 I think I've had one prize draw survey a month from this site, all of which gain you an entry into their prize draw sweepstakes. NPDOR surveys are always brief in my experience so whether you're interested in prize draw based surveys or not, you're not exactly asked to go out of your way here

 MyOffers ask you to complete brief online market research surveys to win cash and prizes. With MyOffers you do not have to wait for a survey invitation, you simply log-in, find the prize you want from their prize catalogue and answer the brief accompanying survey to be entered to win it! Survey reward prizes typically include luxury holidays, new cars, thousands of pounds sterling in cash as well as smaller consumer items and its so easy to enter it really is worth taking half an hour out or so of you day once a month to enter them.

 Trendscan are a German market research company...hence some of the dodgy translations on the site lol. They have 2 paid survey panels, one for surveying the opinions of adults and the other interested in the opinions of children. Answering market research surveys for either panel earns you Amazon vouchers. A typical paid survey takes around 15 minutes here and earns you 'Trendchips' which can be exchanged for Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.de gift vouchers.
|
 Lightspeed typically send out 1 or 2 surveys a month and additional "quick match" surveys to match you with future paid surveys they have on offer. Every online survey you take will earn you credits which can be exchanged for cash and prizes.

Visitor Friendly is similar to Site-Reporter (you evaluate website performance in mystery shopping style studies) but has been in business a lot longer. You seem to get paid around £2.50 here for every website you evaluate and report back on but to be honest, I've been a member for 2 years now and have received just one assignment so perhaps it's not worth bothering with. Then again, maybe my demographic profile just doesn't match up with what their clients want so you still might be interested in giving them a try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained... ;o)

 Consumer House is very similar to MyOffers but in the case of this one you are put inside a virtual house and can wander around selecting the items you'd like to win! Yup, walk into the study, eye up the computer, click on it and there's a brief survey questionnaire to answer to get the chance to win it! Consumer House is quite fun but if you'd rather just click through a list then the option is there as well. Consumer House are permission marketeers so make sure if you'd rather not be contacted by competition sponsors that you check the box which prevents them doing so

 This one is another similar to GoZing in that it wants your opinions on upcoming movies at the cinema. The difference is there are no trailers to watch here but rather you are asked some quick survey questions about what's coming out soon and whether you're interested in seeing it. You can earn Amazon gift vouchers here by taking part and you can earn more by referring friends to the site.

 NFO(National Family Opinion Panel) have been conducting market research since the 30's in the United States and their online survey panel is one of the largest and most professional market research companies there is. NFO Europe is also very active and will reward paid survey participants with high street shopping vouchers for their time. You also often get paid to test new products as well so it's quite good for a freebie or two as well. ;o)

 YouGov are a pretty heavyweight UK political and social affairs survey polling company. You may have heard them mentioned on the major news channels throughout the recent Iraqi conflict as their statistics were used to poll the thoughts and feelings of the UK population on the progress and popularity of the war. Their findings are also often quoted in the broadsheets too. Members of YouGov get paid upwards of 50p per paid survey poll taken but should be warned that there is a minimum cash in level of £50 which can take some time to reach. There are also additional survey prize draws worth hundreds of pounds sterling as well and if nothing else, you'll not find an easier way to get your voice heard by those sitting on the political throne.

 Site-Reporter is looking for survey panelists to evaluate and test various aspects of their client's websites. You visit, take a look around and report back on anything you particularly liked, had difficulty with or would like to see improved and they pay you for your feedback. Great for you because you earn a couple of quid for each site report taken and great for the company as they learn what might be driving their customers away. You earn around £2 (British pounds sterling) per report here.

 Advisory Panel is yet another prize draw based survey panel HOWEVER, before all you dissenters click away in disgust, their prize draws are most definitely winnable! I have won $75 from here myself and know plenty of others who have also been lucky. They give out hundreds of prizes a month and they ensure that survey groups are small(100 or less) to give you a real chance of winning.

 Take part in Marketscore's panel and they'll give you a free internet accelerator which they claim will increase your internet speed by up to 75%!
|
 If you consider yourself a bit of a techie then you'll love this panel. Socratic Forum tends to send out technology and work-based surveys which are a little heavy to complete but are rewarded well for doing so. Recently they send me a £15 Amazon voucher for my last completed survey.

 How does getting a free CD or two for listening to new music and completing very brief surveys about them sound to you? Well, that's what participants at songpeople.com are getting. I've had 5 free CDs from these guys just for listening to half an hour of new music!
