Look for online sources where other people give opinions and reviews for paid online surveys. Getting advice from others can be helpful to determine which paid surveys are legit and which aren't worth doing. Online forums, blogs and discussion groups can be useful sources for this type of information. Some examples include:

You'll find some of the popular U.S.companies for paid surveys online are:

• Pinecone Research

• HCD Surveys (my personal favorite)

The rankings for a company can change so it's a good idea to keep updated on the latest reviews. Some paid surveys have a waiting list or may require you to be invited by a current survey panel user. Survey companies often pay you a comission for signing up new members.

You'll find survey companies each have their own methods for payment. Many have minimum payout amounts that you have to reach before they will pay you. Some wll send you a check by mail while others may deposit the payment into your Paypal account.

Most use a point system where you receive "X" amount of points for completeing a survey. Once the points reach a certain amount they can be redeemed for money, gift cards, etc, depending on the survey company you use.

Use caution with paid surveys. You should never have to pay money to particiapte in or find legit paid suveys online. Also be careful about revealing information such as your bank account or credit card number.

It is wise to select a company which offers paid surveys hat best fit your demographics and interests. For example, if you use the latest technology and electronics you may want to choose a survey company that offers frequent paid surveys for that topic. Other paid survey topics may include medical conditions, political views, food and beverage reviews, etc.
