Are you up for a challenge?

What do you get when you combine taking surveys as a side hustle and the Medium challenge to write 30 articles in 30 days? My own challenge of taking 300 surveys in 30 days — 30 surveys didn’t sound as impressive.

I entered the world of surveys about two months ago to see if it was worth it and even wrote an article about my first week.

What I Found After a Week of Taking Surveys

One app, in particular, called Qmee stood out amongst the rest due to how easy it was to make money on it. I decided to continue my use of it, along with four other survey apps, to see what I could earn in one month.

The rules of the challenge were simple:

1. Do $10 worth of surveys per day with Qmee — primarily targeting the ones in the $1.50 range.
2. Attempt at least 1 survey per day with each of the other four survey apps

This averaged out to around 10 surveys per day. These are my experiences, the good and the bad, with the various survey apps over the 30-day period.
