I would say Amazon Mechanical Turk is very helpful when you need help you can email them & they send tips to help you with any problems or concerns.
Amazon Mechanical Turk really help me when I needed help with money. Thanks to Amazon I can keep getting money in my account, which the HITs are not hard you just have to make sure you read & get a good understanding.The pay may be low & surveys can be long at times, check in the more HITs you get you can be qualified for higher paying HITs.

It is a great company to work with because you work from home but the pay can be quite low if there are not very many projects posted by the requester
I enter general information into their database is small to large batches of HITS. On some days, there may be up to 100 requested with 10,000 hits and on other days, especially after a holiday, there can over 300 requesters that have submitted and uploaded 100,000 hits. The money made depends on how long you actually want to work but the pay can average between $10 to $15 per hour.

Working with your own time but making sure to work time after you have been given an assignment.
Its a good job since you work from the comfort of your own house. Most a times, you just correct mistakes on a given entry and partake in a research. Also, there are instruction on how they want a result and you just follow the given instruction and you will be good. Its a relatively easy job.

It's ok for college students
Small amount of work for a few dollars enough to buy you a drink. Can work at anytime at your own pace. Very competitive as it is 100% based commission.

Awesome HIT's
Human Intelligent Task (called "HIT's) is doing a task that Artificial Intelligent has not learned how to do as of yet. It's fun and it's exciting and you get to work at your own pace and do whatever assignments you wish to sit and complete. It's good if you are a housewife with no children and love to work on the computer all day. You can make a couple hundred bucks a month.
ProsWork at Home
ConsPays pennies on the dollar

Nice place to make some extra income.
I started working for Amazon Mturk several months ago. I did a lot of online searches about Mturk as well as read a couple of e-books about it. I learned as much as I possibly could to help me understand and to make more money. I was completely confused about adding extensions etc. but I hung in there. I mostly do surveys as I feel like it's the best way I have found to make the most money. As I complete more and more hits better paying hits are becoming available on a regular basis. I love the fact that I can get online anyime and make money. NO, working here will not pay your cost of living completly but it will pay a few monthly bills you have, and supply you with extra income. I really like working for amazon mturk!
Proswork from home, extra income, set your own hours, paid quickly
Conswhen things are slow there isnt always a lot of work available

Stressful, time sensitive, and grossly underpaid
Amazon MTurk is a platform for individuals, corporation, and organizations to microcontract workers to complete a task. The tasks can range anywhere from audio transcribing to completing psychological surveys.
Payments rates vary from working for free to as high as $1 a minute. The problem though, is that high paying tasks are extremely few and far between. Most tasks pay less than 10 cents a minute. Tasks are also limited in number so workers compete against each other in order to claim their tasks before they run out. Many tasks are also very unethical, having users write positive reviews for services and websites on popular rating platforms, inflating website traffic, google search terms, etc.
However, it is a very low commitment way to earn a little extra cash when you want to buy something.
ProsMake your own schedule
ConsLow pay, repetitive work, stressful work environment if you want to maximize profit

Freelance, and what you make of it.
Certain people will find Mturk a more profitable place. Those with a higher education and income will qualify for more studies and work available. It can take time to accrue the numbers and qualifications that open up more fair paying work. However, when you manage to find a good requester, you can make your time here worthwhile. It's a a good side gig for people who have other employment, but I don't recommend trying to make it full time on its own.
