Can Surveys and other Online Work Pay the Bills – Yes
Yes, surveys and other on-line gigs can pay your bills, but there is a significant amount of work that must be put into these things in order to earn a generous amount of money from this type of on-line work.
Many surveys serve the purpose of advertising and take you through an extensive amount of pages filled with invitations to receive information from their advertisers. What I have found is all that this does is fill up my email with loads of junk mail! These types of surveys usually take a large amount of time for a very small amount of payout. I have seen some surveys that take almost an hour and they are only paying 50 cents for the survey. I don't think 50 cents an hour is going to help out very much in paying any bills.
There are legitimate surveys on-line where you can get paid anywhere from a few cents to several dollars per survey. These surveys will not be bombarding you with advertising questions and taking you to all sorts of different websites. They will be pretty straightforward and should tell you the general amount of time you will spend on the survey. Some surveys only take 5-10 minutes, others take up to an hour. A legitimate and well-run survey company will pay you according to the general amount of time it takes, so if you are spending an hour, they will make it worth it.
Other on-line "gigs" such as pay to click websites and publishing websites can also bring in a decent amount of money, but it takes a while to build up enough cash flow to quit your regular job to live solely on these types of income. Like with most jobs, the more time you put into it, the more you will get paid.
Pay to click websites are a dime a dozen, with some being nearly a waste of time and others paying a decent amount for the time spent. I could be wrong, but I do not know of anyone who is living solely off of work from pay to click websites. These websites pay anywhere from a half a cent per click to 5 or 6 cents per click. If you have absolutely nothing to do and are using this as extra income, it may be worth the time spent, but otherwise you are making around 60 cents to $7.20 per hour. This is assuming that you actually get enough ads from your website to click on to work an entire hour. There is opportunity to earn more with these sites by gaining referrals and earning from your referrals, but it is usually a few dollars per month at best.
On-line publishing sites are probably one of the best forms of earning money on-line with minimal training and education. There is a growing number of websites where you can publish articles of different genres and eventually earn a decent income. Again, this takes time and work! The more you write, publish, and promote your articles, the more you will make. Those who are making enough money to pay the bills through this type of on-line work are putting time and effort into it every day. Most people will not see themselves becoming a millionaire by publishing articles, but they may be able to earn enough to eventually use it as their main source of income.
So I say yes, surveys and other on-line gigs may bring in enough money to pay the bills, but one has to be willing to put in many hours and hard work in order for this to be true.
