Making money online and not getting scammed.
The internet is the greatest source you can have today. It is like when railroads had a big effect in the United States in the late 1800s. The internet can bring you money. The main reason is advertising. Companies want people to find out about them and become successful.
Ways to be sure not to get scammed:
- Don’t give out credit card information on these offers.
- Read what you need to do in order to get credit, and not wind up doing extra work, taking extra time.
- Don’t trade or pay for referral guides, they don’t work, create your own tactic.
A site I use is Rewards1. A survey site is where you can get around an average of 50 cents a survey offer. A survey takes 5 min. most of the time. If you do the math, that’s 6 dollars a hour! Not to bad. A problem that comes up, is offers sometimes not crediting or not enough offers to do. This site also has referring people as an option. You can receive 20%. I will be honest. I have only earned 20 dollars in 2 months, about 80% in the first month. I have referred 44 people and earned a little over 4 dollars from referrals.
I have done only 20 offers. Not too bad for a little of my time, and also because one offer credited 6 dollars to my account and took a little longer to do. You can also order prizes straight from the site or custom order from another site. Another site, which is rather the same, is prize rebel. Works the same as rewards1. When you get a chance, check out these sites.

Great advise thanks. I will look into that survey spot. Even 20 in 2 months can help…

I have done several hundred surveys, most are for the $5.00 to $10.00 range. One survey, a big one, took an hour and came in two parts. You could ‘take a break’ at the midway point, but had to not stop in each of the two halves. The payout: $65.00-USD
Beware of those “$3.00″ surveys that ‘take about 5-mins.’…many are SCAM (IMHO) because you do the survey and at the end of the 5, 10 whatever minutes, the LAST question is something like “…we are sorry, you do not meet the requirements for our advertiser” or “…sorry, the survey had reached it’s quota for persons with your qualifications” etc. Well then, the survey should have STOPPED around the second or third question, now, they HAVE your data and you will get …nothing!
Those “$3.00 if you qualify” surveys are rather noted for doing this. Your results may vary, of course. And those “…no cash prize but you will be entered into our monthly draw for (insert prize or nominally-marginal sun of ca$h here)”… They ARE scam!
Okay… I need to write an article about this now…

I have also done many of these surveys that are scams or I believe they are because as the stickman says, they ask you all the questions then say you don’t qualify. I will check out these two. Best wishes, Ruby

I have done lots of surveys and most have been scams. As stickman says, you answer questions and then they say you don’t fit the requirements. The only way to make money is through referrals.

Hello,
Monetizing creative online content is a great way to create an income stream with almost no upfront investment, but the tradeoff (once again) is time. It takes a tremendous amount of time to create the amount of content that will eventually produce a decent stream of passive income.Passive income
