Sweepstakes Only Survey Sites
Advice May 28th, 2008I’ll be finishing up the “list series” today with the survey sites that pay with Sweepstakes only. It’s a short one but important to note if you are planning to make real money and don’t want to waste your time on sites that only enter you into “chance to win” sweepstakes. If you read the fine print on these sites, it will state that on occasion, they will send surveys for rewards, but I have never experienced those “occasions”. Please let me know if you have.
Sweepstakes Only survey Sites
1) NPDOR : Complicated “Sweepsland” points system.
2) Planet Panel: Rewarded by entries into sweepstakes.
3) Nielson Net Ratings: instant win and quarterly $10,000 sweepstakes drawings
4) OpinionSurveys.com : quarterly $50,000 sweepstakes drawings
5) Hey Neilson: I’ve added this here, but they don’t even have sweepstakes 
My brother fainted while he was being confirmed at church. He went down like a rock…no video cameras way back then, but it was pretty funny. Here’s a great YouTube video that should make him feel better.

The only thing that is a waste of my time is Social Networking sites like MySpace. With that said, I’m a only a member of NPDOR and Nielson Net Ratings. I have the Nielson program installed in my computer but now it NEVER started up when I turn on the PC.

Another Survey Site to mention is BigLook.com [BigLook Panel], which rewards the members with Sweepstakes, only.
During my membership [which has been for sometime], I’ve noted the lack of Survey opportunities sent, and so I’d feel it fair to say this Site would be a waste of time [I could be wrong, but when it becomes necessary to e-mail the Site Owner questioning when you'll receive a Survey, as you'd not had one in a few months,..and you lose track of the Site due to this - it's in "My Favorites," and periodically the Survey Sites are reviewed to make certain I've remained an active member,.....you have to either make a decision to contact someone, or delete them].
I hope this may become useful information for members.

Hi,
i just wanted to ask whether ANY of you has EVER won a sweepstake, because lots surveys are entering you in sweepstakes. Personally the only sweepstakes i enter is for NPDOR, since they have daily $100 prize, and they also give a list of winners, but it is not the case with others. For ex, survey spot is a good survey site, i just completed a $10 survey (took 1 hour), but you cannot see how many sweepstake entries you have. I should have entries in thousands, considering the no of surveys i do on that site.
Also have any of you guys tried Survey Scout? Yes i know it is a waste. But i saw a video on youtube, from guys saying it was great, and also other sites like ‘Cash for survey’ and ‘Highest paid surveys’. I googled about them and found out that a lot of people were really pissed off with them, and it seems the list of companies they give contains the sites, we all already know, and are FREE.
Apparently these guys promise to get you surveys, bringing you $50, or more, yeah right! What company pays you so much? I have done surveys for comapnies like Pepsi, Microsoft, Walmart etc,and they don’t pay you so much. what other big companies are there? Many of these companies are just prying on innocent people, who are desperate to earn a living. I myself am making a list of all jobs available on the net, and am going to put them on a blog, so that people can get information for free.
Anyway i really would like to know about someone who has won a sweepstakes, just to see whether someone is really winning. I do not think i will ever win a sweepstakes, but i am a member of Jackpot rewards, not for the lottery, but you can get good discounts on selected items, and also since it is a free trial
I like joining free trials, but unfortunately i missed payment for a few since, i had a couple of softwares installed on my system. Ad blockers, script blockers, cookie blockers etc. i have removed them though, and have got credited for some offers i joined.
I joined a couple of offers on YourfreeSurveys, but haven’t been credited yet
DAMN!! this is a long message, i am going to mail later.
bye
P.s: Has anyone any info about Getpaidtotry.com

Hi Jash18! I have NEVER won a sweepstakes, or known anyone who has. It would be nice though
The problem with Survey Scout and all of the others who charge you a lot of money to join, is that you don’t find out that you’ve been scammed until it’s too late, after you have paid them. The lists are the same as any free list.
And, since I am customer service for Yourfreesurveys, please send me an email about which offers you took, and I’ll credit your account! Easy as that. Send to mark@yourfreesurveys.com

I will never join a Sweepstakes Only site unless I am paid to do so by an Offer site, such as Send Earnings, Inbox Dollars or Tik Tik Cash. I will also be unsubscribing to Tik Tik Cash as soon as I hit that magical $100 cash out point. I can only hope that I live that long… ($44 and counting!)

Hi Lee,
If you are talking about Jackpot rewards, i did join it from a offer site. Got $5 for it. Why else would i join it? I have a better chance of being hit by a lightning bolt, than win a lottery or a sweepstakes
Anyway i have done a couple of surveys for I-say, i have 14 points, so by the time i have enough points to redeem, i will probably be old enough to buy a walking stick for myself :p
I also want to thank Heath for crediting my account, i just cant wait to make it $30,that was by far the fastest response i received from a survey site, that was great. I give you *****(five stars) , for efficiency.
thank you

Wow Lee you are quickly making a lot of money with only four months since you started doing this. I’m not sure about this but I think you might have more money than me. I think I will soon list all the sites I’m a member of like you did. The only thing that will stop me from doing that is laziness.
May 29th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
Wow Lee!
that is some list, i can’t match you so much, because i started taking surveys only in in mid april, but i have done good in some surveys too.
Survey spot- till date ( $86), see i match you there
Also in lightspeed panel 575points= $5( $20 redeemed till now, waiting for another $5)
your2cents- $6 requested
surveysavvy-$2
american consumer opinion- $4
I have points and cash in other surveys but do not have necessary amount to redeem, should be able to get more, since i am doing lots of trial offers, surveys regularly now
But seriously, do you really only do surveys for 1hour per day? C’mon some the surveys each take 1 hour to complete.
Or maybe i am just getting the bad ones. Have to join pinecone research and greenfiled,and some other good sites, then maybe my earnings will increase.

Nice going Eddie and Jash! When I first started doing surveys in February I wasted a LOT of time on worthless surveys for points, prizes, sweepstakes and spent 4-6 hours per day I am guessing. I took 60-minute-long surveys from Greenfield for a sweepstakes entry. Now I am gradually refining my technique down to a science.
I think it is possible to earn up to $200-300 per month from only one to two hours per day of work once you have determined the 30 best surveys for your demographic and how to answer these for maximum profit with minimum effort. Your demographic is key so you need to think carefully about this before filling out your profiles and, of course, fill out ALL of the profiles on EVERY paid online survey site that you join.
With sites such as SendEarnings and Inbox Dollars you MUST visit their websites every single day before taking ANY Greenfield surveys in order to make certain you get their $0.50 (formerly $1) per survey each day. Those two alone account for $30 every single month, in addition to the $3-4 you also earn monthly from clicking on their lame offer sites.
I do not recommend that you join ANY offer sites, but if you do ONLY sign up for things that you will definitely want such as membership in legitimate paid surveys or a Blockbuster or NetFlix trial, etc. and keep VERY ACCURATE records of what you have signed up for, when you signed up and MAKE CERTAIN that you cancel well before the trial period ends. This still does not always guarantee that you won’t end up hassling with either the company or your bank to have charges removed in some cases. I will unsubscribe to Tik Tik Cash as soon as I hit the ridiculously high pay out point of $100 and I won’t sign up for anything from SendEarnings or Inbox Dollars unless I really want it.
May 29th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
wow lee, that’s an amazing list with greatttt earnings
1 hour a day??? wow, i’m pretty much with my computer the whole day and nowhere near your earnings 
May 29th, 2008 at 6:07 pm
I spend most of my computer time working on eBay, which generates about $1000 per month in sales. I also am a frequent poster on several different forums, some of them associated with survey taking. I take frequent breaks as I do not like sitting in front of the computer or typing for more than about one hour at a time.

I just earned another $10 Amazon gift card from Keynote, which I immediately used to get a DVD of Stevie Ray Vaughn Live at the Montreaux Jazz festival, so I should probably count that as well. I have gotten two $10 Amazon gift cards from Keynote since I joined in April. I got Paul McCartney ‘Chaos and Creation in My Backyard’ with the other one. It’s a combination CD/DVD.
May 29th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
Hi lee,
What do you sell that makes $1000 on ebay? i am only a buyer on ebay, have no idea about the selling part.
Anyway good to see u got a gift card, i never really understood how it works. I mean you only have $10 gift card, what if the item you are buying is more than $10 or less?
By the way today has been very profitable, i got two surveys from survey spot $10, & $5, also $8 awarded for an offer in yourfreesurveys, another 10,000 points awarded in memolink, two surveys from opinion post $1.5, and $2, a $4 survey from American consumer opinion, and finally survey from lightspeed panel( i get a min of 1 survey from lightspeed everyday). today was like rain after a drought, my inbox was filling up with surveys from every company. I didn’t qualify for some though.
But anyway,todays total comes to $35.5, not bad
Wish everyday was like this :p
By the way i am also doing product testing for a couple of things, shower gels, and pain relief medication, and others. I got the offers after completing some surveys. So, if i get a few more like this, i won’t have to buy any stuff outside
Also joined some club on ebay, and something else,after doing some surveys on surveyspot. I can’t even remember what i joined. I don’t think the idiots sent me any mail after i joined, i was supposed to log in once a week, and post some comments, and i was to get free gifts and cash.
I should probably check again, i could send a mail to surveyspot, but they have never replied back to any mail i sent

Well Heath it seems like you are done categorizing all of the survey sites. Now is a good time to implement this into the long list of “Detailed Reviews of Online Survey Sites”. This will group survey panels that are similar and will curtail the list into only a few clickable categories.
