There are a ton of surveys for money websites out there and some are better than others. If you are looking into doing surveys and offers, why not go with one of the ones that has the best track record? CashCrate has well over a million members and they pay right on time every month. You can go into the forum and read the “Payment” thread to prove that to yourself.

I got started making money way back in 2007 on CashCrate. Their check was the first check I ever got from any online website. It was a real check that I took to my bank and cashed just like I do today. For more proof of how legit they are, poke around my blog and you will see videos and pictures of some of my latest checks.

CashCrate is NOT a job but it is one of the few online surveys for money sites that allows people under 18 to sign up. With your parent’s permission, anyone over 13 and can sign up and start making some extra cash.

Lots of teenagers have signed up to CashCrate and make anywhere from $20 to $100 a month doing the surveys, offers, and referring others. If you can learn how to refer others to the site, you can make even more than that. Starting a blog (like this one) is the best way to refer people although there are lots of other things you can do if you think creatively.

CashCrate isn’t the only survey site out there but it is one of the most popular and reliable. After about 4 years with them, they have never missed sending me my monthly check and now I even get one every week. I have the proof to show that they pay real money to their members so take a look at that.

Student jobs in 2011 aren’t going to get any easier to find but that doesn’t mean you should give up looking. Always keep a positive attitude and keep applying for real jobs. On the side you can try things like CashCrate to make a little extra money and if you are good with computers you might even start your own blog and try to get some referrals to sign up under you.

I started 4 years ago knowing nothing about making money online and having never made a penny. Now I’m getting big checks from CashCrate and I am very thankful that I never gave up even when I wasn’t making much.

New promotions are continually in the works with CashCrate as they will have their 3rd LIVE event where the top 10 people who complete the most offers in a 4 hour period win additional cash prizes. The next live event happens tomorrow May 10th!

A new way to make money has just been added and that is by watching videos. Combine that with all the other things you can do on CashCrate and you have a great place to get started making money online.

If you are looking for the best surveys for money site to start either doing offers or getting referrals, CashCrate is the best choice in my opinion because they have a good, easy to understand interface and you know you will get paid.

Nine times out of ten there are newbies on it who get all excited because they put up a one page website on a free blogging platform like Blogger or Webs.com. They have copied and pasted the their whole page from the CashCrate website with some tutorials or tips and tricks. They then tell the reader they can make a lot of money by signing up.

On the forum this type of person is often complaining that their site has been up for a day, a week, or a month and it gets no traffic and no referrals. They are complaining because they don’t know what is wrong.

Well let me tell you what is wrong: You put up a stupid one page website that has the same regurgitated information on it that 1,000′s of other one page spam sites have. Yes, your site is spam and even if you could get someone to go to your site there is no way they would ever stay for more than 1 second.

You provide no picture proof. You provide no video proof (CashCrate payment proof). You provide no story. You provide no originality. Your blog has no character.  You provide no reason for anyone to sign up and your blog is nothing more than one page of spam. That is why you will never get any referrals even if you did know how to get traffic to your blog.

Making money from referrals for online surveys for money is NOT EASY like you want it to be. You need to learn how to get traffic to your blog and those people you get have to want to make money.

But before you spend any time learning how to do that, you need to learn how to write something that people will actually want to read. You need to learn how to sell things….it doesn’t just happen magically. Most of all you need to make some money with CashCrate yourself first so you can prove to people it is legitimate. If you can’t prove to them you make money on it, why on earth would they ever sign up?

CashCrate is something you can sign up for free and they will never ask for your money. Now, you can do paid offers that do require a credit card but THAT IS YOUR CHOICE AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO THEM.

Look around my site to see that I have indeed made very good money on CashCrate. I have done it all for free and never once paid anything. You can read my blog here from start to finish to see how I do it but you have to read and learn before you can make the kind of money I have been able to make.

The bottom line is though that CashCrate is one of the totally legitimate websites where you can get paid for surveys and doing other things. If you want to make money online, you have to start somewhere and Cash Crate is a great place to start. It all begins when you get your first real check they will send you after you make your first $20.00. It is at that point that a light bulb will go off in your head as you realize that it is real money and that you can make more of it every month!

The CashCrate site is now easier than ever before to use and navigate and now is the best time to join as there will be 7 more days of promotions coming our way. And if you want to learn how to make referrals to CashCrate or any of the other surveys for money sites, just read my blog from the first post I made on March 3, 2009. Everything you need to know to get started making referrals the right way is in this blog and it is all for free. So sign up and get started reading how to make money with referrals on CashCrate.

You can see by the picture of my check below what kind of money you can make on CashCrate and you will get paid as soon as you reach the $20.00 mark. My check comes in the US mail like clockwork every month and for 4 years now, it has never been late. You can also choose to get paid via direct deposit to your bank account if you like and that is even quicker than the check.

Please watch the video below of my most recent January 2012 check (I covered my name for privacy) and below that is a picture of another check I got last year:

There is a great forum on CashCrate that will help you with any questions you may have and everyone there, including the moderators are very positive and helpful. If you ever get stuck, the forum is the place to go to get all your answers and to see how others are doing.

You can make money by doing surveys, free trial offers, signing up for things, getting referrals, and by doing paid offeres (totally your choice). Additionally you can win points playing games and use those points to get gift cards from Amazon, iTunes, and many other retailers.

CashCrate is the very first place I ever got a check for anything I did online. I am still there today, as you can see, and they now have over 1 million members. When you try to make money online, there are a lot of choices and a lot of scams but in my opinion, CashCrate is the best survey site out there and I have the payments to prove it!

So, my question for you is: how much time and how hard are you willing to work? The answer you give will depend on many things of course but you should know that if you are not willing to put in the time, you will never be a success at making money online.

So how do you make money online if you live in the U.K., Singapore, the Philippines, India, or Malaysia? How do you make money if you live in any one of the European Union countries and would like to take advantage of the sheer numbers of buyers we have in America?

This whole blog is how to get CashCrate referrals and anyone from any country can do it. You can see my check proofs here (CashCrate check proof ) and ANYBODY FROM ANY COUNTRY CAN DO THIS TOO! There are already lots of international users and checks get sent around the world every month.

If you live in another country and you join, you won’t have many offers to do BUT you can refer other people and get full credit. There are many members from Canada and Australia who are very successful at making money with CashCrate by making referrals. I am sure there are people from other countries as well.

The best way to make referrals for CashCrate is to have at least one blog. You need to learn how to write original content on your blog and you need to get backlinks to move it up to the first page of Google for the terms you are targeting. It seems hard at first but anyone from Great Britain, the Philippines, Singapore, Canada, India, Malaysia, or any country can do it.

Please read my whole blog which gives you all the information you need to get started. Once you learn how to get CashCrate referrals, you can make a lot of money if you work hard. None of it is easy and you really do need to be able to write in English to get American people to sign up. You see, only referrals from the U.S. count so you need to target Americans.

Please read my blog from my first post. You need to go to the bottom of each page and click on the link that says “Older Entries” till you get to the first page. Read from my first post and you will discover how you can make money with CashCrate surveys by making referrals. As you can see by my checks, it can be quite profitable and all international users can do it too.
