from our site are for

4. Are there fees after I register?
No, there are no fees for our service or web
site
5. How many surveys can I take?
There is no
limit. Most legitimate market research companies and survey
sites only
send invitations to take surveys about once a week. A lot of
"marketing" survey sites will send out a few surveys a day
designed to make you purchase a product. We do not list these
types of
"survey" sites.
6. Once
I sign-up, when should I expect to receive my first free paying survey?
You should get an invitation within 2 days. Some
sites may have surveys
available now.
7. Can I register more than once with different email
addresses?
No, only one account per person. Any
duplicate accounts will be
removed
8. Why is your service free?
We make money when you actually take surveys. Companies
want to know what
you think and are willing to pay you for it, as well as
pay us to
find you.
9. Do you share my personal information with
anyone else?
No, we do not share any personal information.
Please see our Privacy Statement.
10. How much does each survey pay? How much can I make?
Anywhere from $.50 to $50. Some will give you free
entries into
Sweepstakes. The amount of money you make depends on how many
legitimate survey
sites with whom you register. We have found about 25 (out
of 200+)
companies that we believe to be the best and most legitimate survey
sites.
11. How and when do I get paid for taking surveys?
For surveys that you take from our website, we pay via PayPal.
The minimum payment is $30 and we pay in increments of $30. We
pay
automatically by PayPal to your PayPal account when your account
balance
reaches $30. If your PayPal account email is different from the one
used
to
register with Yourfreesurveys, please link your Yourfreesurveys address
with
your PayPal address at www.paypal.com.
Other survey sites pay by check, PayPal and sweepstakes entries.
Please
check each sites FAQ's for their payment methods and payment thresholds.
12. What are Profile surveys and should I complete
them?
Yes you should! You will get more survey
invitations and make more
money per survey if you complete these profiles. Companies are willing
to pay
more if they can match their surveys to their
consumers. The more
they know about you, the better the chances for a match.
13. How can I make sure I get all of my
survey invitations?
This can be difficult. A lot of "spam" filters will
intercept your legitimate survey invitations. We recommend using
a new
email address just for the programs we recommend and not using any spam
filters
for that account. We do not send spam and the survey sites
we list
do not send spam. However, do not use this account for other
survey sites
you may find on the internet. It will quickly fill up with
unwanted
offers.
14. Do I have to pay taxes on my survey income?
You should check with your accountant. Survey income is
considered earned as
an "independent contractor" and no taxes are withheld from your
payments. If you earned more than $600 from any one survey
company, they
will send you a form "1099" and the IRS
listing your income from them for the
year.
Please
note that we are
not accountants and are not qualified to provide accounting, tax, or
other
legal advice. Our answer is based on our understanding of the tax laws,
and how
we handle this situation ourselves. Always check with your accountant
or other
tax professional.
15.
Where is my $4 for
Registering?
Your
account is credited
with $4 for signing up for our service. However, our minimum
payment is
$30 via PayPal. Once you complete enough surveys and your account
balance is
over $30, we will send you $30 via PayPal.
16 . How can I check my
account balance?
You can check your account
balance at any time on the red tool bar near the top of the member
page. Click on your "earnings report" located on the tool bar as well,
where you can see which surveys you have taken and been credited on.
17. What are online Surveys?
They are
forms that you complete
online. Survey companies gather the information that they collect
from
1000's of consumers such as yourself, and give the data to companies so
they
can better market their products and services.
18. I don't live in the USA or Canada, Can I
still get paid by YourFreeSurveys?
NO!!!!
Once we
determine you do not live in the USA or Canada, your account is closed
