...crowdflower worth the time?

Philippines
January 5, 2013 11:11pm CST
I have been doing this task for a while and I think I am gettign addicted to doing it. However, I am concerned that it may well not worth the time and effort since there are times when my accuracy dropped a big time for a single mistake. I believe that there has to be standard accuracy rate to be accounted for otehr tasks. Anywya, i would like anyone to share nay experience they have with this task. I believe I encountered it while in clixsense. I also tihnk that they will default my work since I have yet to navigate their process.

I really liked the idea of crowdflower offers and I used to do them on quickrewards but I'm not sure if they still have those offers on their site. Crowdflower has a lot of entertaining tasks to do the only problem like you mentioned is you have to have a certain accuracy. I remember one of the offers I was doing I couldn't even see all of the work that I had to do so I kept getting low scores and my offers wouldn't approve. I would say that as long as you are getting offers to approve than it is worth it because not all of Crowdflowers offers are incredibly boring.

Well, I hope that my addiction for this (at the moment) pays off. I am on the interim side of things and I really want to make the most of it as everybody in the online money making world.

some thing to think so,, I know many on sites you saw they earn well from those tasks. I honestly cant ever figure them out to do them. Have a great day there....

I guess it was pretty easy for me. The hard thing is to keep it up and not getting frustrated.

That really depends on how much your time is worth in terms of money. Let's say you earn $1 for an hour doing Crowdflower tasks, would that be considered worth your time? I suggest you base it on how much you actually earn in an hour if you're doing an offline job.

I haven't thought of that. I wished it could be higher though and I do more meaningful work rather than just tagging web sites and such. I guess sit just some sort f extra work which I really can't classify as work in my opinion.

I think you are right. Doing crowdflower task is very addictive but the bad part of it is the earnings are too low and even if you do a lot, sooner or later, you will get bored of doing the same thing over and over again. Not to talk of the trouble of marking your answers wrong even when they are right. But all in all, i guess its still okay. Also, Neobux pay is higher than that of Clixsense. You can check it out.

Yeah but I never qualified for Neobux due to double IP address thingy and I'm not pushing it. Perhaps, i will latch to it when its not so enjoyable for me.

Hi I say sometimes the work is worth and good at earning but sometimes its not. we enjoy the work as long as we get approved and earn but once the accuracy starts falling we loose it and feel its not worth. I sometimes reach to payout in clixsense due to cloudcrowd but sometimes the work is really confusing and not worth.

I have to agree with you on that. Sometimes,it is really just a tool to make sure we get what we wanted.

I love crowdflower tasks for the simple reason that i earn big. I particularly love the high paying tasks of $0.07-0.11 cents plus i get 12%bonus on every dollar earned at neobux. Trick is: be 90% accurate which is easy to achieve when you follow instructions to the letter. Please note: clixsense may have crowdflower tasks that neobux or rewardingways or inbox dollars does not indicate at any one particular time;so if you are suspended in one site,you could try another site. Enjoy the tasks and earn huge.

I have also done tasks on clixsense. My accuracy was 100% and dropped to 88% with one mistake out of 12. But I earned 12 cents that night and was so happy and looking forward to doing those tasks again. I am not a premium member so earning 12 cents in one day is really a big thing for me on clixsense. Without doing tasks I only earn 2 to 3 cents per day on there. So I don't think doing tasks is a waste of time at all if you're a free member. :)

On short term, yes but I do feel frustrated sometimes because my answers are correct yet I am told I am wrong. But I have to say that it did increase my earning. I hope I could do this for only a short time.It's not really uplifting to do something and being told you're wrong over and over again.

Personally I don't mess with them. Some of those questions they throw at you are tests. They already know the results. At least the results they came up with. You can be marked wrong for something even if you are correct just because they had originally failed to acquire the needed information. Those are not the only issue though. A lot of people have complaints about them. A few say they have no problems whatsoever. If its working for you, go for it.

A little research does shows that. Although I am not frustrated yet, I just tried for the sake of trying. But if teat is really the case,perhaps I shoudl drop it anytime soon.

Hiya jeanne, Not long back I did a quiz for points somewhere else and I had already read the previous page really carefully I always do most times anyway. I filled out all the answers and they put that I had two answers wrong to go back and do my homework again. Not only did I think that a very silly answer but I researched the two answers on the Internet and backed it up again with more research to make sure I was right and I was right and they were wrong. Conclusion that I am not doing those silly quizzes again and I donĀ“t think that it really matters who is right or wrong. They perhaps use the page anyway to suit themselves whether you are right or not. Person who invented the quiz with wrong answers got more points than anyone so I think that they do not bother to check anything. The quizzes I am referring to are nothing to do with crowdflower or anything like it. I spend my time between here and a certain Traffic Exchange and that is my lot at the moment.xxx
