I think the most I have made in a day is a few dollars. I usually do hits to pass the time, but I am starting to get more agressive to save for a vacation without digging into the family budget.
I made about $32 dollars 2 days in a row. Those 2 days I literally spent the entire day turking and was lucky to find a few good groups of decently paying hits.
Highest paid day :about 12 $ the hit : Determine the page order of a book . Each hit was 0.20 There were 11k hits and all were out in about 2 hours
The most I ever made in a day was about $10. That included an article worth $7 (those have been hard to find lately)
I got a great $10 dollar hit and did smaller hits while I waited for pages to load. At the end of the day I made $15.
$4 for just one HIT. I was to do more but was afraid that it would reject my work. Now I regret I didn't go for it.
I made $24 in a single day, most of which was article writing, and at the end of the day I was very tired, and did not know what I was typing. I was scared and ready to face rejects the next day, and reviewed all my work, thankfully there were no bloopers, and all the hits were approved.
I made 48.00 in one day. But that takes all day with some really good and plentiful hits! My overall average is 10.00 per day. I work about 25-40 hours a week to make that.
I don't use MTURK so much, so my best is 6.50$ in one day. I would never be able to get something like 113$ per day....
My goal is $2 to $5 a day, my average so far is $4.95 a day(Not including today). And I should hit $14 for one day as soon as 'Will' pays me.
