    Be willing to accept hits that pay less and are in bulk. They usually have a greater chance of being approved and will boost your rating enough to be offered HITS with a higher approval rating needed.
    Do quality work.
    If there is a timer and it is not long enough, complete some of the HIT beforehand in a word processing program and cut and paste.
    Find people who approve HITS frequently to do tasks for. If they have an approval rating such as 20%, they are usually overly fussy or want you to do work for nothing.
    Only accept tasks that you can do well.

    Good advice Aimee, I'm new to MTurk but I'll definitely take less time consuming hits so that more can get done!

    My tips

    What i would say my tips are would be

    1. Try to finish every hit you take on.
    2. Work on bring your approve avg up ( it well open up alot more hits to you)
    3. If time is a issue go for a high amount hit and take your time to do it right the first time.
    4. Go the extra mile bonus is always a plus .
    5. have fun , treat it as a game and you'll get alot more done.

    :D
