Hi, is it possible to make a living from doing those online surveys, say if I did 8 hours per day?
Appreciate any answers.

Nope. Not in my opinion.
The time taken to do them works out as far less than minimum wage.
You also have to consider whether your particular demographic is one that is needed without being screened out of half the surveys you enter. And I doubt you'd be eligible for enough surveys to do 8 hours a day for any length of time.
And many of them pay vouchers rather than cash.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

You're not going to earn a living, no. Beer/pocket money? Yes.
I generally spend several hours a day across several survey sites and in a good month I can do £50-75 a month in PayPal/vouchers. As elsien said, it certainly isn't minimum wage, and it's definitely not consistent.

Thanks for the replies. Guess I'll have to think of something else.0

Theoretically, it's possible to make a living doing online surveys, depending on your living costs i.e. whether you own your own home, whether you own a car, whether you have children, and what your demographic is.
However, for most people, it isn't feasible because there are only a few survey sites that pay at least the equivalent of the minimum wage and there are only so many surveys available.0 -
I think at most you could probably earn aroun £200 per month from surveys by trying it full time. You could probably earn another £200 from mystery shopping - maybe more if you can find the right jobs.
I think you would struggle to make a full time wage though.0 -
The trouble with surveys is they often don`t accept you, so you can waste a lot of of time.Make £2 a day challenge - doing well so far.0

It's more the issue of being screened out of so many and having enough to fill the time. You could certainly make a good amount but it would be very time consuming. You'd be better off joining a good panel and doing it on the side, then using your time for something more lucrative.0
