Man o man, does it take a lot of three-penny and nickel hits to get to PE $50. Where are those $5 and up hits that I caught yesterday?
Are you actually able to hit $50 regularly with those? Can you tell me, about how many are you submitting in a day, and what is your hourly?

I seem to be stuck at a pretty consistent PE $20/day, but that's without really doing anything under about $0.25.

I set my panda to collect some penny hits mornings when I am going to work. I don't make much from them (seriously, like .20-.50 cents). But setting the panda, making a few pennies - reminds me to work at all, lol. So it gets me set for the day and THAT'S how I end up making my goal.

Eventually, I turn it off to panda good stuff . But having it on at all is the difference (for me) of working or not :)

I leave the Ben Peterson's (yay! he re-qual'ed me!) and Foxtrots on all day, like you said maybe 50 cents, but nice to get on the board. There's a few batches I panda so I know when they drop.
You're right, it is nice to get on the board first thing in the morning

some batches drip thru, like Ben Peterson and Foxtrot, good for filler or waiting for images to load. Maybe 50c/day? Have some other batches panda'd so I know when they drop, then hit 'em HAM. Surveys vary, sometimes $10,/day, sometimes like yesterday about $35. Did another 30 or so in batches.
I aim for $50, minimum $30. Hit $50 or better 3 days out of 5 generally, 30 or 40 other two days. Hourly about $8-10, but I'm also checking email, writing pitches, proofing articles, working on dissertation waiting for hits to pop. If you don't take anything less than a quarter, you're missing out on some good batches and more importantly, qualification hits that lead to high paying hits.

They only want you to spend 30 minutes --required, they say they're timing you--on a 1.00 HIT. I say this is when you make the coffee, and drink it, blow your nose(I can easily spend 15 min. snotting around. Hey, what can I say? The trees are in flower.). So what do you think? A buck for 30 min of your life. That's 2 dollars an hour. To me they're just paying me to blow my nose and drink coffee.......Life is how you think of it. About this, I think they're s--t. ......I did it anyway. Still being paid to snot around in my PJ's.

Oh, I should add: There's writing, too. Just in case you're having trouble deciding.
