Best Requesters for Amazon Mechanical Turk!

While on my Amazon Mechanical Turk phase of life I noticed there are a lot of BS requesters.  Many of them you have to watch out for and ignore, go through 10 extra pages to get past “Dolores Labs” and find the quick and easy $.02 hits that you can do a 1000 of.

Today I am going to tell you just a few of the trusted requesters I look for on a daily basis, hopefully this can help you out with your Mturk habit:


  • Amazon Requester Inc. This is a fantastic requester.  One of their most popular hits is the “Quick Survey: evaluate a short phrase”.   Each hit takes about 3 seconds asking if the two words are offensive, if you like the phrase, change one of the words to make a new phrase, and than how many syllables are in the phrase.  Sound simple enough? I hope so I just busted 500 out in 2 hours. $.02 a hit.

  • RelevanceQuest – This is another great user with a simplified scheme.  On the “Web Search Quality” hits it shows a statement and a link, if the link shows relevance to the phrase you rate it on a scale of 1-5.  $.02 a hit.

  • Tal Lev-Ami – This requester has a hit “answer a given question” not too hard, takes a little bit but the payout is decent: $.10.


Those are just a few if you know a few good more requesters comment on the blog and let us know! We all must share for the sake of money!

But lastly, I am sure people out there using Amazon Mechanical Turk spend a lot of time (wasting) looking for a good hit to do.  Well, if you have a favorite requester just look ‘em up!

One Cheap Dingle Intro - Welcome from OCD!

"I Guess I just have always been cheap and that’s what I enjoy being. "
I tend to pinch pennies every second of the day when an opportunity arises, and it brings a stride to my step.  Hours searching on internet sites looking for a hopeless romance of a job to come along and soon enough I could be a suit and tie man, purely get quick rich scheme.  It grew like my addiction did and when addiction got mixed with money, drugs were involved, many many drugs. 

Regardless of the past, I have moved on since than.  Grown up to be a new man.  And that makes me One Cheap Dingle.  I have researched, set a flame, physically abused, and self mutilated every strain of the internet and daily life for ways to put green in my pocket [money].  And for you I would like to present a comprehensive review on what I believe to be the most legitimate, easy, pick up and go methods on either saving or banking.  What method you may ask?  Well obviously blogging, as you see here but soon enough there will be video podcasts. 


The first article is coming soon,
