I just joined a few days ago, after being referred to the site by a friend. How long have you been a member of mTurk.com?
a month or so I've been doing this about a month. I'm VERY part timeish, Basically just to fill free spaces in my day. I've made like $70 and it has helped pay for baby stuff.
Ryan, Do you normally do $ offers or penny offers? I have come to realize that the majority of the $ offerings take a good while to complete.
I tend to do $ offers. 350-500 word articles have been my best profit numbers. I think fast and type fast though. Also the 3-5 cent offers can be good sometimes. As can 50 cent type things. I love the 3-4 cent ask a question ones. I also love the 4-5 cent rewrite a sentence ones. Don't chase the 10 cent find a product or 3 cent moderate images ones you'll waste more time refreshing and getting denied then they're worth. Basically some hits of all values suck, some are great. A lot depends on your individual skills.
I joined about 15 months ago, did about 40 cents worth of work, moved to a new city and totally forgot that I signed up until right before Christmas, when something sparked my memory. I logged back in (my 40 cents was still there) and started doing some jobs. It is a bit addicting, I must say. And sometimes frustrating. But no one is forcing you to do these.
I have been turking for two months and so far I like it and will keep turking. this really makes money
I started last year in October and have made close to $150.00. I know it's not a whole lot, but I have part time jobs and am just now getting brave enough to try higher paying HITS again. I was jilted about $1.50 once for re-typing someone's article one, so I wasn't eager to volunteer for the higher paying ones for a time.
I've been on MTurk for almost a year and in that year I've made over 850.00 and that's just barely part time. I like it because if I need money in a pinch or need to pay a bill I usually can gather up the money pretty quickly.
What is the longest anyone has ben on MTurk? i havebeen on Mturk for only about 15 days as i only came to know recently. I have started enjoying myself. What is the longest anyone has been on MTurk? When was mTurk started?
I have been doing this for only about three weeks. I have had times where I enjoyed the tasks and other days when I can't find anything worth my effort.
I've been doing this since the end of September, when I accidently happened upon it somehow. I can't remember how I happened on it. I think somehow I was bouncing around amazon, and then I have been working on it since. I love doing it.
