My Survey Scout Review

One of the oldest and largest websites to cater to the paid survey community is Survey Scout. This site claims to provide access to over 400 companies that pay between $5 and $75 for every survey you take. Could this opportunity be real or is Survey Scout just another work at home scam? To get to the bottom of this, I took a close look at this site and the so-called opportunity.

First things first, Survey Scout themselves don't pay you anything. Instead, they provide you with access to a database of companies looking for people to take paid surveys and do other similar work from home. These are the companies that ultimately pay you. Survey Scout is merely a resource for finding legitimate opportunities.

If you aren't familiar with paid surveys, here is the deal. Large companies like Nike, Coca Cola and others need real consumer feedback on their products in order to make good business decisions. To get this information, they contract with market research firms who develop surveys and pay participants for their time to take these surveys and provide good information and real opinions. These are the "paid surveys" that you can take.

Paid surveys are't a scam or an urban legend, but they do have their pro's and con's. On the positive side, paid surveys are easy to take and don't take a whole lot of time to do. The amount you earn for paid surveys is good considering the time invested. A survey may take 5 minutes and pay $5, earning you the equivalent of $60 an hour.

If there is one thing that you must know about paid surveys in general it is this - it takes a lot of surveys to make good money. Because each survey is worth a few dollars each, you need to have a constant supply of new surveys to take. The database that you gain access to with a Survey Scout membership lists over 400 companies, so you stand to get a number of paid surveys.

Another cool thing about Survey Scout is that they have listings for other unusual spare time money makers. Things like secret shopping, paid to drive, paid email and even paid to search are represented in their database. Additionally, they have a section for companies that hire home based workers if you are looking for more than supplementary income from home. Other survey sites don't always list these types of opportunities for their members, so I consider this a big benefit of choosing survey Scout.

Whats the verdict? Survey Scout is a great resource for people looking to make money from home in their spare time. You should not expect to get rich with this program, but in an economy where every dollar counts, it can be a good way to stretch your budget and cover some of those pesky bills each month. The opportunities are legitimate and flexible and thanks to the money back guarantee offered, you can even try it out for no risk.
