CashSurveyWizard – are they the real deal?

Online surveys pay moneyFinding a credible online survey provider that actually meets its promises of consistent jobs and strong profits is rare, so finding CashSurveyWizard was a breath of fresh air for us.

We have always been a bit skeptical towards survey affiliate networks in the past. After all there has got to be a catch to earning $25 for filling out a 10 minute survey, but as we browsed through CashSurveyWizard they quickly put us at ease in proving they were a credible network.

Beyond their $3,500 a month cashflow claims and connections to Sony, Ford and Nike, they made one point clear from the start: that they only want the best reviewers. Unlike typical sites who proclaim ‘all are welcome start filling out surveys today’ CashSurveyWizard ask that only individuals who are genuinely interested in committing to a few hours of work a week join their forum.

A claim that was remarkably refreshing, new and instantly set us at ease.

This point was further proved through their online member’s area, earning calculator and testimonials. For a one off joining fee of $59.95 (or currently $29.97 until February 26th) members can benefit from hundreds of new surveys every month priced between $20- $150 (latter price based on focus group surveys) or get their money back!

Their 8 week money back guarantee was particularly appetizing giving you the freedom to try their network, gain results and if you are not satisfied get your money back no questions asked.

Yet the real selling point for us has to be the other freedoms CashSurveyWizard can offer you as an affiliate: no skills, no website builds or maintenance, no products, no financial risk and no targets… filling out surveys can truly providing a supplemental income to your current salary for as little as a few hours a week.

Certainly a product worth promoting – it is incredibly easy to do.

time to upgrade?

Anthony over at bloggingdosh has an article up right now asking if its time to upgrade to wp 2.3. So far, I have one blog running the new 2.3 code and I’m not too impressed. The functional gain isn’t too much compared with other versions and the functionality that is gained was already covered by several wp plugins which actually do the job a little better.

Not only that, but I’ve heard that upgrading from 2.x to 2.3 is a pain in the ass (I don’t know of anyone who has had an easy go of it…) for now, I’ll stick with what I’ve got.
