Hello, everyone! I hope you are all turking well today.
I just got into Amazon mturk yesterday. I was scouring the internet to find some ways to make extra cash for a new goal of mine and the mechanical turk has shown its bright light in my direction. I spent my first bit of time just trying to click on any task I could find. Before too long, I realized this wasn't going to get me far. Then I started looking around the internet, found some great resources (such as Turkopticon, HIT Scraper, reporter, overwatch, etc..). Finally, I went into hours of just grabbing all the high approval tasks I could get my hands on (lots of survey's and bulk googling tasks, even picked one up for $2.5).
By the end of my first day, I have maxed out my limited task cap and have a projected earning of $17+ with an already approved earning of nearly $9. This seems like an alright start for me. Still, I am continuing to look for all the latest and greatest advice which is why I have come here.
I am pleased to join the community and am looking forward to meeting all of you.
