Before stumbling upon Bitlanders, I came across several websites which are "Paid-Per-Survey" meaning you only need to answer surveys to be able to earn money. Of course, I got wowed by it. Who doesn't? You know, earning becomes VERY easy in that sense. Well after doing it for a week, I couldn't finish them due to survey qualification tests. But then, I still got fortunate because I found Bitlanders. :)

So what's its connection with this blog?

About a week ago, Bitlanders launched its all new feature, the SURVEY CHAT.

The format is just the same: Answer surveys and get rewarded! That's all, pretty quick. Instant cash in a flash, absolutely!

So to continue the story, there was this one time when I decided to go online on global chat and "Poof!", Hillary came!

I then thought, "Oh? Suddenly, why is Hillary here? :O Did I make a mistake? OMG.... ".

But good thing. It was just the survey chat. What a relief. -.-

That was my first time to encounter such new kind of opportunity on this platform. Wow. :)

As it was being presented to me, it started with Hillary starting the conversation with one of the sentences that went like this:

Alright. Quite new for a social site like this.

I started answering the first question and from there, I began to earn extra bm points for each question I had answered.

Yey! Additional 30 bm for me. :)

I kept on answering the rest of the questions when I thought, "Woah. The questions are overwhelming." because I thought that I was still on the process of adopting it to my system. It was also crazy that I didn't know the answers to some of the questions! I had no idea at all and there would be no chance to answer all of them correctly. I even told myself, "This is becoming educational, huh? Okay, time for research.".

*Ahha! Time for research!

I felt like I wasn't able to give the right answers to all of the questions but instead, I felt that I was able to give blunt answers only because I wasn't sure of them and I had no choice since my personal answers were not there. I'm not saying that it happened all the time but it did. 

I really don't know. I'm sorry. :'(

I think it could be nicer if they'd also put choices like "I don't know", "Don't have any idea", "My answer is none of the above" or ,"Not really my thing" in all of the questions because I think not all users can relate to all of the topics. I think if they do that, it would give them more accurate answers from the participants. I'm even afraid that if ever they're going to submit that to someone who'll be needing the results of the survey, it won't help the recipient that much because of the lack of the response accuracy. I don't actually know but just my two cents.

Let's try to take it on the positive side too. It was also good at the same time knowing that I don't read anything sports or politics related but then because of it, I suddenly searched them on Google. A lot of questions asked were from those range of topics and it just goes to show that sometimes, you just need to be more aware of what's happening around you like the current news to be able to answer them correctly, if that's how I should say it.

I like how they made the survey as organized as possible also by placing multiple choice buttons. All I had to do was just to click on my answer and that's it. No need to type those lengthy answers by myself which I think would probably take time.

*Hmmmmm........ What should I choose? :)

It is more accessible, more convenient, and simplier.

*Just a random thought : Another thing I want to point out is the qualification test for each survey. This is not a like-or-dislike thing but I'm actually thinking that what if Bitlanders implements the style of Pay-Per-Survey sites wherein you need to answer qualification tests first before you can proceed to the actual surveys? When I answered the survey, there was none and it's just that the participants can take part immediately, which I think is also a good pointer. That's why I quit from those Pay-Per-Survey sites in the first place, right? However, if qualification tests are there, the answers will be more reliable (like the answers will be deemed a hundred percent reliable) but there will be lesser earnings for the users as only a few might get suited to them. I am confused by these two scenarios and each has its negative points. Should I recommend them to present qualification tests or not? Well, my imaginative thinking again. Or perhaps, I just have to say thank you for it's not there, which is another kind of relief. Then it just means that we are fortunate to have the survey for free! What's a little research anyway? Besides, we certainly get to fill in more of our knowledge. 

I also hope they'll cover more topics like music, art, dance, acting, etc since my interests rely mostly on those things. I even can't imagine myself not answering these kind of questions. So I hope they will do. Pretty please? :(

Overall, I'm fine with the survey chat. I think it's cool although there are minor things that I hope to be improved, but I still hope to see them in the future. But as for now, let's just be open for the possibilities that could be brought about by this new feature for I know it can help us on our journey here on Bitlanders.

And that sums up my all thoughts about the survey. This has been my observation, suggestion, and reaction regarding the survey. How about you? What are your own thoughts? Have you tried the survey yourself? If you haven't, then simply open that rectangular blue box at the bottom right part of your page and Hillary will be happy to meet you. ;)

So what are you waiting for? Don't wait any longer and click on the chat box now! Happy earning! :)
