Default Get Paid To Try

Hello,

Is this a legit company? Has anyone done this? This site says you try a products and do surveys and get paid.

Paid Surveys | Paid Online Surveys | Get Paid To Take Surveys | Try Products - GetPaidToTry

Thanks in advance,
Linda

I've signed up for survey sites, but haven't made much money. Many times I don't qualify for the surveys, and that becomes a waste of time.

They look similar to other GPT sites like CashCrate or InboxDollars. It's tough to tell with these types of companies because some thrive and others fail. CashCrate and Inbox dollars have been around for years and seem to get decent reviews. If you check out the following website:

Survey Police - GetPaidToTry.com

You will see some pretty negative reviews of GetPaidToTry. Obviously everyone will have their own opinion, but it's just something to be aware of. Their affiliate program certainly looks interesting in terms of pay for just simple sign up leads, but I wouldn't be comfortable promoting something if it's not completely legit.

Jflats that is exactly my thoughts. I don't want to waste my time promoting something that I am unsure of. Which is why I come here to get everyone's opinions on it.

While it's probably "legit" in that they probably do what they say they do, the question to me is "is it a good idea?" And my answer would be no, because I think that you could put the time and effort into something that would likely be more profitable.

That being said, some people do surveys for fun and to get free products. Nothing wrong with that; just think of it as sort of a hobby rather than a business.

Agree with above, they will likely pay what they promise.

If it's free to join, you can give it a go. Be prepared for the hard part, though... driving traffic. Getting traffic to that link may be harder than you expect. That having been said, people who master that skill can make a lot of money even with survey/referral sites.

And then... when you master driving traffic... move up to higher paying affiliate programs, for sure!

This is called affiliate marketing.

Best wishes! Let us know how it goes!

I have tried sites like that one a few times and really it is a big waste of time ..You can make way more by promoting other businesses.

I have decided that this isn't worth my time to do. Thank you all for replying.
