Advantages: Get paid to provide feedback and completing surveys
Disadvantages: Need paypal for this site to be effective for yourself
-------------------
Introduction:
-------------------
Website: www.lightspeedpanel.com
Lightspeedpanel is another one of those internet sites that pays its members for completing surveys online. Since there are millions of these sites around and some are not legit. I will cover my personal experience with this site for others the benefits of the audience who is reading this.
------------------------
Is This Site legit?:
-------------------------
The First point I am sure anyone wants to know is that 'does this site really pay its members'. And the Simple answer is 'Yes'. There are no catches to this site and it purely is a site that pays you for taking surveys.
------------------------------------------------- -----------
How Often and How much Does the Site Pay?:
------------------------------------------------- -----------
The system for this site is that you must accumulate lightspeed points and turn them into gifts or money. The site pays through PAYPAL or you can turn in your points for other items such as electronical goods. Although I myself prefer the money payment.
So how hard is it to accumulate these points then I hear you say. The fact is you can make a steady amount each week if you complete all the surveys that come your way. On average, if you manage to complete around 5-6 surveys you can sitting well in place for the most profitable payment taking time factor into account.
The best option in my opinion is to accumulate enough points to claim £5 through paypal. As the higher amounts take longer to achieve and its worth getting your money fast if you are an impatient person like myself. However, with that said if you are patient and want to achieve the maximum amount possible, then you can save up the points and claim the higher Amounts which work out to be lower in point values but does take alot more time to accumulate. So its a matter of striking a balance between claiming and waiting.
On Average, I recieve around 4 surveys every 3 days. Thats very good considering I can earn an extra £5 every few days as the extra little money help funds my online activities.
When I first joined the Site, I didnt recieve any surveys until 2 weeks later. So do not be discouraged if you dont start seeing regular surveys until later on.
The Site also offers a referrals system, but like usual I will not deal with this aspect as I dont normally refer anyone to the site.
---------------------------------------------
How long does each survey take?:
---------------------------------------------
On average each survey will take anywhere between 20-30mins.
You are required to take a screener before going onto the actual survey.
However with the information you have provided them, mostly the servers that come your way are already screened to fit your life style, so just provide accurate information otherwise you maybe screened out of the survey.
Once you have started a survey, you cannot continue it at a later date. So you must complete it in one sitting otherwise you will not get your points.
The surveys require you to provide opinions on products. Some just require you to tick boxes while others ask you for your opinion on products which require you to write a few sentences. On a rare note, there was one time so far that I was required to watch a video and provide my feedback on it.
--------------
Summary:
--------------
This site truly is a good find as its payments for under an hours work each day does tend to help my online activities.
It isn't a site that will make you rich, or a site that can provide you with a daily income. However, its worth joining up with them (since its free) and see the cash just roll into your paypal accounts.
I highly recommend only participating in this site if you have a verified paypal account. However, if you want to sign up otherwise for the other items that are available, please feel free to do so. But be warned that if your aim is the electronical goods. They take around 30days to be delivered.
While paypal is paid within 1-2 business days from submitting the claims.
Overall I will give this site a 9/10. It doesn't score perfect score as the pay-out is just a bit low and getting screened out of surveys is annoying.
Thank You For Reading. Any Questions, please feel free to ask.
Empowering.
Summary: 8/10 - Worth looking into for the extra cash
