Giving Redgage another shot

I've won a total of $60 on Redgage in the past.  I'm really desperate for Christmas funds right now, so I'm going back to a few sites I gave up on and honestly giving effort in making the money.  While on the site, I decided to just look around.  I found this link to an article about drug abuse that I wanted to share.

http://www.redgage.com/profile#rf:/links/beth811/understanding-drug-abuse-and-addiction.html

I've also really started trying hard at a few survey sites.  It's not so bad.  I'm pretty much learning the tricks of the trade, so to speak.  I finally started qualifying for surveys on opinion outpost which I'm pretty excited about.

Has anyone here ever heard of surveyspot or pandaresearch?  If so, do you know if these sites are legit?

I hope everyone's having a good earnings day.

Amy, Yes! I have heard of 'Surveyspot' and of 'PandaResearch'. they are both Ligit web-sites and I have used them. I haven't hear lately because I just haven't had the time.

Thank you so much! It's just such a letdown when you get funds built up and never get paid. Plus, sometimes those surveys drive me crazy. I get 15 or 20 minutes into one and then suddenly I don't qualify all of a sudden.

I hate when that happens and always wind up thinking that the survey people are fraudulent for waiting that long to say I don't qualify.

there was a post on surveyspot someone made yesterday, and they didn't have luck with it....well, they did but it took forever for their first cashout...good luck

Yes I am a member of both but don't spend a lot of time on them.

What is Redgage about?
Adelaide M. Dec 3, 2010, 9:46pm UTC
It's a site where you basically link content you have posted other places on the web, blogs, pictures, videos, websites. I cross post all the pictures and posts that I post here for additional views.

You get paid based on views (or if you miraculously get chosen to be featured) and can cash out when you get to $25. It took me about 6 months to get my first $25, but then I cash out about every 3 months now for $25.

Another tip, if you use Internet Explorer, change to Google Chrome or Firefox. I can't ever get Redgage to work with IE.
Sandy Moore Dec 4, 2010, 12:35am UTC
Thanks I appreciate it. Do you have a
link?
amy bryant Dec 4, 2010, 5:17pm UTC
Here's mine: http://www.redgage.com/?refby=headrickwife

In addition to what Adelaide mentioned, they also have a daily contest where you get points for sharing knowledge based facts, inviting friends, and mentioning any link that refers back to any page on the redgage site. But, you do have to go to your dashboard and point out to them that you did this or you won't get points. I've won twice in 6 months.

This is great. Thanks Amy.

I quit both those sites, they just want to promote other sites for you to buy things.

Thanks for posting this. Wishing you and your family a Wonderful Holiday Season!

I have not visited redgage in a while. I have not been able to cash out from that site but did find it useful to draw more views to items I posted here. FF

Here from FF. Good luck with your earnings!

Try Toluna.com if you have not already. In addition to surveys, you can go right on the homepage & vote on sponsored polls for points! Cashout is 60,000 [$20], & I have cashed out a few times with them. I also like i-Say and MySurvey. Are you on MyPoints? They don't do cash, but they do gift cards, I love that site! Global Test Market gives $50 per 1000 points, but I only cashout once or twice a year [but you may qualify for more surveys than I do]. Another site is Swagbucks [they give prizes]. You may be on these sites already, I'm not sure. But I know times are tough, especially around the holidays, so I wanted to help! :) I'm not a member of the two sites you mentioned, so I do not know anything about them.

As for Redgage, I still am unsure on whether or not to join myself. I heard there is a fee on the prepaid Visa card after the first six months, but I am having trouble finding out if that fee comes off of the card or if you ever have to pay it out of pocket. I'm not too worried about it coming off of the card, it's out of pocket I'm worried about. I mainly want to use the site to promote my articles.

Good luck!

I signed up but never stuck with it. Good luck ff

SurveySpot is legit, but they no longer pay as good as they used to (see my Nov. 28 post). I looked into Panda, and they are NOT a survey site. What they do is provide links to different sites, but they don't conduct the actual surveys. Plus you can't cash out until you've reached $100. I wouldn't bother with either.
August Lady Dec 12, 2010, 8:10pm UTC
I just quit SurveySpot last week after I cashed out to PayPal.

I haven't been to redgage since this laptop went down....I really do need to head back in...I've saved in favorites all my book reviews I've written here to share there....I have some photos I saved for redgage...and I need to link up the rest of my squidoo lenses too.

Hey,Marsha, did you notice that someone said you have to tell them when you have mentioned redgage in a link? On your dashboard.

I hope you have a good experience with survey sites. I wish I knew the secret becasue I never qualify.
Winona (the crazy rat lady) Dec 23, 2010, 5:13pm UTC
I've hardly spent any time at redgage, it doesn't seem to add up quick enough for me to EVER get a pay out.

The only survey site I get anything from is lightspeed, and I only get amazon cards from them.

Here from A Ten We Send.
DIANE D. Apr 18, 2011, 2:46pm UTC
I gave up on it.
Cindy B. Apr 20, 2011, 12:00am UTC
Never joined Redgage. =)
Heather E. Jun 25, 2011, 7:30pm UTC
I joined but have not been able to upload anything yet. I am not on my own computer right now so I cannot go check it.
Sue G. Jun 5, 2012, 5:39pm UTC
Joined daily survey panel. $1 cash out......Ask me...thought between that one and Opinion Outpost I could make about $30 a month or more...we'll see
