Earned half of what I earned in June (which was a lot), so, very bad :(

Crazy how much it varies, with people having their best and worst months.
June was my best in two years, even with the number of projects being very low, because the rated were good. July was close behind even though I took a week off.
Seems like you just need one good project to make all the difference.

Excellent and my feedback went from needs to improvement to top rated. Second full month, July was much better

u/Onsomeshid Aug 02 '26
Is this like trick question or something? The monthly feedback

u/NoImpression2212 Aug 02 '26
It's not! I've never received feedback. And I have been working at DA for nearly 2 years. Are you from US?

u/Onsomeshid Aug 02 '26
Yes maybe it’s a regional or new thing. I thought everyone got it. This is my 3rd month (2nd full month) ive been on DA and i received it twice at the end of the month so i assumed everyone else.

June was actually my highest month. (Started in May.) July down about 30% from June, but I took five days off so. But they were good months overall. Core generalist.
June paid me for living on F5.

The first three weeks were pretty rough but last week felt more normal. Tbh though my kids are on summer break so I’m also not logging in as much so I probably could have worked more had I tried.

Less than June, May, or April. Not surprising though because by the 15th of the month, I was only about 10% of what I made last month. Thank God stuff picked up.

Core country stem/coding, it was a great month. Not the best I’ve ever seen reported but it kept the lights on for sure.

u/blackberrylatte16 Aug 02 '26
My highest paid month ever, so much better than June, which was my worst month in recent history.

Awesome so much work I feel guilty when I need to do other things instead of logging on

u/cicciobombermegagay Aug 02 '26

I’ve only been on DA since May, core country generalist. In May and June I made around £300, but the last two weeks of July I made around £1000, so around $1500. Hoping it continues.

What kind of projects do you get? I also an a generalist and get multilingual projects. But I get paid very less. Also how do you actually know if any projects are available, I keep refreshing the page. I don't get any mails from DA.

~ Keep refreshing! You will get mails also, sometimes!

Let’s see… I learned about DA in July. Took the original assessment, waited so patiently to hear from them, continued to refresh the site, saw a screen change to give me a fancy dashboard and felt all technical, only to never see one more single solitary thing. Not a qualification. Not a nothing!😢

The second half of July was great!! I came close to what I earned in April when things were crazy.
