SurveySpot Review by LapisLee

by LapisLee on October 21, 2009

Survey Spot is the absolute best survey site I have found since I started taking paid online surveys in January 2008. They rank 1st with $422.80 earned and $419.80 received. SurveySpot has a very straightforward cash system, where they send emails that clearly state how much you will earn and how long it will take to complete the survey. The minimum cash out threshold is $5 and I have cashed out 18 times since March 2008. It takes four to six weeks for the checks to arrive and they do not currently have PayPal, although they made an announcement in April 2009 that they would be getting PayPal soon.

As with other sites it is very important to keep your profiles up to date and to click on emails as soon as possible from SurveySpot. Surveys range in value from $1 to $10 and last from a single minute up to 30 minutes depending on the cash value. Upon the successful completion of each survey, you will also receive an entry into the $25,000 Grand Prize sweepstakes and even if you are disqualified you have a chance to play the Instant Win game, either the slot machine or scratch off ticket, and earn either five, 25 or 100 sweepstake entries into their various Instant Win sweepstakes as follows:

Thirty (30) First Prizes (10 per month): $250 Electronics Prize.
Thirty (30) Second Prizes (10 per month): $250 Video Prize.
Ninety (90) Third Prizes (30 per month): $100 Music Prize.
One hundred twenty (120) Fourth Prizes (40 per month): $100 Electronics Prize.
Ninety (90) Fifth Prizes (30 per month): $100 Video Prize.
Three hundred (300) Sixth Prizes (100 per month): $50 Electronics Prize.
One hundred fifty (150) Seventh Prizes (50 per month): $50 Music Prize.
One hundred fifty (150) Eighth Prizes (50 per month): $50 Video Prize.
Total ARV of all prizes: $100,000.

Survey Spot is known for sending many survey invitations for sweepstakes entries and my recommendation is that after you have established your credibility with SurveySpot over a few months and cashed out at least once, you no longer need to take surveys just for a sweepstakes entry; however, a few of these surveys will turn out to be product tests, invitations to lucrative Invoke Interactive panels or forums that pay monthly incentives for posting and completing various activities, so ignore these sweepstakes-only surveys at your own risk. The winner’s list is posted here: http://www.surveyspot.com/rewards.shtml .
Currently, SurveySpot is also running their immensely popular Spot the Winner football contest which has a weekly prize of $50, a monthly prize of $150 and an end-of-the-season prize of $500 to the person that picks the most winners of the weekly NFL football games. I am currently ranked 862nd in this contest.
