Can't find good HITs? 11/28

Where are the batches?!

 

Exxxxxaacctly!

 

lol if i won the powerball, i'd become a requester and post good paying hits

 

On mturk I seen at least 5 pages fill of batches if thats your thing.

 

Uuuuugh. The PPCs are as bad as last time with the slowness. =-(

 

With this kind of lag I wonder if NetMSI decided to upload like 100,000 hits or something. One of the times I've noticed mturk lagging was when he uploaded like 40,50000 "write a 61 word description" hit.

 

netmsi is closed at 5 pm...

 

Seriously at this point it doesn't even feel worth it, it's taking me 30-60s each just to load.

 

There are a lot of easy, but low paying, batch HITS that are out there that let you rack up that level pretty quickly. I've knocked out about 70 of them today without really even trying.

Seems like all the good ones want you to have over 1000, which I am nowhere near

At that pace you will be soon though I make it a point to always have 100 pending, and try to do at least 100 a day. They add up SO quickly when you have an arbitrary goal. (I'm trying for 5k right now...ARGH!)

 

What kind of batch hits should i be looking for? Like find a webpage rank?

How can I improve my approval rate to 95+ its at 93%

 

I think the proper question should be:
Where are all the fine batches at tonight?

 

Uh, get approvals?

 

I'm still slogging through the PPC hits. They are the fastest, easiest way to boost numbers that I've ever seen. Also was my very first batch hit when I started. Probly not going to get over 500 tonight though because they are soooooo slow.

 

Lots and lots of penny hits. Be careful amazon has been know to let people go with low approve rates. Check out oscar smith and CrowdFlower


POST was for monaiz

 

I really got my number up quickly by doing the Readabl Identify company/publication from a photo hits. They are quick and I had some rejected but the sheer number you are able to do quickly seem to outweigh the "known bad HITs" they reject.
