LIST OF GPT AND SURVEY SITES

(updated 11-02-2010)

Here's a list of good sites. They all offer free and easy ways to make some cash. They're not in any real order, except that GPT sites are first, and survey-only companies are at the end. These are all good, legitimate, paying sites, and just because one is listed farther down the list doesn't make it worse than any other. They pretty much all offer the basics: zip/email submits, paid to signups, trial offers, 100% free offers, surveys, contests, games, etc.

________________________________________________________________

I find that taking online consumer surveys to be a good way to earn some extra cash in these lean times. They're all 100% free to join and participate in, and you can do them at your own leisure whenever you have a little free time. These survey companies are all very honest and dependable, and pay by check or through PayPal. You can also make money for each person you refer.

Opinion Outpost



This is one of the best! The surveys are seldom very long, and the pay generally runs between $2-$10 per survey. Sometimes they get busy and you might be offered as many as 5 surveys a day, though 1 a day is closer to the norm. Your account is credited immediately after completing each survey, and you can cash-out anytime you have at least $5 in your account and they'll send you a check. They pay $1 each for anybody you refer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Daily Survey Panel



This one doesn't pay a lot, only averaging about $1 per survey, but on the plus side they offer at least 3 surveys a day, and you can cash-out anytime you have a minimum of $1 in your account, and you'll be paid through PayPal within 24 hours- and it usually only takes a few hours! You'll also be paid $1 per month for every active referral that you have, and that's some easy money!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mindfield Online

http://mindfieldonline.com/referral/f14d6ede

Most of these surveys pay in the $1-$5 range, though occasionally they'll run higher. You can cash-out through PayPal or check anytime you have a minimum of $5 in your account. Referrals pay $1 each!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
My Survey

Banner Ad

They'll send you invitations offering 10-20 points to participate in a survey, and a point is only worth 1 cent. But this is only to take a 5 minute qualifier. If you qualify to procede with the survey, they'll offer more- usually 50-100 more points, and sometimes higher. Twice I've gotten $20 surveys after completing 10 cent qualifiers! You can cash-out anytime you have at least $10 in your account and they'll send you a check. Referrals pay $1.50 each!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACOP



This is a good company but they don't offer very many survey opportunities. When they do, though, the surveys pay a minimum of $4 each! You can cash-out anytime, no minimum, and they'll send you a check. Referrals pay 50 cents each.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
HCD Surveys

https://www.hcdsurveys.com/panel/join.cfm?referralid=201017

When you hear and read the news and they say that 65% of the people polled believe this or that, this is usually one of the companies supplying the numbers. Most of these surveys are about current events in the news. They usually show you a short video clip and ask your opinion. Most don't pay much, only 50 cents, but they only take 5 minutes and they're really interesting. Occasionally they'll have higher-paying ones, though, around $5-$6 each. They pay monthly by check as long as you have $10 in your account. Referrals are worth 50 cents each.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Survey Savvy

https://www.surveysavvy.com/?id=3172473&action=join

Most of these surveys pay $1-$2 each. They also have a unique program where you get a commission from the surveys that your referrals and your referrals' referrals complete. Usually $1 and 50 cents, respectively. You can cash-out anytime, no minimum, and they'll send you a check.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------






























































GETTING OFFERS TO APPROVE

First off, when doing an offer, you don't have to complete every partner's ad or fill in every page that you come to. That would take forever, even with RoboForm. There's almost always a button on the page that says "skip" or "no thanks". It's usually at the bottom, but is occasionally at the top of the page. Sometimes it's almost hidden or in an unlikely area, so you have to look for it.

When presented with a long list of yes/no offers that don't have a skip button at the bottom, if you answer no to all of them you'll usually get a message that reads "you must select at least one of our partner's great offers to continue". Select one and a registration form will pop up, and that form will have a skip button on it.

Some offers won't approve no matter what you do. You're bound to run into some offers submitted by crooked advertisers that are going to do anything they can to keep from paying up. Every crook and hustler in the world is working online now, trying to turn a buck. But, even crooks have to stay somewhat within the boundaries of the law, or they won't stay in business very long. Then, some advertisers are completely honest, probably too honest for their own good, leaving themselves open to being taken advantage of themselves. Most fall somewhere in between.
There's not much you can do about other peoples' character flaws, but there's a lot you can do to greatly increase your chances of getting offers approved.

A lot of 100% free offers have ads , usually at the end, silver,gold and platinum ads, where every one of them does cost money: s&h or whatever. Once you reach these ads you're done and can close the window. Sometimes they put the silver offer on the first page. Just close it and continue with the offer. Most offers, toward the end, will have a page that says "Congratulations, you've completed the survey! Now take a look...", or something along those lines. No need to go further, you're done and can close. If an offer is listed as 100% free, you're not required to spend a penny to get paid, or else somebodies breaking the law.

Clean your cookies. Adjust your privacy settings to accept cookies, then delete them between every offer. Either do it through your control panel- Internet options, or download "ccleaner" or something similar and do it with one click.

Disable pop-up blockers and your firewall. I know it sounds risky, but these advertisers don't want to infect you with a virus, they just want to sell you something, and you don't want anything to prevent their cookies from being accepted.

Use Internet Explorer. A lot of these sites, especially the newer ones, won't even accept AOL or Netscape. And of the ones that do, some of the advertisers within the sites only accept IE or Firefox or Safari. IE is probably the most widely accepted browser by everyone.

Give the pages time to fully load before clicking "no", or "skip", or "next page". Give it a chance to register that you were there. When you reach the "Thank you" or "Congratulations" page, linger there for a few moments before closing to ensure that they have you registered.

Say "yes" to a couple of the affiliate offers. If you say "no" to everything, then the advertiser's losing money. If you say "yes" to one or two of the free partner's ads, and complete the forms, then you'll get paid, the advertiser will get paid by their partner, and everybody is happy. Except maybe the partner. Sign up for an offer that costs something, if you see one you like, and then they're happy, too. But that's not required to complete the terms for 100% free offers.

Also, if I'm asked for credit card information, I don't consider that to be a "free" offer, but they will usually approve if you're willing to take the chance. Same with the credit and loan companies that require an s.s.#.

Very often the same advertiser will have several different offers posted at the same time. It's perfectly fine to do them, but it's a good idea to only do a few at a time, until they clear, and to use a different email address after each one. And definitely clean the cookies between offers!

GENERAL TIPS FOR G.P.T. SITES

Some of these sites won't work with proxy servers, like AOL and Netscape. Their systems read it as multiple accounts, and they'll delete you or lock you out. The safest bet is to always use Internet Explorer or Firefox when logging in.



The rules are basically the same from one site to the next, mostly just common sense stuff, but it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with each sites' specific rules so you don't get surprised down the road, and suddenly have your account deleted and all of your earnings forfeited.



The minimum age to join is usually 13, 16, or 18, varying from site to site, and most sites also have offers than specify their own minimum age requirements.



They all require that you submit factual information and only have one account. Though some will permit separate accounts for different household members. And most sites will permit multiple email addresses when filling out offers. The reasoning behind this is that they are all your accounts, so it's not false information.

There's an awful lot of forms to fill out that would take forever to do by hand. You can download the basic version of RoboForm free, load up your information, and fill out an entire page of routine questions with one click. When faced with a long list of yes/no questions, you can click near the questions, then hit your right Alt and = together, and every question in the list will be answered "NO".

You'll be flooded with phone calls from the offers you sign up for, so it's good to either get a cheap pre-paid cell phone that you can use for this purpose, or use a re-routing service where you can get a new number, and the calls will be forwarded to voice-mail. Numbr and K-7 are a couple of free ones, though you can't always get a local area code, and some of the advertisers require a local number.

You'll pick up a lot of junk on your pc, so it's good to run some cleaning software frequently.

It's considered "fraud" to do the same exact offer twice or more, even when they're posted on different sites. And you'll probably get terminated from the site and your earnings forfeited if you get caught. So
be sure to keep a record of the offers that you complete! It's easy to forget whether having done an offer or not when you do them by the hundreds!
