Amazon Mechanical Turk is a platform that provides an on-demand, scalable, human workforce to complete jobs that humans can do better than computers or computers cannot perform. These jobs may include but not limited to identifying objects in a photo or video, performing data de-duplication, transcribing audio recordings, or researching data details. MTurk probably isn’t going to be your primary source of income, but a to earn a few extra coins.
How it works
A requester who may include researchers, consumer product groups, universities, small businesses and tech giants post tasks known as HITs, or human intelligence tasks. Each HIT shows you the price the requester will pay for completion along with the allotted time you have to finish it. Once you complete the tasks, you submit the HIT and await payment.
How much?
Realistically you may make between $5 – $15 a hour and the more HITS you complete the more the earnings
Pros
Flexible work from home jobs
Lots of HITs available
Cons
Pay can be extremely low
Special qualifications needed for some higher-paying assignments
Only workers within the US can withdraw their earnings in cash. Outside the US, earnings can only be redeemed via Amazon gift cards.

Thanks again for the blog post.Really looking forward to read more. Much obliged.
These fast programs are usually kept at no cost, however, if the
training is great, only a little hint will
be so as.
This design is wicked! You most certainly know how to keep a reader
amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my
own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Fantastic job.
I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
Too cool!
Nice advice! Picoworkers is another great site for small jobs.
The tasks there include YouTube subscribe/comment, Facebook/Twitter likes,
app downloads, signup up jobs, and much more.
Almost all tasks are easy to complete and there is always plenty of jobs available.
They also pay for both employer and worker referrals.
