Why Online Paid Surveys Work?

Many of these are also making a few handy dollars every week or month.
So why would a company pay these dollars to the web surfers? Obvious they are getting money from somewhere.
So then by which way do these site owners pay their staff, pay the site members and still make a handsome profit.

Paid Survey sites are primarily of two types -

1.
The actual Paid Survey site

The first type in itself does not conduct surveys.
Most of them would have links which when clicked, takes user to the actual paid survey pages of a different site.
Hence if you are paying to register to these directories, remember that they are not going to pay you anything.
Ideally, if you are a new Pair Survey worker then you should start with searching Paid Survey sites on your own through one of the search engines or register at a free Paid Survey site directory.
They could be conducting survey on some newly launched product or an advertising promotion.
They often want to know their customer preferences and behavior.
Some site owners also help the consumer companies in analyzing the data and generate statistical reports.
Some dubious survey site owners pass on their member contact information to other companies.
This is one of the channel by which spam reaches your mailbox.
 Quiet a few Paid Survey sites, this days charge a small registration fee for the new members joining the site to take surveys.

All the above ensures that both the Paid Survey Directory sites and the actual Paid Survey sites thrive on the Wonderland of Internet.
