Jan 15-31-School just started give the students time to settle in before starting projects

Feb 1-21st-Presidents day lull

Feb 22nd-April 8th-Dreaded Spring break week from hell and/or easter lull

April 8-April 30th-Slow stretch before final projects at colleges

May 1st-15th-School is almost out

May 15-May 31st-Memorial day Lull

June 1-30-What do you expect, school is out

July 1-15 4th of july lull

July 15th-August 31-I expected it to be bad, but this summer slump is worse than ever, is mturk closing down?

September 1st-September 10th Labor day lull

September 10-October 15th-This should be back to normal but is worse than ever, either school projects havent started or mturk is closing down

October 15th-November 15th-Too many new turkers

November 16th-30 Thanksgiving lull

December 1st to December 20th-Too many new turkers, too many general turkers due to holidays

yes. grad students and some undergrads post surveys that they need data for. batch work is better than survey's, but they have slowed down quite a bit over the past few years. Still, your best bet is to catch a batch if you can :wink:
I'm new what is batch work? and how do you get them?

some requesters will post hundreds or thousands of hits and you can just do as many as you can grab. Though the pay is often low per hit, you get into a rhythm and can do several a minute - so the pay per hour is good.

one day? At one point I had a steady amount coming in but it seems like it slowed down a lot
Be glad you weren't here for the bot attack in 2018, that is if you missed it. Things around here have never recovered.
