mturk earnings to date


I haven't been able to set aside much time for Turking in the last two weeks, so rather than weekly earnings here are my Turking Statistics to date. In roughly eight weeks I've made $766.93. I'm looking forward to having more time to devote to the site once the holidays are over.

  1. That's quite an achievement, George! Averages out at (whips out calculator!) $191.73 per week. Pretty impressive, especially since you mentioned in one of your earlier posts that you joined MTurk in October.

    How many hours roughly would you say you put in every week? And what HITS have you been doing?

  2. Duh. My bad. I obviously haven't had enough coffee. Neither has my calculator! It's an average of $95.86 a week, but that's still pretty impressive in my books, so well done still. :-)

  3. Hi Wendel! Thanks so much for your comments. I haven't been able to Turk for the last two weeks or more due to family visiting and my regular job, I think I've been averaging around $150 or so on the weeks I did work.

    I do some surveys, but find that batch hits are what I earn the best on. Once I've done a short task 20 or so times I can breeze through several hundred pretty quickly (and for some reason I don't get bored!)

    My goal is $20 per day (on the days I can work) and I generally spend 2-3 hours Turkin. Not a wage that I can support the family on at this point, my goal is to increase it over the next few months.

  4. Considering you're doing this very much on a part-time basis, $150 is incredible. Doing repetitive tasks is obviously working in your favour. I, on the other hand, have the combined attention span of a gnat and a squirrel!

    I'm confident you'll do great over the coming months. I look forward to where you'll be a year from now. Take care...
