    I did the HubPages a few days ago when it was a $10 reward. I passed with a 94, and it was certainly worth it for a while - they approve in 15 minute intervals. I did 500+ hits for them, and made $150+ in about 3 days, working only about 2-3 hours a day. However, then my rating with them started to drop. I contacted them and they were not helpful at all. Even when I started being more careful, my rating kept dropping. So I recommend carefully doing their preview/qualification hits, and if you pass and nab the bonus, do as many of their $0.05 hits for the big bonuses as possible. But if your rating starts dropping below a 90, let it be. I think they start knocking you down after a while, because I don't understand how I could drop from a 196 to a 191 after a batch of 10 hits, after already successfully completing over 500 for them.

    I don't tweet, but it looks good for others! Did the one for Facebook awhile back and was approved.

    Any qual is worth getting. If you are close, they will give you a $2 bonus.

    I think you can only test for this qual one time.

    I'm doing the HubPages test because I figure that it's at least an easy $0.25 for each of the 15. If I pass, great! If not, no big deal. I'm putting effort into it because it'd be cool to have a qual for it, but not pressuring myself too much over it.

    Totally, you're so lucky you got that many in before they hit your accuracy. I did about 90 at 94% and then on my tenth batch it was, "Congrats, you received a bonus of $0.16(down from $2.24), your accuracy is currently 75%" Lol, what?

    Yeah, I realize that now - it was great while it lasted, but now my rating's dropped to a 76 and I don't think I've changed in how I rate things. This thread provides pretty good reasons of the problems that others have had with them as well.

    I haven't changed anything either in terms of how I grade. I think you nailed it on the head. They give you a taste and then throttle you down. But seriously $150... damn, that's some good Turkin'

    I didn't pass the HubPages test but I did get a $2 bonus for good effort (plus they paid $0.25 x 15 for each of the test HITs). I'll take that $5.75!

    I did a couple of the Nana hits last week. I just got a .35 bonus. They revamped the hit and added a great bonus structure. They werent working in chrome but worked great in FF. After five hits, they are giving a bonus of .55 PER hit. The

    I got these down to about three minutes per hit. You are allowed to do 50 of them. They auto approve in one day.

    Most of the articles are health related and talk about the same 10 diseases. The hit asks for links to reputable websites with info on those diseases. Make a spreadsheet that you can copy and paste your reference sites. The hit will go much faster.

    They are easy - just accept the HIT and read the instructions. It's pretty self explanatory.

    I could never quite get into the hubpages. I find it too subjective. Much like the CF Ad hits.

    My 2 year old thinks this is hilarious :) And yes I realize a 2 year old should not be awake at this hour. :)
