Read about the Toluna experience from a member!

David has had so much success earning money online, particularly via Toluna, that he started his own website. Paid Surveys Fanatic is a site decided to help other Australians earn money online with paid surveys. Read what David has to say about earning money with Toluna below.

When I was a student, I was always looking for legitimate ways to earn money online that were fast, easy and could allow me to work from anywhere. I wanted freedom. I was studying online and wanted to exercise the chance to work from anywhere around the world. Something you quickly learn while you’re traveling is that you need A LOT less money in other countries than Australia. I learned that I could live very comfortably in Thailand (1 bedroom apartment near the beach, 2 meals out everywhere and a weekly massage) on around $50 a day.

I initially started making money online with freelancing and doing other small jobs such as data entry for companies that were embracing the chance to offset their costs by hiring workers remotely. Although I had some success with this, the work was often difficult and required too much time and energy for what it was worth.

This is when I started to explore my options, and something that kept appearing was paid surveys. I had heard about others making money with online surveys and I was willing to try, so I gave it a go. I’m so glad I did.

Making money with Toluna has been one of the easiest and most pleasurable ways I’ve found to make money online. Money I earn from paid surveys now supplement my income nicely and mean that I can take extended breaks from work while still earning enough money online to fund my travel and I can easily transfer money straight from PayPal into my bank account.

I now get so many survey offers from Toluna that I’m rarely able to finish them all, and recently I was even offered the chance to take part in a study that earned me $35. Just shows that loyalty to the site pays off!

I’m a huge advocate of doing online surveys for pay, but I’m convinced to get the best offers, you need to give the best content. Here’s a few of my tips to help you succeed with making money with Toluna.

1. Read questions as thoroughly as possible. It can be tempting to skip through questions as quickly as possible, but inconsistencies will not work in your favour. When I started taking online surveys seriously, I saw a huge improvement in the amount of surveys I was offered to partake in.
2. Be super honest. It is clear that organisations are relying on the integrity of this data. Big decisions can potentially be made, and you’re being paid for a reason. Embrace this by being as open and honest as possible, even when it’s uncomfortable.
3. Learn how to read faster. If you can read faster while still fully understanding the question, you’ll be able to get more surveys done in less time.
4. Get in quick! Ensure you have notifications set so that you don’t miss out on of Toluna’s paid surveys.
