Tasks vs Surveys

[almorin]

What are people thoughs about earning money through tasks vs surveys.

I know the surveys probably pay more, but you can get disqualifed for a lot of surveys.  Do some people out there feel they can make more in a month doing tasks vs surveys.

What's a good ratio for tasks of payout vs time to complete and success rate??

I have never liked the tasks as they seem too time consuming tedious.  The surveys are quite frustrating because often my demographics and such will disqualify me so I only qualify for a few.  But, my best survey day I made about $8 just doing all the daily surveys available.  It just takes time and plenty of patience.  Patience unfortunately is not my strong suit.

I tend to fall back on the daily 2 cent email, 5 cents worth of videos and or loyalty radio, and 15 cent paid to click to ensure payout due to the unpredictability of qualifying for surveys.

I think tasks are more tedious so I try not to do them unless they're really easy. For surveys, you get disqualified a lot but at least you get 1 cent for trying.

So I prefer surveys because they're usually faster and require less work.

I do survey!

I have tried some TASKS but it really need patience.

I would much rather do surveys.Most of the money I make on FC comes from surveys.I attempt the surveys every day.When it comes to tasks,I'm a cherry picker.The only time I even do tasks anymore is if I read a post on the Offers discussion board about a really quick,easy one.Most tasks aren't worth the time I would have to spend on them.

I always do the dailys, and always try for the surveys, some days are better than others. The tasks are a fall back for me, if I find myself getting really close to my cashout but short then I will try to do some of the tasks ti get me to my $25, otherwise, I find the tasks to be tedious and very time consuming for what you earn, but that is just my opinion. I am glad they are available when I have to go to them though.

It sounds like most people who have replied so far do the tasks near the end of the list after other ways to make money are exhausted in any given day.  Yet there are those on the Task leaderboard who make a good amount each month, but how much effort, time and skill is required to get on top of the leaderboard???

Looking at the leaderboard, there are people who already have made over $50 from tasks alone. I have noticed there are more higher paying tasks in the middle of the night/early morning and I would assume some of them can do the foreign language tasks as well

I have done a few tasks and my opinion is that the survey's are much more worth my time. I have done a few tasks that took me over 30 minutes and was paid 5 cents. I much prefer to do a 5 minute survey and get 35 cents.

yes surveys take way less time and pay so so much more! work smart not hard as what i say

[ccandpam]

I prefer surveys over tasks. Most of the tasks are so long and hard and it does not pay well at all. I make much more with the surveys.

I think both are good. Some people don't like tasks, but the key is to practice and learn them. If you do that, then you'll know which tasks you like to do and which ones you want to stay away from. Eventually you'll get faster with them to, there are some really easy ones out there. I think you should do a little bit of both. You can make more money and you won't get bored since you'll be changing it up some.

For me Surveys are more interesting than Tasks and normally take less time to complete.  In addition the pay out is greater than completing Tasks.    

[Sendmicheck]

I do the tasks most of the time.  The surveys are good but doesn't work for me.
