Recently, i got this job from one of the giant of freelancing sites. This particular job requires to post 10 forum posts in 25 forum sites. Seems easy right? I grabbed the job. Then i found out that i have to check on google if the discussion is indexed. In short, i only have to post on the pages that are google indexed. The thing is not all the pages is indexed. $6 is the priced deal. Do you think that this job is worth to be done? Aside from the bucks, the employer said that ill get the highest rating if i get to finish this task within the week. I dont have any hint what is the purpose of this job. Should i continue this?

I do not think it is worth to continue that job. In addition to that $6 for that much work is quite little for that much work. I'm sure there are other freelancing sites that you would be able to get that would be woth your time and energy. ;)

That is true. I talked to the employer and he ended the contract with no fuss. He didnt even gave me a negative feedback. I really learned something from this incident. Im quite happy because he's not that grumpy or mean to get back at me through giving a feedback.

It sounded to easy and most of those which sound to easy come with a catch. why not outsource it for few cents on mylot, one post per person you may spend a little but then you will get the job done too. you need only 25 people to complete the job then..

If you have enough time for it, why not go for it? But if not, I think that it might be too exhausting. Are you now trying this job, please? Do you find it worthwhile and easy to handle? Good luck, chocokreme.

It seems like a lot of work for a little pay. I would rather do other things.

It does seem like a lot of work for that money. If you want to do then go ahead. If not try to get out of it. Take care.

25 forum sites?! 
It's too exhausting! Anyway, I am glad you were able to end the contract, and the employer didn't leave any feedback. That's great! So, what are your other online jobs aside from posting here in myLot? What have been happening to you for 11 months now?
