Update:

I've made enough online for my rent, a hefty credit card bill, and a small one. I'm hoping between now and the end of the month, I can make enough to cover a third credit card bill and my monthly hosting. I really only have a few days to make the majority of that because payday for my main earner (proofreading site) is on the 27th. After that, I'm hoping things will come through for me in the following ways:

MTurk:

I have over 100 tasks on MTurk waiting to be approved (or rejected!). Hopefully, some of those will go through a couple days before the month ends so I'll have time to cash it out.


Ping Pong (product research/testing site):

I have a few referral payments, but not sure if I'll receive it by month end. We'll see.


Proofreading clients

There's a slight possibility I might make something if a current client uses up their credit and pays an advance.



In the meantime, I'll just focus on making what I can between now and the end of the month.

I ran out of steam over the past few days. I'll still be working between now and the end of the month, but not pushing. Whatever comes to me comes to me.

I'm glad my PingPong payment came through this month. I wasn't sure it would.

I've been paid for my main proofreading gig for this month, so anything I've made (and will make) after that goes into next month's pay.

All that's really left for me to add to this month is MTurk earnings.

Saying that, there are a couple of days of the month left, so I'm open to a lovely monetary surprise or two. :)


I welcome a £535 finish, but it'd be nice too to end on £500 if £535 doesn't materialise. However, I'm fine if I don't reach that either, for I've done really well this month to make what I've made (compared to £361.75 last month).

Quick question! I have done a couple of tasks in Mturk but haven't really spent much time on it to decide if it is worth it or not BUT I saw that they pay in Amazon.com credit. Can this be cashed in an Amazon.co.uk account or would I have to use it in .com?

You can only use it via Amazon.com.

End-of-month earnings

I ended the month on £492.49. I came really close to my target of £535 and is the closest I've gotten over the past few months.

In September, I made £361.75 and the month before that, I made £206.54, so there's been a significant improvement from month to month.


November

To be honest, I'm not feeling the same sense of drive I felt last month. If someone knows where I left it, please let me know and I'll go and get it :p.

I do want to hit my target this month, though, so we'll see.

Update

My laptop hasn't been charging properly recently, so I hardly made anything yesterday. Luckily, a friend lent me theirs temporarily. I decided to rest through the day today, but I'm doing a bit of work this evening.

My total for the month currently stands at about £50.00. Some of that's from last month (rolled over from the 27th), a small portion's from MTurk, and the rest is whatever proofreading I've managed to do this month.

I did a bit of work on Saturday, but didn't switch the laptop on at all on Sunday. As such, I only made about £3.00.

I'm getting back into it today and have made £7.71 so far.
