Online surveys offer great rewards but to whom?
I recently was searching the internet and stumbled upon many online survey sites that claim you can make extra money taking surveys. I signed up with 100 or more survey sites. (Each site gives you lists of more survey sites and the list grows.) Now, according to all the research I did, I just had to sit back and rake in the money. I could pick and choose which surveys to take and make between $10 and $75 dollars for each short survey.
Where are the surveys? I have been offered two cents to read emails and one dollar to take a short 20-30 minute survey, but where’s the money? Any survey over one dollar has been impossible to qualify for!!! I finally got fed up and decided to take every cheap-o survey that came my way thinking that maybe these were like pre-surveys and that real ones would be next. I don’t know how much time I’ve wasted answering questions just to find that I don’t qualify for this two or three dollar surveys.
So to sum up… online survey sites are a scam. Many tempt you with cash or prizes and you don’t qualify or you have to buy something. Most of them list offers that you are required to sign up for in order to claim your reward. Online Surveys? STAY AWAY

Reward or cashback rates normally range from 0.5% to 10%, however there have been rates seen much higher than this depending on the offer and cashback website. Some of these cashback sites and online shopping reward sites will also give you a welcome bonus to give your account a nice healthy starting balance. Although such cashback sites will not make you rich overnight, they can be an unexpected bonus, and, if you shop online on a regular basis, then you have nothing to lose by joining them and can only gain from the experience.
Cashback sites in the USA tend to reward in either points (which are exchangeable for various products or vouchers) or in cash which is claimable at a certain level.
