Single Mom, Double Pay - Get Paid Taking Surveys From Home!

By Hailey Gates

Being a single mom can mean never quite being able to catch up. You rob Peter to pay Paul, juggle an over full schedule between kids, work and maybe even school. Trying to fit in a second job seems impossible. There's an easy solution however - look for surveys to take for cash!

There are obvious reasons why getting paid to take surveys is so attractive. The first is that you can do it anytime, right from the privacy of your home. No transportation, no business casual, no daycare needs - just your time and your opinion. Companies all around the country are trying to find out what women like YOU want and need.

Survey taking is no more difficult than those quizzes in popular women's magazines; most of them ask you to pick your fave product, describe your reaction to a statement, or divulge where you find your best deals. This is the kind of stuff you tell your girlfriends for free - why not look for a survey to take instead?

First things first. You are going to need a separate email account - nothing fancy, just a place to get your survey notifications where they won't get mixed up with your other emails. Open one for your kids, too - many companies look for children's input! You can use a different name for your munchkins if you are worried about internet safety.

Registration on survey sites is easy, so pick out four or five to make sure you get access to the maximum amount of surveys to take. You will be using your email address and password you just picked out, and some will ask you to choose a username as well.

Last on the 'to do' list: fill out profiles. These are just to provide the survey sites with general information, so they can pre-qualify you by matching your demographic to the lists of surveys to take. Sometimes you can earn extra bucks or points toward a prize for each profile you complete.

Now all you have to do is sit back and wait for the notifications to come in. If you were smart and signed up with as many companies as possible, you should be receiving a good number of offers per day! The best part is that you can pace yourself and do them in your spare time. Nothing besides your computer and an honest opinion is required!

Any single mom with money worries can get paid taking surveys. It just takes a little time invested in getting registered and then the possibilities are endless. Some surveys pay as much as $25 or more, so you might even find it becoming a solid source of income!
