    x8Data

    Dustin from x8Data has contacted me and I will be setting up a sub-forum for the requester shortly - once we discuss how it needs to be done.

    Thanks so much for referring him! It is a mutually beneficial situation!

    Give us a little bit to work out the details.

    I emailed him too because it seemed too good to be true. He assured me that we are doing them correctly. He's probably never gotten so many emails in one night (morning in AUS) before today :D

    I like these x8 HITS- happy to do them but I wish they would do a short video explaining stuff so we weren't nervous about all the details and getting rejections.

    If you google X8 data and Dustin, you should find his own LinkedIn page. His previous job is interesting.

    Now I feel like I'm not being that descriptive. I might stop even though they are approving. I have only completed four. I thought we just had to describe what was in the scene not so much add to the characters or create the story line.

    Those X8 hits are so easy most of them have valid page in the first link.

    All of you who are confused here's a reply from Dustin (might prove helpful) :

    You should only mark the webpage as valid if the company is found in his current or past work. Even if they are at a different company currently but have worked at the company we are looking for in the past it is valid.

    I've gotten 5 rejects from them out of about 1000 HITS. Random as far as I can tell.

    These HITs are great. I love when there is such an open line of communication with requesters.

    I did about 35 for the first time.They would send me a reject that fast when I just started with them?Plus do you get this alot?
    Thank you. Please be sure you do not mark a photo as not readable or not a mailer unless that is actually the case.

    It's all automated as far as I can tell. I just expect a reject every now then, and I'm gonna keep doing them until it starts to noticeably affect my reject rate.

    There are some they just reject. Companies like "ABC", Initials for a return address. I've gotten 3 rejects I think out of 2700 now. I stay away from names that are too simple or would refer to multiple companies like "ABC". The message you get when you reject a hit is automated. I just make sure there is nothing to identify the companies name before I reject it. If there is a logo or something someone else might recognize I return it. As far as I can tell non of my unidentifiable have been rejected.

    I just got my very first rejection. The first cut is the deepest. 500 turks though before my first. Those 8data's were awesome.
