paid surveys 4or money <|> digital toolbox
Some useful items for your paid surveys taking enjoyment...
Browser compatibility
When you join these "paid surveys for money", you should probably have
the latest version of the paid survey company's preferred internet browser, as
most firms will be formatting their paid online surveys that way. Using other than
the market research company's preferred browsers may actually hinder your survey taking, but
this is in no way trying to push you into using an application you don't
like.
While survey publishers are starting to make "other" browser compatible
paid surveys, for
the meantime, it's the "old-standard" for most of the industry. Maybe your
browser is fine, maybe it's not. They'll tell you when you log-on
and participate most of
the time, so consider this a heads-up notification, that's all.
Get the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer
E-Mail Programs
Set-up a dedicated "paid surveys only" email account. For sure! You don't want a few hundred new survey panel invitations in your regular e-mail, do you?
All these are free, and make it pretty easy to be up and voicing your opinion in minutes.

Field
Fillers
When you go to sign-up
at any paid surveys online site, you'll have to fill out some information about yourself.
Field-fillers are pretty good for expediting this process, and generally
worth it.
Be forewarned, not every single free paid surveys site you'll sign up with have all
their fields setup correctly for use with all field-fillers. You'll
probably have to type a little bit, no matter what.
Good thing is, if you
can't type when you start, you'll darn sure be a better typist when you're
done! Most of the ones shown below offer a freebie consumer version.
