<p>Amazon Mechanical Turk (Mturk)</p>
<p><br>Mturk was established in 2005. This platform is a website of Amazon web services, an online crowdsourcing marketplace with numerous users worldwide.</p>
<p>a) This platform is an ideal option for people who want to outsource their processes/work/jobs. These people are called &lsquo;Requestors&rsquo; as they create tasks to outsource them by accessing the global on-demand workforce. The requestor pays the worker once after reviewing the submitted work and approves the work if the worker met the criteria.</p>
<p><br>b) It is equally an appropriate platform for people looking to earn money by completing micro-jobs. They are called &lsquo;Workers.&rsquo; Mostly, workers are the ones who perform all the tasks assigned to them in their spare time to earn some extra money. Workers are also called Turkers, who complete the tasks assigned to them by the requestors and get paid after completing the tasks.</p>
<p>Becoming a member at Mturk is very easy. You simply need to register an account either as a requestor or a worker. Once the account is registered, it needs to be verified by Amazon. If Amazon finds your account a perfect fit, it approves them. However, it rejects in other cases.</p>
<p>It is witnessed in many cases that Mturk rejects the requests of accounts from various parts of Asia, including countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, Oman, etc.</p>
<p>Amazon Mechanical Turk is best known for providing its workers an opportunity to perform straightforward micro-jobs that can be completed within a few minutes. The workers get paid handsomely.</p>
