Blog monetization is an important aspect of your online business. Here we would like to share information about Google Consumer Surveys. Google Consumer Surveys publisher network is open for sign up in U.K, USA and Canada, but Google has promised to provide this service to other countries too in near future.
Think of it like a site where you pay to get unrestricted access, but without having to pay actual money. Your visitors just have to answer a few short surveys in exchange for access to your content, and you earn money for each question answered.
More and more sites are adding paywalls to access their content, meaning you have to pay a one-time or subscription fee to read articles, watch videos etc. A good example is the Wall Street Journal.
Google Consumer Surveys are similar to paywalls in the way that they block users from accessing content. However, the only barrier to entry is answering a few survey questions. No one has to shell out their hard-earned money, but there is real potential here for website owners to earn extra money.
As the title says, it is true that you can earn from Google Consumer Survey just like the Google Adsense program.
If you own a blog or a website then you can become survey publisher showing surveys on your websites. When the visitor complete the survey on your website, you will be paid for it. The consumer survey works same like Adsense with the difference that Adsense helps to display ads while Google consumer survey displays survey box.
Adding just few lines of code on your website to appear survey box where visitors can read survey question and multiple answers for the questions. Once they answer survey question by choosing an answer, survey box disappears and visitor can read the content of your site.
Survey creators (much like advertisers) are charged 10 cents per survey, out of which 5 cents go to the website owner. So that's a 50/50 revenue sharing between Google and publishers. Now it is up to you how many surveys can you get filled. The larger your traffic, the greater the earning potential. Assuming that even 20% of your 100K/month visitors fill out the survey, you get an easy $1000 per month!
Google Consumer Surveys are easy to control and add to your site. You can choose where they appear and how often users are prompted to fill them out. You can also set how much content you want to make available, and how much of it you want to make accessible via filling out surveys.
There are some requirements in order to be accepted into this program. You need to have an AdSense account in good standing, an 18+ audience, and must follow Google’s Publisher Program Policies.
