    I know this isn't exactly mTurk territory anymore, but wanted to see what the feedback from others is on the work they give over there.

    I signed up (been signed up) on their workstation. Went over today to view tasks and just like I was afraid of they're paying a fraction on the keyword look up compared to when they were on mTurk. Not worth my time now but hate seeing what was a pretty good deal disappear. If anything they should be paying more, since they don't have to give mTurk a slice of the pie.
    On the other hand, I might give their copy writing a try there. I never did on mTurk because I was afraid of a rejection resulting in a lowering of my rating.

    their SEO tasks have paid miserably for a while now. the only way you're gonna make decent money on their platform is to qualify for their writing/editing stuff

    Not sure if this applies to the task you looked at, but I think some of the multi-part tasks list the price per part, like a hit with five categorization tasks that pays 15 cents total lists it at 3 cents per task

    one thing that's tricky is you don't 'accept' hits - they're 'accepted' as soon as you look at one, so you have to take a step if you want to 'discard' it (or you can skip through while working)
