I am curious how do you guys make so much? I started on Wednesday and have about $15. $23ish if it all gets accepted. I have completed about 65 surveys only 37 got accepted. I spend a while on those sites too and I only do the ones worth taking for. How do you guys do it? Which ones do you pick? Do you guys keep repeat the same hit over and over?
I dont limit my self to the types of hits or pay that im willing to do.. If theres a bulk ammount and i can get them done fast then i dont worry or even calculate what my hourly wage is gonna be .. I just work.. and work.. and work.. and keep working.. And whatever i make that day is what i make.. Also your new when you have over 5000 hits submitted more hits will be avaliable to you.. The more work you do the more work opens up to you
okay thank you! So should I just do any of the surveys? Some are really tedious as they are 10cents for 20minutes of work. But do people if they can repeat tasks? Say there's one where 500 hits are available would people repeat it if possible?
Personaly i dont mess with the 20 cent surveys anymore i did when i frst started just to get some money and stats built up.. Surveys can be time consuming and boring so if theres other tasks i usualy try for those first.. Some tasks are setup where they have 1000's of hits posted there not all the exact same tho.. Like for example one posts hit called Identify company and they post 30000 of them.. You can go in and do as many of those hits as you can because there not gonna be the same thing 30000 times.. There 30000 differnt hits in 1 big group.. Say there identifying a peice of mail theres 30000 differnt images someone uploaded and he needs all them identified so those yes u can do 1000's of .. that was just an example..but u get the idea Surveys most of them you cant do more then once and they tend to get a little pissy in the britches if you try / do more then 1 ( OF THE EXACT SAME SURVEY ) Alot of survey requesters put up differnt surveys thruout the month so it can be tasking to keep track of what and who u have and have not done..theres a few threads around here that can help ya with that issue tho
And going by Playa_hamm420s stats, this week was not that great for him. He usually ends up crossing $200 mark. So yeah, there is potential if you are ready to grind it out.
