Every month I publish my survey income reports which document how much I make from taking surveys and recommending others to survey sites on my blog.
These income reports are here to show you where exactly I am making the most money, and with which survey sites.
Also in these monthly income reports will include updates to the website for the last month, which survey sites I liked the best in the past month, along with what you can expect to see on Survey Chris in the coming month.
I hope that these monthly reports will inspire you to see how much you can add onto your monthly income by utilizing online survey sites, and see where you should be directing your time and energy when it comes to taking surveys.

For July, there were a couple stand-out survey sites that I made the most money on. And this month, I actually came across a company that is now one of my favorite sites to use. It is called Swagbucks, and is so extensive and such a great way to make money, that I wrote three articles on it.
If you want to make the most money with surveys, you will want to sign up for multiple companies so you never run out of surveys to take.
The top ones I recommend from this month are (the same as last month, as they are still my favorites):
- Swagbucks
- Opinion Outpost
- Ipsos i-Say
- CashCrate
What to Expect for August
Kindle Book: The Kindle Book is the biggest news for this upcoming month. It is a collect of all my knowledge, the best sites, and the best strategies to get you on your way to earning your first $1,000 with survey websites. I am looking forward to releasing it, and if you'd like to be one of the first to hear about and be able to get it for free (limited time only), sign up for my mailing list.
Survey Reviews: For August, I will be rolling out as many surveys reviews as possible.
Blog Posts: I will be posting a bunch of articles this month to help you get the surveys you want, and to help you find which ones are best for you.
My July Income Breakdown
So here is the part you came here for, to see exactly how much I am making with each company. For the month of July, here is how I did:
- CashCrate: $35.73
- Opinion Outpost: $16.60
- Ipsos i-Say: $18.60
- iPoll: $5.40
- Vindal Research: $3.90
- Swagbucks: $26.43
- Fusion Cash: $1.75
- PineCone Research: $4.25
This all combines for a monthly total of $112.66
For June, I made $100.63
I made $12.03 more dollars this month than last month. That is a small increase, but I think it will continue to grow from here.
Things to Note for July
July was more than June, but less than May. May was a good month, especially since it was the month that I launched this site. However, one thing that skewed May's income is that I announced the launch of this site on my personal blog. This sent over a lot of traffic that boosted my income, since I get money from taking surveys as well as recommending them to people.
Another reason July wasn't a big month is that I only had one site to recommend. While I do make money when you click on my sign up links (and I really appreciate it), I only had one site to recommend this month. Since I actually try out these sites, I do spend time on sites that don't actually pay out, so then I don't recommend them, even though I could get paid to do so.
Also in July, I didn't create any new videos on YouTube. Since those are good reviews and send traffic to the site, I would like do more for August, and add them to the reviews on the site.
I also spent time writing the Kindle eBook, which I am very excited to launch this next month.
About My Survey Income Breakdown
Each month I take surveys from a variety of different companies and try them out long enough to get paid. During this process I am reviewing these companies to determine who is worth recommending to you and which companies you should avoid. This income is reflected above each month.
That's why in my reviews of companies like Cash Crate, Opinion Outpost and Ipsos i-Say I show you actual screenshots of my earnings, checks etc so that you can see I really am trying out these companies.
Unlike most other survey websites out there that just write content to get referrals I spend the time actually trying these companies to determine which ones are the best for you.
Another chunk of income that I make from this website (which I expect to continue to grow) comes from referring other people to survey companies that I recommend on this blog. I hope you see the value in having someone else test out these survey companies first and I appreciate the support when you sign up for the survey companies I recommend.
Be sure to also read my free guide if you're serious about maximizing your survey income. You can download that guide for free here.
