Spider Metrix is an Australian based survey site.
Spider Metrix panel members are called “spiders” of course :). Spiders earn points by completing profiles and surveys. They also have weekly polls where spiders get 1 point for answering the poll, as well as highly interesting “spider voice” forum where you can submit entries and also earn points.
Spiders can redeem points for amazon gift vouchers, cash paid through Paypal, or donation to World Vision Australia.
I have been a “spider” for over 2 years, and I only received ONE survey from them, and I didn’t qualify. Of course I have spider points but it’s far from enough to cash out. I think it will take another several years for me to have enough points to get paid. They pay gift certificates or cash.
Spider Metrix seems have more surveys for spiders from countries other than US. I check their site from time to time, and notice that more surveys are available for spiders from Australia.
Spider Metrix is a special and seems interesting survey panel, however I would only recommend it to those who live in Australia. (I have removed this site from my USA, Canada or UK survey lists.)
UPDATE July 2020: I haven’t received any surveys from this site for a very long time, not sure if they are still active, although the website is up.
😀
I too agree with you guys. I have got Only one surveys yet. Not only that if my referral person got any surveys and if she / he wins that points is not coming into my account automatically
any of you commenters in australia. i want to know what the surveys are like in australia
I agree with you tomcate – I only got one more survey after writing this review, didn’t qualify..so basically I have not get to do any real paid surveys for them…Those spider points I have are all for profiles.. oh well.
yell I hear ya pittwantsme. 3 years is along time! In the last year I’ve had a chance to
take 3 or 4 of the USA surveys and I only got to finish 1 of them. They don’t seem to
have much to do with the US? They are not hard surveys to take at all. I wish they would hook up with a company here in the states so we could all have a better chance. (((NOT OTX))) 🙁
🙁 I’ve been a member of this ridiculous survey site for 3 years. Still don’t have enough points to “cash in” for a lousy $10. And, in all that time, was only sent one survey and didn’t qualify for it. Skip this site – Lightspeed pays much better.
Ha, I got a survey from Spider Metrix today! Didn’t qualify, but got 1 point! 😀
