How To Get More Surveys On Google Rewards

So I signed up for Google Opinion Rewards, the day the app dropped. I received the initial non paid survey which was strictly political. I answered it with my views and beliefs, and I haven't received a survey since. On the other hand, I have a friend, who has the exact opposite political views as me. He signed up just a few days after me, and has received a survey almost on a daily basis. Am I the only person not receiving the surveys? Just wondering if anyone else has not received any! Could my answers have been too opinionated, or didn't meet some agenda? Maybe it's just the conspiracy theorist in me!

Yeah, I also haven't had any.

Kind of quiet lately...

I did the initial survey, and 2 or 3 since then, but I haven't seen anything come up in a while. I never saw them on an almost-daily basis though; maybe 1 a week. Being a somewhat new service/app, they might just need some time to drum up more clients to do surveys for.

I know it's a new service, but I went through the initial survey with my wife and answered on the other end of the political spectrum yesterday morning. And she's already received 2 surveys in less than 2 days. There definitely something to it! It's been well over a month and I haven't gotten anything! Wish I had known, I would have lied on the first survey! Lol

Well, that's strange...you may be onto something there. And yesterday afternoon got a one-question survey asking if I were male or female, paid 25 cents...thought that was weird too! Who can fathom Google's mysterious ways?

Signed up for this myself I received 1 survey got a dollar and nothing since. Been a week BTW.

Yeah -- I've had it for about two months now and only received about 3-4 surveys. Pretty slim pickings -- don't think any of us are going to get rich with Google Rewards any time soon! :laugh:

I'm pretty hesitant to all those surveys.

So I got my first survey today!! Earned a dollar!

Yeah if you're expecting to get more than like 5 dollars a year you'll probably be disappointed lol.

Weird. I've had maybe half a dozen or so. Of course it hasn't amounted to more than $2 or $3, but still for a free app here and there I'll do it.

Works for Me

I have made about 15-20 bucks since I signed up. I usually get 2-3 surveys each week. Two surveys last week and one so far this week.

still waiting

same here still waiting... pretty sure the pin point test group as they want ....

I got a survey right away and used to get 2-3 surveys a week, think I've made around $7 total. I've only received 1 survey the past 3 weeks. It was pretty sweet for awhile! Sounds like I'm one of the luckier ones!

I've tried several times but there was always a problem submitting my answers so I have $0 despite wasting time on this crap.

Remember that Google knows a lot about you.

You are a member of a particular demographic, with a particular consumer profile and a particular set of socio-political views. Google probably knows where you fit in these spectra better than you do.

Companies are paying Google to run these surveys for them, because Google has such good demographic data. They pick the groups of people for each survey based upon the demographic details the company paying for the survey.

So ... depending upon your particular profile, you can expect more or less surveys.

Personally, I am a 40-something, tech-savvy family man with liberal socio-political views and an "above average" income bracket. I got a bunch of surveys up-front (made five or six bucks I guess) and then they've thinned out quite a bit since then. I occasionally get "one and done" surveys that pay $0.25 ... I guess I should've chosen the other answer on those!

I also wonder if some battery apps might hamper its functionality. I run greenify and battery guru. Lately I noticed I often get a survey offer within a few hours of activating the app ... wonder if one Battery Guru might be preventing it from checking in occasionally...

I guess that makes sense. I got to $10 in credits pretty quick, enough to get the Groundspeak app (I sure as hell was not going to actually BUY it), then about $4 in credits until I have not gotten any in about a month or so.

I fit your profile for the most part, although I am pretty conservative and a bit of a cheapskate, although I do not use any battery apps.

The frequency of surveys has some dependency on your device. I have nexus and galaxy devices. Both have the same Google account but the nexus gets more surveys

I have hardly made 3 bucks in about 3 months, yet my mother has only been part of it for a little over a month and has already accumulated about 10 bucks. She brags almost daily about getting another ten to fifty cents. I have a feeling it has to do with her gender and possibly age.

Edit: looking at the reviews on play store, I've noticed more men with low ratings complaining about not getting surveys, while more of the higher ratings are women getting at least one a day.
