Your First 100 HITS on Amazon MTurk: A Comprehensive Guide

Working online and making extra money has become increasingly popular in today’s gig economy, and one platform that stands out in this space is Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk). If you're looking to complete your first 100 Human Intelligence Tasks (HITs) on MTurk, you're in the right place. This guide will take you through everything you need to know to kickstart your MTurk journey, share valuable tips and tricks, and help you navigate potential challenges. Let's dive in!

What is Amazon Mechanical Turk?

Before we strategize about your first 100 HITs, let’s understand what MTurk is. Amazon Mechanical Turk is a crowdsourcing marketplace that allows individuals and businesses to outsource their processes and tasks to a distributed workforce. These tasks, known as Human Intelligence Tasks (HITs), require human intelligence to complete. They can range from simple data entry and image tagging to more complex tasks like surveys and content moderation.

MTurk provides opportunities for everyone, whether you're a student looking to make some pocket money, a stay-at-home parent, or someone wanting to earn extra income alongside a full-time job. What's appealing about MTurk is its flexibility—you can work whenever and wherever you want.

Setting Up Your MTurk Account

Step 1: Create an Account

Getting started on MTurk is simple. First, visit the MTurk website and click on "Get Started with Amazon Mechanical Turk." You'll need to create two accounts:

Worker Account: This is your account as a worker completing HITs. Simply provide your email, create a password, and fill in your personal information as required.

Requester Account: Although optional for new users, you may also want to create a requester account for better insight into how HITs are structured.

Step 2: Complete Your Profile

After creating your account, it’s important to complete your profile. This includes adding background information that can help you qualify for more tasks. MTurk often uses demographic information to match you with suitable tasks, so be thorough when filling out these details.

Step 3: Set Up Payment

To receive your earnings, you'll need to add a valid payment method. MTurk typically pays through Amazon Payments or bank transfers, so choose the option that works best for you. Be sure to input your payment information accurately to avoid any delays in receiving your funds.

Understanding HITs: Types and Categories

MTurk HITs can be categorized into several types, each offering different levels of complexity and pay. Here are some common categories you'll encounter:

1. Surveys

Surveys are one of the most common HITs on MTurk. They usually involve answering questions related to consumer behavior, opinions, or other research data. Pay for surveys can vary widely, from a few cents to several dollars, depending on the length and complexity.

2. Data Validation

These tasks require you to verify or validate data sets. For example, you might review a list of entries to ensure they match or confirm the accuracy of information in a spreadsheet.

3. Image and Video Tagging

In these HITs, you’ll assist in labeling images or videos. This could involve identifying objects, tagging scenes, or providing descriptive keywords.

4. Content Moderation

Content moderation tasks typically involve reviewing user-generated content to ensure it meets specific guidelines. This is often seen in platforms looking for workers to flag inappropriate content.

5. Writing and Transcription

These HITs involve creating written content or transcribing audio files. They can offer higher pay, especially if you're skilled in writing or have strong typing skills.

Preparing for Your First 100 HITS

To set yourself up for success, it's essential to approach your first 100 HITs with a strategy. Here are some important steps:

1. Research the Platform

Take time to explore MTurk before diving in. Get familiar with the dashboard, types of HITs available, and tools for filtering tasks based on pay, time required, or feedback ratings. You can also join MTurk forums or communities to learn from experienced workers.

2. Start Small

Before committing to 100 HITs, start with a few smaller tasks to understand the process. This will help you familiarize yourself with the platform and give you a sense of the time and effort required for different types of HITs.

3. Focus on High-Paying HITs

As you browse tasks, prioritize those that offer a higher payout for the time invested. Use tools like BZTurk Chrome Extensions Tools like HIT Finder and HIT Catcher can streamline your tasks or TurkOpticon to find HITs with a better value-to-time ratio. These tools provide additional filtering options and allow workers to rate requesters, helping you avoid low-paying or problematic tasks.

4. Create a Work Schedule

Set aside dedicated time to work on MTurk. Consistency is key to reaching your goal of 100 HITs. Whether it’s a couple of hours in the evening or longer shifts on weekends, having a schedule will help you stay on track.

Tips for Completing HITs Efficiently

Once you're set up and ready to start, here are some practical tips to help you complete your first 100 HITs efficiently:

1. Read Instructions Carefully

Each HIT has specific instructions that must be followed closely. Take the time to read them before beginning the task to avoid errors that could lead to rejection.

2. Use Auto-Completion Tools

For tasks involving repetitive typing or data entry, consider using auto-completion or typing shortcuts. This can significantly speed up your workflow, allowing you to complete HITs more quickly.

3. Stay Organized

Keep track of the tasks you’ve completed, pending requests, and your earnings. A simple spreadsheet can help you monitor your progress and identify patterns in what types of HITs you enjoy and excel at.

4. Don’t Rush

While it may be tempting to rapidly complete tasks for speed, rushing often leads to mistakes. Focus on quality to minimize rejections, which can impact your approval rating on MTurk.

5. Know Your Limits

It’s crucial to understand your limits. If you find yourself getting fatigued or frustrated, take breaks. Working too long without rest can lead to decreased productivity and increased errors.

Tracking Your Progress

As you aim to complete your first 100 HITs, tracking your progress will keep you motivated. You can set milestones to achieve along the way:

Milestone 1: Complete your first 10 HITs. Celebrate this accomplishment!

Milestone 2: Reach 50 HITs completed. Take a moment to reflect on what you’ve learned so far.

Milestone 3: Complete 100 HITs with a target earnings goal. This will give you a greater sense of accomplishment.

Learning from the Experience

After you've completed your first 100 HITs, take time to reflect on your experience. Here are some valuable insights to consider:

1. Review Your Earnings

Look back at the amount of money you made versus the time you invested. This analysis will help you determine if MTurk is worth your time for the future or if you need to adjust your strategy.

2. Evaluate Your Task Preferences

Identify the types of tasks you enjoyed completing the most. This will guide your focus for future work and help you hone your skills in areas that you find fulfilling.

3. Gather Feedback

If possible, seek feedback from other MTurk workers or requesters about your performance. Constructive criticism can guide your improvement for future HITs.

4. Keep an Eye on Trends

Stay updated with any changes in the MTurk marketplace. New tools or features may emerge, influencing the types of tasks available and the earning potential.

Navigating Challenges on MTurk

Like any platform, MTurk has its challenges. Here are some common hurdles you may encounter and tips for overcoming them:

1. Rejections

Rejections can be discouraging, but they are part of the MTurk experience. If this happens, review the task instructions and your submissions carefully. Learn from the feedback provided by requesters to improve your future HITs.

2. Low Pay

Some HITs may not pay sufficiently for the effort required. It’s important to prioritize high-paying tasks and decline those that don’t meet your earning expectations.

3. Time Management

Balancing MTurk tasks with other responsibilities can be tricky. Establishing a strict work schedule and adhering to it can help manage your time effectively.

4. Frustration with Tools

If you find MTurk’s interface challenging, consider exploring third-party tools designed to enhance your experience. These can include browser extensions that provide additional task filtering or management options.

Conclusion

Completing your first 100 HITs on Amazon Mechanical Turk is an exciting milestone in your remote work journey. With the right preparation, tools, and mindset, you can navigate this platform successfully.

Youngest of FF Kai Kai bonding with Bonzle blah blah what I wanna see is Jordie’s soul (/body) ALSO being stuck in Superhell with one of the Forbidden Five having taken over her normal body at the end of s2p1, and her now having to chose between either these ancient evils or two peeps who keep forgetting her name

She’s grumpy not just because of her predicament of having to accept help but also because one of the first things that happened is that she fell down a set of stairs and at the very least sprained her arm.

“From the earth we're grounded to

All the way up to the blue

I know I'll see your face again

In truth, you'll never leave.” 🍂

——Overmorrow x The Bird by Ok Goodnight Part V

notes:

Red cardinals symbolize hope and strength. Many believe that seeing one means that a departed loved one is near, or that new love is blossoming 😌

Lilies are common funeral flowers, and symbolize innocence. Similarly, poppies symbolize remembrance, peace and support, particularly for fallen soldiers and their families

I said this in the oc document but it’s definitely worth mentioning again here that Charis and Ephemer’s relationship was built on one of my fav quotes from Avatar: “[Their] love for you has not left this world. It is still inside of your heart, and is reborn in the form of new love.”

The love you were given never truly goes away, even if the one(s) who gave it to you are gone…if you’ve ever lost someone, I don’t need to explain to you how healing that thought is

More of the AU stuff. Two pairs of siblings!

The Elliots obtained the werewolves as puppies in a very not legal way, and raised and trained them as guard animals for Tessa. Jay is the best at it, but Nocturne is Tessa's favorite dog.

Cyn is the only one who knows that they're werewolves, and actually knows how to speak English. She's actually, related to that, the only one who picked their own name. Tessa tells her parents that she picked all the names, though.

((I'll draw the others as fully-grown werewolves later aaa))

any one shots about girls flirting or asking blaine out in front of kurt without realising he’s gay? thanks!

Here are some that might fit what you're looking for. In the second and third one, he is bi-sexual. ~ Jen

Possession is Nine-Tenths of the Law by Lexie

It’s not like Kurt can blame the girls who try to flirt with Blaine. He’s dreamy, he’s charming, he doesn’t always immediately come across as gayer than a Christmas tree, and if you spot him out of his uniform, he looks like he walked right off the set of a Cary Grant movie.

Collide by @scatter-the-stars  

Kurt Hummel is having a terrible week. On top of his car breaking down and his laptop dying at the worst time possible, finding his boyfriend cheating on him is the final straw against the camel’s back. A night of drinking is much deserved. But waking up in bed with star quarterback Blaine Anderson is something he doesn’t need. Determined to forget it and move on, he finds that hard when Blaine has other ideas. At first wanting nothing to do with the biggest playboy on campus, somehow Kurt finds himself agreeing to being friends with Blaine. It’s a friendship that opens his eyes to the guy he never really knew. And soon finds him wanting the one person he maybe shouldn’t want.

Mpreg rp wishlist/ideas

Wry, having allowed someone to be reborn, is wandering around searching for a new set of parents for this new life. The child is rapidly reaching 9months and moves strongly as the person is still there (only truly reborn once out of Wry's womb/stomach and then forgets everything) wants this new life quicker and is screaming in the god's mind. Early labour starts at the 7month development but they are still growing during his labouring. A couple find him and offer to help in this Forrest. But as he pushes out the new life, screaming that it is crowning in his attempts to seem mortal, one member of the couple (female or male) feel as if something is entering them. As he pushes out the new life, it enters the person who now has to deal with sudden labour. Possibility that they ask for a second immediately and his stomach swells rapidly before immediate labour.

Mirai during a stage of pregnancy and doing a fan meet up. Belly rubbing, photos, videos of movement, stomach signing. If far enough along, he could be having contractions and trying to push it off but then groans as his water finally breaks and births in front of everyone (or private with the highest payer). Extra: could have been a fan's child.

Mirai on stage or filming either a song or music video and trying to ignore the impending labour. Then he screams as a sharp contraction occurs and his waters break. Panting heavily and having to push the child(ren) out quickly as they are not stopping for his job.

Serush being impregnated and then (with a few skips probably) going through the months trying to rule and deal with the pregnancy. He can have just one and be mocking the breeder for not being good enough or that full even a tailor is struggling to keep up with how quickly his clothing becomes too tight on him.

Aoi making with a shark mer and not realising how active and aggressive the unborn can be. A lot of suffering.

Either jun, Mirai, serush or wry going through a double pregnancy with their partner/friend. Labour at the same time or trying pregnant sex.

Me: I want to run Binding Coil of Bahamut synced so I can get the full experience and actually enjoy the fights instead of having a party of level 90s roflstomp the bosses in five seconds for me. I had that for the ARR Extreme trials and it took the fun out of it, only being worth it for the mounts I got. When I experience this part of the story that I hear is really important and integral to later expansions and a certain character's development, I want to do it the way god (Yoshi-P) intended. How can I make this happen?

Every Reddit thread on the subject ever: You can't. Run it unsynced instead. Put up a party finder. Make sure you do it unsynced. Mention that it's your first time so vets will want to actually join you for the bonus rewards. Let them join as level 90 and carry you through so you can just watch the cutscenes. Don't ever try Duty Finder. And do it unsynced.
