Part-time or Full-time

I can't believe all the activity with you guys and the surveys (not to mention the unbelievable amount of money to be made). So, do you "top earners" do this from sunrise to sundown? I only do a few a day and would be lucky to make $5 before day's end.

Guess I need to sign up with all those top sites as you mention.

Would like to hear from anyone's daily schedule in this life of surveys.

Thanks!

I am disabled and currently unemployed, so I am able to spend more time at the computer than most, but I am also fairly lazy, so my routine starts after breakfast. I watch The View, drink my coffee, read the newspaper and then after the local news ends at 12:30pm I stumble back into the computer room and start taking surveys.

The first thing I do is examine my gmail account for all paid surveys $1 and above and do those (SurveySpot, OpinionOutpost, GlobalTestmarket, ValuedOpinions, etc.). Sometimes I spend over an hour and make $5 or $10 just on these. Usually I only qualify for one or two and it's less than an hour.

Then I take both daily surveys from YourFreeSurveys, OTX ($1.05) and GiveUsYour2Cents (0.90). Usually I qualify and complete both of these, but sometimes only one or none. Next, I do the Daily Survey panel daily surveys, OTX ($0.60), GiveUsYour2Cents ($0.55) and Greenfield ($0.60). Often I have reached my limit on OTX or GUY2C for the day and don't get to do those again after taking them on YFS.

At this point I usually break for lunch, then I come back and finish off the SurveySpot, Greenfield Online and other surveys from legitimate paying companies that are just for sweepstakes, as this helps to ensure you get invited to paying surveys from them and you never know when an Invoke Interactive ($10 to $30 or more) or a product trial (free stuff and sometimes they pay you $10 ore more to try it) will pop up.

By this time I have to run to the bank and Post Office to take care of anything from my eBay business (www.lapisconnection.com) and then back home to chill out and watch the news, then dinner. Afterwards it's TV or a DVD and then later I spend a couple hours checking the forums, chatting and taking the occasional survey that pops up after dinner. I don't like to leave any surveys from my top 25 survey sites undone if possible.

I estimate that I spend two to three hours during the afternoon betwen 12:30 and 6pm, not including frequent breaks, lunch and running errands and then another hour after dinner until I fall asleep sometime after The Tonight Show goes off. That's my schedule! Hope this helps.

i find it pretty hard 2 believe u only spend a couple hours daily doing surveys including the ones for sweeps entries. specially when it comes to DAILY SURVEYS which can take 20 to 30 minutes just 2 qualify for one!

i spend the WHOLE day in and out… in the morning i do ALL the PAID surveys that r in my email, then i take breaks to eat, watch tv, exercise and clean the house but WILL always come back to my pc everytime my MSN MESSENGER tells me i have a new email cuz some surveys fill out pretty fast!

Believe it or not I rarely spend more than three or four hours during the day and another one or two hours at night and some days I only spend one or two hours total. I think I average around four hours per day taking surveys, some days more, but other days less or none at all. When I put off doing those Greenfield Online and SurveySpot sweepstakes surveys until the end of the day I cut out a lot of wasted time, but I don’t qualify for quite as many Invoke Interactives. I seriously cannot spend more than an hour or so in front of the computer at a time since I had my vitreous separation (when the gel of your eyeball starts to pull away from the retina but less serious than a torn or detached retina) last month. I can honestly say that I cannot remember the last time that I spent eight hours or more doing surveys during the course of a single day. I have put in quite a few six hour days but that really strains my eyes and I have to quit when I reach that point.

First of all Lee, I'm sorry to hear about your eye situation. Just yesterday I sprained my left hand and it's awful to type with the hand all bandaged up.

However, it sounds like you have quite a routine going on there. I know how finicky OTX is and everyday I usually max out my welcome there. I'm going to try the approach of going to YourFreeSurveys first thing and get qualified for those since they seem to have the best payout.

Thanks for your input!
