- Do you have a webpage where survey panel members can go anytime to take online surveys for cash?
We send out email invitations for online surveys for all countries. For some countries, survey panel members can also login and take online surveys everyday for money.
- Why is it important to be honest and accurate when you complete the survey panel member registration form?
We use the information from the completed survey panel member registration form (such as your gender, age, interest in particular products, services, geographic location, type of employment, etc.) and the client's survey sample criteria to randomly select participants (survey panel members) for every paid online survey or e-research study.
- What is involved in online surveys for the researcher?
In order to research opinions people have, how they behave, or what their social status is, one usually must complete the six activities listed with short narrative below. Principally, there are two types of online social, market research and economic studies. Online surveys can be used to estimate how some group of people with certain characteristics, like age, gender, income, location, or the like think and behave. This type of research uses online survey samples and make some kind of estimate for the online population or those who are not online and is called quantitative research (uses quantities, like amount of money, education, or the like). The other type of research study is called qualitative study because it seeks to understand some social, consumer or other economic activity or phenomena. It is associated with online interviews (surveys with many branches) online focus groups, focus groups, personal histories, and uses conversational information rather than collects numerical information.
The six activities necessary to complete quantitative survey research are:
1 Research Design – Research Design is the process of developing ideas, theories, concepts and and their operationalization in terms of testable hypotheses.
2 Sampling – Sampling is the process of selecting participants (respondents or interviewees) who may fit some criteria (for example age, gender, income, state or town, have certain health problems, or use mobile phones). In order to estimate what the general population with the similar characteristics might do, think, buy, or hold what opinion, random sampling provides a method to make these estimates. For online general population the same survey sampling procedure applies.
3 Questionnaire – A questionnaire (online web survey or paper) provides the researcher with a method to collect numerical information on topics of interest. Usually, some introduction is provided so the respondent understands what the questionnaire is about and can make a decision whether they are competent to answer the questions that will be asked. Some studies, which use a questionnaire, are very short. Some can last an hour or more. Typically, online questionnaires seldom take more that 5 to 30 minutes to complete.
4 Data Collection – Data collection is the method of retrieval of the information. Online surveys usually rely on emailing panel members an invitation to participate in the survey (evite) that explains the purpose of the survey. As the member is answering the questions, the questions are being recorded at the website. Once the survey is closed, the researcher can download the data and begin data analysis.
5 Data Analysis – In order to understand, how and what the data collected relate to the theories, concepts, and hypotheses, the researcher must analyze the data to make comparisons and estimates from the data collected. The best procedure is to “run frequencies” first to find out whether the data are skewed, grouped, or otherwise fail to fit the normal curve assumption or many statistical tests. An example of a frequency is the number of persons for each age starting with the lowest age to the highest age. If the frequency data fit the normal curve, for example using a histogram, then statistics relying on the normal curve can be used. Otherwise, other methods, principally Chi-square can be used to estimate whether the data from the survey can be used to estimate the population from which the sample was taken.
6 Reporting – Once a researcher completes the analyses, a report is written to explain, interpret, and evaluate the entire study. If others unacquainted with the study are to use the study results, a factual, concise, and understandable report should be written. For more information see http://www.streamlinesurveys.com/Streamline/SurveyResearchBooks.htm for books on this topic.
- Why is it important to participate in the paid online survey when you are selected and sent an email invitation?
For every study the survey sample (the selected participants) is a very important for representation of the survey population and overall success sometimes measured in the survey completion rate. In general, higher completion rates give more confidence in the survey results. Therefore, anytime we send you an email invitation, please try to take the survey.
- When I clicked on the survey URL, I got the message "page not found".
This is due to email clients adding lines breaks to your email messages, causing the link to be terminated prematurely. First, try to copy and paste the entire link (without line breaks) into your browser's address bar. If you continue to have difficulty accessing the survey or e-research site, please email info@e-research-global.com immediately.
- When do I receive an email invitation to take an online survey or participate in e-research?
We offer online survey and e-research services for clients who ask us to provide participants with particular characteristics they are interested in, such as gender, age, etc. Since e-Research-Global uses random sampling for selection of participants, we cannot predict when you will be asked to fill out an online web survey or participate in other types of e-research.
If you want to increase your chances of taking surveys and earning some money, go and sign up for free (no registration fee) as some other companies also doing surveys.

Remember, paying a registration fee usually means the company makes it money on fees not surveys. A reputable company charges no fees to sign up for surveys. If there is a company that asks you to pay, do NOT register with them.
- How do paid online surveys work?
The online surveys invitations we send you are from us for our clients who are businesses, college and university faculty, graduate students and other online survey sampling and marketing research firms. Sometimes our survey clients pay us directly and we pay you through PayPal or they pay you directly though PayPal for completing the survey.
- Should I be alert for survey scams?
Always be alert for Survey Scams - A Recent Example.
www.e-Research-Global.com has received a report from a valued source that an individual or a group of individuals are posing as a different online survey and market research firm. They have been sending substantial checks in the mail along with a letter which includes the logo of this firm. Instructions in the letter direct recipients to cash the check, retain a portion of the funds for participating in a "mystery shopping" research project and to wire the remaining cash to a different account. Please be aware, www.e-Research-Global.com and other best practices firms have never sponsored such activities and note well that this is a scam intended to take your money!
- I haven’t received any email invitations lately asking me to complete a survey. What should I do?
Please make sure that info@e-research-global.com and survey@pixi.com is added to your email safe-list (non-spam). Also login the panel member area and update your personal information.
- What is country geotargeting for online surveys?
Most companies online survey systems use geotargeting. Geotargeting is used to make sure that the country where the survey participants are located is in fact that country. To do this, the survey participant's computer IP address is used. For example, if one has a USA IP address and the survey is for USA participants, only those persons will see the survey. Persons who say they live in USA based on their registration form answer, but their IP address is not for USA, will not see the survey. It is important to always provide the country you live in and is the same country for your computer internet provider.
- What is a survey router?
A survey router directs a participant to the next available survey. e-Research-Global does NOT use survey routers. We send email inviations to a survey which is available (live). Some companies allow you to be routed to another survey, if the survey you were selected to participate is over quota (enough responses, for example from men) or already closed at the time you clicked on the survey link. Some companies just list survey routers, so you can take a survey and be submitted for a sweepstakes award. If you are interested in these types of surveys as well, click here
- I tried to take a survey and said did not qualify.
Besides the information we collect to send you surveys which you may qualify, some clients has additional criteria/parameters/constraints on who can take the survey. We cannot ask all these questions in advance so that when a survey is available you will qualify each and every time.
- Why is my member participant award a little less than what than what was indicated.
We use PayPal.com to send member awards. PayPal charges a small transfer fee of 2% to 3% of the total award. This PayPal fee is required to physically transfer money to your PayPal account. PayPal uses email notification of payment to you, and pays you. This method of online payment is inexpensive and secure.
- I have a problem with a survey.
If you have problems with any of our surveys, please contact and provide some details on the survey title, date and time, and details on the problem.
- Where are the Surveys?
We offer the opportunity to participate in more than 900 different online surveys. It is difficult to know which members are selected because each client or partner will have different requirements for the survey and data needs.
For example, an online survey in food can be directed to a different age group or country different from yours. We hope this helps you understand. We try to do our best every day; but whom we send surveys depends on the needs of our customers and partners, and needs vary from time to time.
When a questionnaire survey of e-Research-Global is completed, you will receive an email describing the study as payment, length of time to complete, and the subject sample. You are paid shortly after the survey closes.
- Do both e-Research-Global and e-RG/Elite send out surveys
We offer the opportunity to participate in more than 900 different online surveys.

- Every time I try to complete a survey, I receive a message which says, "SECURITY ERROR" or "blocks" me.
“Security error" cmay mean the survey is NOT suited for you. The "security error" or "blocked" message also occurs when trying to cpmplete take survey, and the Client does not accept. There is nothing we can do in both instances.
- Why do some surveys appear in my member account for some areas and not other areas for surveys? Why was a survey never sent to my member account?
This depends on two main factors, country and language the client choses for each survey.
- Why do I receive an error from the server error or why does the screen become "black" or why does the screen stop showing the survey?
You should contact your Internet Service Provider as we do not control your server. However, If you are in a survey and get server error, could be the Client's server which the survey is on. There is nothing we can do here.
- I am receiving my surveys in wrong language.
For example, "I understand English rather than Arabic. Kindly send me surveys in English." In this example, you need to delete/unsubscribe/remove this member account which is not in your language, Arabic, and register again in English.
- I am unable to complete the registration form.
Usually, means you did not answer a question. You need to check your answers. Or there is something wrong with your system device.
- I am trying to update all of my details in the categories; health, household, car, etc. But when I click on the category, the folder opens but nothing happens. No questions appear. What is the problem?
For some countries/languages, we do NOT have additional details for you to add in Profile area. As more surveys by clients are requested for these categories, we will add your additional Profile questions for you to answer to better serve you with paid surveys.
- I wish to change my e-Research-Global login email address. How do I do it?
Login to your member account and replace the old email address with your new email address and save.
- I receive surveys in my email account, but when I complete the survey, I cannot see the survey amount rewarded when I login to my member account.
You need to examine the email invitation to see which panel the survey is from (e-Research-Global or e-RG/Elite) and then login to that panel. For example,
If you belong to both e-Research-Global panel and e-RG/Elite panel also owned by us, use the your correct email and password for e-Research-Global.com panel and in the member survey area, you can then login to the e-RG/Elite panel using the correct email address and password which may be same or different email address and/or password..
If you only belong to the e-RG/Elite panel only, please register as member of e-Research-Global.com panel in language of your country (one of our 36 languages), and then in member survey area, login to e-RG/Elite panel using your e-RG/Elite panel email and password.
The only other explanation is that the Client did not accept your survey. Survey may have timed out or there was more to the survey and you thought you had completed, or you had more than one member account and the survey was a duplicate. In all these cases and related cases, there is nothing we can do.
