A survey from Email Cash

28 April 2006
Just checked my EmailCash points balance. I have 131 points and 6 exp. At this rate I will have enough points to play their online guessing game in 4 weeks. In a year, I might have enough points to convert into a small voucher.

30 April 2006
EmailCash actually sent me a survey. It took about 15 minutes, and earned me 200 points, equivalent to about $2! Its not going to make me rich, but it is REAL.

Paid Surveys

Pinecone Research
A few years back I responded to an ad asking for women 18-35 for online surveys. It turned out to be with PineCone Research in the UK. They sent me a survey every month or thereabouts, I filled it in for 20 minutes and I got a whole lot of vouchers for free lunches.

It was a fine scheme, and I've been looking for something similar ever since.

**Pinecone Research don't take sign-ups from their web page.

What Do You Think?
I signed up to www.whatdoyouthink.com.au about a year ago, thinking they would send me enough surveys to get a voucher or two. My PC broke down a few weeks later and I missed the only survey invitation they ever sent me. A year later I am still reading all their email ads, but still haven't built up enough points to get any reward.

Surfing around for other surveys, I found www.valuedopinions.com.au a few weeks ago. So far I've had one survey request, but didn't qualify for the full survey and don't qualify for any reward.

Today I found and joined EmailCash. It's a survey site too, but with 400,000 members, I'm not sure I'm going to get any surveys. Still, they do have some good discounts for online shopping sites.

Resource-a-day

Ever heard of resource-a-day? The creators of this scheme are making money out of people's lack of ability to add. In theory you are rewarded for receiving advertising, but when you look at the fine print, you discover that you have to sign up 40 active members to receive a single cheque. The 40 members have to remain active for 2 months. If you read the fine print on the newsletter it says you have to click on two advertisements to remain active. 2 ads a day?

On the up side, there are a few good links to basic internet marketing information.

My verdict: There's no way I'll last 2 months membership with resource-a-day.

Some Freebies From Referralware

A week ago I got a pop-up which led to Referralware. They offered a 1 month free trial, so I gave it a try. I got some good freebies...a how to make money on ebay ebook, & a whole library of other ebooks, some business training, and a link to couple of free airfares on a site which doesn't exist.
What is Referralware? Google gave me a few links, including review, which says that the referralware business is just there to take your membership fees.
To continue with Referalware beyond the month I have to pay $50. Should I pay?
