Crowdsourcing

Hello Readers,

Tired of clicking ads on the PTC sites and can't see any sort of increment in your earnings? Read on to know how you could utilize the free time online and get paid in return.

The volumes of information available on the internet is sorted and grouped by dividing it into small 'tasks' often called as HITs(Human Intelligence Tasks). Crowdsourcing is getting tasks done from people, or micro-workers as they are often called as, around the world on the online platform. A HIT is a stand-alone task such as finding address on the URL provided, copying contact information from websites, searching a particular keyword, etc.

You log in to your account, check the available HITs and select the ones which are of interest to you. After you submit the task, it is verified and based on the required criteria it is either accepted or rejected. If your work gets accepted, then the payment is transferred to your work account. It is important to maintain the accuracy level because the chances are that you may get more work depending on your good performance and vice-versa.

Some sites pay the users if they reach the payout threshold whereas some transfer even the amount earned from a single task which can be as low as 0.01$. The payment is done via different channels with PayPal being the most preferred payment processor.
