Valued Opinions is a market research panel that rewards you for participating in market research surveys. For each survey you complete you will receive an award that will typically be between $2 and $5, except for specialty surveys that can be worth as much as $50. Once your account reaches $20 you will be able to redeem your reward in the form of a gift certificate from a selection of popular retailers. Like all of the panels listed here, membership is free.

The incentives range from $1 up to $8 (for me) on topics suh as consumer goods, entertanment, personal care, food and beverages. I have reached the $20 minimum pay out point three times since I joined on February 18, 2008 and I will cash out again for another $20 Amazon gift card any day now. You do have to wait 28 days (or longer) for the incentives to be credited and occasionally you will have to contact their excellent support staff .

Sponsored Tweets was launched by IZEA, the company that has brought us PayPerPost. Think of Sponsored Tweets as a PayPerPost for Twitter. Sponsored Tweets will connect you with advertisers and they will pay you to Tweet their message. There are quite a few Twitter advertising platforms where you can make money from Twitter but this is the best one yet, especially since it is coming from IZEA. I had heard about them launching this platform and I signed up as soon as I was able to. So I have been using Sponsored Tweets for a few weeks now and here is what I think so far.

Easy To Use, Full Disclosure:

once you signed up you can click on the opportunities tab at the top and see if you have any opportunities you can take. If you have one it will be listed there, also the @spontwts bot will send you a direct message on Twitter letting you know you have an offer for a sponsored tweet. If you have an offer you can go to it and see what they want you to tweet. If you decide to take the opportunity either a tweet will be made up for you or you can make one up depending what the advertiser wants. Also you have to choose a disclosure method, either something like “(sponsored)” or “tweet sponsored by”. IZEA is known for a great disclosure policy and Sponsored Tweets is no different.

A Referral Program:

When Sponsored Tweets first launched it did not have a referral program, but now it does! They way it works is for everyone you sign up you get 10% of Sponsored Tweets portion of revenue for each successful transaction that they make. Sounds like a good way to increase your earnings with Sponsored Tweets!
