true that you can earn money from filling-up surveys?

Are you being for real?

How do you get into viewpoint forum? I saw a blog from awhile back saying it's referral only and they shut down the referral program.

I just read their FAQ's, and this is what it says: How do I sign up for Viewpoint Forum?

We are no longer accepting registrations without a referral. You must be referred by an existing member or receive a special invitation from Viewpoint Forum or one of our affiliates.

A heads-up for those who have received The National Household Education Survey through the mail.
 

:wave: This post is a heads-up for those who have received (or will receive) The National Household Education Survey through the mail.

Do Not Throw Out Before Opening...There is a brand new crisp $5.00 bill included in the survey envelope.

survey info:

The Department of Education wants to understand the condition of education in the United States. This survey is the only way that the Department of Education can learn about schooling and child care arrangements from your perspective.

How was your household chosen?

Your address was randomly selected from among all of the home addresses in the nation. It was selected using scientific sampling methods to represent other households in the U.S. The sample is designed so that interviews with only a few thousand people will accurately describe the educational experiences of almost all Americans. Some households will be selected to receive a second survey that asks more specific questions about the educational experience of children in the house.

Can I complete the survey on the web?

No web option is available for this survey. Please complete the form that was mailed to your address. If you have misplaced your form, call the U.S. Census Bureau toll-free at 1-888-840-8353 to request a replacement survey.

More information can be found at nces.ed.gov/nhes.

I just DNQed by accident and got 20 points (40 cents). That is pretty awesome compared to other survey companies.

Do you know which sites to redeem Amazon gift card? I am working on to get my Amazon gift card rack up so I able to buy laptop. :) So far I know is ValuedOpinions.

Just off the top of my head:
synovate
clearvoice

Oh yeah, I forgot about that too. I have both too. lol

Is anyone a member of research.fm? Got an e-mail from them on an account I haven't signed up to get surveys at. It has a rather large incentive to take the survey with them which makes me skeptical. Anyone know if they're legit?

This look good

research.fm is legit

Do you have the sign up link?

http://research.fm/myaccount/setup_account.aspx

I know they are legit because I have done a bunch of surveys and research stuff for them through other survey sites, mainly OO, and have always been paid.

Thanks, tried to sign up, but it is invite only.

Hi, This is my second post on this site. Viggle brought me here. Does anyone know of a survey site that pays out with giftcards through email? Thanks

Click on the link on the first page of the thread. There are lots of of them. Some notables are Opinion Outpost, Synovate, SurveySpot, I-Say, E-Poll, Harris Poll, Mindfield, Buzzback, Testspin, ZoomPanel. There are a lot though.

I'm drawing a blank. What is the PTC website that is almost exactly like Inbox Dollars? I stopped getting e-mails from both and want to reactivate them. You get Gold status, etc. and cash out at $30.

Perhaps Inbox Dollars, or Fusion Cash?

Opion-Outpost/Surveyspot and Quick Rewards are the best way to go if your trying to make a extra buck. Problem with alot of these survey sites is they pay very little most of them and then you have to wait weeks to get creditted and paid. To get ur first 25 dollar cashout on Surveyhead ur expecting 2-3 months minium. Valued Opions take a month or up to 6 weeks to get credited.

SendEarnings! I just remembered!

They also give you $0.10 per coupon redeemed, similar to SwagBucks

I forgot all about SendEarnings. I have $27.72. I need to get busy.

Great resources. Thanks everyone!

Thank you for all of this info. I found it to be VERY useful!!!!

Thank you for all of this info. I found it VERY useful!!!!

Very legit I have made about 100 in amazon gift cards And there surveys are fun compared to other survey companies.

how do I get in research.fm I have taken the 3rd party studies but never direct through them.

I think you only get in through third party studies at the moment. If you go to research.fm and try to sign up with your e-mail (well, this is what happened to me) - I get this message:

You can only setup an account if you have taken surveys for research.fm and not from a third-party survey company.

To see if you are setup in our system and to begin creating your account, please enter your email address below.

----

I'm not really sure what that means. How can you have taken surveys from research.fm if you can't sign up with them? I have only taken surveys with them through third-party sites.

A sum of value of $100?
How many gift card is that and how many surveys did you have to do to earn that much?

How about Elance, guys! I work for Elance for years now. You have a lot to choose from such as blogging, simple research, and data entry jobs. The pay is also good.

Does anyone know of any companies recruiting for putting advertising on your car? i signed up with two sites, but any others i would love to know about. thank you.

I am not aware of any current, legit companies that do this, but your post caught my eye. Here is a heads up about a scam going around for Red Bull advertising on cars. So...this is sort of a PSA about NOT signing up for this one! :)

How do you join research.fm?

Never heard of it until just now and checked it out, but by invitation only. I'd like to get into this, but doesn't look promising.

Hi i never did any survey before please can someone tell me how and where to start evertime i try i get i get stuck thank you

www.focusfwd.com updates its list of paid focus groups and online bulletin surveys. I've participated in a 2 day online bulletinand they paid 175 bucks. Good site.

each survey co is different; depends on how u fit what they r looking for. pick a survey co & hit join, then answer their questions. They each determine what group of peeps( "demographics" ) they want to choose and will then send u instructions. b sure to use a valid email, and check your spam folder
hope that helps

wow,thanks you very much

Hi
Has anyone heard of or used "Lumi Surveys" App. I was sent 2 text messages today for this app with a user id. I dont remember contacting them so perhaps this was a third party type thing. The reviews are limited on the itunes store and I cant find any other online reviews.

Thanks for the comprehensive list. It's a hard work.

I rarely do anything for Data Intelligence. But I recently did a product test and received a $10 B&N gift card promptly. And I was also entered into a sweeps in the process. And I won a Google Nexus 7! Now let's see how long it takes to arrive.

Congrats!!

Thanks. Hopefully I'll get it soon. Already have an Amazon Kindle HD 7", so I think I'll give it to my niece as a late Christmas present.

Nice! I won an iPod Touch from them in 2010. They sent it promptly once I filled out the claim form and sent them a photo and quote (I'm still on their Winners page).

Congrats! I won a second generation Ipod Touch from them several years ago and got alot of use out of it. I since had upgraded so the old model I gave to a friend of mine.

Thanks. Doing surveys has been pretty good to me last year.

That's awesome! I cannot complain on this end either. Here's hoping 2013 is an even better year for all of us!

Thanks:bounce:

Can someone give me a link to communispace? I noticed a lot of people are making some amazon $ from it.. It'd be a nice opportunity! :bounce:

You have to be invited to join. There are many different communispace communities, each specializing in something different. Keep an eye on survey links for invitations to apply!

Okay thank you. :woot:

You're welcome!
