    Ok I have some general questions. I have been turking for around 3 years. I still consider myself amateur because I am not doing this but maybe 2 hours daily if even that. I average about 3000.00 extra money annually on here. I am going to be putting more time into this soon. I notice on Sunday there are a lot of peeps who make 250.00 + weekly. How many hours are you putting in and what are you doing to get that ? I would like to be at that eventually. I would love some advice if someone is willing to help me out.

    It's more about the times you are online, the closed quals you have, and the rate you can clear batches.

    I'm assume some of the sentences are correct? There will be some that don't need fixed?

    I put in an embarrassingly high amount of hours to hit 250 in a week. I do this full time, plus some nights and weekends....probably around ~60 hours of at least passively watching my computer for stuff to drop.

    I think that depends on WHEN you turk, if you have masters, if you are lucky, if you have a bit of knowledge how to catch them. If you have a work ethic that says I am not quitting UNTIL. I would say 8 hours a day.. and then jumping on for hits here and there. Diligently.

    Isn't that from failing captcha too much?

    My weekly goal is $350. I turk passively while I work my dayjob. And then I turk with full on attention after my dayjob. Numbers are probably skewed, but I'd said I commit 20-25 hours to turk a week.
