What is a good benchmark to make daily if you are just starting out. I don't have the fastest internet but I feel like I could be making a lot more but I dont know how

Revoke Reason: Sorry, there was a bug.

 

If you're just starting out, I'd say start with a small goal (e.g. $10) so you don't burn out and increase it as you go along. It also feels good to know that you hit your goal and when you go over it, it feels even better.

You also need to be aware that this is a numbers game. More better paying hits open up as you move along with your approved number. The first major difference you'll see if you haven't already is when you hit 1000 approved, then 5000, and finally 10,000 approved hits. These numbers are especially important if you're primarily a survey taker. Once in a blue moon, you'll encounter a closed qual that's actually good re: batch work and then you'll treasure that like it's a holy grail until the project ends because batch work is sacred (e.g., exports of good batches may piss people off sometimes lol).

Edit: Also make sure to stay above or at 99% approval rate because this also helps in terms of hits available.

I thought that was a good idea and then anytime it messes up they'll blame your equipment, no matter what it's always your equipment if you have your own.

I have to get new equipment soon and I'm dreading it. I've never once had an "upgrade" go smoothly (I'm sure they do sometimes, but for me? Never been lucky that way...)

I'm going to put it off until chit completely dies.

Yea one of my issues with it is if you have the gigabit service like I do, a modem for that is a DOCSIS 3.1, those are 160+ and then you'll need a router too.

 

$14.52 for the day. Feels like the weekend hasn't ended. I'm too bored and disappointed to go on. Time to go take a long break.

Fortunately I don't have anything fancy. Our 75 whatever service is enough for just the two of us. Everything is streamed now and he does all his homework online and piano lessons, etc., but with just two of us? It's enough.

I could see how adding just one or two more people would cause issues!

 

The thing is new devices are going to a tech called wifi 6, docsis 3.1 has that where the older ones don't...it's right now an expensive wifi tech.
