Do you think surveys are a waste of time?

[Kennysplash]

When it comes to working online many people recommend taking parts and service. But have you ever completed a survey and paid for it? For me the answer is mostly no.
Sometimes while I'm in the middle of a survey I get screened out. For this reason I concluded that taking surveys are just not worth it.
To me they are a waste of time. Do you find surveys profitable?

It's a bit difficult to get good paying survey sites, as most of the ones available are just time wasting platforms and they pay peanuts as reward, even if you get the good ones that pay well, most of them will be geo-targeted which could be very discouraging.

Surveys can be a hit or miss, and more often than not it's a miss for me too. I think the screening process can be quite frustrating and the payout doesnt really justify the time and effort. I've found that doing freelance work or selling stuff online is a more profitable option.

Surveys are not a waste of time if you're a citizen of tier1 countries. However for others, it's a waste of time because your input will be rejected as you're not qualified. It's best to focus on what works for you.

It's waste of time for me because I am unable to earn from them no matter how hard I try on survey websites

 

[Springtime]

No, doing surveys is not a waste of time for me. I've been doing surveys for a few legitimate survey sites for many years. I did make some money from them.

 

[Hate2Wait]

I know you are very good at surveys so naturally you like it and its not a waste of time for you

Survey sites are not a waste of time. The problem with surveys is that surveys are not always available for all countries around the world.

It's a waste of time for me because I don't earn from surveys and don't even remember the last time I earned from it

I understand. Surveys do not work for me either. Fortunately, there are other earning opportunities for us like the paid-to-post sites.

Yes we are dependent on only pay to post forums for our survival because other websites don't work for us

This is true. As for me, currently, I am only working on R.I.F. and Yandex Toloka. Both sites are my favourites.

I don't find surveys profitable at all. Until we don't live in a top tier country, until we can't count on an at least discreetly paid job (better if a managerial job), until we don't own a motor vehicle, until we don't go to the cinema at least each 6 months, until we don't travel by plane for job's sake, companies consider us the worst target. They search for panelists that can count on a big spending power. No wonder if we get 90% of disqualifications. Yes, I mostly consider surveys a waste of time, until I bump into survey panels paying partial completions and screenouts (like in-Brain, TapResearch, Theorem Reach and similar).

Surveys are a complete waste if time for me. The pay is very low and sometimes for days, you are not being offered any surveys.

 

[relcap23]

It depends on the kind of survey site. I made more income from survey than any other online earning site. I gave up others which don't give points after one is screened out. I only maintain some 4 sites now.

 

[Bango]

No it's not like that you can earn from them but it depends on what country you live in. It is not suitable for us who are in Tier 3 countries

 

[puroypoi]

Some survey helped me to have a little amount of money, when there were no other sites that can help me when I needed it the most, and even most of the survey sites rejected me, I still believe it was never a waste of time for someone like me who was able to get a helped from them.

That's good. It's not easy for us to accommodate different websites with our offline job so whatever amount we make is bonus

I dislike a surveying for being rejected many times but this time, I feel lucky for I found a site that invites me to join. Survey is one package on that site. Thankfully I have earned now 12 dollars for doing surveys at 10 minutes each survey each day. There are 6 rounds surveys good for 1 hour. It's not bad.

 

[Hate2Wait]

We are humans and we do feel bad when we are rejected and these surveys do reject us all the time
