Legitimate paid surveys are the ones that are offered by real research companies and are free to join and pay you for your opinions.

The best paid survey sites you can join are the ones that pay well and send consistent surveys.

There are a few sites that have lists of the best paid survey sites out there with reviews and recommendations. The following website is a very good place to start:

You should join as many of these sites as possible so you will get consistent surveys to take and maximize your earnings.

If a site makes outrageous claims about making a fortune taking surveys or wants you to pay them to take surveys be very careful. When in doubt, move on, there are plenty of real ones out there.

Once you have signed up for as many paid survey sites as you can find, take a look at their referral programs. You can often earn additional money by referring your friends, family and co-workers to participate in paid surveys.

If you follow these steps, you should be making money by taking paid surveys within a very short time.
